Reports from the chap at work not so sound after yesterday, reckons he needs to 'beef up a bit', otherwise he'll struggle at a higher level, general consensus is that they are very impressed with him going forward, and he does love to get forward, but his defensive work is quite far behind.
To me, that's quite normal for a young full back I think.
It is one of the biggest football cliche's out there for FBs, 'good going forward but not great defensively'. I mean you're talking about a handful of elite few that can do both well.
Saw some of the abuse he got on twitter, horrible.
