Think that's harsh. He played well with Almiron and Wilson in the 433 before ASM took his place. I know it was only a couple of games, but still.
What's apparent is he needs someone like Almiron, or Wilson to play with. You can't stick him out left and think he's going to do ASM's role.
Shades of Sheffield United today. 4 defenders, 4 Centre mids, him and Joelinton.
