He came on when we were already losing 2-1 to forest.

He went off when we were 2-1 up vs Chelsea.

Genuinely our lucky taIisman considering we were losing for fun before January. I do think there's something about his pressing and link up play that just makes us a 10x better team than without.

    He is more than a talisman, I think he is a genuinely good player. I see him as a Fornals-type. Not amazing or flashy, but a tidy footballer and a hard worker.

    his work rate is great, he pressurises opposition defenders and helps create space for others

  3. I’ll die on my hill here.

    Pablo is so important to us.

    His pressing, positioning, game awareness is of the highest quality.

    Technically he’s good. He’s clearly not used to the pace of the prem but I don’t think he’s struggled, despite not scoring.

    I kind of don’t see him at this level but also capable of producing mercurial moments like the flick on for Taty’s goal. He reminds me of Antonio in a way; an engine of chaos, simultaneously baffling and beguiling opponents.

  5. He offers so much out of possession. Shadow marks great, presses well, works hard, wins aerial and grounds duals. It makes a big difference
