His first touch is exceptional…..he doesn’t kill it dead under his feet, his first touch makes sure the ball is where he wants it for his next touch and he’s also got a very good technique of manoeuvring his body whilst applying that touch. You’d think this would be a given for a professional footballers but it’s not, many kill the ball dead (many don’t) and then have to turn and get the ball from under their feet.
And at the risk of sending @Thurcroft owl 72 in to a tailspin, he’s got a little bit of Cantana about him, the way he holds himself - and to clarify….a little bit, not more than!!
