Rico Lewis

One of our own, but since he signed the extension, he got less and less game time, and his cameos were not the best.

At this point, we need to ask if he is good enough?

I think he will stay to have the english numbers, but, sadly, he will never be a regular in the first 11.

I think his down turn started last season and this has been more of the same. Until we’re bossing games against all comers again he won’t fully suit our system. He’s too small to battle against the teams that stand up to us.

Technically brilliant but he’s not a RB and he’s not taking Rodri or Reijners out the midfield any time soon.

Having said all that, he’s still young and seems a top lad and I genuinely hope to be proven wrong.
Tracking back is overrated.

He will never be a full back. He has positive traits but being a natural defender is not one of them.
So he's a midfielder, but competition is tough in those positions.

Personally I never seen what others did fingers crossed I’m wrong but like marmoush I don’t think he’s good enough to hold down a single position

Silva 1 and 2 are both slight. Not saying Rico is close to their abilities, but I always like him in the top third of the pitch. Think he would be doing better there than as a fullback. But the competition in our attack is very fierce.
