Certainly didn't look that way when he sped by Kompany on his way to making that goal saving challenge on Azoyes at the end or earlier in the half when he got the slightest of touches on the ball forcing Cabella ( I think ) to blaze over. Showed remarkable speed and agility in both them instances.

That said, that position at City is a nightmare for one reason.....Ya Ya.
He is a managers dilemma. His genius wins you games. But his languid approach is always likely to put you on the back foot. If he doesn't do the business. Pellers has to grasp the nettle. Not to beat Swansea and Hull. But if we are aiming to win the league and particularly the Chumps League, I predict this will become an issue.

Watching games on youtube etc when we were first linked with him, I commented then that he looks like he could play centre back. Whether he can keep the required concentration for 90 mins I don't know, but he seems to win tackles & headers & cover very well.
