He ain't no Tony Daley.     Beat your man at least with your pace.

A winger with no pace and can't beat his man.  :(

Trouble is, they're both flakes; certainly don't deal well with the close attention of the opposing fullback. And, both are very left-foot biased.
It may sound a little desperate, but Duran looks a more likely starter for his physique and pace (and the 'unknown quantity' factor).

The really frustrating thing is that he spent most of the Leicester match on the floor the minute anyone went near him.

Today he had a chance to go down after KDB dangled his leg out, but this time he stays on his feet and loses control of the ball.

No stomach for any sort of battle at all.

I'm tired of hoping he'll grow a pair.

He’s , very sadly ,not  good enough to start.
Sub? Maybe. Impact player maybe.

He can’t beat a man.Which as a winger isn’t great.

And to look like he’s been shot by a sniper when his first or second touch lets him down , or god forbid he’s tackled, is beginning to grate.

Use him as a sun and hope his 1 in 10 improves.

Lost all faith. High ceiling, not capable of hitting it often enough.
