surprising to me, he was 4th highest in distance covered on the stream stats..
seems to be like rafa in busying himself and stealthily covering ground
he's like a busy **** letissier. had to laugh when he checked his dribble and took 3 markers out of the game..
I'm never surprised by these stats. As an attacker you have makes dozens of runs to make room for yourself or others. And when you close down in a pressing game you have to cover ground, a lot of ground. Whereas as defenders are normally already shaped up to defend and have to occasionally close down 5-10 yards of space, and full backs don't have to work to hard to find space in attack.
