Always doing something positive with the ball, what a player, absolutely incredible!
He’s with a much better coach now.He looks so different to the version that played for Juve. This guy is so good. The level of intelligence he shows is such a breath of fresh air for our attack. Kulu is so young too so only going to get better. We have a real gem here.
it's lovely to watch the skill and ball retention!Ridiculously good now. Just does not lose the ball.
He does have a good footballing brain. He makes good decisions off the ball and seems composed on it.
However he is not an upgrade on Lucas. They are different.
He looks better against a bad team such as Everton (defence line doesn't even look PL level) because he gets the time and space to play.
Against a better side with fast fullbacks, who gets tight on him he may struggle.
Lucas on the other hand thrives on that kind of opposition.
Reminds me of Kane sort of.
Kulu has played in a midfield 3 as a forward thinking box to box in the past, and to good effect too. However, a traditional number 10 I doubt it. For a few reasons.Yeah its really pointless, would be like: "Why is not KDB more like Coman
Kulu will in time develop into a pure 10 role, but for now and as many other 10s have done before they start on a side because to play as a central 10 you really have to mature your game on all fronts, look at Modric, the first year he started off as a wide playmaker, Kranjcar did the same, Draxler did the same and KDB played as a wide playmaker at Wolfsburg. As you say, can we just appreciate the talent and then only time can tell.
