I have been banging this drum for him to play centrally for a while
All great points and he was fantastic today I have to say BUT plying devils advocate we do say this type of thing about him too often and I’ve said many a time he DOES need to work on/improve his finishing and final ball etc as he gets in so many good positions but is a bit wasteful.Go watch the highlights again. Deki is at the heart of everything good we did today. Two shots inches away from scoring, several near-assists, a tricky flick that put Gil in on goal (if anyone was “frustrating in the final third,” it was Bryan), held the ball up countless times.
On another day, he scores two and assists two.
You’d think I’m crazy to say Deki walks into almost any Premier League side, so I’ll limit my praise to saying he is undroppable in THIS premier league side.
