I recorded the game so very much looking forward to catching up on it after reading that.

Apparently looked great against PSG with 100% win record in the league, yeah this one will be good.

Played more or less in a CAM/10 position according to the stats app I use (Fotmob)

Rating. 6.9
One shot
30 successful passes - 77% completion
18 successful passes in own half, 12 in opposition half
4 duels won, 3 lost
12 ball recoveries which is second only to PSG's CDM Danilo.

Judging only by numbers I'd say the kid can pass and press, which is an excellent sign.

very two-footed, which would be great in the Prem, and good pace and energy. But his passing in that video was pretty poor.
Certainly would need to sharpen the passing up in the prem. Learn how to play some little one twos. Looks very athletic, dynamic, reasonably skillful. A good base

Then that video gives a wrong impression, I've watched couple of games this season and his passing has been fine, better than the forwards he's passing to. He also doesn't lose possession easily either.

Hmm his first touch and passing really didn't look great in that video. But he's clearly very quick and physical and seems to be everywhere.

Hoping he's not just a lanky, fast Sissoko !

Yeah, well probably best not to rush to judgments. I know it's SC and all that.

I see no comparison with Sissoko.

The Sissoko comparison was tongue in cheek because of course his first touch was legendarily bad and his passing not much better :). He'll get plenty of time from me. Worth saying that he's in a bang average team playing against the best side in the league in this video
