For me he wasn’t comfortable last season probably wondered what the fuck he had let himself in for and was on the wrong side of the divide. When he did play he looked like one of them players with high technical ability but was too soft.
Now AL has managed to wipe out the divide, with some incorrect caualties imo, when he did get on he seemed to have picked up more of an edge but had nerves and tried to hard.
Now, small sample size aside, he has got a fellow #frenchlad alongside him with both bite and ability, seems more vocal and is always one of the first over in goal celebrations. Then he wiped out his nerves with that goal (which may not have happened if people got on his back after he shot twice from corners) so l expect him to just get better each week now.
Plus I’m biased cos he has done the biz for me on fifa for two years now.
