More worrying signs imo. Plays like a less talented Neymar. Somewhat closer to Robinho. Needs to snap out of this playing into his comfort zone.

He makes almost no runs. Wants ball to feet to do his thing with it.
We are all a bit harsh as he is only 18y old and we probably expect too much from him. However, I agree there is a room for improvement. Another important thing for his development is that club and people around him need to stop kissing his ass. He is not Messi and he sholud not act like Messi on the field.

He had some great runs where he showcased not just dribbling ability but even better pace with the ball and strength to knock down defenders.

I like what I saw from him today. I think he is continuing to evolve. It's been said a million times but it's worth reminding people that he is just 18. He needs at least 3-4 more years before he brings every facet of the game to a top class level. Even then his proclivity is to dribble, drisrupt and create - not run behind the defense and score goals.

But his talent is mesmerizing.
0:35 insane change of direction. 1:12 Look at the darting pace, almost balde-like. 2:10 & 2:37 Look at how he rides challenges and invites physicality; this is something he avoided before.
