He is there as they couldnt afford anyone else to back up at LB.. they couldnt even promote Valle and the salary it would take to do it.

Plays a lot more than ideally would want because Balde has physically most demanding role in the team.

To be fair to the lad he has been bit better recently.

He's looked way more solid the last few months compared to start of the season when he was a complete terrorist.

If he could learn how to throw a proper cross he would be a perfect backup.

He improved but we have to bring somebody in the summer. Imagine Balde gets another long injury, it would be a disaster.

Could it be that Flick saw in him something we all missed. Hard to judge against a team that barely crossed the halfway line.

Looked solid especially with the ball.

He has a future in the league at least if/when he decides to leave. I'm sure he can attract some interest in teams that are challenging for EL/Conference league spots like Betis.

Good game, but a single performance is not enough to judge. What I liked was his Dani Alves level of confidence to take shots from the edge of the area.

He is a better passer than Balde thats for sure.
But good game, hope it elevates him enough to get interest and we can fetch some good money.

Noice.
