Just realised he is actually Arthur Morgan.

Goated King.

Serious question: Is he just a world class Footballer now or is it just a purple patch? It's very strange for a player of his age to suddenly turn into a monster. He's 27.

On current form it would be impossible not to call him world class.

But he needs to do it 2,3,4 times then a couple of more times for it to be confirmed.

Current form, Yes.
Overall, No.

He is a world class player now. It's not a precedent. It happens sometimes with late bloomers. Sometimes a player needs a final touch, a position modification, confidence , or something as little as that to tap into the full potential.

Think he just found his best role.

He has clear instructions: press, make runs in behind, link up from time to time, and whenever there's a chance, shoot. Very much like Pedro.

Put him in a worse team and he'll be pretty invisible. He's not your 'normal' winger who is asked to beat defenders 1v1 and create magic out of nothing, we have others who do that. Instead he completes the other (different) players in a perfect way.

Whether he's WC or not, in a functioning team he is, but in isolation there are better players imo.
