Good performance, a few mistakes in 1st half mostly because of the pitch conditions but was really, really good for most of the game.

Good to see Flick taking him out earlier as well. He needs more rest and I still believe he is the biggest threat in our attack.

Also ridiculous assist output this season. He is on course for overtaking all time record for assists in a single La Liga season. Unless an unfortunate injury comes his way, I trust him to do it.

No, no and no

Not sure if we watched the same game at all

All of it.
Given that his abilities are few tiers above the abilities of others, even a game he gives 20% can look good, but it's not.

Very bad attitude, lazy touches when on the ball, bad decisions,

looked like he was bored to play

When was the last great game he had? Maybe Betis for Copa?
I can't remember another good one after that

Gradually, reality will dawn on all soon.

Look I'm not sure if you take into account the fact he is 17 when saying that. What you might perceive as "bored to play" might also be "fatigue" considering he plays full 90s every 3 days at this age. But I had the exact opposite impression, he was really willing to do a lot and was trying to make us score.

It's not fatigue, if that's the attitude from min.1'
It is clearly attitude.
Might be he has less motivation against smaller sides, maybe he is too complacent now that he knows he is a certified starter and the face of the club in the future
Who knows

Whatever it is, it has to be cut RIGHT NOW, and not let this attitude linger and grow, because there are tons of examples of super talents that got wasted just because of that

He's not ready to live in those central pockets yet. Much better when he receives it out wide and gets creative. Plus that gives us the width we lacked in the first half with him lurking centrally.
