I don't mean he loses the ball more. But once he's gotten the ball forward, quick to release it and with no Busquets and Pedri there, we often fail to recycle possession. Hurts us a lot.
That said, he does well to progress the ball, plays a lot of passes in the middle to keep the ball. Has nice qualities, but to get the most out of it, Koeman needs to come up with a setup. Hasn't done that yet.
I agree. That's what happens when you have a fast mover and quick passer amongst players who need time to move their ass from position to position. There's a lack of sync which can cause disruptions.
But the solution is not to bench Puig and use Lenglet, Pique, Busi transversal ax. It is to integrate faster players, like Mingueza, Araujo (injured now I know), De Jong less advanced and more concerned with providing a proper quality build-up.
