He certainly looks very composed and clever. But, speaking of players he is supposed to replace here (Coutinho and Iniesta), he's not on that level of talent and skill. At the beginning of their careers, Coutinho and Iniesta perhaps weren't as consistent (although context has to be taken into consideration). Former was struggling with form, and latter still wasn't confident enough to impose himself on the pitch. But you could see why they are different class when they would occasionally simply glide past defenders. I don't see it with this player.
