Country: England
Player:Saliba
I’m with @razörist. He made the most incisive and dangerous passes in the Rennes game. 2 of which should have led to goals.
Can see why people complain because he doesn’t track back a lot, takes a while to get into the game and he’s virtually useless in the air . . but he covers huge swathes of ground, creates space with the ball, guards the ball well and makes some exquisite passes.
A lot of this boils down to what the rest of the team is like. He is a luxury player, but man, what a luxury. So if the rest of the team is quality, this guy is the icing on the cake. If the rest of the team has holes, then would the money be better spent elsewhere? That is the question.
