Helped us so much in the 2nd half, very good pressing.
2 goal contributions in his last 3 matches. Could have scored aswell. Don't think people realise what a talent Willock is and the upside he has. He's a nuisance for other teams - competitive, strong, dribbles past players, is generally a more vertical player than our other midfielders. He just needs to bring his game together a little but once he does, he'll be a problem. People have slept on Willock a lot and now he's starting to positively impact matches.
He's more competitive than Nelson at the moment - Nelson is just lagging a bit behind the others, so he's gonna have to work extra hard to get his minutes.
He will have to adapt because he’ll be spending the majority of the time ahead of the ball under Arteta, even when we eventually move to a 4-3-3 formation. Just look at KDB and Silva under Pep.All the coaches he’s had here seem determined to turn him into some sort of Dele Alli player, number 10/second striker. He looked much better in his earlier appearances deeper in midfield, he’s not good enough with his back to goal to play higher up IMO.
