He defends well for the most part. Going forward,he ghosts past the opposition and might have whipped in a few more balls. I think he has intercepted a fair few balls too. He's rarely caught napping and clueless like Gibbs. He's just less dynamic than Bellerin. Gaya would be an ideal replacement but I think that ship has sailed.He probably looked good because he didn't make mistakes, but he didn't do any hitgets either, he is risk minimizing but not opportunity maximizing
he tracks back but never really catches people, he goes forward but not really past players
he marks but he never really steals the ball
