He's been given fuck all time of late, but in my opinion he's looking much fitter, yes he gets pushed off the ball, other plays have had that issue too but with bulking up should come good.
He looked puffed in the first season after 30mins, atleast he looked ok yesterday with the fitness aspect.
He needs to be trained to shoot/cross/pass instinctively with the right foot, too many times yesterday he wanted to always get it on the left... I too think he needs to be moved more centrally, behind and to the right of the striker.
