Real Deal
Alert Team
He has never been an out and out DM because of his weaknesses.
He is certainly at his best having more of a free roam position. His tackling stats don't surprise me. But we have to consider our final 3rd play is poor so we lose possession more than the better teams.
His lack of athleticism and mobility is an issue. It's a big reason teams cut through us so easily. It stops him being a top DM/CM.
I'm fine with him being a squad player. We won't get better for 15m.
But I feel Skippy is a better out and out DM who has a higher potential ceiling.
