However, his comfort zone is right field profile. With Guardiola He has played up to five different positions: left winger (2), attacking midfielder (2), right inside (1), right winger (1) and center forward (1).
It is easy to overcome pressure lines in driving and it is a good haggler. His goal against Newcastle proves it, with a magnificent resource to get around Dubravka. He exudes confidence and personality and chooses very well when and how to attack spaces.. He is comfortable looking for the back of the defense on the outside or getting between the lines.
