I think he struggles with pressure. When the chips are low he opens up and plays woth freedom but when the lights are on he panics and smashes anything that comes his way. Idk if it can be cured. We shall see. I'll back him this year for sure.
He hasn’t had to deal with the expected pressure he’ll have joining a massive club like ours, you can get away with the odd lapse with his previous club but at Liverpool there’s not much room for error, so he’s well aware the pressure is definitely on, his rawness speaks volumes, he’s desperate to impress so when he doesn’t or makes mistakes the pressure builds ten fold,
There are plenty in that dressing room who will help him, Mo obviously, Jota, etc, it’s early yet but it looks like he’s a different animal already in pre season, however pre season game’s are not exactly a real test of his nerves, that’ll come in time, also,for the most part he’s played out left, slightly unusual/ unfamiliar for him, the change in system with him as a proper 9 will suit him to a tee, and again pre season thus far he’s shown signs of promise, holding up play and his relationship with Mo improving all the time,
Keep backup him mate, cos we got a beast, a beast once he has fine tuned his rawness will be every bit as dangerous as that blonde fella at Eastlands, Klopp don’t buy flops, I always look at the bigger picture, and his picture looks awesome 😁😁😁😁😁😁
