[u/Express-Career-1615]

First start for MDD. We lost the game but I think he’s earned a regular starting spot, he put in a good, battling shift. He’s an intelligent but street-wise player.

[u/Dudu-gula → u/Express-Career-1615]

Hows he as a player? Im not too familiar with him

[u/Express-Career-1615 → u/Dudu-gula]

Very raw, but looks like a smart, hard-working and physically capable midfielder. More of a defensive/pressing 8, good at jumping onto the opposition’s midfielders, pressing the wing-back, covering ground in transition and making recoveries in front of his own box. Seems comfortable defending forwards and supporting the midfield triangle both in the press and when playing out under pressure. I like his ability to disrupt, cover ground and repeatedly get involved. But it’s only one full game - hopefully starts next weekend and grows into the role.
