VIDEO: Lucas Moura vs Roma


A 4-1 victory over Roma and the commentators were raving about Lucas Moura. He had to re-learn the defensive side of his game to fit our system so wasn't used much last season. He hadn't been used much by PSG when we bought him in January so this summer he really is like a new signing.

The video below is of Lucas Moura against Roma. He was on the field for 82 minutes and his involvement with the ball was 4 minutes 41 seconds. In other words, his game with the ball was 5.37% of the time and his off the ball game was 94.63% of the time.

That is the same for all players roughly so it is clear what they do defensively and what a player does off the ball is just as important as what they do on the ball.

What a player does on the ball can often blind people to a game that isn't up to scratch off it
