The young right-back is a promising player for Los Blancos but, as shown by Girona on Sunday, if he’s pressured he will make mistakes. He only lasted 66 minutes in the shock 2-1 defeat and had a pass success rate of just 73.9 per cent, compared to the Champions League clash with Spurs two weeks ago, when he completed 89.8 per cent of his passes. Mauricio Pochettino’s side allowed him to get forward and occupy a higher position, up against Jan Vertonghen at left wing-back.
Tottenham’s performances against Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid in the Champions League this season proved Tottenham can change their game and get results.
