And in the match he scored two he outpaced the defender into the box to shoot and should probably have scored. He’s no Vardy or DCL and he‘s got areas where he’s undoubtedly weak but I don’t think pace is one of them.

...as I’ve said, he comes alive in the box or when the ball is played over the top, but he otherwise meanders through games.
 
Haven't seen the comments but wonder they mean not quick enough as in running or not quick enough as in thinking. It's one of the major differences when stepping up to senior football, there's less time and space and if you haven't already decided what you're going to do before you receive the ball the chances are you'll lose it immediately. It's why some people that get raved about as juniors never make the step up, it's not their technical ability thats the issue it's their footballing intelligence.
