Can you understand why though? I mean what's in Kulu's game that's not in Bergwijn's etc? Aside from whatever position the coach might see as Bergwijn's best etc?
I think Bergwijn has a similar problems to Lucas
- Kulu murders both of them re physical strength, he simply doesn't go down under tackles/pressure (I think it's the #1 reason he's been an instant success in the PL)
- The other is he stays wide, he uses the width of the pitch, Bergwijn naturally drifts in earlier.
- And lastly has been the link up with Kane/Son, I don't know if that's football intelligence, but he's immediately been able to find those two guys regularly
I think Bergwijn is a good player, but where he's best, we simply have better options which in turn limits his ability to improve.
Be interesting if we were willing to keep him another season and start him in at least the domestic cup matches and see if he improves further.
