    How many times do you see Kyle Walker get beaten in a genuine 1v1 situation like that? Mitoma’s dribbling is a meme but his conclusion from that paper was about exactly this, unsettling the opponent with subtle movements to make the act of going past them the simple bit.

    Probably too late but Jadon Sancho at his best beats people in similar ways but his whole United career has seemingly failed to commit to it as a strategy like Mitoma does.
