I just wish we don’t pile pressure on him.
Some times, talented players lose their way when given too much responsibility. Below are a few examples:
Bruno Fernandes
Went from young talent to know a Sunday league level player, conning his way through man utd
Molinaro
Massively talented but given too much responsibilities
Pjanic
Showed glimpse of talent at Roma, only to become an unknown individual shuffling his way between juve and barca as a transfer pawn.

Incredibly useful player to have in a squad, starter or not. Hard working and very good one-on-one. Really good in tight spaces and not a one trick pony, which makes him hard to defend against. There are a lot of things he could improve and he may never be that one that curls in goals for fun but he makes the team dynamic and dangerous. As long as we have others that score goals (AMD, LW and striker) then I don't see any issue with that. My gut says his point/game will reduce from now on but that he will still be a protagonist out wide that delivers danger from there and gives more room for others. Since he needs to stick fairly wide (as Motta wants but his "small frame" needs) he also fits with someone like Cambiaso who likes to go inside. Having Koop there too, I imagine he may be given more proper chances to shoot from distance.
Neither of our wingers are world class. But we have a healthy competition if all could be fit, which might help Motta to play those in-form rather than selecting by past merits. I am not sure Conceicao will ever be a world beater but he is really good in the function he performs.
And please don't ever play Cambiaso as a winger again. He is currently our best player and shines the most when deployed from deep as a roaming defender.
