That’s fair. They did counter a lot and he was able to sit and collect the ball, before releasing it or using it himself.
I still think he was a bit lazy with Madrid too. I always felt with a bit more effort he could have been world class and remembered as an all timer. But for me, he just never reached that level enough and that’s why he was great but not world class. (I say world class as top 5. I don’t like using the word for every body.)
