I think he is very talented in terms of dribbling and ball control but in recent times whenever former footballers are asked about future balon d or contenders,his name is always mentioned but he is 23 years of age now and still he is not a starter for man City ,his best position is up for debate(rw or advanced 8)and while he has put in some good performances for city I have not seen enough from him to say he will be a future balon d or contender consistently. He seems like Bernardo Silva level player to me which is a very good player but not a balon d or contender(consistently) player.He also resembles him in style quite a bit.

    He could definitely be a balon dor contender… I think if the team was built around him like ot was for messi we’d see a different animal altogether bit sometimes I feel pep has the reigns on him and has him playing to help the team more so than the team helping get the most out of him as it was at barca
