Suso might finally be living up to his potential

It wasn’t surprising to see an AC Milan winger make the cut but most people would agree that Suso should have been chosen ahead of Gerard Deulofeu. The latter has experienced a brief period of productivity since joining the Italians in January but Suso has been the standout performer for some time.

In Vincenzo’s Montella’s young and developing side the burden to produce moments of magic falls firmly on the former Liverpool youngster but he’s embraced the challenge whether it be from a right wing or number 10 position. The diminutive playmaker has scored six goals in Serie A and provided eight assists in all competitions but what’s striking is who he’s notched against.

Four of his six goals have come against Napoli, Inter and Lazio while half of his assists were against sides in the top half of the division proving his status as a big-game player for the Rossoneri. Having represented his country from under-17 through to under-21 level, Suso’s fine form could easily have seen him make the leap to the senior squad.
