I have tried to explain this on here in the past but it seems people are still struggling to understand tactical players because they see primarily the game through data / focus on the ball. https://twitter.com/babuyagu/status/1168553246983671808

Which means for tactical players, you will always struggle in assessments of them.

Lijnders "For me, the difference between a good player and a top player is that they can solve problems before it becomes problems or they can solve problems in many different ways."

As fans, we don't see Gini solving problems, because we don't see him doing so. There is no dramatic last ditch tackle or mazy dribble to open up space - he does these things by movement. Movement to close space that they could exploit, movement to create space for a pass.
