You might be right. It's a common theme that players have to toughen up for the PL.From what little I’ve seen of him he looks much too lightweight for the PL. Not vaguely impressed yet. He will toughen up with game time in the Championship
But if, and Ayari obviously isn't there yet, you have a lightweight who is a baller like Gilmour, then maybe he needs to stay a lightweight? An Iniesta type of player.
Mitoma is another, although not the same position. He is so elusive. But against that, we piled the muscle onto Trossard in the same position.
We seem to like players who are small, nippy and with a low centre of gravity. Just an observation. I know there are exceptions !
