Cannot understand the criticism, he’s just a kid. Training every day with Xhaka will do him more good than a loan.
Deserves a run in the team for the rest of the season on current form.

Spain one was in the u19 Championship but was England u18. Riggy captained England to a 1-0 win against Poland.

The lad’s done really well in the last few games, and more than held his own in the derby. I hope he gets himself a strength and conditioning coach in the summer, and pushes on next season. Confidence is massive in football, and it looks like Riggy’s is growing with every game he plays.
No one is getting carried away.
It’s more of a case of posters being called out and rightly going overboard with criticism when the lads 18 and is learning his trade.
He’s played a grand total of 6 games in terms of minutes in the PL and you’re saying he’s had 3 good games.

Just redressing the balance from your typical claptrap. I'm doing anything but getting carried away about him.
So, a young lad who is improving, and been one of our best performers in high pressure games very recently.
Not all young players progress at a regular pace.
The lad is playing mid table premiership football against, and with, some top quality players.
Very promising from what i see.

Of course he needs it, he’s a professional athlete. You don’t get better by not putting the work in. Football’s a young man’s game, taking care of your body now will help stop it breaking down so easily.

You need to watch a different game, sport or read a book.
Best not to comment on something you know absolutely nothing about.
Unless it's a wind up post as it's that stupid - in which case i admit to being whooshed.

"When a player like Granit wants to play with you it's a good sign of maturity," said head coach Regis Le Bris.
"You need to earn the credit on the pitch. It's not about speaking, it's on the pitch.
"Riggy came from this period when he struggled and he wasn't so composed on the ball, so when you give the ball to a teammate and they turn the ball over quickly, sometimes you won't receive a pass for 30 minutes because you feel intuitively that you won't give the ball to this teammates.
"Now it's totally the opposite and he built this during the training sessions with his attitude and resilience and character.
"It just shows players need time and it's a really good example of our identity."

He's saying Rigg needs to continue to work on his physical shape to get stronger. Seems obvious really.

There is a reason RLB kept Rigg and not Dan
