"Yes, he looks very, very good. A very compact player plays close to his body, has got a good very still he. So balance is very good when he's playing. And, of course, when he play drives like that. Left-handers can be so elegant when y play, y can play pull shot as well. But basically his temperament and talent are very, very nice,"
