Chelsea winger Hakim Ziyech has proved wrong their treatment of him after his performance against Belgium today in the national team. Hakim Ziyech has been a bench warmer in the team since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel and also Graham Potter. Both manager's ate synonymous for their park the bus tactics while attacking only on counters.
This means wing backs and defenders are the ones who benefit the most from the system. For wingers like Hakim Ziyech, it is poor performances that lead to him staying on the bench. The system at club level also requires players who run a lot and Hakim is not that calibre.
In today's match against Belgium, he had a goal disallowed in the first half but then got a goal contribution for the second goal. The player scored from his own assist. Hakim Ziyech was overally phenomenonal in the whole game. He was a thorn in the flesh for the Belgian defense. Morocco won 2:0.
