Karim Bellarabi

He doesn't seem the type of scoring a lot of goals
 
For me he's fairly unique as a winger owing to his size & strength, many fleet footed ones tend to be easy to bully off the ball but not Karim

Well he´s a bit hit and miss though... Crossing and finishing aren´t his strong suit. But he has pace in bags and no problems beating a man in his full stride..
 
Great dribbler and the knock on his crosses are short sighted since he's key in a great majority of Leverkusen's scoring chances. He's simply not your prototypical winger that hugs the flank and crosses them into the box which is fairly one dimensional
 
His decision making is way too erratic for a 25 year old winger (soon 26) to ever make it at a bigger club than Leverkusen in my opinion. I'd be surprised if he can match his last season stats again, when he was still a bit of a surprise package. He's way less effective this season now that his strengths and flaws are well known. He's a nice addition for a club of Leverkusen's stature because he's on his day a great dribbler and versatile attacker, but he shouldn't be anywhere near the German nationalteam and he won't make it at a club like United.
 
Good skillset but the brain of an amoeba.
 
Do not want. He's 1 dimensional from a lot of what I've seen of him. And that 1 dimension isn't remotely good enough to let that be an exception (Robben).
