He is a very fast player, capable of playing from the back especially from the right flank which he is very dangerous. He is good with set-pieces; corner kicks, free kicks. He is not really good defensively because of the offensive play but also has Van Virgil Dijk to provide cover for him.

He is a good reflection of modern full-backs able to go upfield, provide some offensive plays, and get back quickly to provide cover. TAA is young and would only continue to progress in the game.
