I was lacking confidence,&#8221; he recently stated. &#8220;That said, I\u2019ve been back in a starting role these last few games and I hope to come back strong to help the team.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Looking full of confidence and tucking into his work with conviction on both sides of the ball, he was a real asset for Robert Moreno&#8217;s men.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Defending in an attentive and proactive fashion, Ballo-Toure was alert to runners in behind, when he had to crossover a marking duty with backtracking colleague Stevan Jovetic or a central defender and step out with authority to chime in with a vital intervention. Helped by his searing pace and acceleration, this meant he could track runs reliably or recover his position to support his backline, with Montpellier&#8217;s attackers unable to beat him in a foot race.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Needing to get his positioning spot on to deal with the threat of Montpellier&#8217;s attack, he did precisely that. Making quality decisions whether to tuck infield and support his central defenders, step out, shift across, drop back or when to press in order to stop opponents from turning him or executing their crosses passes freely, Ballo-Toure rarely made an error.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21875\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-1-Getting-touchtight-to-his-man-so-they-cant-turn-or-control-smoothly-1024x561.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-1-Getting-touchtight-to-his-man-so-they-cant-turn-or-control-smoothly-1024x561.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-1-Getting-touchtight-to-his-man-so-they-cant-turn-or-control-smoothly-547x300.png 547w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-1-Getting-touchtight-to-his-man-so-they-cant-turn-or-control-smoothly.png 1385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image 1 &#8211; Getting touchtight to his man so they can&#8217;t turn or control smoothly<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21879\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-2-Smartly-shifting-across-as-his-centre-back-steps-out-1024x569.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"569\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-2-Smartly-shifting-across-as-his-centre-back-steps-out-1024x569.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-2-Smartly-shifting-across-as-his-centre-back-steps-out-540x300.png 540w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-2-Smartly-shifting-across-as-his-centre-back-steps-out.png 1385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image 2 &#8211; Smartly shifting across as his centre back steps out<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21883\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-3-Great-decision-to-leave-his-post-to-apply-his-tackle-1024x568.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-3-Great-decision-to-leave-his-post-to-apply-his-tackle-1024x568.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-3-Great-decision-to-leave-his-post-to-apply-his-tackle-541x300.png 541w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-3-Great-decision-to-leave-his-post-to-apply-his-tackle.png 1375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image 3 &#8211; Great decision to leave his post to apply his tackle<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Looking a lot more composed than he has in the past while undertaking his defensive duties, the former Paris Saint-Germain and Lille starlet vitally transferred this into his offensive efforts too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Providing width and depth to the Monegasques attacking forays, Ballo-Toure made full use of the space available to him on his flank.

Aside from embarking on these dynamic upfield runs along the touchline, his underlapping runs were another feature of his game, where he interchanged positions neatly with Tiemoue Bakayoko to unbalance his foes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21895\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-6-Wicked-underlapping-run-after-switching-with-Bakayoko-1024x568.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-6-Wicked-underlapping-run-after-switching-with-Bakayoko-1024x568.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-6-Wicked-underlapping-run-after-switching-with-Bakayoko-541x300.png 541w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-6-Wicked-underlapping-run-after-switching-with-Bakayoko.png 1375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image 6 &#8211; Wicked underlapping run after switching with Bakayoko<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21899\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-7-Neat-overlapping-run-after-rotating-with-Bakayoko-1024x564.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-7-Neat-overlapping-run-after-rotating-with-Bakayoko-1024x564.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-7-Neat-overlapping-run-after-rotating-with-Bakayoko-545x300.png 545w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-7-Neat-overlapping-run-after-rotating-with-Bakayoko.png 1393w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image 7 &#8211; Neat overlapping run after rotating with Bakayoko<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once in possession, there was much to like about how he used his dribbling and passing to generate some promising scenarios for his team too. Using his pace, acceleration and agility, Ballo-Toure&#8217;s ball carrying saw him embark on some sharp runs, with his chief weapon being how he knocked the ball beyond his man before reaching it first to fire in deliveries into the box.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Striking some incisive crosses and cutbacks, it was great to see him remain balanced despite being under pressure to hit some accurate, well weighted balls into the area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-21903\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-8-Lovely-cross-into-the-box-to-find-Ben-Yedder-1024x570.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-8-Lovely-cross-into-the-box-to-find-Ben-Yedder-1024x570.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-8-Lovely-cross-into-the-box-to-find-Ben-Yedder-539x300.png 539w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Image-8-Lovely-cross-into-the-box-to-find-Ben-Yedder.png 1371w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image 8 &#8211; Lovely cross into the box to find Ben Yedder<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ballo-Toure accompanied the aforementioned with some fantastic through balls in behind and into the channels, as he obliged his teammates&#8217; runs tidily. Measuring his passes so they were usually struck ideally for his colleagues to latch onto, his slick distribution was an additional highlight.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\"

performance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Improving all the time and looking the goods especially since Moreno took over the managerial reins, the

it&#8217;s taken time for him to truly prove his worth, all the signs are positive that he&#8217;ll be locking down the left back slot for many years to come at the French Riviera based
