A player who's completely focused and performing at their peak. When someone's locked in, they're not making mistakes, they're dominant, and they're unplayable. Internet term that's become common in football commentary. The opposite of a player who's distracted or going through the motions.
Rodri in 2023-24 was "locked in" - his passing accuracy, positioning, and ability to control matches reached a level where he was being discussed as the world's best midfielder, with no dips in form across 50+ games.
