We knew about his injury problems coming into this. Given that our midfield is going to be stacked im fine with having him only when he's healthy because he seems to be able to turn it on when he needs to. We have Casado, Gavi, De jong, Pedri (sometimes), Fermin , Torre and eventually Bernal...

Yup this is the perfect opportunity for him, team is playing well. Amazing front line ahead of him in all positions so has to come off the bench. Its all gravy with no real expectations. I don't expect him to ever live up to his current number but thats mainly because I don't see anyone but...

This is the best way to describe him. hes been amazing very much di maria moving to the midfield and carrying madrid to a CL vibes

The only way for him to be a starter in this team is as a long term replacement for Lewy when he eventually declines. For now having him as a servicable rotation player that can come in and start non-big games when someone needs rest is the best he's probably gonna get unless he actually is...

Who thought a guy we bought from Leeds would turn out to be our next great Brazilian player? 🤣

Damn I was just saying wow he did something good and the thing injured him.

Hansi even has him dribbling again, this is the player I was hoping for when we signed him!!

Looks good on the ball had a few good passes. I wonder if the position Flick was so mysterious about was a false 9 role? Feels like that would suit him best but who knows.

I don't think he'll ever be starting material for us I just think we may need to find the best position for him since he's stuck here (we have to finish paying city before we can sell him i think?). If he literally just gives someone on our frontline 10-15 mins rest whenever possible and...

Tbf he did get better as the game went on and he was playing through the middle more as opposed to on the wing. He may just not be a winger? May be worth it to give him more mins at CF/AM since we probably won't be able to get rid of him for a long time as is anyway.

I feel like he started to get rest too early after coming back, needs more time but I don't think he's lost a step physically more mentally. He completely switched off and I feel like didnt really start running until it was already too late.

I think Flick rates him but the issue is Kounde may actually be the best RB in the world at current form rn. With Kounde in there at Rb we not only have a competent RB but we also essentially have another CB to help out with our high line. Nothing wrong with. being a back up to one of the...

If he can't atleast get Ferran to be subbed off its over my guy is cooked.

Oh my god this man is bad. I don't get it, he might be cursed. I 100% believe all we need to do is switch Yamal / Raph with this guy and we still comfortably win this game.

I hope he gets time today... give me something please.

I think he'd work well in the AM/10 role, was always good in link up play though i don't think we'll be seeing many defence splitting through balls from him there. I think he can function on the LW in this system where wing play from the left isn't as important and he can focus on being closer...

Our best XI has him in it (I think he's definitely our best in the AM position) but it looks like we don't need our best XI to win games as long as no one gets a red card 10 mins into the match. :ROFLMAO:

he's basically that la masia you bring up in Fifa and give him game time every game and ends the season at 85 overall. Unlocking a new skill every game while continuing to practice hahaha.

Now we have another in the long line of successes in midfield that we've had since the days of Puig / Alena. Earned himself alot of mins tonight.

Really great player. How long is his current contract for?
