So funny to see everyone come around on Olmo when back when Gundo was leaving everyone was hating on Laporta and Olmo saying he would be a bust.

Anyone with eyeballs should have known Olmo was going to be as close to a lock as possible for being a great player for us

Myself and @Don Juan Laporta Estruch on here have always talked up Olmo, to be fair. I have consistently rated him over several years now. But I acknowledge that is because every time I watched him he had a great game.

I wondered if I was just getting lucky when watching him but apparently not - he is THIS good. But still, he must maintain this level and so must the team. Lots of work still to do.

Hope you are well by the way, mate.

Don was complaining about the signing the entire summer to be fair 😂.

But also to be fair, almost every on here was, bar a few.

Was he lol? I only joined/started posting at the end of June but I remember him being enthusiastic. I think maybe he must have came around, his positive posts stay in my mind.

As for me, as I say, I think I am lucky in that he always plays well when I watch him. Tends to be big games, too. Maybe I am his lucky charm :ROFLMAO:

I initially thought we wouldn't need him. I guess I was a little blinded by Fermin's spectacular Olympics. His quality was always undeniable, after that Euro especially but before too.

The truth is we can indeed work without him, but he makes this team soo much better. Fermin, Raphinha, even Pedri - all of them could fill his role. But none of them matches Olmo's class on that position.

The only area I remain skeptical about when it comes to his signing is his constant injuries. He is a fantastic player when fit, but "when fit" remains the key word. If his injuries stop or at least are controlled a little, which definitely can happen by frequently rotating him with a lot of quality we have on that number 10 position, then his signing is perfect move and those 60m huge bargain.
