Collado, is this the guy supposed to replace Trincao's role from last season?

I think they look very similar in more than one way.
Collado has played MC a bit more and has a better shot/touch but is maybe less of a dribbler and a bit slower?

lol@speculations again. Ridiculous!

Demir looks class but is another of those "no fast enough to be a winger but not a midfielder either" like Trincao.

Balde is so good for 17 years old, his off ball movement and passing is pro. He'll gain strength and speed when he gets older as well

This is the anti-Bobo32 opinion.
His positioning is OK but consists mostly of staying wide and being fast enough to get involved, his passing doesn't impress me at all.
If he gains speed he should focus on Bolts WR:s tbh.

About Riqui he has sparks of quality but he tries to force final balls with almost every possesion, man needs to relax.

That's where most comparisons with Messi end, who's an incredible athlet.

The comparison is relative to his NT , for them he has potential to be their "Messi"
Doubt it is meant for new Messi for Barca.

I think we fall in love with those guys since Iniesta, the D.Suarez, Arda, Coutinho, Trincao , Halilovic & Pedri.
Iniesta was great, Pedri looks great for his age. Up to Demir to show us he is versatile rather than tweener

Any word on Mortimer?

edit: They say he's usually an inside winger on the right. Maybe explains why his decisions seem a bit wonky today.

Demir just doesn't strike me as a midfielder. So a bit of speed would be nice. He doesn't need to be wicked fast to be fair. Haven't seen nearly enough of him to put him in the "bad" winger/playmaker bracket though. (like Kubo, Collado,...).
