4 - Ronald Araújo

[God Serena]

small sample size but i'd say this guy is already an upgrade on lenglet. Faster, stronger, dominant in the air, can bring the ball out, can spray passes and comfortable under pressure. spending on garcia makes no sense.

Bringing Garcia makes sense because he's younger and probably a lot better. Not to mention Pique is on his last legs and we probably have room for both him and Araujo going forward, anyways.

He has been registered to be a first-team player.

I think the 4 is his now considering it's not being used.

I suspect they will save 4 for Eric? We will have one vacant number
Edit: They gave him 4 indeed

The big winner of the transfer window. Great opportunity for Araujo to establish his credentials before Eric the Defector returns.

He'll make his NT debut against Ecuador in one hour.

It is a good news Piqu? won't play. Araujo is quite good. He's going to show off against Juventus.

Show off only to be benched until Pique or Lenglet do something stupid again.

 

[Porque]

So far, as 3rd CB he is not looking out of place.

 

[Messi983]

Looking forward to see him playing vs Juve next week.

 

[soul24rage]

I'm hopeful that he gives a great performance vs Juve so he gets more play time.

We really need to phase out Pique now.

Did anyone watch his international debut?

Uruguay shipped 4 goals so I wonder how he performed.

 

[Messi983]

He should've done better with that last goal (the game was over by then though) but overall didn't really do too bad under circumstances. The whole Uruguay team looked dead tired from the start playing on a high altitude.

Very fragile for a man of his physicality

What the hell happened?
