Alen Halilović

[anguy]

Good move. Hopefully he has a good season and displaces Iniesta next season

He won't. Completely different player.

He won't. Completely different player.

He probably won't because Alen is more of project and probably will take 3-4 years to be Barca starter (if he reached his potential)
But he plays same exact position like Iniesta tbh .he is AM who can be used as a wing from time to time .obviously every player is different than the other .but if he ever became a starter it will probably be in Iniesta position

Hope he does great.

Good move for him. Hopefully he will get a lot of chances and takes them.

Kid needs to hit the gym and give his all.

Hope he does good.

Unlike Real Madrid in Mascarell loan to Sporting, Barcelona did not include "clause of fear" in Halilovic loan. He can face Barcelona. [ec]

I don't think a left footed player should ever play on the left side of our midfield. Rafinha looks really awkward when he's been there too.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Great deal! I hope Alen works his ass off so Abelardo has no other choice but to play the kid. I trust in the coach and really hope Alen will be able to show his talent.

 

[EdmondDantes]

Great loan for him. Let's hope he's given a chance.

 

[Richard.H]

Great loan for him. Let's hope he's given a chance.

I agree it's a good loan. I think he'll be given plenty of chances in Gijon.

 

[DonAK]

He seem to have picked up the language quite well!

 

[serghei]

I have a lot of faith in this kid. Hope he won't disappoint.

So now that he's settled at (for?) Gijon and apparently taken the time and effort to learn the language quite well, how does that fit with the narrative that a lot of you guys seem to have concocted (mostly through random rumors about a father that perhaps or perhaps not wanted Alen to play ChL), that he's the most spoiled and arrogant prat ever to wear Blaugrana?

Anyhow, I for one am a little excited to follow him in La Liga, despite the absurd amount of flak he's been receiving in here.
