His only problem is, just like halilovic, that he thinks he has to dribble through 5 players everytime he gets the ball. If he looked up first before starting to dribble he'd be immense.
That gives you a hint about barça fans. Adama is just a kid with great potential. Calling him a donkey is out of bounds.
Adama is soon 20 and not a kid - besides, we're discussing his future in the first team already next season. If he can't take such criticism he better quite professional football altogether. Sry if you feel that was out of bounds, I take it back - but that doesn't change the fact that he only takes the ball and runs at goal every time - he will get destroyed by the first La Liga defender.
He may not make it for Barca but straight up lying about a player's abilities doesn't help you make your point. He has great technical abilities, not like he kicks the ball 50 feet in front of him and just runs after it.
Let´s put him in a La Liga team and check that.
What that video doesnt show is that Adama tries to run like that every time he gets the ball.
If something amazing comes off every one or two games but for rest of time is not effective for team it is not good enough.

Players earn the right to play at first team level. Very rarely do they get thrown in just to see what they can do if there all round game is lacking at a lower level.
Lying and lying... Being subjective about something is not lying. It's like me saying I don't like Celine Dion and you say "stop lying, she's great". Anyhow, I said he's kind of technical - no doubt. He's made it to Barca B after all, no small achievement. But the next step is to big. Like Jam said, some people at the club hope he will couple his raw ability with some football intelligence - but I wouldn't hold my breath if I was them.
He showed quality in 2n division. This season the team is a mess. It´s more difficult to show the same quality in those conditions.

The best Barca players came through B teams far worse than the one Adama is playing in.
Also you could take the view that B team are in such a mess as the players have been poor...among those are Adama.
But would he dare to do the same in the first team? Youth Players are usually cautious with their first team chances, and try to play it safe. He wouldn't last 20 minutes on the pitch doing that with around.

Saying, "He's not going to make it at barca" is subjective. Saying all he does is run forward is a lie. We agree on the fact that him making it is far from a guarantee but if theres one thing the kid can do its dribble.
