Isaac Cuenca

[Flavia]

He's been practicing for a few weeks now. I don't see why he can't make a short substitute appearance soon.

He can't because he's not discharged from the medical team yet.

Ah ok. I wasn't aware of that. Hopefully he'll be ready soon.

 

[Galning]

It is done. Release him.

[Flavia]

Great news. Maybe he'll get some minutes against Osasuna.

 

[Daemul]

[DonAndres]

Let's see him take over for Pedro against Osasuna

Not sure about that tbh ,kid gotta a game,he is one of the best in moving w/o the ball ,very high IQ and tactical abilities and better finisher than Alexis or Pedro (right now) ,he was actually rated as much better player last year than Tello foe example ,Tello improved much and he is important now with his abilty to change pace of the game that I might think Cuenca won't get minutes
but with way Pedro & Alexis playing ,and Villa seems to have many injuries and being moved to the bench ,Cuenca has good chance to get into the rotation

Plus Alexis and Tello primarily are played on the left along with Iniesta and Villa. This leaves only Pedro and Cuenca on the right. Obviously most of our wingers are adept at either side but Cuenca has played much more on the right and he can rotate with Pedro.

Agree.
But thing is, Tito seems to play wingers that are badass at defending (probably why we don't see Villa play often) and I'm not sure about Cuenca in Tito's system. Iniesta doesn't have to be a beast at defending to the same extent because he practically never looses the ball, make bad passes or almost any mistake (something that can't be said about Sanchez and Pedro).

Well Cuenca is like Iniesta in that respect. He can do for the right side what Iniesta did to the left.
