I would still expect a winger/wide playmaker to do more irregardless of his suroundings.Guiu was poor upfront. Felix had a bad game too, but I don't think he had much to work with.

He's a bum. Thank fuck it's a cheap loan.
No, he's not that talented. His technique is just inconsistent. Plenty of bad touches. If he was technically brilliant he would be better than this.The perfect example that football is ultimately played with your brain.
This player is greatly gifted and talented, and yet his lack of success can only be explained by the fact that he's just not very bright.
So intermittent and unreliable.
He has instances every game he plays where he showcases exceptional technique. How does someone's technique turn on and off like that, does he have concentration issues?No, he's not that talented. His technique is just inconsistent. Plenty of bad touches. If he was technically brilliant he would be better than this.
This post of mine pretty much sums him up.It's pretty simple.
Not an exceptional dribbler. Not an exceptional shooter. Not an exceptional passer. He's a bit of everything.
For these kinds of players to succeed at the highest level, you need immense Football IQ, maturity and mentality combined with consistency. Like Thomas Muller.
Joao lacks all of the above which is why he'll never be an elite player.
His level, long term will be Europa League club level or a starring role at a proper mid table club.
Portugal will win the Euros. Felix will play an important role, as will Cancelo.
See y'all in July.
