Nelson Semedo

Gotta see how he links up with Messi. Our link up play on the right flank was virtually non existent last season. One half of a game where he played with someone who should never play at RW for Barca doesn't really show what he can be. Hopefully next game he gets to play with Messi.

Semedo:

"I've been a Barca fan since I was little, I always liked them."

"It was Ronaldinho that influenced me because back then I was playing as an attacking midfielder and he was, no, he is my idol. I watched all his games and he had a massive influence on me."

Still reaping the benefits of Ronaldinho :)

Too early. Gomes has had plenty of chances plus he's slow as molasses.

Semedo has better speed and technical skills.

He needs time. Preseason is not the time to get on a players case.

I don't think he has really played in this kind of set-up before so of course it will take some time. It must be especially difficult to get used to being the only Barca player on the right flank when Messi pushes inside. I am sure he will get more comfortable, especially as he learns the language and understands instructions/systems better.
