Three goals in his last four La Liga games.

Getting better and looking less petrified!

257 Liga minutes in 2017,3 goals and 2 assists. Contributed in a goal every 51 and half minutes. He has been improving and he might prove to be useful player to have

Paco is not a bad player, It's just he doesn't get enough chances and the pressure is quite big on him to perform.

Won't be surprised if we keep them both. It's a complicated situation we're in. We have too many 'jack of all trades, master of none' players in the squad right and need some specialists. It's great to have versatility in the squad, but not at the cost of quality in certain positions.

Keeping them both might be exactly doing that, I would prefer keeping one and adding a back up winger.May be Gerard. If we played 4-3-3 I would say Neymar/Suarez/RW starting and Paco or Munir (prefer Paco tbh) and Deulofeu as subs.

All the histrionics and hyperbole about how awful some of our players are rubs me the wrong way. You can argue about whether Alcácer was what we needed, whether he was worth the price we paid, whether he's adapting to our system, his current form, etc., but all this gratuitous bashing of players is ridiculous. Alcácer is not a world class striker, but has played for the Spanish NT several times and has a pretty impressive scoring record. Getting so little playing time isn't easy, and most competent players would struggle in this situation. Get some perspective, guys.

I've followed Barça for a long, long time. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. I watched Barça fans bashing Xavi and begging the board to get rid of him by the end of 2007-08 because he was "mediocre". All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

Played very well coming in from the right wing. Very different from how he was playing from striker.

Although I still far prefer Munir.

He's improving and adapting despite not playing as much. When we first got him he wasn't mobile enough and the game just passed him by and the chances he couldn't hit a barn door. seems like he's slowly getting the idea how a Forward should play at Barca.

I would like to see him play a bit more on the RW. with Rafinha hurting his meniscus in his knee and Arda injured as well, it certainly wouldn't be a bad idea to let Paco have a run of games on the RW.
