Vitor Roque (loaned to Real Betis)
- Thread starter Porque
- Start date
Every striker misses chances* (Kane for example has been hilarious recently - still on course to a record breaking season). "Killer instinct" is a bit of non-sense. You will break down top strikers on how many they get a season despite missing a bunch. Unless Roque becomes Timo Werner or something.
*with the exception of Messi '12.

Can we merge him with Ansu please.
Still time to turn good. But you don't want to be building up alot of "bad debt" by consistently missing these chances, that when your in the position the whole crowd groans and expects you to miss. Like with Greizmann here or Werner at Chelsea.
Very hard to recover after that sets in.

Yeah, true. So far he scored the goals he "shouldn't have", and missed all the easy ones.
Still early though, and I approve of the fact that the manager is taking it easy with him and lets him settle with minimal pressure.

The mark of a good striker is getting in many positions to score. With these players they usually work it out with time.
Once he gets confidence up and starts feeling out the new environment (Laliga GKs are probably much harder to beat than Brazil league GKs) the goals will flood in.
Remember he is very very young at 18 and its rare for the striker position especially for players to be already top at that age. Strikers usually mature a bit later and most teams have older strikers.

Just needs to get his shots from now on as striker. Rest Lewy when the chances present themselves.
Yesterday was an easy home game that was solved with alot of time to spare. Next week we have a tough away game to Bilbao meanwhile three players were a yellow card from missing it. Araujo, Lewandowski and Cancelo.
Araujo and Lewandowski stayed on for the full match while Cancelo exited on the 84th minute.
Unnecessary risk from Xavi, while also a missed opportunity for Roque only getting 13 minutes, and at right wing at that.

I will support him and hope he succeeds and all, whilst also acknowledging that, so far, a lot of the time he plays like a Youtuber in a charity match.
It is what it is.

Says the guy, who hasn't earned the right to coach a top club, but was gifted the gig for reasons and failed spectacularly. .

I don't mind him not starting, though I really hate that he keeps on playing with Lewy on the field. Really hope he gets more game time going forward.
