Nelson Semedo

[hulinat]

Hes being ignored so hard. Probably Neymar talking shit about him with his boys. Fuck i hate that guy

 

[BBZ8800]

Of course he does little he is fucking ignored most of the time. How do you want to see what he is capable off if when a 1-2 arises and he makes a run behind the defendres the recieving player does a 2 meter pass back instead of playing the 1-2 with Semedo. I swear, people expect him to take on 2 or 3 players everytime he has the ball at his feet. Only then he shows something going forward. Fecking Digne recieved more passes behind the defenders and he s no attacking genius either.

Players play with him on training grounds every day.
He probably sucks a lot on trainings (being exposed there) or is scared or something.

Playing matches is not the only place where players can show what they are capable of.

Also, now after seeing how teammates are ignoring him, maybe there was a truth in rumors from August when some Twitter accounts were reporting how our senior players are not happy with a purchase of Semedo.

There has to be something on training grounds which we don't see.

Ernesto don't like him too much.
Teammates are ignoring him.
Yet, we fans think that he is a real deal.

There is some missing link in this story.

You shouldn't believe everything you read BBZ.

Like seriously I know you are hard on young players but if Valverde didn't like him he wouldn't be playing simple as that.

He was pretty good tonight and aside from a poor cross he didn t put a foot wrong.

I mean, not even Alves was recieving a pass on every run but being ignored for 90 minutes is something else.

Valverde still thinks Rakitic or Luis Suarez add something positive for the team. Do I have to not question why they re played in almost every match because Valverde and the other players like them?

His fouls were stupid though.

I actually thought Acuna dived on most of them. Sure he has to dial back a bit on some of them but tbf Alves was pretty similar. In time I m sure he ll learn when to go for it or when to back down. Overall he was great on the defensive side imo.

A yellow, misses the next match

That's good

Are we going to pretent like Valverde isnt going to start Bob anyway?

There are some extremes with this player on this forum

we've been playing about 2 games a week and he plays every other match rotating with sergi roberto.
but apparently that's bad for his confidence so people are suggesting he has to play every single game sometimes 3 times a week for his confidence?? is he a mental midget?
no one deserves messi's play every game treatment unless your a goat like messi.

now suggestions that the team ignores him and that's why he's lacking in attack? like really? OKAY might as-well sell the whole team to accommodate nelson's fanboys who will pass the ball more to nelson.

Nobody suggested that just because he is ignored he is not good in attack. The suggestion was that he can't show if he s good or not. Might be as shit as douglas for all we know. Fact is, tonight, he made some runs and the players who had the ball decided to play it safe with a pass bacwards instead of testing him. You can t come to a conclusion that he s shit going forward from that.

Keep it down with the fanboy accusations you paragon of balanced, objective perfection.

 

[Barcaman]

He definitely has potential. His calmness and athleticism at the back we all witnessed.
Problem is with him going forward. Alba benefits from Messi who knows his overlapping runs by heart. Semedo doesn't have that for now but we'll see what will happen once Dembele returns.

 

[jairzinho]

Is he really suspended for the next game?

Or is it that yellow card accumulations are waived at the end of the group stage ?

 

[xXKonan]

Yeah he's suspended and I think the cards get wiped out if he didn't get the yellow.

either way going by the pattern it's not like he was going to play in the R-16 leg.

Should have been our first choice right back, Valverde destroyed him.

 

[JamDav1982]

If being rotated has 'destroyed' him then sell him now as doesnt have the mentality to be at a top club.
