Now this is the type of striker we should be looking at.

Look at that run, look at that finish.

Ignore for a second that the defender defended like Araujo and the goalkeeper reacted like Stegen. But other than that, a proper strikers goal.

He can do it when the weather is very cold. When it is very icey. Legend.

Great game for Tigrinho in CL, earned a pen, assist and a fantastic finish. Overall game has improved a lot, good link up and very comfortable moving to the wings too. He'll be back playing for a top club in Europe in two years while we will struggle to find a striker.

But at least selling him helped us with players's registrations. Oh, wait...

Roque himself needed that sale.
Guy had an absolute shitshow in Europe, part of it is from Barca, but even his marriage is collapsing.
He has essentially moved to Barca,kicked out of Barca, relegated to the bench in Betis, and lost his marriage, all in the span of 14 months time while he wasn't even 20 yet.
He needed that move closer to home to start fresh. He wasn't going to make it here regardless and selling him was the best even for him.

In a decade he can win Balon d'Or, like Dembele.

Sometimes we just too big of a club for guys like Ousmane, Vitor and Figo.

The goal is also a good reflection of why he didn't make it here.

-He is standing next to the last centreback for no reason is 2 metres behind the rest of his defensive line.
-Makes a simple, rather slow infact, check run to the through ball where said defender doesn't react.
-Scores with a rather poor shot where the goalkeeper for no reason (and judging from the first goal was either having a poor game or throwing the game) dives towards his near post rather than holding the angle.

So yeah, that's a goal and action that just won't happen in Europe.

That's a fair point having watched it again, but to be fair lots of mistakes and comical goals occur in Europe too. But I know what you mean.

I don't know of Roque much, never followed him, @Messi983 knows infinitely more about him than me. Just saying the video was nice.
