What's the wait? Kounde is in bad form, Eric mainly play as CB. Give him a chance if he's so good.

He's certainly got the tactical acumen way ahead of Fort for example.

The B fullbacks, Waffles and Xavi, should both be bled into first team dynamics slowly this season. With the level of the majority of LaLiga, it should in theory be barely an inconvenience.

Out for 2 months. Did he also train with the first team regularly now?

Now is the time to debut him. Idk how good he is but don't know how many other fullback prospects we have

Hansi Flick: “When I watch Xavi Espart play (in training), I like his confidence on the ball. He reminds me of Philipp Lahm.”

If he can free us from watching Kounde week in and week out (eventually), I'm sold. Lahm is high praise.

Seems like astute player. Shame they always need to put monkey sounds as a background noise in these kind of vids.

So basically another non-athletic Barca fullback who is good on the ball?

Decent cameo. Got stuck in a few times and kid handled the pace relatively well for the little time he played.

Looking forward to seeing him involved much more in the final stretch of the season.

I didn't see much but what I did see was good enough for what we should expect from our academy kids

Get him involved now that Kounde is out and if he performs well when Kounde is back too. Because the fashion designer is too relaxed maybe he needs a reality check from la masia

I've liked him for a few years now but never was quite convinced the shift to RB was going to work out for him - we'll see if this Sergi Roberto experiment succeeds
