A great squad player.
Just need to be smarter in the final third and he will reach Pedro's level.

His off-the-ball movement/instinct is top-notch.
Never close to Pedro's level. Pedro has everything. Fermin only has poaching skill.

Sometimes the right skill is more useful than a bunch of skills incompatible with your teammates.
It’s very strange, I don’t remember who the match was against, like against Sevilla, but in that match Fermin was simply perfect in terms of the first touch in any episode of the game (under pressure and without).
But in recent matches I have observed a monstrous technical defect in his game precisely at the first touch - often, at the first touch, he takes the ball on his near foot when he needs it on his far foot, or the ball simply flies away from him. I don’t know how he suddenly became so stiff.
But, as I said, Fermin offers much more movement, aggression, and goal-orientedness than Pedri.

We ran Pedri and Gavi to the ground. Balde too probably. To the point they are/were injured for half the time since promoted.
All very great in their breakthrough season and then declined.
Fermin plays less minutes and with less expectations. As youngsters should be when they are starting with 1st team.
Don't wanna shit on Koeman/Xavi for Pedri/Gavi/Balde mishaps, maybe there was no choice. Either way, we need to take it a bit easier and not overplay kids.

Not just overplaying, but media and fans expecting them to be equally important and responsible as some other way older and more experienced players. Psychological burnout too.

Yes yes, he can't do this and he can't do that. But what he can do is what a Barca midfielder hasn't been able to do for the last 15 years, and that's score goals worth their weight in gold like he has in the last two matches, and on a regular basis.
He is the Anti Pedri.
Pedri is like the most beautiful cam girl who teases you in to thinking you are going to have the time of your life and in the end doesn't even show you a titty.
Fermin is like the cam girl who has a face like a bulldog chewing on a wasp. However, she makes a dildo disappear quicker than you can unscrew your tub of Vaseline.
I know who I prefer.
