20 - Dani Olmo

[Raketa10]

This season? Been like that since January

He had a few good games during the second part of the season. He is definitely much worse at the moment.

I prefer Fermin and even Raphinha on his spot.

Sell


He looked gassed and slow 2nd half of season. I had PTTS to forum de amigos snail football.

I feel like barca is moving more towards having a more physical team and finally adapt to modern football. Olmo looks like 2010 type of player to me.

Not to mention injury prone.

Looks to play like he never had a summer break. Should be looking like this final months of the season.

Has no lungs. Does he smoke?

It doesn't work like that. It's not like every player is Yamal and will immediately impact the team at 17y of age. Flick is not dumb and he probably knows that these boys are not ready for this level. He watches them train every single day. Throwing random B players that are not ready on the field will never be a solution for anything. This is real world football not FIFA.

They probably aren't ready but it's worth a try in this situation, what's the risk? I don't think they can be much worst than Olmo but someone could surprise. Worst case scenario they play shit like Olmo but still benefit from the experience. At least for 30 minutes so we can rest Olmo, he's not able to play 90 minutes.

It does match the eye test(average rating from the past twelve months from sofascore):


Performance keeps dropping and dropping

He started out very well, then few injuries and worse and worse.

He is basically hiding during the game and doesn’t offer passing options to FDJ and Pedri to help relieve pressure. When he gets the ball, he either plays a poor pass, stumbles or goes down under slight contact. He is essentially non-existent on the pitch and too timid.

Anyway, with some injured players returning after the international break, there will be more options and some time on the bench might do him good.
