He was awful when came on midweek v Girona also. Could not even do the basics.
Swaggers about like a top top player at Barca and comes across as arrogant when see him around games.
Maybe these La Masia players know how protected by club they are and held up in a different way.. punting one as a wake up call may not be a bad thing.
Who would have thought not being able to pass or cross the ball well [consistently] would come back to bite him in the ass
If i were him I'd bust my ass learning how to cross and put in a decent through ball for my winger. Instead of dribbling into dead ends just to pass it back.
Makes some people help realize just how much are we lacking in quality and how constrained Flick has been with no ability to make signings. If Arabia Cancelo is this much of an improvement I can only dream about what would be possible with a decent budget.
Practically every place in last line is easily improved plus the striker.
That's half of outfitted team right there.
This kid really needs to raise his level and he needs to do that NOW. If this level of Cancelo is an improvement over him than Balde is definitely playing for the wrong club. This season could really be "make it or brake" it for him.
He's one of those players we would never look at if he played for another club. He's here because he's La Masia only. I see no difference to Semedo. Good players but not enough for a top club.
Idiotic behaviour in the clip for no reason other than probably being frustrated how useless he is for the team and him realizing the clock is ticking for him.
Hopefully Cancelo plays 90 minutes in the next game.
Like many weak minded ones he started believing the hype. Became "gangsta". Peaked at 17 and is now glaringly inferior to a guy coming from Saudi league.
Said a year ago we could pick randomly and blindfolded any La Liga lb and odds are we're improved.
