He is very fast. Quite an athletic CB. I like him.

That's some speed right there. We need that from CB.

Folk used to make out he was slow as well..... built like a fucking decathlete.
If can back it up with steady displays Barca have something to build on.
Can start to see why Barca prefer him to Todibo.

i'm hoping he'll be the 3rd CB ahead of Umtiti next season
Ronald Van Dijk
That's the thing. I did appear slow in the B team.
But for sure he is one of those players that plays up to the level. Immense improvement since being signed.

He's surprised me quite a bit.
Garcia Pimienta has helped intergrate him and improved him once he got to Barca B. When he got to Barca B, his biggests weakness was undoubtably his ball playing ablities as he struggled with playing out the back, especially under pressure and there were times some of his teammates like even Puig got mad at him for it.
But two seasons later with the B team and training with the first team and playing some games, he's certainly improved a lot since he first came here.

tbh his ball-playing ability remains quite suspect. I don't recall a single forward/incisive pass from him so far.

As long as he can defend well and don't give away the ball stupidly I don't really care about that.

That is even faster than VVD top recorded speed at 34.5 km/h, damn the kid is fast.
Can't emphasize enough on this.
Should be over Umtiti now and clear third choice. He needs to play otherwise he will never develop. I don't see the point in making him fourth choice next year. Either you let him play or let him go on loan to play regularly.
Valverde rated him over Todibo and from the little we have seen, I agree. Todibo probably a better footballer overall, but Araujo a better defender.
