He's got decent pace, that won't be a problem.

How good is he? Im not sure he is better than Dinho
On last seasons showing he has to be, and he's only 23 so you can't expect him to be at his peak yet. I suspect it'll be like having a 13/14 season Dinho back in the side, and he can learn from the man himself.
Considerably better than the Fernandinho we've seen this year.
Also a much better passer and much more naturally suited to the hybrid RB/Midfield role Ferna has been playing.

No he can't. And he don't enjoy it anymore.
Tho, that can be your number 1 argument for sign him. He want to play the world cup more than anything, and since he's not call as a midfielder (don't ask me why, he is one of the best CDM in europe), he want to give a try at RB once again to play the world cup.
Tho, you'll be dissapointed if you look for a top RB.

This would be an excellent signing.....I see him as a 9 years younger vision of Fernandinho! Excellent on the ball, solid DM and seamlessly slot into RB position when needed. Pep likes smaller squad and this guy is excellent at both DM and RB. I dont see any downside to this signing. He's a quicker, strong vision of Fernandinho and can score a few goals as well.
If we could start our summer signings with Fabinho, Walker and Ederson.....we'd be reducing the age of our squad greatly and becoming stronger, quicker in the process....Just need to add a LB and keep Kompany healthy and we'd be looking alot stronger for next season

How good is his technical ability on the ball and his passing?

He's a great signing because of his flexibility. He could play CDM, RB and even a CB in a back three.

So he could do a role like Kanté in the PL for us? If he has got that kind of energy and pressing game in his locker then lets get him, he'd be right at home with Dinho, Jesus and Nando (if he stays).
We have a Brazilian friendly dressing room at the moment and Argentinian to boot... we need to nurture that for the future IMO.

Awesome passing skill, and good at keepin the ball vs one, two or three players.
He like to go between the two CBs to be the first player for build-up when he's CDM. He's accurate, strong, and really strong on 1 on 1 defensivly. He's a bad RB mainly cause he got trouble on defending someone who past him without foul trouble, or, when he play RB, on switches.
Tho, he worth every € you'll put on him.
Never injured. Doctors told that his body is realy singular, he can repeat a lot of efforts (?) without being injured, and recover faster than the average.
On his pace: He's not a fast player on the true term, but does hudge steps. So he can take everyone on the first meters.
He's the perfect player for Pep. I'm pretty sure he will really go HAM for Fabinho.
Breaking the lines :
Passes :
He's the first one here :
Overall :
As a right back :
And of course : 18 penalty made on 19 attempts.
Looks nostalgic while everybody enjoy the title.
Bakayoko talking about Fabinho. Interview made today : He's talking at the past.
It's probably 95% done.

Seems to be a good fit for Pep's description of a team "physically strong with fast and good headers and still playing the way he wants"

Most likely Yaya's replacement and starting DM over Dihno. Not my first choice, but a good player. Younger, taller, more physical version of Dihno.
Wait! Is Walker a Mendez player? And if not, who is the 2nd player you are talking about.
They do kinda look alike :p

Very well put mate. Hope it's true, our mid is crying for a player like him.
