[Dialog]

SPECIAL, SPECIAL PLAYER

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

A lot to love, but Pep isn't going to love him losing the ball unnecessarily as much as he does at times, and I don't mean when he's trying to create a chance, but when he's doing simple things. He alluded to it as much after his rabona assist.

 

[Blue and true]

Lad is wondrous. Can't believe we got him for £30m, it's borderline criminal.

 

[pudge]

He's a player for when we're 2-0 up, that's the best way to describe him I think

Get a load of this ****

Wait

 

[tackeds]

What a goal! What a bargain! Happy days.

 

[Chak19]

Wonderboy.

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

What a player.

Not saying he’s a better player than the likes of Kev but my god he’s more exciting!!

A joy to watch.

 

[oldius]

A special talent. If he reaches his ceiling, the world of football will bow to him.

 

[skillman]

Outrageous footballer. Has everything you need.

Can’t believe we got a free run at him. Got to give props to Viana for getting it done with minimal fuss (it was done in June!).

Can’t wait to see how he fulfils his potential. The ideal profile of player we needed post-Kev. A spark of beauty and creativity.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

He's going to achieve amazing things alongside the likes of Phil and Erling.

 

[Don Karleone]

We've got a fucking gem

 

[Phil1]

A lot to love, but Pep isn't going to love him losing the ball unnecessarily as much as he does at times, and I don't mean when he's trying to create a chance, but when he's doing simple things. He alluded to it as much after his rabona assist.

Raindrops keep falling on my head

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

He said when he signed that he wanted to win the Ballon D'Or, and believed he could do it here just like Rodri.

I thought, cocky bastard. He'll have to come back down to earth before Pep can get the best out of him.

Erm... maybe he was right.

 

[Gumzy97]

Said in the summer we’ve signed one hell of a talent. Enjoy him he’s ours. Lyon have been up and down he’s never had consistency when developing, first season last year with Lyon he had consistency and showed his best ever season.

Now he’s here under the best manager in the world, at a stable club environment he’s just going to continue to flourish. Both footed , technically brilliant.

 

[jollylescott]

For all his outstanding individual play, he's given us the added bonus of bringing the best out of Phil.

 

[mike1923]

He’s a maverick. Fully anticipate a Pep meltdown when one of his backheels leads to a counter attack goal but let’s enjoy him in the meantime

 

[Mid Wales blue]

Forget about his unbelievable talent, today he showed his commitment to work hard and close down/press even when he wasn’t backed up.

 

[bluemonkey71]

Oh la la. French maestro

 

[ninjamonkey]

"Get your own fucking celebrations". - haaland tonight, probably.

Pretty quiet game really overall but a really special strike to make the difference. Said the other day he's got to add goals to his game, and there you go. More of that please lad.

That goal had the benefits of being two footed on full display. I dont know why more professional footballers arent two footed, it shoukdnt be that rare at that level, it makes the world of difference. kids in academies should be playing games with their weak foots.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

A lot to love, but Pep isn't going to love him losing the ball unnecessarily as much as he does at times, and I don't mean when he's trying to create a chance, but when he's doing simple things. He alluded to it as much after his rabona assist.

He was fine with KDB doing it. If the rewards outweigh the risk, then Pep will let him do his thing.

He loves players that “open the game” for him.
