21 | Sergio Gomez - 2022/23 Performances

He is a good footballer no doubt however never a full back in a million years.

What do you class as a good fullback?

Is Cancelo a good fullback?

Hahaha this lad has been almost faultless in his cameos so far, and the minute he makes a mistake the clowns jump on him

Give it a rest the lot of you, upset because things haven't gone perfectly for the first time in a few weeks

That is just so not true

 

[chris85mcfc]

That is just so not true

Couple of small positional mistakes mixed in with an assist and some good all round play

The lads been with us a couple of months, it's a massive step up in quality, and anyone with half a brain will give him at least a season to see how he improves

Unfortunately, it seems those are few and far between on here tonight

Am I in the Zinchenko thread in 2020?

This thread is groundhog day experience.

Compared to Gomez, he is Cafu.

Gomez is a very talented player, but very inexperienced and lacks most aspects of full back play at the top level.

It may well come, but he’ll only play at full back in easier games or as a sub in games we’ve already won.

I would like to give him some time. Best to buy a senior left back in the winter window and Gomez fills in the sub left back + midfielder rotation role. Cancelo + Walker 2 right back options.

Too early to judge yet. Clearly he’s been brought in as a prospect and as cover. If he develops and turns into something better then fantastic.

Absolutely and I certainly wasn’t trying to dig him out. He’s raw and learning a new position as well as moving country and learning Pepball.

If Cancelo got injured badly, I doubt he’d be in our starting 11 very often at the moment.

TBH he made plenty defensive errors in his previous cameos. His defending quality is not up to PL fullback level. The more he plays, the more he will be targeted.

But it is not his fault as he only plays as a wing back for one season.

The real question is why we sold Zinny before securing a fullback.

Because Zincy couldn`t attack and couldn`t defend. He was however ok at dropping into the midfield role Pep Likes his fullbacks to play. Unfortunately he wasn`t good enough to play in the midfield role before any of our other midfielders.
