He's captaincy material not saying he should be one but having natural leaders in the squad is always a blessing as you can count on them when the going gets tough, it also helps he's an exceptional footballer, to be so good under pep in your first season requires some doing

yeah fan girl, croatian bias, patronizing me when i posted facts and so on. it’s not even me, it’s all the comments made by football professionals all over the world about him. he was never average.

i don’t know if any of you noticed earlier in the season how strong mentally he is. shaky start at the swamp, error leading to a goal at stamford bridge, he didn’t fall apart he played better immediately after in both games.
aftet the argentina game in qatar he decided he’s coming home with a medal and caused hell in the opp box.

now he’s showing up game after game when losing isn’t an option.

Vanchi, I, along with Haaland94, was with you on Josko every step of the way. Love my brother from another Adriatic mother, lol...

Not digging you out here as football is all about opinions but I think we have an absolute star on our hands. 22 years of age, first season in the Prem and he has been our best defender over the course of the season.

I'm kidding mate. It was a pop at those, that are always too quick judge.
He's got the making of a world class midfielder, for me. Definitely don't see him finishing his lot as a defender. There's just to much talent in him for that.
 
I dont see why he cant play the rodri role in the future. He has a lot of tactical learning if he was to play there but he has the football skillset. Will be a superb cb Maybe the stones role.

Let’s hope Pep is here for a few more years and then we will be talking about the next strategic iteration…the Joško role.

all of us who believed in him, we should make a club or something. looking down with contempt at those who doubted optional. i don’t mind that though, my star sign is to blame, allegedly.

anyway, one of my title races ended today, dinamo are champions, beer’s on me.

if i die tonight, i’m totally hunting down and haunting the guy who wanted to slap
joško. serious business!
 
Unbelievable for his age. It is not hard enough joining a new club, but Pep is notorious for playing football at a different level and being hard to adapt to, but this kid has done that at the same time as learning a new position, incredible
 
Really strange player for me. At times displays outrageous talent and skill, particularly for a defender and at other times struggles to control simple passes. Hopefully just a lack of concentration which will improve as he gets older.
 
Not many on here now slagging him off as a flop now are there? It’s ok for them though. They can turn their attention to Nunez
 
This kid is just immensely gifted, isn't he?

First half of the season, he was alright, nothing special. Occasionally screams of a centre-back played out of position.

Second half of the season, absolutely immense. Looked so good with his right foot that you'd think he purposefully played with a handicap his entire career.

That transformation was just so quick, it's quite something. I think most of us knew he'd be good eventually, but don't think most expected him to be this good this quickly.
