27 | Matheus Nunes - 2023/24

Even disregarding today's performance, I've found the criticism of him bizarre. He's been injured a lot of his time here, but when he has played, I've thought he's looked good. A bit rough around the edges but far more good than bad. His ball-carrying speed is ridiculous.

Energetic and great driving with the ball. Looks to get in dangerous positions. Missed a sitter but he's a player and will just get better.

He excels at all the difficult things and needs to work on simple things. I like that he is at the heart of everything. He created that 1st goal for us, and pretty much the 2nd as well. I am not worried about him at all. He just needs to improve his first touch because sometimes he is a bit careless, but otherwise, he has a very-high ceiling, IMO. Well done, Matheus, another great performance overall.

I think he is a project in progress……doesn’t look like a typical Pep technical player and he can be quite clumsy with the ball….but Pep has obviously seen something he likes.

I think he’s an interesting project and I wish Pep would stay longer to see him and a few other of the young ones through for a few more years.

Very good tonight. Very positive signs.

Yup, he needs to keep his concentration up and ensure he does the simple things well time after time. KDB had that issue at first, not that he has De Bruyne’s ceiling but there’s plenty there for Pep to work with.

Much more good than bad today, which is much more the split we'd all like. Keep it up young man!

 

[Withnail]

Very encouraging performance and he offers some different to the team. Shame he didn’t score, but I think he will bag a few before the end of the season.

Showing signs of settling in. Hopefully more minutes to come.
