Danilo - 2017/18 performances

[Bluster]

I thought he was decent and progressive with the ball. You can see why PG bought him.

He made himself very small for their goal though. I would like to see him be braver than that.

 

[Gabriel]

Thought he was okay yesterday, but I've yet to see us put in a performance where both fullbacks are equally threatening on either side; yesterday, Mendy looked more of a threat. A few more games and they'll all be up to speed.

 

[Mike N]

He had a decent game yesterday.

Wonder if he can do a job in dinhos role now walker and Mendy are fit? Has the engine and the passing range to be very good there.

That would of cut him in half if that had hit him.

 

[NorthamptonBlue]

I have really rated him from what I've seen so far. He does take the extra touch a little too often though.

Early days.

Yes, but he didn't know that when he turned his back.

Hahaha fuckin hell

I was wondering the same thing. But perhaps Pep would be reluctant to start him centrally given that we have only 3 real fullbacks (Dinho's role as fullback just doesn't seem to be working) and an injury to Danilo could prove very costly.

Wouldn't be the first time Pep played a RB in that role though, but overall I think Phillip Lahm was way more composed when he filled in that slot. Plus, not sure that kind of formation and type of play would work in the Premier League?
