Glad that he is doing well but wondering if he should have been given more of a chance at City. Also see Pedro Porro and Frimpong

They may not have developed in the same manner had they been here.

But the answer is that we will never know, but I suspect the club is happy with how things worked out .

Good deal from our perspective and glad Couto seems to be doing well. Personally I don't think he was anywhere near good enough defensively. Vini JR absolutely destroyed him over and over again when I watched Girona play Madrid last year and he made bad errors in the other games I watched aswell. Good going forward and extremely quick, I could see him doing well in a side with wing backs, the 'Frimpong' role at Leverkusen would suit him down to the ground.

He's similar to Porro really but quicker and slightly less technical.

Rico Lewis says hi!

I am a fan of Lewis but think that he will probably end up as a midfielder. Another fullback will be needed soon as Walker will probably be leaving soon.
