He has trouble adapting. He broke his nose so he plays with a mask on. And he has to replace depay and that aint easy. But the coach and team are patiënt with him so he Will adapt and impress soon enough I gues. How do you rate him ?

hes good breh, but he is very different player from Depay
hes very tall (over 6ft), left footed, powerful running/dribbling and he can play as a #10 or as a inverted winger cutting in from the right (which is where im assuming he will playing in PSV), so in other words his style is very European and he should adapt just fine. his finishing for a youngster was top notch and I think he will do well out there, I hope he gets called up to our national team by the beginning of next year once he gets more games for PSV

They're a noveau riche team that hadn't played in Europe before so the have a low coefficient so they keep getting the group of death

Fernandinho and Yaya not enough against the top sides that control the midfield. It took Arsenal/United some time before they figured out that they wouldn't be able to overrun teams in Europe by sheer physicality. Watch Kompany against Barca and him rushing out leaving gaps to be exploited by their forwards. The worst was the 3-1 in Pep's first season, they went in with 2 strikers who were not helping at all in midfield and could not match Bayern with Lahm,Kroos,Ribery,and Robben overloading them. Playing in the UCL exposes teams to different styles and strategies that teams have to adapt. Suarez and Cesc have been quoted as saying in England they get far more space than they used to in Spain because once you overcome the first wave of pressing all sorts of spaces open up.

No group of death but Wolfsburg and the away fixture at CSKA won't be a cakewalk
