Looks like he has loads of time on the ball which he won't get in the PL

Maybe a slower league would suit him

The Uruguayans are taking their sweet time closing him down/pressing him

Fred is Xhaka Xhaka is Fred just their polar opposites in their height and athleticism has disguised the fact that no one has actually noticed it

which bruha did this :picard::dahell: ?

i heard a good explanation as to possibly why pep wanted fred. in a pep's team he would have been running, tackling and short passing only. we are asking him to dribble, long pass, create etc which he cannot do ..

Didn’t he just create right here? I think it all comes down to coaching :yeshrug:.​

:mjlol:

Kind of depends. US development wise some people would say we need more individuality/skill.

To keep it real those type of players are dime a dozen. Anyone who grew up playing football knows or played with those type of players. I can go to Goals (5 & 6 a side pitches in England/London) and I can see amateur ballers do that.

Go checkout Jeremy Lynch world renown freestyler The F2/F2Freestylers. Who claims he was at Arsenal when he was 15 and Wenger said he was the best on the ball player at the whole club and this is including players in the Invincible Team. Has never played professionally at all. Highest level he got was semi pro non league at the age of 28/29.

They are in England but not here. Organized soccer here is almost too structured.

True. Had two players from my area turn pro, they were nowhere near the best street players. We had guys who could make your head spin on the ball but the mentality and complete game was not there.
