Yes that’s how we should judge a player. Ignore all scouting over years and judge him off an AFCON game…

Well aren’t you friendly.

Hes given the ball away 7 times in extra time btw.

 

[CoopsieDeadpool]

Glad we’ve gone off him. Been dreadful in the afcon today.

Could easily counter that by saying Lo Celso is great for Argentina & that means we should keep him.

We shouldn't.

So has his performance during the WC changed any bodies view on him?

Yes, and no.

He looks a good player, but similar to most of our current midfielders

He's been superb but let's not fall into the trap of judging players solely on one tournament. He's also been exceptionally poor when I've seen him in the league and AFCON. But he has shown the value of an out and out DM, and I wonder if Conte would like one of them in our squad to allow us to play 3 in midfield with 2 others pushing forward rather than a more creative ACM which many here are are crying out for.

The only point is if we go to 3 5 2 I think

not a bad player but not the type we need now

Yes, instead of a guy who looks like a rugby player he now looks like a footballer who looks like a rugby player.

 

[VoteMe4Prez]

my opinion of him has changed after seeing him playing this WC. However, we really don't need him as another holding midfielder

 

[Marantz]

I agree that we do not need him. He is deffinetly better then i thought.

Never sign a player off the back of a tournament. James Rodriguez, Karel Poborsky, Kleberson, Gyan…it’s just a completely different environment. Arguably the player of the tournament though.

We don't currently have any holding midfielders

 

[Joely]

Never been the biggest fan of buying players of the back of a tournament (during this WC, Morocco seem quite happy sitting back and defending and working hard and from that perspective he looks a perfect fit) but he looks like he has the tools to do well here to be fair. Not surprised Liverpool are looking at him even if it is as a squad player/stop gap as he looks to have a good engine, is mobile and has strength and that is exactly what they are lacking.

 

[cozzo]

He’s a good player, and would be a great addition to the squad

 

[chas vs dave]

He really reminds me of dembele, in terms of playing style

All his World Cup performances have done is remind me that the vast vast vast majority of us are absolutely clueless and should shut up when it comes to most things. Leave it to the experts and enjoy the ride.

Never has happened before and in the future though. It's a discussion board. What else are we gonna talk about? Aristotle?

just don't read it then- football is about opinions including yours. Presumably you think we should sign him up? Where would you put him in our pecking order of four, currently?

Fucking top notch sweeper, mate. Helped keep a clean sheet against the Germans. We could do worse.
