CaptCanuck Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) So one of my South American scouts recommended this guy back in the summer of 2025 and we bought him from his Colombian club for 3m GBP. Now we're in December of the 2027/28 season and he's on loan at Barca. After doing his time in Spain, I can now bring him back and not have to worry about work permits. Although my squad is set for this season and I don't want to mess with the mix, I will leave him at Barca for the whole season and hope he continues to improve. Now when he returns after the season, where do you play him? He's slow and I'm not sure he'd fit into my front 3, unless I played him as my striker - currently a PF (s) or DLF (a) depending on tactic. His defensive traits (Marking, Tackling, Positioning) are low otherwise I could use him in my double-pivot, although I think that may still be the best spot. He's too intriguing to cash in and not play, but it is a bit of a head scratcher where I could maximize his skills.

FrazT Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 His pace is not ideal for a wide player, so maybe as a target man? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladis Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 DLF (S) is the best for him, i think. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MG89805 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Definitely a DLF, he's technically amazing and 6 foot 4. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptCanuck Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share Posted October 26, 2020 Thanks guys - ya that makes sense to me. We'll see what another 5 months at Barca does for his attributes and then bring him into the fold next season. I think some unfortunate teammate is going to be transfer listed now, but them the breaks :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GianniM Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Hopefully you can unlearn him the short simple passing thing, he has great technique, vision and decisions to do otherwise Edited October 26, 2020 by GianniM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC he only had the keeper lob when I bought him. I'm going to go back to my end of season save from a couple years back and see if I can see what he initially had.
