Quite - I don’t recall any of our other teenage development players constantly being ripped apart, unfairly by so many NSCers since the day he arrived.Hes good a player, a very good player. 18 years old ffs. And hes desperate to do well you can see it
Again shoved on out wide.... hes a no10 we all know it
we were chasing the game and he was trying to make things happen jees lay off idiots
I have given your comment a 'like', despite the fact that I do NOT think the lad is ready to be playing.He's had some harsh comments levelled at him on here, he gets a huge pass from me as he's still a baby. As far as I'm concerned at 18 you're still a child (there's probably another debate to be had there), so the kid should be given some slack for the foreseeable.
I don't think he should be playing either, that he should have been placed on loan and no way should De Zerbi be throwing him in out of position. There were some kneejerk reactions yesterday that didn't mention De Zerbi, which is unfair on lad.I have given your comment a 'like', despite the fact that I do NOT think the lad is ready to be playing.
In short - yes HE gets 'a pass' from me, because he is so young, and as yet, ill-equipped to play any significant role.
But - DeZerbi does NOT get 'a pass' for throwing him in - especially out wise, where his lack of pace leaves him looking completely lost.
Its valid for people to express dissatisfaction at his selection - it doesn't automatically follow that they are putting the boot in to the kid himself.
Not convinced on sarmiento. Can't get in west brom team and ALWAYS injured. Bonny gives us more.Hindsight and all but it seems like Sarmiento to me was the one more "ready" for first team action.
I do believe Buonanotte will eventually come good - whether with us or for someone else - but right at this moment he doesn't impose on a game enough, doesn't affect it enough. That's all. All the attributes are there.
I believe he is also unfairly compared to others around his age who have absolutely hit the ground running - i.e. Ferguson and Enciso. But they are the exception generally, not him.

I don't think Leeds was the right move either, but he should have been loaned. I think the club and RDZ have handled this situation badly.Agree - a child playing in a different continent, and mostly out of position. He's a 10, not a winger. Looked much better against Ajax.
Some really snide comments on here. You'd have to be a moron to write him off. He might not be ready but it's not fair to expect him to be up to Enciso's level.
Also, a loan isn't always the answer. He's on record saying how difficult he found the move, maybe the club decided sending him up to Leeds to be thrown in the deep end wasn't the best idea for his development.
he certainly needs time to progress, and yes, it is true that others like Bis and Ali Mac took time. Having said that, it was frustrating to see him try to go past the defender's right and lose the ball every time. I think there is a star player in there somewhere, but as others have said, perhaps a loan to a Championship side would help, rather than being thrust into the heat of the PL. With a hopefully improving injury situation, this might happen in january?Hes good a player, a very good player. 18 years old ffs. And hes desperate to do well you can see it

I really rate him think there’s a player thereRDZ sees something in him that many of us fail to see for whatever reason
Many journos got it wrong, saying the assist was from Fati or Lallana... easier to say/type than FB I guess ,Not 1 mention on here of his assist on Sunday. Played the return for adingra. Did OK for me
