What a great video. I didn't realised he had spent so much time in England before moving to us. Seems like a lovely chap, and glad he's helping Caicedo (our first £100m player) to settle in. I'll follow his progress closely.

Likeable man. Level headed, family guy. Great to see.

Passed the NDP with full marks.

Very good interview. He comes across very well indeed. Ecuador must be all over us with him and Caicedo. Both must be in with a shout of POTS if Cucu leaves.

Absolutely. If that video doesn't get you rooting for him then nothing will. Let's hope he can stay injury free and finally secure a regular spot in the first team. What a flipping lovely guy.

Lovely video etc etc......is he any good at football...??

Missed Ecuador game with a groin injury. His injury problems over the last 10 months have been pretty terrible

Indeed, such a shame, what is the longest run of games he has had at any level in the last year before he got injured? Two?

Two was the first number I thought of too…
Good player, but maybe his body simply cannot stand up to the rigours of top class football

He’s only just turned 20 so it may be his body getting used to the physical demands of the game in England. Plenty of time for him to develop.

He’s lived in England since he was 7 !

Very true, just as he had started to make real progress, become a first team squad regular and had started a few games too.

Fate can be very cruel at times.

Apart from the three years when at Benfica (2018-21), which will have been some of the most important years in terms of getting used to the physicality of top level, adult football.

More talented than Will Buckley but with similar injury wows, really hoping he was going to explode onto regular first team football this season. Still might.

 

[Swansman]

Four injuries in one year, three of them related to groin/hamstring issues. Maybe the bloke who fixed Lamptey and Welbeck should be doing a bit of cutting on young Sarmiento.

Perhaps. But regardless he’s not even playing enough consecutive games at any level to really be the ‘demands’ of English football.

Footballers get injured. Most recover and have long careers. Solly March was 21 when he was out for nearly a year with an ACL and he’s had multiple groin injuries since then and other knocks. He’s still played nearly 250 games for the Albion and is only 28. Give the lad a chance !

No need for all the panic. He hopes to be fit to play against Japan on Tuesday.

And now he has a new coach to convince.
