Fabio Vieira: The Portuguese Project

[Dutch D]

Anguissa is a very good player imo, really like him.

 

[Wizzard]

He is sooo effing soft. Backs out of every challenge, really so hard to watch him.

 

[Abhishek Arora]

He should be off this summer
Never looked convincing
we have esr fit and ready

He is a decent prospect, but honestly don't know why we didn't go for a CM instead. We have no quality depth in the 6 and 8 positions.

Total passenger again today, similar as the performance against oxford but no assist this time to mask the overall poor performance. Misplaced simple passes in the first half, no defensive contribution, 2nd half he backpassed 80% of the time even when not really under pressure.

Idk if trossard can play the ødegaard role but I'd rather play him or esr there, at least they can carry the ball and turn under pressure. If they aren't good defensively well then they aren't worse than vieira anyway. Also was really infuriating to see how he wasn't even attempting to close down alvarez for that goal there. Legit was standing 2 meters next to him just watching, awful. Probably would have not gotten there in time but at least make an effort.

 

[Rasmi]

Honestly would Nwaneri look worse than him?

 

[Paperino]

He is a decent prospect

If "a decent prospect" means "a big waste of money" i have to agree.

 

[chessygoal]

AM hierarchy should be :
Ødegaard
ESR
Trossard
Gabriel Jesus as a false 9
No AM, play with 2 CM
Fabio Vieira

Badly needs a loan, but if ESR can't stay fit we have no choice but to keep him.

 

[Geofranco]

He has end product potential. That's why I said he is a decent prospect, but physically, he is lacking power and athleticism. It's not about size either. I believe Cozier Duberry would hold his own better and the boy is just as small and still a teenager.

He’s not fit.

 

[bastun]

Don't judge the man too early. Yes he had a bad game,but lets give him time for a summer preseason and see afterwards.

 

[Paperino]

He’s not fit.

Or ready.

 

[Vinci]

Or ready.

Or satiated.

 

[Henry boi]

Damn I thought he was good

 

[Rattata]

He needs to bulk up. He doesn't rely on his pace or quick dribblings so there's no reason why he can't look like Goretzka next season.

 

[Maybe]

Disappointed how the club decided to waste 50m on Lokonga and Vieira when we could've taken 2-3 kids from the academy for the same output and zero cost.

Vieira has nothing in his game, bet Nwaneri at the age of 15 offers more at this point, and there are some kids from the u14 team who have better physical attributes

 

[Dennis_Bergkamp_10]

Got to give him time. First season, not a lot of playing time. Can't fault him after every mediocre performance.

I agree, was a bit long for the sideman who haven't been playing and come in against City today can't really take much from that.

Not even trying to be funny, Nwaneri could contribute whatever we've gotten from Vieira this season if given the opportunities. Lewis Skelly could have been getting Sambi's minutes too. We clearly needed a CM, don't know why the club went for Vieira.
