💥Valentin Barco played as a left-back for Boca, Brighton, FC Sevilla, and again for Brighton, where he mostly failed to impress and the above-mentioned teams wrote him off.

Chelsea had him on their radar even before he moved to Brighton.

After his move to Racing Strasbourg, where he was given a new chance by Sam Jewell, he was initially used as a left-back in the first few games, before Liam Rosenior moved him to central midfield.

He is really flourishing there, playing deadly passes with great vision, very spirited, a real fighter with great technique.

He's a bit taller than Marco Veratti, but Barco's playing style and temperament remind me completely of Veratti! 

As I said on the board my cool down analysis after the sacking of Maresca. 

That if we are to continue with this trading of players and managers between clubs then it makes sense we get a manager from their, like Liam. And then in the future if Gary does good in Strasbourg brinng him to keep the continuity. 

If they pull this good and without much fuss as in France they are hating this, they can build something really good.

🚨Everton have shown interest in a loan deal for Tyrique George.

Chelsea previously had only been willing to sanction a permanent exit for George but are now exploring loan options.

(@TheAthleticFC)

Victim of Yul Quitters "I'll show I'm smarter than others by licking windows" positional changes. Which saw us stall a promising young career as we spent 100m to not even marginally improve yet.

Well, this is a bit misleading.. 

I remember reading a long ass article about Barco late 2023/early 2024, before he joined Brighton as Chelsea was said to be interested by the time too. 

His role was compared to Joao Cancelo's at City: he was left back at Boca when defending, but when attacking he alway got forward and go inside the midfield, playing key role in build-up plays, he was tayloring the attacks with runs with the balls and long passes. Same as prime Cancelo did for Pep in their treble era. 

So this "failing everywhere till Rosenior saw something in him which others never had" is a bit false narrative, he utilized Barco very well and used for what he was well known to be capable of. 

I would be glad if we signed him though, true gem who Brighton wasted, finally not someone we have to buy from that cunt Paul Barber.

We have brought AA back to use him elsewhere, didn't take a genius to work that out, the thing now is, they are trying to whore him out elsewhere after up rooting him where he was doing well and was happy, to now being in a battle of him sitting tight as he doesn't want to fuck off to a no mark French side, I can't blame the fucker in all honesty.
