3 in 3 for DM is very unique thing to see. 

Btw is this video in slow motion or what? 🤭

What does very unique mean?

Scored again 🤷

In that video Andrey attempted one key pass, and missed it.

Meanwhile, judging a DM by the goals he scores is like boarding a train at Victoria and expecting the next stop to be Edinburgh. You're not only on the wrong train, you're on the wrong track altogether.

Most impressive thing about him are goals. Scored 7 in last 18 games for Vasco and now 2 in 2 for Brazil. For a DM this is very unusual. 

Unusual and irrelevant unless first he is an excellent DM. Andrey may well be an excellent DM but I haven't seen evidence of it in any of the all touches videos I've viewed. Looking forward to seeing him play for real.

Is at least very unusual grammatically correct?

I hope this lad makes the haters eat their words.

Most definitely. 🙂

I am a non-believer but, when the time comes, I will gladly ask you to pass the salt. 🙂 

(In my defence, the best evidence I have viewed are 5 all touches videos. In those I saw nothing which supports the decision to buy him. In time I expect I'll see more of him and maybe form a better opinion.)

Guess who scored another one. 

4/4 

He was rested game before. But now another group. Weirdest tournament system. 

And why is he listed on loan on this forum?

I know many think he is a not good enough

but not me

I have a decent feeling about him

he is by far the most rated teen MFer Brasil has atm

here are all the top 15 25yo and under Brasil MFers

(amazing fact, other than one player, (and he is in 21st place), Igor Gomes, a 24yo in-one-month AMF from Atlético Mineiro, NONE  in the top 30 of ALL, (every single type), of Brasilian 25yo and under MFer are AMFs or RMFs, or LMFs atm)

 

here are ALL the 5m euro and over valued Brasilian CMF/DMF's

CMFs rate €10m and up in bold

Bruno Guimarães    
Casemiro   (30yo)
Fabinho (30yo in 8 months)
Lucas Paquetá  
Douglas Luiz 
Danilo  
Wendel  
Fred  (30yo in one month)
Éderson 
Gerson  
Arthur Melo 
João Gomes 
Andrey Santos 
André  

all below are under €10m

Evander 
Matheus Henrique 
Allan (the 32yo ex Napoli/Everton player)
Thiago Mendes (31yo in one month)
Marcos Antônio 
Walace 
Maycon 
Rodrigo Nestor 
Jean Lucas 
Gabriel Menino
Vinicius Souza  
Patrick de Paula
Willian Arão  30yo
Allan    Clube Atlético Mineiro 
Bruno Praxedes  
Christian  
Thiago Maia 
Otávio  
Gabriel Sara 
Jair 
Zé Rafael (30yo in 4 months)
Pablo Maia
Du Queiroz 

 

some to keep an eye on

including a shit tonne of youth (as young as 15yo, I have been really digging deep into South America, especially Argentina and Brasil)

 

and finally one who plays CMF as well

@OhForAGreavsie

He is showing more in this game. Look at the way he celebrates the tackles and clearances... a born leader with the kind of fight I want too see at this club.

Finally a video of him playing some forward passes lol.

Still, bit lucky with the assist but nice to see he can actually play a bit quicker and forward more although I still think he’s going to find the PL a whole different level of fast.

Technically still not overly impressive though but doesn’t mind getting stuck in. Suppose a good loan in the summer could fasten his development because he doesn’t look PL ready for me.

I don't want to pigeon hole someone who's 18 years old, as I'm sure the club has it's own plans for how to develop and eventually utilise him.

For me I don't see an out and out defensive midfielder. I know he's operating for the Brazil side at present in a deeper role and has fulfilled similar at club level (I've seen clips where he's even taken goal kicks, etc to bring the ball out from the defence) but I wonder whether that has more to do with him just being the best they have for that role to anchor the whole side down.

I actually see his game being more suited to a box to box role, perhaps more on the defensive side than the offensive side, but given the licence to hunt the ball, win the ball, and use that energy and athleticism.

I'm thinking along the lines more of a Kante, or as a Brazilian equivalent, Ramires. I think a player like that could work pretty well with someone like Enzo who can dictate the game.

I agree with that, and can clearly see him in a double pivot, next to Enzo for instance, but just not yet. Unlike some people who see him slot in in our midfield directly (hype around newly signed players is a wonderful thing isn't it), he does not seem to be PL ready, as @OneMoSalahpointed out. Technically very raw still, and will need to hone his skills. Loads of potential though, and seems to possess a warrior mentality which is always a plus!

Very excited about this young lad, but for the long game.

that's the utter beauty of buying the best the globe has to offer in terms of high potential teenagers

just wait until our multi-club model is up and steaming
