When Caicedo was sat on the boot of the car someone should of pushed him in and drove off

What’s he good at? Slow , weak , lethargic , can’t pass , can’t score , rash tackler. The set up doesn’t help him but If he had some genuine ability his attributes should be noticeable at least sporadically 

He's showed his passing ability, he's also showed he can break attacks down retrieve the ball back really well, one of the reason he looks so poor alot of the time is he stands out alot, 1 because of the huge price tag and secondly he's the one trying to break the play he's the one trying to stop the counter attacks cut balls out make that tackle, but he's one of the only ones trying to do it as well, therefore he makes more mistakes and gives away more fouls. Your comment kinda proves my point in a way of asking him to do everything, people expect him to win the ball back constantly then put in the killer pass away as chip in with goals while running up and down constantly throwing people about lol, the system is the problem with caicedo, the system/formation is the problem with us in general tbh, 4231, should be a defensively solid and very attacking formation, but because we don't have hardly any creativity in our team you see Enzo everywhere he's out wide he's to far forward, I don't blame him for that he's trying to make stuff happen, but in reality he should be sat deep controlling the passes from the midfield and we should habr a creative cam/CF to feed the wide players and the striker. Instead we have Gallagher, who don't get me wrong has heart has been really good player this season for us, but he hasn't been good at what he's supposed to be good at.

His passing is very poor for a starter at what’s supposed to be a top European team

His passing ability has put players through on goal a number of times, same can't be said for the players who apparently are meant to be doing this consistently

Few if any of those were passes that any premier League midfielder couldn't make.

Show me one midfielder who starts for a big European team with worse passing than caicedo

Does Tottenham quality? 😅 prob not, but if they did, Sarr still has more assists. Caicedo numbers in the final third, as well as long ball completion, aren't good any way you look at it.

His numbers are slightly better in league cups, which once again just proves how important who the opposition is.

Only one midfielder in Europe’s Top 5 Leagues is in the 70+ percentile for duel win rate, defensive actions, key passes and forward pass accuracy

Caicedo's key passes metrics are insanely poor

his carrying rate is shite as well

😞 money flushed away. McAllister is an all rounder who’s pretty good at everything. Caicedo is an all rounder who is bad at everything but somehow cost way more 

 

dropping record cash on someone who lacks both physical and technical strengths is crazy

we should have purchased Alan Varela, he would have cost us only £6.6m
