Lucas Paqueta

[chrisd2k]

Looks happy with either foot to me. Shouldn't have watched clips as now I really want him and we haven't had any links in ages

 

[Snarfalicious]

Paqueta, #9, LCB, RWB and we are good. Another wide forward with versatility (Carrasco) and a CB (pending outgoings) would be unreal, but maybe greedy.

Ally Gold constantly mentions him. Think he is liked because he is versatile aswell.

He was formed in my favorite team here in Brazil, and what I can say is that I would love him. In terms of physical quality and energy, he reminds me a lot of De Bruyne, but he doesn't have the same vision as the Belgian, but he makes up for it with incredible dribbling and getting into the box with great success. As a Brazilian I would love him at our club, as I think he is the second best talent of this new brazilian generation. Behind Vinicius Jr and in front of Bruno Guimarães (who is already a steal for Newcastle imo)

Not for this thread but be interesting to hear who else you rate and who’s coming through from Brazil

He’s a very versatile player, can play CM, AM and across the front three but I would say AM is probably his best role. He’s very much a classic Brazilian creative AM, lovely technique, great on the ball, has a shot on him and can thread a pass. The one difference being that he works hard for the team. He’s not the fastest tho and he doesn’t have the passing range of Eriksen but he’s still developing. I would expect some growing pains if he came here but he seems driven and physically I think he’d do well here.

He’s probably the player I’d be most excited about signing of those currently linked (except for maybe Lautaro but that’s not going to happen) as I think he has a really high ceiling. I think we’d be better of spending €40/50 on him the £70 mil on Maddison.

Well, I'm sold after reading that. If he comes I'm expecting the second coming of Kaka!

I must say that it’s a real shame he doesn’t seem to be a factor anymore, if he ever really was. Was hoping he would come into focus without Eriksen being an option anymore but seems now it’s a case of Raphinha or Richarlison, Spence and a LCB.

Knowing Lyon/Aulas and the French media I'd have thought we'd have heard plenty about it by now if it were a realistic option.

Paqueta - albeit there's not much in the way of noise
Richalison
LCB - whichever
Spence

...would be a genuinely outstanding window

I don't think we'll achieve it - significant execution risk in some of them - but it looks like we're giving it a go

Would be a good window but with the caveat of changing paqueta for Kamada certainly will be cheaper and available also I would suspect eintract would be a hell of a lot easier to deal with than Aulas .

Such a shame this one has gone cold, just been watching some extended highlights of Brazil games for Raphinha and Paqueta just stands out in that no 10 role. Seriously classy player.

 

[chrisd2k]

Yeah I'm sad ?
Love a bit of good old fashioned Brazilian flair, not these almost European players they have been producing.
Him and Raphinia... Oh my ?

Yup. Prefer him to Raphinha for the money being discussed

Well that's a fucking new one.

Who the fuck flies kites in this day and age? I take it people who haven't discovered drones yet

It's very commonplace in Brazil. Even adults stand in the street and do it.

 

[sage]

Yeah, not only that but some people (small minority) attach broken glass onto their kite lines to try and take other kites down as some kind of combat sport. It's mental. Legit people die from this every year there from sliced necks, etc.

Sounds like this could've been the case here

Yeah my mate told me kite fighting is fairly popular in Pakistan.

Sounds like a fun game ngl
