Hello, I am a new member of the forum, from Argentina
I think that Roberto is right not to rush Barco to play, he has to know his teammates better, and his teammates him, as long as it's not for a long time either, South American players tend to get depressed if they don't play, much more so if they see that the equipment is not working so well
Another thing that would seem correct to me is that they should use him in midfield instead of left back to start, he doesn't know the forwards in the league and he's also not that good of a defender.

Argie said:

I think he left too young from Argentina....as Garnacho, they are considered good players, but not quite argentinians want of their players

That’s what Argentinian’s thought about Messi too didn’t they?!

Messi moved with his family to Spain, just after his 12th birthday. I doubt anyone in Argentina had even heard of him.

Farehamseagull said:

No, later on when he became famous, there was a lot of disgruntlement that he’d moved away too young and was more Spanish than Argentinian. Until he won them the Copa and then World Cup, he wasn’t loved or even liked over there like Maradona and some of their other heroes because of that as well as the fact they weren’t winning. In fact, he was almost hated for a while.

Edit - Something very strange about watching the World Champions play with the commentator barking ‘Barco’, ‘Buonanotte’ and then ‘Mac Allister’. We seem to have a knack of signing good players !

Morning squire. Is that Facu and Barco playing for Argentina's first team or U23s?
