[Albion] Facundo Buonanotte - SIGNED for 1.8 billion pesos

CheeseRolls · May 22, 2023

I thought Buonanotte looked like things were starting to click for him yesterday. He was working really hard off the ball to find space and to get back quickly to help out defensively. He is also making some good late runs into the box often not picked up by the opposition. Would be nice to see things start to come together for him soon.

I said the same. It was his best game for us

We don't sign players just to have their ass sitting on a bench. This is us, we give them an opportunity to develop. I remember Sarmiento when he first had a run out and Encisco. Nothing particularly remarkable but you could clearly see they had the potential and the desire. It's nurtured and gradually they become those players that we could never dream of leaving out of the side. In a couple of years time we could be seeing a regular line up of McGill, Van Hecke, Sarmiento, Encisco, Ferguson, Adringa etc, etc. Keep the faith!

Exactly - love him and his enthusiasm, but he'll soon be a marked and hated man. I think even Pascal Groß was tiring of the histrionics today. You've got the foul, your opponent has been carded - there's no need to roll around as if you require a leg amputation NOW otherwise you're going to die.

The senior pros need to talk that out of his game.

He was getting bollocked by Gross all the way through the first half. Mostly for not following instructions I think and that's also why he was hooked. His confidence in thinking he cam do everything by himself will make him an excellent player I think, he just needs a bit of help maturing over the next season or so.

He needs to at least try to go outside his man now and again but he’s clearly very one footed. Over the next 12 months the club will strengthen him up and coach, coach, coach. Same as Ensciso, Mac, March, Trossard, rinse and repeat.

That's surely why he will ultimately play inside.

He doesn't have the pace of Mitoma and I doubt has the scarcely believable outside of the stronger foot cross Mitoma has, so will likely play where this will be less of an issue.

I would like to think Facu is at least trying to develop a right foot he could use in an emergency

This young man is going to be a very special player.

deletebeepbeepbeep · May 24, 2023

Very fun to watch, has a great nack of gliding past players. Exciting and a lot of potential for sure.

upthealbion1970 · May 24, 2023

Some moments of absolute brilliance from the young man tonight. He’s got the potential to very very special

The Fits · May 24, 2023

Best game so far. Definitely be moving into the centre soon. Big summer in the gym and he'll contribute lots next season..

BNthree · May 24, 2023

Can imagine City’s Lewis will be having nightmares about Buononotte tonight. Our boy was getting very physical with him, often off the ball. Seems to have adapted to UK game very quickly.

Super Sub · May 24, 2023

Dare I say it but his balance and the way he glides past people remind me of a very young Messi

WhingForPresident · May 24, 2023

Two really good performances in a row from him. Thought it may be the case that he needed a loan or a bit more time to settle in properly but he has really shown he is capable of being part of this squad already. Can't be easy either moving to the other side of the world at 18. Well done Facu.

Tevez said that about him. It appears we have found another one.

Gabbiano · May 24, 2023

Thought he really announced himself on the scene tonight. Much like with Enciso, you could see the potential but now it seems to be clicking.

AlexBH · May 24, 2023

Showed promise tonight. I especially liked some of the tracking back and winning the ball. He’s learning. I think De Zerbi wants more of that from Enciso as well. It’s so important to our style of play.

I can see him filling Mac’s boots next season

In Argentina they (or a good number of them) reckon he is the number 10 to follow Messi , not Mac.

Carlos Tevez was adamant he was the next Messi
