Its because they look beautiful on TV due to the angle. Crossfield balls can work amazingly to get out of pressure and/or switch play, especially if out to a player in space. But in Facundos case they are too floated (spend too much time in the air) and not in front of the player enough. No doubt something he can improve upon very quickly.
Good discussion and, to add, there are very few circumstances where floated balls are a good thing.

For me he’s exactly where he reasonably should be in his development given his age & number of games played. Nowhere near the finished article & plenty to improve upon but so there should be at 19.

& he scored against Palace so bonus points there.
He's miles ahead. He's playing PL football and in the (world Cup winning) Argentina squad. Most 19 year olds are in the U21s or on loan to L1 :giggle:

He's already worth a lot more now than what we paid for him.

Not ready yet to be the 'go to' guy like Mitoma or Joao Pedro, but I think he will be a top player. I cannot wait to see him and Barco starting for us together.

Right now, I don't think he's good enough to be a regular starter for a club pushing for top seven. He's come on immensely this season, but he's still mostly potential at this point.

I was behind our 19 year old wunderkind in the queue at Tesco in Hove yesterday. Anyone want to guess what 3 items the young professional athlete was getting for his dinner?

Is this just a way of removing one of our 19 year olds from the other story?

If it were Aldi I'd have said:-

Wheelbarrow wheel -uniinflated.
Bread
Welding mask.
