@NealGardner_ I watch him everytime and think, "he's a perfect Eddie Howe player" but yeah I can see why Simone would want him. Since his days at Mallorca he's always been an very good technically but also has incredible work rate.
@thatboydivine@Timzblazee3 He is, the last time Balde looked solid defensively was the 2022/23 season. At the moment, Cambiaso is better, he's not no Lewis hall or Mendes but currently he's better than Balde.
@JulietteCerrato Yeah he loves the club so much, it does hurt that he has to leave.
I hope he does well, he's such a quality player... our mini Kimmich
@Pcruc25@Pxxdressi Crucial games can come down to individual error, any game really. And FDJ has never been on the receiving end of that. Wanting him out just shows much fans don't appreciate what he does on the pitch, trust me a lot of teams wish to have a player like him
@Pcruc25@Pxxdressi Not a single game we bottled in the ucl was Frenkie's fault, plus he's improved this season especially before the injury, we saw what he could do further up the pitch, and they're arguably not a better ball carrier.
