I have never seen a player like him in my lifetime (in a bad way).

He was easily Mehdrid's best player yesterday but that was when he was on the right, dribbling and getting involved all throughout the pitch. He used his typical free role but he did it in a way to make Bale and Fatzema the central figures in attack...and look how it worked out. mans creates two great chances for Fatzema and he bottles them both

pace is a huge part of Penaldo's game, he basically plays as a SS for Mehdrid and so he gets the opportunity to drive from space because there is always someone occupying the central defenders. he has played as a sole #9 countless times and he has never, ever been as good as he has been in his free role. he doesn't work well without the space to run.

that's the biggest difference between Penaldo and Messi. Messi is a 10/10 player in transitioning, creating and goalscoring. Penaldo is a 10/10 player only in goalscoring.

i will bet my e-reputation that Penaldo won't be able to reinvent himself as a lone #9. i am never wrong about Calcio so i'm not worried tbh

was like WTF

it's only when a pundit points it out with their fancy graphics that people listen
