Serious generational talent. Can’t believe people were doubting him.
And the caf joined in soon after... he looks a great talent so far...Multiple users (Porto and Sporting fans) over here stating that he was a product of Benfica's propaganda... How couldn't you doubt?
Damn it2 goals in 45 minutes.He chose the wrong club at Madrid
We were, just not enough to pay the €120m buyout clause. Just like we were interested in Mbappé, but not enough to pay him €12m a year and giving him a starting spot and selling Bale...Not his fault you weren't interested
I hear there is kickass chap named Woodward up in Manchester as a possible replacementWe were, just not enough to pay the €120m buyout clause. Just like we were interested in Mbappé, but not enough to pay him €12m a year and giving him a starting spot and selling Bale...
Ffs Flo needs to retire
Sorry but you’re lying here. Just look at my posts or @SportingCP96 regarding him. Actually I think it was him who opened this thread. Even better we both said here despite the propaganda that was around him he was a talent, unlike Renato Sanches. If other posters said different things I apologise.Multiple users (Porto and Sporting fans) over here stating that he was a product of Benfica's propaganda... How couldn't you doubt?
Paulo Sousa before injuries was on a similar level than those. I said it here multiple times that he resembles me João Vieira Pinto regarding his quick thinking and that player who can play between the lines. But with much more quality regarding his finishing.I told you guys. Only haters could deny this kid's talent. Rui Costa, Bernardo and Felix are the best players to ever come out of Benfica's youth development system. And Felix at his age is leaps and bounds above the other two. Nothing is guaranteed. Atletico took a huge risk with the price tag and he may still not deliver on his full potential but as I always stated Felix is a generacional talent, he has the ability to be one of the best players in the world in the next decade.
Atletico have played a blinder, sensational replacement for Griezmann.
Also: De Ligt will be amazing if he flops.
Still a bit early to call out a 19 year old I'd sayI can see it you know, he's very error prone in the few games I've seen him in. Perhaps not flop but won't become the GOAT everyone thinks.
I remember bugging out after a friendly with another young Portuguese and that turned out quite fecking dandy.Are people really bugging out after a friendly game?
He's not going to flop unless he either suffers a devastating injury or develops the dreaded cassano-balotelli syndromeI can see it you know, he's very error prone in the few games I've seen him in. Perhaps not flop but won't become the GOAT everyone thinks.

Kid's already a very good player, and his floor is basically coutinho. His ceiling is fecking Kaka, or close to it
Ah. Then replace Coutinho and Kaka with Koulibaly and Nesta, point still standsI think he meant De Ligt

Yeah but the general consensus is that friendlies are glorified fitness training. Most players (specially older ones) aren’t even fit yetI remember bugging out after a friendly with another young Portuguese and that turned out quite fecking dandy.
Agreed! Hope he does wellHe hasnt actually done anything yet, one season in a weaker league and some goals in friendlies doesnt mean he has made it.
For the record I think he will go on to be a great player and I thought we should have been in for him. Huge fee and risk...but lets wait and see how he does ove the next couple of years before doubting the doubters
Almost certainly going in anyway, but is that first goal not Lemar's? On the replay at the end from behind the goal I swear it knicks off his knee. He half-heartedly celebrates too.
I'd agree with this. He will have huge games all season long, let's wait a little.He hasnt actually done anything yet, one season in a weaker league and some goals in friendlies doesnt mean he has made it.

Well, we could get Sancho instead who I would prefer anyway.Signing this kid would’ve been perfect for us. Imagine in 3 years or so an attacking quartet of Inside forwards of Rashford and Greenwood, Martial as the CF and Felix as a roaming 10. Sensational. Shame to miss out on him. Looks incredible.
