Buonanotte

[Billyni]

Farke signs facundo

[spaldy]

Is he any good?

[spaldy]

Head scratcher for sure. Aaronson has been in form and works his tail off. He?s also signed for us.

Why develop a competitors player?

[cherrypie7]

Is he any good?

Yes. Both Bielsa and Farke always look for this type of player. One of the interesting similarities in playing/coaching philosophy. A player who can carry the ball and run at the opposing defence directly. Bielsa had Carlos Tevez when Argentina won Olympic Gold. Farke got Rutter (now gone), and now he has Stach. But stach is not quite as fast or as clever with the ball. Buonanotte is a clever left footed player.

I am kind of curious as to why he was available. Don?t know much about this one

He could not get a game at Chelsea!

[CLIVETHELEEDSFAN]

its a straight up loan, no option or obligation to buy, he wasn't getting gametime on loan at chelsea, hes only 21, good skill and definitely a playmaker type player, something that we don't have many of in the squad, its a useful addition, some creative flair, but Farke has always said, loans are iffy signings as he will never guarantee them minutes, Facundo will have to work hard to force his way into the 11, could feature on the bench I would imagine, at least to start with

Undoubtedly we will see him in the cup game at brum

Pretty freaky today. In less than 5 minutes. Takes a hit from a defender to the face. Bleeding and gets up grabs the ball and cannons a shot which is blocked by defender or is likely going in.

Bielsa always seems to have a good eye for a player he flagged Ben White, Gvardiol, Eze and Olise amongst others he wanted to sign.

He also seems to have a clear idea of where and how he wants them to play - ergo Phillips.

Bounonette looks like a solid player and in the very limited time on the pitch showed glimpses of why we wanted him.
