I liked what I saw today, and hope he can repeat it at higher level. The kid looks like really exciting player, that pace, damn. Kinda reminds me of young Henry, while he was still in Monaco. Lot of flair, blistering pace, needed to work on his end product, etc...
The worst thing we can do is play him as a striker with his back to goal against these hatchet men in Serie A. He will lose all confidence very quickly.
Just put the kid in space and let him attack head on please.
Issue with giovinco was a disgusting lack in keeping the ball. He was easely cornered and pushed off the ball.
Coman has excellent controll and technique with the ball, and sidesteps with technique if you make the interception. This is a huge difference. He can hold a ball and dribble past defenders if they attack him. Giovinco cant.
Stop putting all the blame elsewhere, yeah Conte didn't use him to best suit his play, but Gio is not talented enough that is why he is not succesful not because everyone around him cannot understand how to use him so he could be Maradona.
Would have been top player otherwise? What makes you say that besides his one good season with PARMA? Do you know how many these types of players have been? Paladino the new Del Piero and etc...
Coman is very highly rated by PSG.
When Carlo Ancelotti play a 16 year old in a team of superstars it means he's a stand out talent.
Nice to see how he earned the #11 in little over a weeks time of training here.. I remember Buffon saying he could see Pogbas extraordinary talent in training after a few weeks as well. Let's not compare the two already, but I really think we have a gem in our hans this time as well.
