I'm surprised how little our fans rate Paulo.
Just because he scored fewer goals last season than his first doesn't mean he became a worse player.
I dont think thats the problem....i think that is because he has looked kind of not as good playing as treq than playing as SS.
I mean.. he wasnt the focal point of the team last half season. In his first season, everytime he was getting th eball near the area, he cut in and his left did the rest. Now he is still very good.. no doubts about that... but he seems to not be playing to his strenght which is his left foot shots.
We for sure will not play him as SS with all the wingers we bought.. unless we change to a 442 formation which i dont think we will do... but who knows.
I would like us to continue with the 4231, but i also wanna see him be the best player. Lets hope this weekend will be the beggining of his consagration with us.
We need Costa and Bernardeschi to help him in the creative department... for him to be more focused on attacking rather than going back so deep. Also the 2 midfielders need to get their shid together.
