Came through the best youth system in the world, played for barca, went to an average la liga team to play more games and was one of he highest scorers in the league. Miles better player than dcl when it comes to ability

Well you may be right, may be wrong everybody has an opinion. It's the first part of your comments which , for me helps make DCL such an exciting prospect. Sandro is two years older and as you say came through the best system in the world, played for Barca against teams set up to defend so learnt a lot. DCL came from ...........Sheffield Utd youth system, and has now spent a year with us. I would agree, Sandro is years ahead in terms of technique and ability , maybe about those 2 years of age difference, maybe about a year due to their differing youth coaching, maybe DCL will never catch up because Sandro will improve too. Lots of unknowns still, including how Sandro will adapt to the PL, I'm just happy that for about £7mill we've got two young , exciting attackers in the team who have different styles.

Fair enough, dcl just doesn't scream goalscorer imo, looks so unnatural in front of goal.
 

Why do people have to be so extreme in their negative views? He's never had a 'shocking' game. Shocking would insinuate that he's been a 0/10 which he definitely hasn't. Stop sensationalising every single thing you say.

no, but we are a top 6 outfit in the premier league and do not have the time to put developmental prospects in the first team.

I totally agree. Play DCL in "easy games" to give him game time. He played really well against City, but we cant expect him to suddenly be the answer. He needs more time, but that time shouldnt be spent in big matches if better player are available.

That's might or might not be true. On what I've seen so far DCL is a more effective player than Sandro
