He'll do great as a RB, especially with Suso who makes it easy for fullbacks to make overlapping runs when he cuts it, which is what Conti thrives at

A legit question.
What makes you all think he will turn around everything and lift our game that much?
You all talk like there is no possibility of him failing like most of our signings at first.

Actually he wasn't good b4 his injury either but still a huge upgrade on the right side.

Yes!!

Answering the question above ^^

Not only is he an upgrade over our right flank, he also makes Kessie and Suso much more effective. Kessie played his best football this season when he had Conti in support, Conti and Kessie both have a great understanding of each other. Suso who loves to cut in will have a great option in Conti overlapping. This imo was our biggest lose this season and completely changed the way we played and slowly started Kessie’s decline in performance.

if not anything technically, he will be huge upgrade tactically because of his pace.

Yeah, nice answers. Another threat on the right flank with Suso, that should add much pressure for the opponent. And defensively, although he is not that good imo, he is better than Calabria.
And Abate had too many errors this season, he remins me of Zapata

Defensively he’s probably on the level on Calabria. However in an attacking sense I think he’s much better than our other full backs. Also had a knack of scoring, I remember in our pre season games he always got in good positions to score also.

I think he will be used sparingly so I agree he isn't going to be a huge game changer.

But our right back position currently is pretty stagnant.

I am not sure what is up with Abate? I think that eye injury really messed him up and he's even talked about retirement. He's really lost his pace and Calabria cannot be relied on, so just having Conti available at least gives us another option.

Footballers often return after the minimum recovery period but given his style of play this might be too dangerous for Conti.

I hope Calabria can produce at LB, it would be a shame to bench him, he's doing better than R.R, who has declined a bit, maybe the break will do him well
