Preach.
The shit I read in the last few pages. Colombo being another Cutrone. Or even Petagna. Wow. Guys, what's happened to you? Have you ever seen Cutrone being able to stop a ball like Colombo does!?
Colombo is an 18 years old prospect. Nothing more, nothing less. Considered his age and experience he's phenomenal. Has a very good first touch. Holds the ball damn good. Can link up. And has a ballistic in his left food that holds up with some of the best strikers out there. He clearly has very promising characteristics who make him an awful lot more than "just another poacher". He's like scoring everytime we field him, no? What else you ask from an 18 years old!?
Whoever doesn't see it is just another yungfreddy who gets aroused when talking shit about our own players.
Now what he's going to do and how he's going to develop all that characteristics is on a whole different page and none of us holds that crystal ball who can forsee the future. But denying that the promises are there just to take another shit at one of our players... You should know better than that.
I'm fully on the Colombo train.
Finally one fan who really can see the talent in player. That reply by the person who said "I hope he reaches Petagna levels so we can sell for 15M" was laughable, because even at age 18 Colombo is showing better things that Petagna has ever done.
As for Cutrone, I did not like him much, but he was not necessarily a bad back-up, actually considering we have Duarte, Laxalt, Conti, Samu, Krunic he was a good back-up. But Colombo clearly has more talent than him.
Goalscoring abilities are often underrated in this forum. I'm happy with Ibra, Leao, Rebic and Colombo. They will give us a lot in attack and not many teams in Europe or Serie A have this quality.
