Is he elite?

no, he's a fast midget.
we have produced millions over the years but he was lucky enough to play in the current context where teams need a fast midget.
Dominguez wasn't so lucky, but he was basically the same player.

You could plug in Jesse Lingard or Alexis Sanchez into the City system and he would look elite

Beardhairdo Silva is definitely elite, at least for English standards.

and by polish?

Rúben Neves is better.
Switch them and you would see Rúben flourish even more than Bernardo at Man City and Bernardo performing worse than Rúben at Wolves.
Simple as that.

We've got two good strikers and a whole lot of nothing, he's a world beater for our standards.

he was elite at Monaco tho

>Ligue 1

He's an elite cunt, I'll give him that

I like him. Good football brain. Who doesn't like a technical player who can pass and dribble, but also has no problem tracking back and press? Natural replacement for David Silva. He doesn't seem the type of player who lets hype and ego get to him (like de Bruyne). If he can score sam (more) fackin goals he's surely elite, no doubt about that, Martin

They're not the same type of player

exactly, Rúben is miles ahead.

his skill level and intelligence is so pleasing to watch compared to Sane

So why does he play for Wolves and not City?

Literally one of the best ar his role and top 5 player in the PL.

You've got a great goalie in Fabianski desu

it was great to watch him combine with KDB against Spuds... if these two were fit all the time shitty would be quadruple contenders.

It sometimes happens that a better player is in a worse club.
Have you heard about Maradona in Napoli?

That was the 80s. This is the era of player movement

Ruben neves might be better than the likes of Fred, but to put him above B.Silva is pure bullshit.

you got a bunch of good goalkeepers too

System baby

>player who already prevailed at two clubs is a system baby
ok nigger

fantastic player that btfos anyone who rates physicality above ability

I'm sure there are plenty of examples.
If that weren't the case, no player would ever move from a lesser to a better club.

Porqueiro in denial.

Only because physical selection and training of the youth sucks here, so the only players who can make it are those who aren't forced to run much.

pep makes versatile players look elite with his sytem

...

not a Porto fan, sorry.
funny how you can only see the world through the lenses of your own fandom.

good and elite are two different things

Neves was already playing at a CL club in Porto. He moves to Wolves because the Championship was his level

Not quite.
Wolves are an interesting project in the making.
Porto are having a rough season.

Rafa is a fast midget too but he fucking sucks, the Portuguese Sterling

>Project
They'll never finished above 7th

in the right team, yes.

Improve his confidence and leadership abilities, keep him fit and let him learn more towards his late 20s and you have the best midfielder on the planet over the next 5 years.

the whole reason pep bought him was because he single-handedly destroyed City in the CL over two legs

>Not a porto fan
Max kek

>seeing the enemy everywhere
topkek

The fact that Liverpool and now Spurs (who have made 0 (ZERO) signings) have knocked City out of the CL throws into serious dispute the elite status of all of Citeh's players.

Laporte is not elite

my point is that I'd argue that none of City's players are elite on the big stage.

they scored 3 goals so I'd argue their attacking players are elite

Scored 4 goals
Defenders bottled it

literally the best player in the pl atm

came to say this.
without the at least part because he is definitely elite for epl only

COPE

You are not seing the big picture wich is the chinese marked lad
