More chance of Baba Yaga.

 

[DanR]

More chance of Boba Fett.

Boba sounds good rn

More chance of being out here in the fields fighting for my meals.

That he progressed from Real SC (3rd division) to Setubal (1st division) as a youth is a hopeful indicator.

 

[BryanRoy]

It could work though. He will scare most strikers in the division with his stare.

Jesus he's watching the play and the striker's run at the same time.

He can simultaneously read the game and the matchday programme.

If he passes the eye test George Boyd will be fuming.

Looks like the plastic figure on top of an under 10's managers player of the year award.

 

[BryanRoy]

So he only has one eye ? One is a glass eye.

"Keep your eye on the ball"

Literally in his case

He’s either deftly bringing down a high ball on the volley there, or hoofing it Peter Kay style into orbit....

Go on Babba

Lovely straight lines, bit of blinding, etc

 

[Master Yates]

Can’t find much about this kid on the internet in Portuguese or English.

20 years old, 6,2” centre-half born in Guinea Bissau. Right-footed. Has played for Portugal u17 team twice (2-0 win against Turkey, 7-1 pasting by USA).

Here’s a video of him cocking up a backpass and letting Braga score.

Can’t find any mention of his eye/being partially sighted etc.

It looks like it could be true and I saw this.

Could be the first one-eyed player at this level since Dean Shiels? He had a few years at Doncaster before moving to Scotland.

Apologies to Baba

 

[Heffing Psycho!]

Good on him, he should put a marble with a skull on it in his socket though, that'd make him look double hard.

If true, it would be a concern.
Monocular vision would be a serious handicap for any player, but particularly for a central defender having to deal with high balls into the box.

One eye screams PASHUN. LETS AVE IT BABA
