I was exaggerating comparing him to kuz and mundingayi but the first 2 matches he has been consistently poor. Really offered next to nothing in midfield. And this isn't a pointed attack, most ratings and general commentary has felt the same way.

I spend some time on whoscored. Great portal by the way.

I looked at our players and their computed characteristics and Vecino's abilities are the most interesting, because they tell what we all think. He is bad.
Basically he only play short passes and commits lot of errors which lead to opponents goal (concentration).
But has some interesting defensive abilities like blocking the ball and defensive contribution. So I tried to find some replacement for this dude with similar characteristics, but better.
First that came to mine is Arthuro Vidal and SMS as you can see on the images. But doing some research I found some possibilities: Mehdi Bourabia from Sassuolo and João Paulo from Brazil.
Also Mario Götze has good characteristics, just lacks those defensive attributes of Vecino.

We need to replace him, because having someone who creates statistically lot of chances for the opponent is really bad.

They should've listed "alcohol" and "driving" under Vidal's weaknesses.

Vecino didn't start today. You aren't implying that Barella was better because he wasn't.

Oh shit, him not playing has to mean he will start against Prague :/

I don't really care who starts instead of Barella.

Would take what we got from Barella today over the average Vecino performance.

He was. Vecino would have touched 2 balls in the whole game, spending all his time doing the same runs as Lukaku and forgetting that his place is in the damn midfield.

Typical game for Vecino - did the useless running and misplaced few passes.

I think he was even worse than usual because he got almost every pass wrong.

We are not winning anything as long as guys like this get to even sit on the teams bench. We need to invest in a new midfielder if we want to avoid another 2017/18 scenario.

He's probably my least favorite player in the squad these days.

Vecino is kind of lost at the point. Neither him, nor the team seems to be sure what his role is. At least under Spalletti, we knew what to expect from him.

I hope Conte drills him into the mould where he can come on at 70' and pose an attacking threat. I think he would be best utilised there.

Both Vecino and Gagliardini can do alot better than what they are currently doing. Its important they reach better form, or we will have to get a midfielder in january. I'm thinking Castrovilli, but he is probably too expensive.

Castrovili has looked good so far this season. Should keep an eye on him.

But hey, it's fucking Fiorentina. They'll quote a ridiculous number, or he will say no to us, or both, and Juve will get him for cheap.
