Gonçalo Guedes did it again. Your gift in this League is not a flower of a day. On Pamplona took out the unbalancing player that carries inside, the one that is worth the 40 million that Valencia paid for him, curiously the highest transfer ever made by Paris Saint Germain. Guedes has League started from electrical form and there are his statistics: two goals and one assist, three goals for whoever wants to give him the 1-2 of Valencia in El Sadar (the referee awarded it to Aridane at his own door).
Guedes scored in Pamplona his 25th goal for Valencia (140 games). The Portuguese thus fulfilled doubly the prophecy that he ventured after the victory against him Alaves in Mestalla. Guedes attended the Movistar teammates on the field that day. It was him last match before the national team break and there were still four market days. The question was clear and sharp: “Do you expect to repeat a goal in the next game against Osasuna?” The answer, a declaration of intent about his future and a prelude to what happened in El Sadar: “Let's hope Yes“.
Many around Valencia consider Guedes, this Guedes, the best signing what the club could do this summer. His continuity was celebrated by Bordalás, who always trusted to have him at his command even knowing that if an offer of 30 million arrived, his hope could be truncated. “I believe a lot in the coach and in the team”, Guedes said the phrase late Sunday after his exhibition against Osasuna. It summarizes why Guedes wanted to continue in a club where back in May his father came “too much.”
Guedes has found with Bordalás the requirement I needed to perform at his best and the confidence he longed for to have fun performing. The Alicante man did not hesitate to press him from the first training session at his command (“We want Gonçalo goals, goals” or “Gonçalo faces, you have to face” was heard in Bordalás' mouth from outside the fences the day the Portuguese returned to Paterna ) nor in give word affection and freedom of movement in the field.

Guedes is playing how and where has it been a long time wanted to play: from second front, walking at ease in the attack zone, looking for the back of the defense and falling to both sides according to the circumstances of the game. The Guedes statistics, in the first four days, they far exceed the average of the last four seasons. Beyond his goals and assists, Guedes is the Valencia player who has recovered the most balls in the three-quarter zone (5), the second who has won the most duels (12) and the second in the League with the most successful dribbles (12).
On Pamplona was the first and the one more times he finished to the goal of Sergio Herrera. He tried his luck three times: one was a goal, another was stopped by the goalkeeper and the last one was repelled by a defender. This is without counting the one that led to Aridane's own goal, which is statistically counted as a center. Guedes was the black and white player who received the most fouls (6) and the one who was sought the most by his teammates (24). The influence of Guedes and his freedom of movement is seen with the data that he was the player who received the most passes Gayà (2), Carlos Soler (2), Cheryshev (4) and Maxi Gómez (6), that is, Guedes it was offered from left to right and through the center. Sunday the Real Madrid visit Mestalla, one of those games that every footballer wants to play and in which he wants to shine.
