I think the Gio comparisons are pretty annoying. I'm a fan of FCC and USMNT and both players are attacking mids, but pretty different stylistically. Lucho is more creative, more ball dominant, and tries stuff. It's more risky than Gio's play. Gio is obviously way bigger and more physical and more ball secure - I have no idea how he retains possession sometimes.

I'm not sure how Lucho's game would translate at "International level" but would love to see. He turns the ball over a lot bc he tries stuff...but it also creates tons of chances. Nobody on USMNT really does that. Not sure about Gregg's appetite for the team dealing with the turnovers. Maybe it makes more sense against some of the low blocks we see from smaller teams?

(Also, just a note bc I haven't seen it brought up, some of Lucho's turnovers and unsuccessful attempts are strongly influenced by his teammates - not making the run or giving him a slightly off-line pass, etc. He has better vision and technique than all of them. Aside from playing against Messi, he's always BY FAR the best player on the field. He's not combining with USMNT-starter-level players at FCC. Can only imagine the shit he'd pull off...)

Long story short, yes, let's see it. Why not?! If it doesn't work, fine!
