@stevethemeat He's 18 years old. And played a lot with the second team. Porto fans as myself know him for quite some time. This season he was asked to take Alex Telles' job (this guy gives us at least one assist per game, so it wasn't an easy task) in the left back for a couple of weeks and did it superbly.

With Ricardo Pereira being sold to Leicester, Dalot was going to be on the starting squad as a right back, his natural position.

So I don't really know where you're getting at. I've seen plenty of him across the last couple of years to firmly say he has an enormous talent. Bernardo Silva had zero games with Benfica before moving, and Ronaldo had just a few matches more than Dalot. If this kid does show what he's capable of, no one knows: leaving so young is always a big risk, but he seems to have the exact same work spirit Ronaldo had in 2004, and not Renato Sanches' notgiveafuckery.

If the number of first team appearances meant everything, Juventus wouldn't try to sign him (more than once) way before his debut.

And please, Bebe was always utter shit. And has absolutely nothing to do with Porto.
