    Debut in the Nou Camp and no played club football in * knows how long..

    In hindsight it was probably a bad move, but we don't have an athletic enough right back to come in for a 5 at the back..

    Guy had a stinker..

    A horrible game for him to come into.

    His career here won't be judged on that.

    Worst possible match to make his debut in really.

    He shouldn't have been thrown into that game for his debut.

    We'll get a better idea of what he can do once he has a few games under his belt. No point rubbishing the guy after one game, especially when that game was in the Nou Camp and he was up against Neymar.

    Horrific debut, but we'd no-one else to play there. Imagine Janko!

    Not much game time thrown in against Barca, was always a recipe for disaster. Well at least it can't get any worse than that....hopefully.

    He was bad, but he wasn't Janko vs Be'er Sheva bad. He wasn't Efe "* is he gonna do next", bad. Yes he was poor, but it's his first game with a new club going up against Neymar and Jordi Alba as his primary opposition, name a harder pair to match up against? He'll come good, no doubt in my mind.

    This is one I suspect that is going to come good. Yes it was an awful performance but it was barca, probably the best there is at the moment.

    Got to laugh at some people, he was up against Neymar and Alba, can't think of a better left sided pairing than them. The speed of their movement and passing is near impossible to defend against. Gamboa couldn't have had a tougher debut. Plus that stats mentioned above would suggest he had a fairly decent game defensively, bearing in mind who the opposition were.

    Can't judge him from that. He was rusty, and up against some of the best players in the world.

    Baptism of fire for him last night. Well see what he's all about in the SPFL when he's not playing against Neymar
