At the U20 WC, he was our best player.... He needs to mature but there's no disputing he can be a provider on the pitch. Maturity is all he needs and you'll people see why he's going to be the best Rio Academy player from their system.

I agree with your first sentence, I think Coentrao has more of a chance then the Porto youths.. even if the FCP kids are rated higher Coentrao has more of a chance at playing regularly for Benfica and that is better for his development.. barbosa, gama, and vierinhha keep getting loaned out .
but at u20, he wasnt the best player at all. Antunes was better, Gama was better until he got injured, and Pele was better. Coentrao hogged the ball and wouldnt pass, hed keep running until he lossed it.
if he matures and passes the ball he can be a good player. hes quick and turns fast and seems to have a good shot.
