I remember your original post and watched the video of him - looked a very exciting prospect. I’m always wary of highlight reels though - is he fairly consistent?

9 times out of 10 he’s reliable, even on his “bad days” - he always popped up with an assist or a goal.

Hasn’t been often where he’s drifted out of the game, always trying to make something happen.
Sometimes likes the ball too much at his feet and doesn’t look up, but that’s fine because he’ll normally come up with something at the end.

Hearing you’re signing Erico Sousa from us.

I mentioned him a few months back as a potential signing for you; he would be outstanding with full time football.

Here’s my previous comments about him;
“We’ve got a lad with us, Erico Sousa..

He’s not signed a new deal yet as wants to play higher. 14 games, 7 goals and 3 assists since he signed in October.

Be a hell of a player for you, if he had full time training he’d be even better. Gutted his departure is inevitable.”


What does Erico Sousa have to do with castles?

Surely Eric O’Sousa is Irish?

Strange stop-start career he has had but I'd imagine you have to be very, very good technically to even get one Portugal u19 cap.

Oh come on mate, isn't it obvious?

As you well know, the name 'Sousa' comes from the Sousa River in northern Portugal and the first man who used the surname was the noble of Visigoth origin Egas Gomes de Sousa. You'll remember of course that he served as governor of the entire region of Entre Douro e Minho and famously, whilst captain general, beat the King of Tunis in a battle near the town of Beja.

Anyway, I digress slightly there, but it just so happens that precisely 18 miles north west of the banks of the Sousa River sits Guimarães Castle, the principal medieval castle in the municipality Guimarães. 18 miles precisely. And just what was Erico Sousa's squad number at Darlington? That's right - 18. It's happening.

The social media team at GTFC really need to up their game and start making their little clues less obvious.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

If this reel is at it's orginal footage speed, he has a great turn of pace and plenty of fancy footwork. Seems to know how to draw a foul too, and avoid them. Could be very exciting, on either wing it looks like.

Normally those highlights reels show a bit of fancy footwork and some nice crossfield passes but there'e some actual end product there. Just seen an interview with the Darlo manager where he talks about really wanting to keep him and how he's been supported by the chairman to try and do that. So not your usual club offers player new contract scenario, they clearly think he's a cut above at that level.
