Or the quality he brings? Despite his “age” he’s contributed to every match bar the first couple & one recently. He sees things that others don’t, and he is mentoring. On the other hand I doubt anything that Kuol can experience here would mark him as ready for Europe in the time he has left. He’s either going to make it or no.

He can't last 90 minutes, he wil struggle big time in Germany. Central have to play urena because of the wage he's on
