Este man no es solo delantero, puede jugar como extremo por la izquierda y esa es una posición que nos falta, ademas, tiene caracteristicas distintas a James que pueden ser utiles. Es rapido y desborda muy bien, ademas de que su remate de media distancia no es nada malo.
does he have double citizenship? Why are folks so worried that he will be capped for Venezuela? Looking at his stats.... 6'2" winger and 25 years old. We have so much depth in attacking. Love it!
Aparentemente tiene doble nacionalidad, o al menos el mismo lo insinuó. Jugó como 5 años en Venezuela asi que no seria raro.
No, actualmente no tiene doble nacionalidad, pero no tiene ningun problema en obtenerla ya que vivio unos 5-6 años alla y ademas su esposa es venezolana, al igual que su hijo, y por lo que lei en las entrevistas, estaria bien feliz por jugar por venezuela, claro que como segunda opcion.
Let's go. Si Pekerman insinuo que no habia espacio para Ibarbo en la seleccion por la competencia en la delantera. Ahora imaginense por Copete...
If there is one positive about this kid... ... it is that he is a winner. Winner of championships with the teams in Venezuela, winner with Santa Fe, and now with a successful winning team like Velez he just adds to his confidence. He is another player that makes me wish we had more Non-FIFA friendlies. Would be cool to test him out at left wing.
The good news is that Copete scored a hat-trick for Santos last night. (Good for him!) The bad news is Pekerman may be tempted to call him up again.
If he called Izquierdo, why not Copete? I think if he keeps it up why not... For sure James and Cuadrado are starters but then after that Cardona has been splitting time with Macnelly and right now Cardona has the edge. But behind those guys, Muriel has been the only other consistent option... If Copete keeps it up he should get a chance as a winger... Would like to see him make the jump to Europe this year, would be great if he could go somewhere to a place that has a Colombian, maybe him and Muriel at Sevilla!
Venezuela should've done us the favor and taken him off our hands. Not worthy of putting on the NT jersey, another Berrio here.
Que copete y berrio sean brillantes en brasil muestra que esa liga no es tan fuerte............no es coincidencia que tanto gabigol llega a europa despues de ser goleador y salen con un chorro de babas. Copete en argentina le fue super mal, ahora es idolo en brasil.
He wasn't that good in Nacional either. Barrio is just insanely fast that's about it. Both got shots at the NT and didn't impress. Think Izquerido is ahead of them. Also prefer to see Fabian Castillo get called up again over Berrio or Copete. Copete/Castillo I feel we're both called to be cup tied to Colombia
Copete was the epitome feast or famine for Nacional. He made some absolutely beautiful goals in the Libertadores. But he also tripped over his own feat and let balls go out of bounds that my grandma could have probably controlled. I am not going to say anything bad about the Brazilian league just because he and Berrio are looking good there. For the most part Brazilian teams know how to attack in that league, circulate the ball and give good service to their strikers.(Especially in the air.) Copete seems to be taking advantage of that good service and has built up his confidence.
