It’s the bank holiday, Ramadan, Passover, Easter weekend (did I miss any?!) and I have a lot of cleanup to do. There are currently five (5!) posts in various stages of fact-checking and editing including today’s scouting report for Peru’s Club Cienciano. Next up are Scouting Reports for Argentine clubs Argentinos Junior and River Plate, and GK reports for both the Eastern and Western Conferences in Major League Soccer. I’ll get as many of them in your inboxes over the weekend as possible and, of course, they’re all available in the archives to revisit at your leisure.

I am always curious to see if the players that Sorare picks for their club release announcements are actually the players you want to target in the New Card auctions. Today’s quintet are all scouted below, but as you’ll see they’re not all cards I’m rushing out to add.

Miguel Vargas, G (age 25)

WE HAVE A GOALKEEPER ASSIST. I REPEAT, GOALKEEPER ASSIST. It’s not just that the Chilean has an assist, it’s that he’s played all nine Sorare scored matches in 2022. From those starts, he’s posted three clean sheets, which have contributed to the bulk of his scoring.

In addition to the assist he has one penalty save, making his three biggest scores the first three games of the season (both CS, pen save and assist). Since then, it’s been rough sledding with five of six matches resulting in scores below 40. Prices in the early bidding holding around 0.400 Ξ.

Both Juniors Barbieri (age 26) and Patrick Zubczuk (age 27) have been on the bench this season, but neither has made a league appearance. As recently as 2020 Zubczuk was the starter for U César Vallejo where he made 25 starts allowing 20 goals and recording nine clean sheets. 3DA 0.0579 Ξ is too high with auctions closing as low as 0.04 Ξ. Barbieri did make five top flight starts for Cienciado last season. He allowed just six goals but failed to record a clean sheet. 3DA 0.0238 Ξ. Zubczuk would be my choice as back-up but neither is so inexpensive to merit speculative adds.
