Question Loosey-goosey

adj. Slang.
relaxed; calm; unperturbed: Despite the pressure, he was loosey-goosey throughout the game.

Any good ideas to translate it into Spanish?

Obviously, relajado; tranquilo; impasible, impertérrito; sin inmutarse...

All these should be valid. But is there any good Spanish synonym with the rhyming sound, or some other alliterative quality?

In a Spanish slang register I thought also of "tranqui" as in "tranqui, colega, ya encontraremos una solución" or "tranqui, tronco..."

Anyone inspired?
