I'd love this guy here . He's so different to anything we already have and that's always a plus .
Fabulous touch and vision , so inventive ... price reportedly reduced today to round £100 million :)
So you're thinking that Rakitic will still be a starter ?
You mentioned him alongside Arthur but then how are we gonna fit those two plus Couthinho plus Busqs plus Messi & Suarez and Dembele & Malcom. ?
That's before we get another player in ... Willan ??
You make some good points ..
As I said , in that set up , I'd drop Suarez to impact sub and play a rampaging , interchangeable , front two of Dembele and Malcom with Messi playing slightly deeper than them and more central . I'd also have Arthur in place of Rakitic ...
That would be a no !
We play much better when Busqs plays , when he's missing we look lost somehow.. he's been my favourite Barca player since Ronaldinho left us
Looking good ..
Arthur in midfield with Coutinho - Messi central and slightly forwards and then Busks behind them .
Front two interchangeable forwards Dembele and Malcom :)
Rafina said the same thing about Arthur controlling the ball like Xavi ..
We've been here before ... We were gifted the league buy the horrendous starts the other two had . Nobody cares bout the Copa del Whatsit . We didn't play the lovely football we've got used to seeing and were embarrassed in the Champion's League ...
Also why do you get so stressed when...
Won't win anything this season with Roberto and Rakitic in tandem .
I can't think of a weaker pairing anywhere around.
Even Suarez shouldn't be starting for us .
