Arthur with Frenkie should be good.
21 - Frenkie de Jong
- Thread starter DonAK
- Start date
Arthur with Frenkie should be good.
Our high running - high pressing Barca dream might come true, we have whole up and coming young squad which can be taught to press well and have fast transition.
MATs
Semedo - Todibo - Lenglet - Firpo
Arthur - FDJ - Alena/Puig
Messi - Griezmann - Dembele
Apart from Messi, everyone is a runner, young and can press well. All we need is someone like Klopp or Guardiola.

True. Good point. I think this is what we should aim to do. We are too slow now and predictable.

Their mods are Valverde and Bartomeu apologists.
They are so delusional that they still believe Valverde is the right man to lead Barca.
r/barca is filled with Valverde apologists because all the ones against EV are banned. I said some stuff that are anti-Valverde during the Copa final and I got permabanned. They're so sensitive over there its hilarious There are people over there who seriously think that Rakitic is better than Frenkie. I just cant believe how brainless some people are over there.

Glad i got banned from there, bunch of fucking retards.
Off topic, but we also have such people here.
That is true but over there, its the majority that think that while in here we only have people like BBZ and the occasional troll. I was reading the post match thread over there from last night's match and people thought that Rakitic was the best player on the pitch and that he should be in the starting lineup for the whole season lol. Its pretty funny to read their posts tbh. BBZ should join them.

Yup and someone posted and exposed that bias and agenda driven thread with more clips 😂
So Messi will stop ageing ? 😂 Firpo, Arthur and Alena/Puig, attacking teams will have a fun time with that line up

Attacking teams have fun with us already. Partly because we're not able to be attacking against them ourselves so there's no need to hold back like they used to.

I wrote a long post a while back about the reflexive reluctance towards brave short passes. Basically, my thesis was that our midfield was entering a self-sustaining collapse of creative output because we were cultivating a culture of discouraging playing brave short passes.
Basically, this is a very revealing juxtaposition between cultures where short passing is discouraged vs. encouraged.
The thing is, one new player doesn't change a culture, he assimilates. What we need is more of a rip out the roots and start again situation.
I didn't say this was the lineup we should use from the next match onwards.
It was more about indicating how our future team might look, and that it could be moulded into high running and high pressing team.
And Messi isn't getting younger, but he also isn't going anywhere for the next 4-5 years, hence the inclusion. And tbh, if the rest 9 players press hard to win the ball and run enough, a walking Messi won't be a problem at all.
