Lliga | Round 19: Real Sociedad - FC Barcelona 2-4

[Albo]

Come on, Gomes?

He has played well recently, if Valverde trusts that he will continue to do so I don't see why not.

gomes & paulinho for dempele & iniesta

 

[Windhook]

Gomes starts. Bye-bye 3 points.

 

[Joan]

Gomes seems to be Valverde's soft spot

Iniesta played too much against Celta

 

[JamDav1982]

Iniesta looked leggy against Celta in midweek not surprised he has been benched really.

I agree with that with the exception of his aerial play, which is still shit.

This is the Anoeta, mind you. Just bcos he played well against Celta, doesnt mean he shud start every game. Iniesta shud be up there.

 

[Joan]

if this doesn't boost his confidence, nothing will

 

[ThwiX]

No Dembele......

Iniesta was poor vs Celta and looked knackered.

There is no way he is starting just because played well v Celta anyway.

 

[Ousmane Dembélé]

I don't think we're going to get Dembouz integrated in time for the CL Round of 16 at this rate.

Looks like Valverde has decided to stick with his winning formula for this season, let's see if it pays off.

As [MENTION=6099]JamDav1982[/MENTION] stated, Iniesta looked a bit tired against Celta. Even if we lose this, preserving Iniesta is far more important in the long run.

 

[MessiTHEgoat]

Gomes went from almost leaving to becoming Valverde's new love now.

Great.

they say he's the last to leave the training center and he even hired a special nutritionist to help him.

he's probably working his ass off hard in training to get that kind of confidence despite the critism he's always getting.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Tired of Gomes. He is improving but still not good enough.
He is good enough to run with the pack when everything is going well but will never provide the needed spark when the team struggles.

U said Iniesta is poor and tats why he's benched then u said Gomes is starting not bcos he played well. So what is it really?
