Sergio Busquets

[FCBfan22]

Xavi has developed some kind of setup where Frenkie covers for his shortcomings (mainly speed and defending) a lot.

May his form continue.

Insane to see Busquets, Alba and Pique still starting Clasicos. (And with an Alves cameo :lol)

I wonder if Messi and Ramos watched the game. Funny thing is if they watched together that Ramos would probably be happy and Messi sad.

Still my favourite Barca player ... Pedri and Gavi getting close though

 

[soul24rage]

Great game.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

This was masterclass from him. He made zero mistake and great passing.

 

[Alik]

Xavi's greatest achievement.

There was a time 4 months ago, when I used to say "I see Sergio in away game, I don't see a win".

I still don't trust him these days for top end CL caliber opponents (Pool, Bayern, City, Chelsea), but he is still immense in the right setup. So, partial L to me.

 

[Vladinho]

Yeah, I'll take an L on Busi too

 

[MagIX]

great game again
it won't be easy to replace him

Xavi's greatest achievement.

Big overstatement since Lucho preceded Xavi in getting the best out of him.

He was proving the he isn't finished at the highest level with his performances at the Spanish NT.

Ability wise he is the best midfielder in the world without question, it's his body that is failing him.

So it all comes down to us not getting decent managers.

 

[Andresito]

He is a liability if a team knows how to exploit it. But when he's got good cover around him he's more than fine. Great game yesterday. Crisp passing and always available to bail his teammates out in tight areas.

His performance improved since he started getting subbed off in some of the games.

Good point. I haven't been following Spain lately, but well pointed out.
