6 - Gavi

I'm thinking more like for like replacement. Starter In national team and top club, not factoring in his age. Though obviously if Gavi was 25 we wouldn't rate him the same.

To be fair the free market gave us a good midfielder in Kessie, and this will be an ongoing trend as highly rated players will want shorter contracts and more autonomy.

This will effect us, but also clubs like Liverpool who tried to maintain a salary structure which wouldn't work today for the length they kept Salah and Mane.

But in general we're not getting a player like Gavi for cheap.

(Watch this age poorly with Gavi moving to Liverpool and Pablo Torre end twice the player :lol:).

It's a no brainer what are you talking about? De jong for 85,? Or gavi for 50m?

Kick gavi out he becomes irrelevant, does not get called.upnfor nation team again either

Don't think so. He's a fighter with loads of energy, and Enrique loves those kinds of players so I think he'll call him up for the world cup regardless of if he leaves or stays. The kid also has nice skills and good eyes for pass

Gavi is very similar to Arturo Vidal. He also rushes around the field and is ready to attack, fight to the end. Vidal did not fit Barcelona.

But Gavi fits Spain and Barcelona. The bigger problem he has is timing with him and Pedri being so young.

Apart from some fleeting months of excellence, FdJ has also never fit.

But both could have much to do with the overall ethos of what surrounds them on the field.

0:25 - trips on himself very bull in china shop
0:48 - good pre-assist little pressure around him
1:38 - good steal
1:43 - bad through pass behind Sarabia's run
2:08 - dribbles bull in china shop with no foresight and passes directly into defender
2:18 - good easy through pass
2:25 - horrible pass to Sarabia

Just proved Catta's full of shit inverting assessments of Puig/Gavi.

There lot of weak fearful SDs and coaches in the world. Puig needs players like Fati, B. Silva, Busi, Mahrez, Messi to link intelligently with, not bulls in china shops like Vidal and Gavi.

No, he's just shit mate.

Not a professional either out all night partying with Pique. Good luck following him in Andorra and then a few years later for some obscure Nepali team.

Modric doesn't waste energy.

First Puig needs to play a game for Spain, to prove I'm full of shit. Call me when that happens.
