3 - Alejandro Balde

[jamrock]

Are you fat fucking me right now?

 

[JamDav1982]

Its a shambles for the balance of the squad and the money spent that the back up LB is Gerard.

They have not planned the squad well at all for the resources have to hand.

How can the squad be sitting with Casado as 4th best in only position he can play while Gerard is the back up LB.

The defence has been neglected too much.

 

[Masetro10]

Raphinha season is for sure over now. Balde basically covered the entire left side. Low key might be time to send out Rashford for 3 weeks since Raphinha is worthless without Balde

 

[serghei]

Just great.

 

[FCBarca]

Fortuitous timing with Intl break but a shame nevertheless

Due to nature of position and constant sprints, overlapping and defensive recoveries average FB endures 15-20 missed matches per season that makes a quality backup crucial

Not a popular choice among some but Flick prioritizes Gerard which is all that matters. Plus there is Jofre to bed in

 

[JamDav1982]

Doubt very much Flick prioritises Gerard.

He jusy doesnt believe he would be allowed to take anyone in if they sold him.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

We knew this was going to be problem. Just like last season overplaying Kounde and Balde. ****.

 

[ZenI]

Martin it is than, fuck! But we have to give Jofre some minutes too, test him out a little...

 

[Messi983]

No problems, Gerard and Bumsi have this.

 

[Barcaman]

No worries. Deco worked tirelessly entire summer on squad planning. As did Laporta. Catalan "journalists" told me so.

 

[JamDav1982]

They will tell us 'Barca never fail to register players'.

What did that take this summer?

• Inigo leaving for free late in window to shock of Flick.
• MATS falling out with club and his injury freeing up FFP... FFP space that will be a hit on 26/27 space.. more pushing issue down the line.
• Taking 11m for 50% of Trincao who will most likely got for a lot more in a year or so... More future FFP hit.
• Refiancing the terrible contract they had given to Fati.. so he will now be getting paid longer by the club should he stay...More pushing issues down the line.

All this from a summer Laporta lied to fans about being back to 1:1 and working on big transfer the fans want.

Non stop lies and must wear down Flick.

 

[Raketa10]

This dude managed to get injured during international break while not being called up by Spain NT. FASCINATING!

That being said. We definitely need to strengthen our defence with new world class CB and LB.

 

[draconifire]

To all the people who said having Jofre and Martin as the backup is more than enough.

Well here you go, I hope you are right now.

 

[Porque]

No way Flick goes with Waffles with the first two games being Valencia in his living room and Newcastle away.

It will be Martin and then he probably stays there with Jofre going to the B team this weekend for rhythm.

 

[Devils]

No worries. Deco worked tirelessly entire summer on squad planning. As did Laporta. Catalan "journalists" told me so.

The Laporta fanatic fans did too.

Imagine being so delusional to praise these morons.

This summer nothing short of a disaster and embarrassment on all fronts from Laporta and co.
