Apart from Yamal and Lewandowski, none of our players would start in a midtable EPL team.
Raphinha and Cubarsi would play 50% of the games.
Our defense is miles away from beeing CL winning level.
To slow and bad 1v1, Kounde and Balde got rounded like trafic cones against Monaco and easily...
I think this CL format will be a wakeup call for many Barcelona fans of Barcelonas real level right now.
Then again, people will probably just blame the coach like they always do, not the weak squad.
Weak defence and poor goalkeeping.
Kounde and Balde got rounded like trafic cones.
10 men didnt help.
Lewandowski and Raphina really bad in attack.
Cubarsi and Yamal, our youngest players, carrying the team.
Kinda says how weak the rest of the team is.
Other clubs are starting to take advantage knowing we loan out all our players.
They dont offer any buyout and just waits until we get desperate and make a loan offer.
Araujo was horrible against big teams and costs us CL advancement.
Its not hard beeing the best defender when everyone else is even worse.
Kounde, Araujo, XX, Balde is a really weak defence and its even worse now without Cancelo.
Another problem this and the previous board has created.
Raphinha, FDJ, Ferran, Lenglet..and more.
Players that wont leave becouse of salary.
But we cant even sell the players without huge wages.
Even with Olmo i think we have a worse team right now than last year which was already weak.
We needed Fullbacks and got none and instead lost our best one in Cancelo (which i think is kinda meh in first place)
Lewandowski one year older and was already declining heavily last year.
Pedri and...
Raphinha cant dribble, looses posession and stop play way to much.
Key components for Barcelona attack on the wings.
Also hes always benched for Yamal which is much better.
Way to expensive to keep as a sub.
