Unlikely transfer and he is a madridista. If I remember right Barca were already in for him and it didn’t work out. Barca already made their big money bet on a wonder kid and it’s Dembele.
Too expensive unfortunately. Also buying him for that price would mean he would be an undisputed starter. I only want a workhorse to defend leads, rotate, play in tough away games. The base style should be classic Barca football.
No need to fear. Coutinho is world class and will play in the CL this season, replacing Iniesta who didn’t have the legs anymore. Te early signs are looking good for Arthur aswell.
True, but those players are prone to complacency and mental lapses. Don’t underestimate the importance of psychology. Real have had Ramos and Ronaldo to motivate their players. When Barca last won it Dani Alves and Xavi were around.
This “Pashtun” you make fun of was missing against Roma away leg. The team is full of mentally weak players. If the players didn’t mentally crumble Barca would have made it through.
Barca have bought youth with technical ability nd I’m happy with those signings. Someone like de Jong can also arrive next summer. The future looks good in that area.
A role player like Vidal is at this point in his career serves a good purpose in the squad and if managed properly will be a...
He is technical enough for the role he will play. He provides variety and other qualities to complete the squad imo. Also age is a positive, you need experience especially with all the youth entering the club.
How does vidal arriving mean a 4-4-2 is certain? He can play in and is better suited to a 4-3-3. Playing a 4-4-2 in the wrong situation or not managing minutes properly is down to valverde. It’s a good transfer.
You’re lying if you say he isn’t a great player to have in your SQUAD. It’s up to valverde to properly manage the minutes of all players.
Any team can use an experienced workrhorse that defends well and is a goal threat. Fights hard for the team.
A world class workhorse that combines stamina, physicality, defending and skill. A better version of paulinho.
Injury prone and past his prime but exactly the type of workhorse you want in your squad
Looks like a great player. Potentially no need for Thiago now. The overrated injury merchant.
He reminds me of Xavi, that’s the biggest compliment I can give to a footballer
