    4 - Ronald Araújo

    I actually agree so no point debating. But from what I'm seeing, Bobo claims Xavi would weigh the risks (say pass A has 0,4 chances of failing, and pass B 0,55). He might try the former, but the latter would be a tad too much for him. That line was maybe lower for Xavi than other playmakers in...

    La Liga | Round 25: Sevilla - FC Barcelona 0-2

    Yeah, sure, but no matter the configuration, they'll be our front duo. And I'm not really sure how that would work.. in pretty much any setup. With Messi dropping deep, Dembele will often be the most forward-positioned one.

    La Liga | Round 25: Sevilla - FC Barcelona 0-2

    The front duo consisting of Messi and Dembele seems like an easy one to defend against. Hope it's not, but yeah, I won't keep my hopes high.

    The possibility of a pass failing to meet its destination. Xavi often had that in mind but managed such numbers of through balls and chances created due to exquisite creativity. Basically, that's Xavi pushing the brake pedal, his cost benefit analysis.

    Bobo talks about risk in passing, while the rest of us talk about creativity. And he's right in a sense. Xavi had an eye to execute the most exciting of passes with impeccable timing. But if anything, that goes in favor of Xavi's creativity. Arthur is a dull player, with no forward passing in...

    Also says "I'll make you an offer you cannot refuse" while hugging the mannequin. :lol: so trashy

    If one could've predicted all of Xavi's passes, he wouldn't have been much better than Arthur. And we all know Xavi wasn't a fraud. Even malvolio might agree. :coffee:

    Erling Haaland

    Would love to see us add to the problems like we did with Rakitic. More of that, please!

    Thanks. :) Should work on the wording, though. People might get the wrong message from it.

    Erling Haaland

    By the way, if he's an Englishman criticizing the taste of Spain's tap water, he's either strongly detached from reality or a troll. Forgive him if he's a Scot.

    Erling Haaland

    I think you might very well be right and Barca won't be able to do anything in the summer, but don't think it's all that clear, and more importantly, even if it is, can't see how we can be sure of it. Besides not knowing the details of the current debt, we don't know what the next president can...

    :lol: While I'm at it, didn't see it posted so here's an article: Barcelona presidential election: Candidates' blueprints for Nou Camp club. Basically Font, Laporta, and Freixa answer some questions. This one seemed interesting: Have any idea what assets is he talking about? Bold is mine.

    Xavi Hernández

    Regarding Koeman, few weeks ago I'd be telling the same, to give him another season. Bit flickery, yes, but right now, I don't see a direction with him. I thought he had one and was slowly turning things around. And it's not the results that worry me, as I don't have expectations in that regard...

    What's with this forum's Frenkie fetish?

    Overmars and Zorc are the ones mentioned by the media. Where did Jordi Cruyff come from?! It's a hopeless case this club.

    Xavi Hernández

    Hope he's not our next coach.

    Ronald Koeman

    Oh well, I concede, it is a terrible analogy. But it's also true in a sense that he might have all the right prerequisites, but lacks basics to make it work.

    Yes, you're right :thumbsup: I saw a quick replay and it looked worse.
