10 - Lionel Messi - V6
Messi had more touches at Anfield than any Liverpool player except for Milner and Trent. He took 5 of our shots and had 3 key passes for our other ones. 2 of those key passes were dagger through balls past VVD to set Alba/Suarez through and they missed a clear 1v1. All of his shots were really... -
10 - Lionel Messi - V6
The difference is that when Ronaldo doesn't show up (3 out of 4 CL finals with RM), he doesn't get punished for it with his team losing. That is the key characteristic of Barcelona. If Messi is not 10/10 in every game, the team manages to capitulate even the most surefire advantages. With the... -
João Félix
Atleti have spent years building their squad level by level with a mix of good players and some elite players. The core they had is getting recycled now and I think they're trying to take one more step up by investing in a potential 'generational' talent to be the centerpiece. Paying 120m for a...- DonAndres

10 - Lionel Messi - V6
Messi was running/moving quite a bit during 18/19. There were practically no games where he struggled to make himself available and have a profound presence in our offense, even the Anfield game (he created or took every single shot we had in that game). He was super invested in winning the... -
Arthur
I noticed that too, but the writing manner differs in some ways. I kinda miss Jamdav, he was always good for a laugh. Double spacing every line, providing us with meme material. Even then, I think he wasn't crazy enough to spew the nonsensical shite I've seen from Tackle. Tackle is even more...- DonAndres

Arthur
Tackle is insanely deluded. The Anatoly Dyatlov of this forum. Imagine berating others for low level arguments and pseudo-intelligence and then posting a false equivalence as simple minded as Rakitic = .5 key passes Arthur = .5 key passes Q.E.D they are both equal in terms of creativity...- DonAndres

Antoine Griezmann
Every single executive needs to get booted if we can't manage to even sell Coutinho. Bartomeu said after the Liverpool defeat that there would be serious changes, and is instead backtracking to keep as many things the same as possible. At bare minimum we should've sold Coutinho and Rakitic...- DonAndres

Ivan Rakitić
Holy cognitive dissonance :lol: BBZ is a 50% mix between a random word generator bot with his cookie cutter essays and 50% Donald Trump-esque short term memory loss. Which is it? Arthur is shit in la liga against parked buses or shit against high pressure CL teams? What you're really just trying...- DonAndres

Trent Alexander-Arnold
I agree. Alves was on another level and for me, easily the GOAT right back in his prime. However there haven't been any truly great RB's that have come since him, only Kimmich and Arnold come to mind (Carvajal is not that good). Both have had superb seasons but Arnold won the CL and had one of...- DonAndres

Trent Alexander-Arnold
He's had the best season for a RB I've seen since prime Alves years. He gave one of the truly historical CL performances against us at Anfield, and had 15 assists in league + CL. He and Kimmich are both pure class, and Arnold is freaking 20 years old. Klopp has to get a lot of credit because...- DonAndres

Matthijs de Ligt
We should give De Ligt a fair offer, but more importantly get rid of the expensive dead wood on our roster. Rakitic and Coutinho must be sold to make room for the new players entering the team. One reason is to make space in our wage structure. Another is that Valverde will undoubtedly give them...- DonAndres

10 - Lionel Messi - V6
Di Maria or Lautaro Martinez for Matias Suarez. Big mistake that Correa wasn't called up as he's a great player. Shame Lanzini wasn't called up (is he still not fit after his injury?) but Paredes is at least alright, and Lo Celso is looking like one of Messi's best partners for Argentina in... -
Frenkie de Jong
Best midfielder in the world right now. He made the CL squad of the season and was easily better throughout every stage than the other midfielders in that list. De Bruyne spent way too much time injured. Pirlo and Redknapp have recently praised him as the best CM in the world and I agree with... -
Neymar Jr.
Bad use of money, and wtf are we gonna do with Coutinho? He needs to be sold, not Dembele. Neymar had 2 Jones' fractures in 2 years which is massively career altering, he's a selfish black hole on offense that will immediately take away too many touches from Messi, and he's declining. Of...- DonAndres

Ivan Rakitić
Arizona Scott and BBZ8800 are mind numbingly off the mark claiming that any stats have Rakitic as the #1 or #2 midfielder in the squad. Fuck your sofascore or Whoscored ratings lol. Do you believe that Adnan Januzaj is better than Modric? Or the likes of Rochina/Marc Roca/etc. are better than...- DonAndres

Ernesto Valverde - V1
Nah, expectation vs result. We have 4-0 Liverpool, 3-0 Roma, 4-0 PSG, 3-0 Juve, 2-0 Atletico, and you can add a few years behind the treble with 7-0 Bayern and 1-0 Atletico. Of course, we did have that one year of success. But our squad has been by FAR better than PSG every year, and getting... -
Ernesto Valverde - V1
PSG are wayyyyy less of a joke. As long as Mbappe keeps reiterating his desire to stay they have a long future to keep trying and getting things right. We are literally killing the latter half of Messi's career -

Guys this is like Game of Thrones Season 8 Just detach, accept that its all pure banter/memes now, and have a laugh. I can't even be hurt anymore, this shit is too funny. I respect the hell out of EV, never seen a troll so effective and masterful in his work. Count me in as one of his stans. -

What Barca needs now more than ever is a group of Ultras and a large supply of baseball bats. -
Ivan Rakitić
Get this garbage bum out of the club lol. Past 2 years he's been a not top 50 midfielder in the world who's been rated as if he was top 5. Absolutely ridiculous the amount of credit he got for being a non-existent can in the midfield.- DonAndres
