    Hans-Dieter Flick

    It doesn't matter what Flick does ; it will never be enough to prove himself to people on here. We are going to have a successful season and it will simply be tarred by excuses and explanations of why this season wasn't actually that good.

    Benjamin Šeško

    Having high xG is a good indication of a top striker, all the top strikers have this characteristic. Even when they are at relatively bad teams. Finishing is only one part of scoring goals, but the xG can reflect their movement, physicality and intelligence. If his xG is low in Bundesliga that...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    We can't really afford to gamble in this position. We need to get a guaranteed top replacement or at least multiple good options to minimise the risk of failure. The striker in this team will get a shit ton of chances especially if they are fast. Lewandowski is performing admirably but I worry...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Doing more than enough this season. More than enough. Very impressive season and making the transfer look well worth it despite high wages. As Porque says, this attack needs as a matter of urgency to secure a top 9 to replace him.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    We are lucky that this season no team is stepping up to run away with it. Everyone, as well as us, are making mistakes, and dropping points frequently, so there will always be chances to enter 1st if you put some wins together. I also feel that one of Flick's mistakes was pushing Araujo and...

    6 - Gavi

    Not really sure that he plays over Fermin either. Fermin seems to have a clear role and you can see what you get out of him. Good player who tries to stick to his strengths. Gavi right now doesn't look like he has any position where he is adding to the team. He is trying to play in a way that...

    6 - Gavi

    Something is messed up with his running mechanics, they are really inefficient. Only using quads basically and really short steps which is a very tiring way to run and limits his top speed. On the surface he looks like he would be a decent enough athlete but despite being in good shape he's so...

    16 - Fermín López

    Really like that he seems to know his role and understand his limitations. He tries to stick to doing what he knows he can do rather than what he can't. As long as we don't receive a big offer for him he'll be useful. He is a different profile and a big change of pace.

    6 - Gavi

    Gavi and Pedri have no real comparison or parallels. Pedri demonstrated world-class creativity and technical ability from the off. Gavi's game awareness isn't even close and he is much worse on the ball. The problem is, he isn't athletically better either, or defensively. At this point its...

    6 - Gavi

    Team improved a lot when he came off. Hasn't had many good games this season.

    16 - Fermín López

    Don't think we'd get half that. We would snap their hand off for 70m.

    Nico Gonzalez

    I say this so many times but giving players a chance to shine in developmental leagues is the best thing you can do for their value. Putting them straight into a top5 league at young ages will tank their value if they are seen to fail. Clubs still believe in statistics and performances in...

    Nico Gonzalez

    I don't think buybacks work in that way exactly, it depends on the structure of it but in general a buyback is just a special release clause. It doesn't mean the player has to accept it.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    People act like 30 goals in January is something to take for granted. As the wise man said here, you won't find any 9 below 100 million who can do that.

    6 - Gavi

    What matters is the results on the field to be honest, in the end nobody will remember Gavi doing circus acts during the game.

    Premier League 24/25

    Depends when. But I don't think Pep would return to this Barca. The squad is not good enough. He has a sparkling legacy and if he were to fail here, however unlikely, it might stain his career.

    Premier League 24/25

    As Jamdav says, they will never sack him regardless, he has won 4 Prems in a row, it would take another 4 seasons of this to be sacked.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Hard to complain about what he is giving despite his age. From his perspective as 37 year old striker, there is nothing more we can demand, genuinely.
