    Incredibly poor first touch today, offered nothing at all to the midfield and attack.

    Let's talk about Xavi's replacement (2024)

    Not convinced about Flick. He had immense succes with Bayern, but with an absolutely stacked squad suited to high pace vertical football. Given how our current squad doesn't fit that at all, and how he hasn't shown any tactical flexibility or adaptability to squads that aren't absolutely full of...

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Nice goal, really clean strike. And saved us from another stresfull ending to Copa game. He is however our best paid defender, and has almost triple the salary of Araujo if I recall correctly. So rightfully, much is expected of him. He hasn't been convincing at CB however and is maybe the...

    CL Round 6: Antwerp - Barca 3-2

    Incredibly chaotic game. Poor touches and decisions all over.

    4 - Ronald Araújo

    Obviously we had better pull 10-15 years ago playin the best football in the world with worlds best player in the team. No chance a treble-winner and team captain like Gundogan leaves City to spend his last good years at Tottenham tho.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    What exactly is the deal with Temptation and Lewandowski? Is this some sort of coping mechanism regarding the fact that "RL9" couldnt even hit a simple header with his forehead in crucial moment against Girona? Most people here on the forum were excited about his arrival and had high hopes for...

    Congrats to this guy on the birth of his second child!:)

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Yeah, order should have been the other way around basically. Koundé is not worth an extra 50% in wages compared to Inigo and Christensen. Especially not with our current salary cap issues. Don't think he´d be missed if we sold him.

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Feel the same. He's been directly involved in most of the early goals we've conceded. Can't see us go far in the CL knockouts (not that we're good enough generally either) with him at CB. Quality opposition will punish his mistakes.

    23 - Jules Kounde

    But wouldn't Christensens wages be considerably high as well considering he was a free transfer?

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Why is this guy playing CB in important games for us again? He's had way more shaky moments in the last 3 months than AC has since he arrived more than a year ago. Already trust Inigo more and he offers more passing wise aswell. Might be that he has a higher ceiling than Christensen or Inigo...

    CL Round 5: Barca - Porto 2-1

    What exactly has Koundé done to deserve to start important games at CB? Don't see what he does better than Inigo, AC or Araujo

    6 - Gavi

    The 2 brightest prospects to emerge at this club has both been terribly mismanaged with their injuries, and now the 3rd youngster has snapped his ACL and damaged his lateral meniscus. Pedri was terribly overplayed at a young age, and has since been managed poorly and rushed back from injuries...

    Yup. Sinner a complete shadow of himself. Was clearly affected by the pressure, he didn't play this bad for months.

    Aitana is soo smooth with it. shame that one hit the post. Team really playing some nice football

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Still yet to see a CB pairing with Koundé be as solid as the Araujo - Christensen partnership was last season in majority of games. As others pointed out, better teams than Sociedad are bound to capitalize on one of his mistakes in the CL knockouts. Feels a bit as if Xavi might be playing...

    Liga Round 8: Barca - Sevilla 1-0

    Think it's more due to missing both Frenkie and Pedri. Two out of Pedri, Frenkie and Gundo will give us plenty control in 90% of matches. Likes of Gavi, Fermin and Raphinha are good players, but not on the same level on the ball.
