    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Honestly fumbles the ball as much as Suarez did in his last season if not more. Does quite poorly most times he has the ball and turns potential opportunities into turnovers. Knew he would waste some chances along the way, but expected him to be better in hold up play and at combining with...

    Joshua Kimmich

    The thought of Frenkie and Kimmich in a doble pivot with pedri further up the pitch is quite exquisite. Have a hard time believing however that Bayern would let him go, not just because of how good he is, but with Neuer and soon Müller gone, he is one of their most important German players.

    15 - Andreas Christensen

    Our best summer signing without a doubt IMO. Fits Araujo and the club like a glove, cannot see how Araujo and Koundé would be a better CB pair. His main strenghts, Passing and positioning are Araujo´s weak points, and he is equally comfortable in both sides of the backline unlike Koundé and...

    15 - Andreas Christensen

    Well, thats part of the point. For me it seems to just as much how well our best 4 defenders compliment each other as much as their individual quality that make them good. If Kounde and Alonso our paired up at CB, it affects the whole backline. Let's see how it goes, but against RM with an...

    15 - Andreas Christensen

    I would say there's quite a bit of truth to claiming we've struggled without our best back 4. The two inter games without our back 4 fit, the bayern game, and our first game against ManU where Rashford visibly drifted towards Alonso and exploited his weakness. Also, Xavi will most likely keep...

    Nagelsmann has one the most annoying and arrogant faces to look at in world football atm

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Fumbles the ball in important situations, and his hold up play is below par. Expect him to atleast get a shot in when receiving the ball in the box with that much space, FDJ's pass was pretty accurate and clean too.

    Xavi Hernández

    Must admit I no longer consider Alba a good option against quality opponents in European competitions.

    Xavi Hernández

    He didnt rotate the teenagers who's played the most and consistenly runs the most, Pedri and Gavi. Only Balde who has played the least in our strongest back four. Christensen is a mature pro, played regularly at Chelsea for 6 years and played a CL final aswell as Semis in the Euros with...

    Xavi Hernández

    I see no reason why Balde shouldn?t have started. he could have rotated against cadiz instead, it was clear that our defensive insecurity was affecting the team all throughout the game until Balde and AC came on. Even switching Kounde and Araujo turned out to be the wrong choice, Kounde is...

    Xavi Hernández

    Really tried to tell everybody that he wasn't a new Lenglet or rich mans Lenglet or whatever people her were saying.

    Xavi Hernández

    Incredibly satisfying to finally see some speed on the team. Kounde and Christensen were almost the two most advanced players on the pitch, yet first ones back. Covered almost the whole pitch in something like 10 seconds. Beautiful.

    15 - Andreas Christensen

    Christensen has been consistently class whenever he hasn't been injured. Think people in here were unreasonably skeptical of him from the start, even tho it's true he's had some mental issues at times, it has affected very few games over the span of his carreer in top football so far. And even...

    Sergio Busquets

    He was slow in all aspects of the game until the first goal. Had poor awareness, quite a few poor passes and lost his duels. Grew into the game and played well later on tho, but really looked like the odd one out of Pedri, Gavi and FDJ who all started much better.

    8 - Pedri

    Tbh not that useful of a comparison. Demb?l? also left the pitch, and the match changed significantly, too many other factors could be at play. Other than that, hope Xavi keeps trying different midfield setups and formations without Busi and his special skills.

    Xavi Hernández

    Both De Jong and Dembouz were subbed off as a precaution due to some discomforts they had according to Xavi.

    15 - Andreas Christensen

    Definitely our most underrated signing so far. Not as aggressive or physically imposing as Araujo, but a smart guy with good awareness, enough speed and solid defending fundamentals. Like I said earlier, was an absolute no brainer on a free that would be a significant on all our defenders form...
