    La Liga Round 17: Betis - Barca 2-2

    Fear clauses are one of the lamest things, and honestly it should be abandoned in football. Glad we don't make a big deal of it.

    La Liga Round 17: Betis - Barca 2-2

    Betis are in a bad form tbh, they made some bad transfers in 2024. But is never an easy game in Sevilla

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    I don't think the team us dependent on him. But we have 4 attacker unit (Raph, Olmo, Lamine & Lewa) in a team that lacks product from fullbacks and have no attacking depth. Missing any two of those 4, immediately makes us a toothless lethargic team. We are dependent on those 4.

    7 - Ferran Torres

    He is a bust, we know that. But he is the best backup attacker we have, by good margin. Sadly

    Good game for his confidence

    La Liga Round 16: Mallorca - Barca 1-5

    I was hoping for Eric Garcia to start tbh. CB are desperate for rest.

    David Villa

    He was great until he got his leg destroyed while playing for our club, then we pushed him out to save his salary. I will always remember his time fondly, and will always feel we were stupid not to go for him instead of Ibra in 2009

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    Well, it is likely less than the saved wages, so it is a net positive. But yeah, it makes zero sense to let him for free.

    Nico Gonzalez

    We will need to sell Gavi too in such case tbh. While I believe Gavi still struggle to identify a certain clear position in midfield, in double pivot he is Pedri backup when Frenkie leaves. Will be a spit in the face if we bring back Nico after selling Frenkie.

    Xavi Hernández

    In Xavi defense, Casado developed a lot in the last season, and he plays far better in CDM. Casado actually can't bring the ball from the back and we rely a lot on Pedri in that regard. Xavi system didn't have double pivot and Casado would have looked terrible in it. Could argue that Xavi...

    Aurelien Tchouameni

    Was it Bojan Sr or Junior?

    La Liga 24/25

    They have won La Liga in 2021. he is talking about Atletico Madrid, not Bilbao

    Copa Libertadores

    Luiz Henrique scored a goal and earned a penalty for the 2nd goal. Looked good with Betis, and is one of their best players. One would have hoped such players could be kept in Liga tbh

    20 - Dani Olmo

    Fermin and Torre should be before anyone from Barca B, but with 2 wingers in front of them. Then Torres as winger and Raphinha as 10, assuming Lamine is healthy. Then when we need an AM, try Unai, who is at this point is far better than Guille, who looked like we rushed promoting him to B team.

    6 - Gavi

    4231 brings the best of both Casado and Pedri, 433 will likely make them worse. It isn't worth it tbh, 433 should have been dead the moment Busquets was out of the club. This is Pedri's midfield now.

    Deco

    Celtics can veto that

    Deco

    I hope that for once, he will make Barca go for depth rather than just another high profile starter. Fix depth on the wings, fullbacks and GK. We will be miles better.

    La Liga 24/25

    Just realizes that former La Masia kids Matue Morey and Robert Navarro are starting for Mallorca. Valancia looks decent. Gaya seems to help them to be accountable

    Kylian Muppet

    Yeah, I've to disagree too. Mbappe was never a consistent demon, he was always hot and cold. Even in the World Cup, Griezmann was better player until the semis. A stupid decision by Otamendi and he was suddenly the hero of France and had great world cup. This is the same from what we have seen...

    Only "small" one is Pedri, and as you say he is playing the Thiago role. Casado too, but that's due to Bernal injury
