    Ronald Koeman

    Busi should not be considered a starter in this squad. He was never fit for a double pivot. Moreover he is a freaking turtle nowadays. I don't know what Pjanic can bring, but I would much rather se Puig there alongside FDJ (who has been arguably way worse tha Puig but for some reason is...

    Ronald Koeman

    Messi can bring one on one take ons, consistent goal scoring, FKs and godlike assists. Coutinho has a great right long shot that he manages to pull of a couple of times per game, and some good close range passing and close space dribbling. Dembele is so fast on acceleration he can create (and...

    Mavericky Puig

    That system can't be the only one they works though. What I'd we have to revert to 4-3-3? No versatility.

    Sergi Roberto

    #NotARightBackButAMidfielder gonna play right back again this season. Astonishing squad planning!!

    Pep Guardiola

    Semedo, Bob, Pique, Busquets, Griezmann, Firpo, Alena, Braith cannot be considered part of one of the best squads.

    Miralem Pjanic

    The reason Puig will get thrown out. Let's hope he gives us something in return.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    The pure pace of that man is unbelievable. Guess that's why his muscles get torn apart every season. It's a shame that Fati doesn't have that pace..

    Mavericky Puig

    Forget about Puig being fit for koemans system. Let's say he is not and that why he doesn't count on him. Ok thus far. How the hell is Alena good for that system? Puig is a level above Alena at everything. So it really doesn't make sense if Puig goes but Alena stays. Bad decision in my opinion.

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    Odd one from the attack is Griezboy. Messi, Cout, Fati, Dembele, Trincao. A combination of those should play up front.

    Mavericky Puig

    Much better than Alena. Perhaps a minor injury??

    Lionel Messi - v7

    No one says the front 2 shouldn't be doing more defensively. Suarez even pressured pretty hard in the second half but to no avail, because there is no system in place to press as a team. @Sergei, you provide images almost a minute before an action. We can see after the initial image (the one...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I say they had nothing to do because the didn't. I am not speaking theoretically. Check out the goals. Literally 4 defensive mistakes without pressure. In theory yes, the defense does take more pressure without forwards contributing much. Our forwards should so much more work. Just don't put...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    So for left we only have Fati? Right wing is dembele and trincao. Messi will play centrally.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I could repost and repost and repost the analysis for our first half against Bayern and people here would still ignore it and blame our defensive blunders on Messi and Suarez, who had nothing to do with the goals conceded. We all get the concept of "the whole team defends". Yes, that would make...

    Do you have any more information that could be useful?

    Gini Wijnaldum

    I am not sure how 2 people covering the same distance over the same time span can have different workrate. Busi and raki are not explosive, but the are both worhorses. If their outcome is good or not, depends on other factors, not them not trying.

    Gini Wijnaldum

    I don't think you get what he said. 2 players running 10km in 90m during a football game, means the are pretty much doing the same work. You can't claim one is "joging" and the other is "running" because then the couldn't possibly get the same km in the same time frame, except if one of those...

    Gini Wijnaldum

    I saw him yesterday. He seemed really slow. I could be wrong.

    Gini Wijnaldum

    People who think Busi is slow are in for a treat when we sign Wijnaldum..
