    @Stric Have you actually watched Rakitic this season? If he isn't good enough like you say why were Real Madrid, Atletico, Man Utd and Liverpool interested in him?

    @Flavia Great read.. Although sad for us. It goes into more detail about what everyone has been thinking the past few years.

    @Luftstalag14 It's only 2.5 games less in a team with a lot less attacking options for him to pass to.....

    @zanela To reiterate my argument.. How can Rakitic show his through ball ability consistently with Bacca or Gameiro as a lone striker for the majority of games? The limited times he has had the chance to prove his through balls and vision he has. @Semi-Neutral I don't know why you brought...

    @zanela Had you actually seen that through ball before? The fact you asked for proof of his through balls and he did this only last month makes me think you do not actually watch Sevilla or Rakitic for that matter?

    @spark Of course Europa League isn't an amazing cup.. but to say that you don't have to be mentally strong for it just because it is not the "Champions League" is naive. I was mainly talking about his ability in big games and how harder opponents do not phase him. I think Fabregas' lack of...

    @Maria LOL! you think Carlos Bacca gives as many opportunities for through balls as Barca's attack? To carry on from that.... you think Sevilla's attack gives as many opportunities for through balls as Bergkamp/Ljungberg/Henry/Adebayor/Van Persie????????

    @spark So based on Cesc scoring two penalties under pressure he has proved himself? I think that is probably the LAST thing on earth Barca look at when looking at Cesc. He has proved he can't play in the big games, he looks lost.

    @Semi-Neutral WTF? lol!! I said that players who come to Barca will be better than there previous team which is 9/10 correct. Would Crouch be better at Barca than Stoke? YES. Why the hell are you suggesting that I think they should sign anyone even Crouch?? lol

    @Maria So you think Fabregas would get as many successful through balls if he was playing at Sevilla with Carlos Bacca as a lone striker?? lol Rakitic's mentality is the least thing you should worry about. Winning the Europa League for a start........ and this....... He has proved whatever...

    @Semi-Neutral You took that out of context.. We are talking about Rakitic coming from a mediocre team. Sevilla are no Real Madrid. That's why I followed on by saying the chances are slim that Rakitic would be worse at Barca.

    @Semi-Neutral So you think a player who plays in the same league would come to Barca and play worse? lol the chance of Rakitic coming to Barca and not being as good as at Sevilla is actually laughable. @iamrohith Have you watched him this season? Or just the YouTube Videos? Yes a lot of his...

    @iamrohith How is it a huge gamble?? A player who has proven himself in La Liga already.. coming to a better team with better players around him?

    Ivan Rakitić

    @iamrohith That was in relation the stats what were posted.. How can he have good through ball stats with Carlos Bacca up front as a lone striker for a lot of games? If he had Messi/Neymar/Alexis/Pedro in front of him he would be able to show his ability more.

    Ivan Rakitić

    Also Rakitic doesn't have Messi/Neymar/Alexis/Pedro in front of him at Sevilla so how is he meant to make as many through balls as Cesc? Anyone who has watched Sevilla this season will know how good he is.. he just needs a better team around him to shine..

    @Co0ter Yeah not a DM at all buddy.. Awesome CM/CAM.. I am certain he will be a success.

    Wow! Can't believe there is belief that Cesc is faster than Rakitic.. I'm not saying Rakitic is fast but Cesc is DEFINITELY the slowest Barca player on the pitch when he plays.

    @dakt Agreed to a point but Barca were terribly slow last season on counter attacks. They allowed the opposing team to get 10 men back behind the ball by the time Barca had countered. Rakitic moves the ball quickly out of defence because of his vision and passing. Long balls don't necessarily...
