    Sergiño Dest

    I would argue Pedri is somewhat ready, but not for an undisputed starter. Same with Dest, he was put in a much bigger role than his after S.Roberto injury. It is mentally draining him, maybe physically too. They are 6th and 9th in minutes played in the squad, with Pedri being 2nd in...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Doubt anyone wanted him to last to his 4th year, at worst people would have preferred if he completed his 3rd season, because despite the fact that his cycle was over he was still far superior option than Setien I think people pointing out how people took what he achieved for granted. Since the...

    Ernesto Valverde

    He is actually a good coach, who was fired thanks to EV (and because he wasn't Zidane).

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Not necessary a 9 for me, if we can get a great winger who can score it can be ideal too. In 433 Messi has been the false 9 and has done really well there, if we have Fati and another winger it will be great. That being said, no idea who is that fuckin winger is :lol:

    4 - Ronald McDonald Araújo

    If you react too fast and tried to beat him from start, it will be easy for CF to stop moving and be left totally open. The defenders need to be reactionary and well timed there. That is extremely difficult with someone like Benzema, whom I would argue has one of the greatest positional...

    Jordi Alba

    To this day, I wonder why we don't? Honestly, I think it should be close to mandatory to be part of every professional sport team, at least at that level where there is too much pressure.

    Zinedine Zidane

    Elite, no doubt in my mind. Even if he doesn't win a thing this year, he has done well with that team.

    4 - Ronald McDonald Araújo

    Could have pressured Benzema better in 1st goal, but tbf it was great finish from frenchman Araujo is a physical CB, more than a technical one. The problem is that all 3 CB we started today was like that.

    Sergio Busquets

    Yeah, agree. I actually meant for midfield :lol:

    Óscar Mingueza

    Don't know, up till this morning I had same though, but he came big tonight and he is giving me doubts. He could turn to be our Pedro of defense, a guy coming out of nowhere and continue to prove doubters wrong as time goes.

    Martin Braithwaite

    Referee done him unjust

    Jordi Alba

    Sadly, he was still our biggest threat in attack.

    Clément Lenglet

    Didn't score OG or conceded a penalty, so I will take that as a win. That said he should be covering for Alba in this formation, which didn't happen at all.

    Sergio Busquets

    atm he is a small game player. We need to accept that and look for new DM, it should be priority.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Same. At the age of 24, he is not even a project. Even if he ever made it as top attacker, it isn't going to happen here.

    8 - Pedri

    You are saying it like being 18 is being a positive thing? Players at that age aren't ready for that amount of load mate, not until they are in their 20's at least. Hell, many players who has started their career at top level that young suffer many injuries, arguably because they aren't...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    You figure it out. Goal scorers are by far the most valuable assets in football, your chances to win is ridiculously linked to have world class attacker who can score 25+ (preferably 40) a year. Without that you are making things difficult for yourself from the start. Look at it like the NBA...

    Ronald Koeman

    You think we can Liga next year without Messi and without big signing to replace him? If yes, then I applaud you for your positivity. :hooray:

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Messi at 33 going 34 can't win a big game by himself or without serious help from the attack, we should know this by now. tbh I don't think anyone in the history really did that. Through last 4 seasons, his best help in attack was overweight Suarez. Fati first month this year would beat that if...

    Ronald Koeman

    His thing is youth movement, getting rid of many of the older guys and moving B-team players in. If no Messi, no Haland, we aren't winning shit next year anyway. Let Koemann take the heat for the rebuild and cleaning the house and bring a new guy in 2022 to start fresh with youth players who...
