    Mavericky Puig

    The midfielder roles in any system are far more similar than they are different. When the team has the ball, the role is to progress it towards attack and when the opponents have the ball, the role is to defend. Saying that the most attacking midifelder in a 4-3-3 doesn't really have to defend...

    Ronald Koeman

    There are definitely improvements to be excited about. The biggest one is probably putting Messi in the free, exogenous role which lets us defend as a solid collective unit without him causing holes. Having an actual winger that tracks back and exploits the flank in attack is a huge step up...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Wanna see how we do in actual competition before concluding that?

    Lionel Messi - v7

    So fucked up after Messi literally said that he hasn't been happy at the club for years and just wanted to find a bit of that for his last years.

    Mavericky Puig

    Thanks god that we have Pjanic then who is such a physical beast that he doesn't actually need to run anywhere. He will just jog around in his sublime positioning and his muscle mass alone will cause balls to gravitate towards him for MAXIMUM INTERCEPTIONS.

    Ronald Koeman

    He wants to play four primarily offensive players compared to Valverde's preferred two. That alone should give us some more exciting games.

    Mavericky Puig

    Some people on here really overestimate the importance of system templates. 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 4-4-2. They're canvases. You can't gain anything from discussing them in isolation. You can have a 4-4-2 with Dembele and Ansu on the wings and a 4-4-2 with Sergi Roberto and Vidal on the wings and they...

    If you take it for what it is, then I don't see an issue. They don't pretend to report the truth. Not everyone has time to monitor individual primary sources..

    Barcacentre isn't a news source, they track other sources.

    Mavericky Puig

    Don't buy your point about physique. Alena honestly seems to get wrestled off the ball much easier than Puig. Also falls over quite often. It's not just about muscle mass, it's about muscle fiber type, balance, level of activation in psoas, diaphragm, transverse abdominals. Looking at weight or...

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    imo there are things to be excited about that doesn't include intensity or workrate, like looking more balanced on the pitch, having more organic creativity, more diverse attacking options, this Messi role looking better for our defensive unit and so on.

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    I'd rather have Busi than Pjanic honestly, but Puig before both of them.

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    Well, how would you expect us to prove that we can take on good opponents in a game against a bad opponent?

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    Bit annoying that GKs had to pull out top saves to deny Pedri and Trincao goals. Would've have been great for confidence.

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    This is from watching Pjanic at Juve, not based on this game here.

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    Puig is easily more of an asset defensively than Pjanic. Covers more ground, quicker in tracking back. Has acceleration to deal with 1v1s.

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    Can't believe he got that nickname for scoring like one decent long shot pr. season

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    We've created loads of chances today. Would you say the same if it was 4-0?

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    Pjanic is a pretty vapid player. Outmoded type, there are really no space in football for his type anymore unless you have Xavi vision.

    Gamper: Barca - Elche 1-0

    Coutinhos pecs have gotten too hard in Bayern for that breast touch. Need a proper Brazilian beer boob for that one.
