    Neymar Jr. - v5

    It's a tough comparison. I think the main difference between them, and the reason why Neymar will never reach the heights of Messi, is that Neymar is a player that sees an opportunity and takes it while Messi is a player that creates the opportunity itself. When the opportunity is there (time...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    Agree. Heavy marking on Messi is not something new. His new hobby is making it way harder for himself than it has to be.

    André Gomes

    When you could argue that playing a guy like Gomes' is a restraint on the development of our homegrowns, I think the booing is somewhat justified. It makes me feel big time bad for the guy, but how many of us would so much rather see Alena get some of those minutes? If it's his attitude that...

    Kylian Muppet

    Neither his general technical ability, ball control, composure or dribbling intelligence reaches nowhere near those heights of talent. He's fast as fuck with the ball, but I believe his aspiration to emulate the other Ronaldo on the ball will moderate his development of these areas. But I...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    Was looking at some of his statistics from back when he played as a false nine. He actually gets around the same number of touches in his current position as he did back then. It still seems like he was more involved back then, though. Good game today. Would have loved to see him score that one...

    Sergio Busquets

    I hate to say it, but his defensive positioning is pretty loose at the moment. Against Valencia he left some spaces open between him and the back three that were criminal. Just didn't look over his shoulder at all. Dybala will be all over him if he doesn't tidy up.

    Andrés Iniesta

    I think we can get away with having both him and Messi on at the same time, but it requires a serious improvement of the coherence in the defensive organization. It's easy to tell that as soon as the ball moves on the wing, then it's a judgement call who has to mark who. If the RCB has to go out...

    Ivan Rakitić

    Not the guy we need at the moment. He thrives in a healthy system with more dynamic players around him. When things go static, he's not capable of changing the status quo. If Unzue doesn't have a plan for him, then he should be sold instead of being a fringe player.

    Kylian Muppet

    Future RM kid for sure. Better start hating him. Amazing for his age, but I still think he's got limitations that will be much more visible in a tougher league. He would be wise to avoid PL.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    The "slip-up" rhetoric doesn't even apply to La Liga this season. In Sevilla and Atletico ties it's more likely than not that they will drop points, IMO. I'm more worried about how we will navigate through our own bumpy terrain in a dilapidated chariot. As other people said, we do need Messi to...

    Neymar Jr. - v5

    He still needs to seriously work on his finishing, but at this moment, his contribution in general play is worth more than Messi's, yeah. Can't believe that people are putting blame on him for the Depor game instead of the 11 people on the field showing no spirit or sense of responsibility...

    Hector Bellerin

    Of course there are other options. What about Pereira from Nice?

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    I don't know about this. I've been trying to read into what affects his mood the past few years and sometimes playing for Argentina can seriously light a spark in him that glows for a while. Best scenario is that he plays really fucking good for them. Medium good scenario is that he doesn't...

    André Gomes

    He hasn't started Masch in midfield once this season. Can't remember last two seasons. Can't imagine him not starting Gomes.

    Rafinha Alcantara

    How so? No patience, no vision, tendency to hide away. We're putting a small Brazillian guy in our offensive organization, and the only good thing we can say about him is that he works hard defensively. How little sense does that make? If that's what we're going for, then there are many players...

    Rafinha Alcantara

    I'm not saying that he's a long term solution, but he's better than Rafinha and has maybe 15-20% possibility of becoming world class one day. I think it's a little unfair to compare him to arguably the best player in the world in that age, by the way.

    Bernardo Silva

    You have to wonder how it's possible to be this fucking retarded. So many players want to play for our club who could be great assets and yet we go for the worst fucking choices everytime.

    Kylian Muppet

    Maybe not great, but there are a lot of young dribblers that can't finish at all. He had a good shot on him, you can't deny that, but maybe more down to shooting technique than finishing, yeah.

    Kylian Muppet

    Very similar player to Cristiano in his younger days. Great finisher, fast, runs straight at defenders, keeps his eyes on the ball. Not a natural dribbler, but gets around defenders relying on speed and cheap moves. Not very impressive passing or vision. Best trait is being able to run very...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    Next coach will likely get Messi's last prime years. It seems like too much to ask, but I feel like I need at least one more perfect season with Messi thriving. Then he can retire and I can watch compilations until my kids get old enough to appreciate the stories imma throw at them.
