    Thiago Translantara

    Probably not. Koke since he has a far bigger impact on Atletico than Thiago has for Bayern (even if both players are similar in level of ability). Thiago will have to solidify a spot for himself in this Bayern side and then show it on the biggest stage in the CL. Since Koke has been so...

    Thiago Translantara

    Both Alcantara brothers doing well right now, Thiago a step ahead of Kroos in Bayern's midfield vs Gladbach. He's been very good for Bayern since his return from injury and is proving that he is quality enough to get regular game time.

    Juan Manuel Mata

    BREAKING: Manchester United have reached an agreement with Chelsea for the transfer of Juan Mata for a club-record fee. (Source: @ManUtd) So it's official now, wish him well.

    Rafinha Alcantara

    1 assist and created 2 moves that led to goals vs Betis in the first half alone. He's really been shining recently, he's quite capable of fighting for time in our midfield because of his abilities (he starts deep and carries it forward as the team moves along, so he's not an out and out AM).

    Valencia

    Would be disappointing but I heard it's because he didn't match up to the more lucrative offers :lol: We can't know anything yet as Lim was the only bidder who went public with his intentions, the rest are still protected by confidentiality.

    İlkay Gündoğan

    Source? All I've heard is that his recovery is being delayed.

    Sandro Rosell

    I didn't bother taking word for word quotes from previous posts, the point was made to show how your logic on the situation works. The reason that debates with you always go in circles is like I said before, your method of believing evidence is that it all has to be official or quoted to be true...

    Sandro Rosell

    It's actually funny seeing how much Jamdav strains to turn a blind eye to every possible wrongdoing by the board and is so defensive in making rationalizations or excuses that are rife with naivety and denial. To paraphrase what has been said from others: Bartomeu makes two completely...

    Sergi Samper

    He's honing his abilities well but I don't think he's found the right role for himself yet. He plays as a pivot yet isn't great defensively and that furthers him from our passing play. If he were to push up, he'd need to develop more mobility and demand the ball more often. He doesn't have to be...

    You came right in time :lol: we'll see soon

    Sandro Rosell

    I won't believe it till there's anything official, too much speculative crap being thrown around by random sources.

    Manchester United

    Wow.... 6 games in 2014, 4 losses, and knocked out by Sunderland. United fans must really be on edge right now, the club have some serious patience to stick with Moyes the way this season has gone. Title winners to probably the worst performing "big" club in England.

    Sergi Roberto

    You're right and I hate to be such a naysayer on him but let's be honest and analyze the Roberto praise for a second. A lot of times people only applaud him for what they want him to be, not what he is. When he does something good on the ball, "He's better than Thiago, doesn't make sloppy...

    Sergi Roberto

    Having abnormally good off the ball intelligence like positioning is crucial for a defensive role like Busquets or with players making runs. Central midfielders having the movement to receive passes is completely basic, they need to be able to marshal our play and add some quality to it. An...

    Cristian Tello

    The thing with Robben is that while often frustrating, he can produce moments of brilliance despite his flaws. I'd compare Deulofeu last season to Robben, unbelievably talented but comes with a huge bag of unwanted traits to go along with it (although he's shaking them off). Tello, while he can...

    Sergi Roberto

    It's true. He functions as a passenger player but doesn't do much more than that. He can play in our midfield and not look too out of place, but I don't see what he adds to our play other than effort (which is good though). I don't see that there's anything we rely on him to do or create in a...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Our squad needs renovation but in a smart kind of way. Some members (barcanuck) have been right to mention that we don't have the same strength that we did a few years ago with players like Eto'o, Toure, etc. and now our team as a whole lacks edge in our game. The thing is, we don't need to rely...

    Juan Manuel Mata

    Both managers have a strong defensive system that would require him to track back, but Simeone takes a very different approach from Mou in handling his players. Turan was able to adapt and become a defensive beast in his system while retaining his attacking brilliance, same deal with Koke and...
