That "wrong position" is the position he was signed to help us in. When Rafinha got injured we tried to register Arda to take his place in midfield.
Arda was signed to be a superstar addition to our midfield but he's just a semi decent backup at LW.
I don't get it, the team doesn't have a competent RB, it really wouldn't hurt anyone to at least pretend we have a B team. Palencia would be just as big a risk as Cancelo would be, but if he fails we won't have another 30-40m wasted and another useless nobody filling up our bench.
Yes, he did.
Anyone who really wants to try and deflect the blame onto MSN for missing chances has got to be incredibly deluded or just blinded by fanboyism to recognize just how awful a decision Arda's foul was.
That wasn't the only foul of the game, nor was it Arda's only foul. It was just...
One thing I never understood is how football fans can blame their forwards for dropped points because of missed chances, but totally ignore missed chances from the other side. Misses that happened 30+ minutes ago are irrelevant to the fact that Arda conceded an idiotic foul that put us in an...
I didn't, actually. Was he really that much worse? What I've seen from Jasper gives me the impression we just signed someone to stand in goal and discourage longshots.
Neither one has really seen much playing time but the time Jasper's seen has been against teams who rarely enter our final third so I don't think the difference is too great. Jasper is better in name only, in a similar way Paco was apparently such a huge upgrade over Munir. Even if Jasper is a...
Our starters were winning against Real Madrid, in case you're forgetting how the game went.
If we can't rely on the multi hat trick hero in the last five minutes of a game when his only instructions are "Don't foul" then he's useless, sorry. Rafinha or Denis would have been able to do the job...
The hell was he doing?
To be fair, I don't think there's really that much of a difference between the two. Neither are likely to contribute much if needed.
Well you probably can't find anyone saying that but he did have quite a good number of people supporting his signing because of how great his potential was.
I'd say Samper has a lot more potential than just being our next Rafinha. I've always maintained that at best he'd be a good backup for Busquets (Which we haven't had since Keita left really) and I still believe that is something achievable. Him being able to play at Granada is great and if...
I wouldn't say so, actually. It's changed pretty drastically, especially the women's division, which is hot off of the most heated feud I've ever seen in that division, and they've done quite a bit to shake up the world title picture.
