First match he only really had one or two moments, 2nd match he was better. Overall I'm not convinced yet considering even JDS was on his level both games, but he has a hardworking attitude so we'll see.

Inconsistent as he's been over the past year or two, he's certainly upped his performances recently. If anything the Bayern friendly was a bad example in terms of assessing how good he is, none of our forwards got any service, even Messi looked fairly uninvolved. We'll see how good he does with...

Moyes (coach Man United): "Barcelona repeated that Cesc not for sale? We will look at what's been said and we will consider what to do." :lol: :lol: :lol: Does this guy not understand how to respond to a flat out "no"?

Many have actually relaxed on his talent, nothing is definite about him until we see how he develops during this loan period. Deulofeu has unbelievable potential but he's also one of our least guaranteed talents. He'll definitely have pressure on him to perform and progress, but that's what...

Neymar-Messi-Alexis= Nemesis :pep:

Obviously the similarities are going to have a limit (Bayern sacrificing some beauty for pragmatic success, Dortmund being harder pressers than Madrid, etc.) but stylistically the counterparts would be Barca-Bayern and Real-Dortmund. If you wanted to bring morals and attitude into the mix, then...

Well before the Bayern transfer, even Gotze seemed like quite a loyal guy :p

I don't get how Bayern somehow got stuck with the title of "German Real Madrid". They share some qualities with them (arrogant players, vast wealth) but other than that they really are more similar to us in terms of possession and technical football. Dortmund on the other hand are similar to...

He does have that Toure resemblance in him with the forward runs (not the strength though). Cesc/Toure perhaps?

Bayern were the Bad-luck-Brian of football teams today :lol: With the stupidity of goals conceded it could be argued that they "deserved" to win because of how they controlled the game. However I agree that by the end Dortmund looked more deserving because they had a stronger drive and...

I'm not 100% sure about Casasola. The guy has been linked with us by media, and has constantly said it would be a dream to play for us, and seems to have no objection to the move. So why hasn't it happened yet? I'm guessing that the club themselves aren't interested in him, and that his link was...

This transfer window has brought upon an avalanche of stupid posts :lol: hopefully it'll change as the season starts up

Thiago is 22 :lol:

Actually a good deal of this forum has surprisingly turned their back on Pep completely

He did alright, crisp and accurate in his passing and good positioning defensively. I hope he learns to take a more demanding role in the buildup, being the conductor of our passing play.

Because like many of the other best players in the world, there is not much to say about him other than he is the best. Same reason why Thiago's thread is longer than Messi's. One sparks massive debate between fans, the other is simply the best.

This was very funny though :lol:

Some of you are plain biased. He had a brilliant game tonight and was their 3rd/2nd best player on the pitch. He shouldn't have been dispossessed into the last goal, but you are milking it too much. There was bad defending after the dispossession and the goal itself was offside. But that's what...

Thank you :worthy:

:lol: Messi would be anyone's favorite. Obviously he's going to play most games in a season, and he should. When he's benched it's only for rest for the most important games. Martino would be smart enough not to fatigue him though.
