I remember that. They made the entire team dress out and go out there. For a penalty kick.

Just another reason why he should leave. He can't play very long without getting injured in some way. It's harsh but he really has got to go.

Lucho once said that Douglas was a great player and that he's got as much a chance of playing as anyone else in the squad. Pretty safe to dismiss anything he says publicly as his actual opinion, he tends to take things safe when he's not bantering.

We're not even showing him loyalty. The lazy bastard has shown an express interest in leaving but we won't let him.

He brings a lot to the team nowadays. If he's not walking while we concede, who else is supposed to do it? Must renew him at all costs imo.

Just having a laugh at serghei lol

Why should Bravo be worth less than Mats even though he's better? Is it because of his age, perhaps? Discrimination, plain and simple.

I've never been a fan of that mentality. Starting non-defenders in defense for the sake of playing from the back. I'd rather not concede than have CBs who can pass, thanks. If Gumbau had any sense of positional awareness he could probably fulfill that role playing as CDM, anyways.

:lol: Well our defense was good enough last season, it's just taken a massive drop in quality, although I'd mainly blame the LB position for that.

What kind of guidance would you expect from Puyol that he wouldn't get from his current agent? If anything I'd be inclined to think Puyol would tell him to wait it out, it wouldn't be the first time. 5 CBs is overkill. That 5th CB is so rarely used or even needed that we could just give a B...

I can almost guarantee he'd sign a new contract if offered. If he was any more intelligent than that he'd have left a long time ago. Having five CBs has already proven to be way more than what we need. One of those three should leave even if we don't sign another CB. If we do, two of them...

:lol: I mean the Zamora. I know all these goals have got to be hurting his chances.

He has a tendency to forget to mark his man. Was a total passenger when the goal was conceded, which is never something you want to see from the backbone of your defense. Other than that I'd say he had a decent game, though.

How is he doing in the race for pichichi?

Why is Gumbau being played as CB? Surely we have better options.

Those numbers are an indicator that he's not playing at the correct level.

International football and club don't equate. I have seen him with Sociedad and that's all I need to have seen.

20 games. 50 goals. Hard to comprehend.

Well, Bravo on his current form would be a nice upgrade to what a lot of the bug clubs around Europe have. I forsee him going the Diego Lopez route and showing nothing of his Barca days after leaving, though, so you're probably right.

The most obvious advantage is never having to see him play LB again.
