If that header by Kounde drops on the other side of the goal line, Cancelo did more vs Sociedad than Balde all game. Balde is totally overrated offensively and not much to look at defensively. One footed, limited IQ. All he has is some pace to beat a man, but the follow up is almost always...

That's true. Garcia is probably 2nd best defender. Ideally best place for Cubarsi and Balde would be the bench. If Cancelo is any good he will easily bench current Balde. But we are still left with a mediocre defender. Cubarsi, Araujo, or Martin, pick your poison.

Yeah, for both teams.

Kounde is also the fullback with best end product in the team in bigger games btw.

Kounde is by a mile the best defender we have. Guy played a World Cup final. Cubarsi doesn't even make the team for Spain. And that with the current selection of mediocre CBs Spain has atm.

Cubarsi :lol:

Somehow we selected the worst of the worst defenders we have and put them all on the field at the same time. Probably the one team to do that against is Oviedo at home. Too bad Araujo is missing.

The league is so weak comparative to its glorious past... 3-4 more fuckups like Sociedad will be enough to lose the title to this wank Madrid. At the very least it will force us to beat them in the Clasico to clinch it.

Most players just don't have the temperament or the hunger to last long at the top.

Historically, Madrid is the biggest, than us, and Bayern. These 3 are clear imo. Italian teams used to follow for me, especially Milan and Juventus, but their advantage vs EPL sides is starting to disappear more and more. Serie A used to be the best league. But it has dropped to distant 3rd and...

When all is said is done, Laporta is by far and away the best leader this club has been able to produce for the president's position probably ever. I'd take the worst version of Laporta vs the best version of all the Bartomeus out there. And we're seeing a good, if not great version when we...

Spot on.

Of course. Just 2 weeks ago he wrecked Bilbao.

Fermin can't be sold for a cheap fee. His age, his workrate, his end product in bigger games... we're talking about a minimum of 80m or so. But selling valuable players that are an important part of the team is not an idea we should adopt.

Depends on what the top 4-8 is. Atm quite a few accesible teams there.

Doesn't hurt a test vs a weaker but still good team before a potentially tougher match for a place in last 8. This is funny season. Madrid look like crap but they can end up in top 4 in CL.

Don't care much for top 8.

If Tottenham somehow finishes top 4, whoever draws them in the quarters wins the lottery.

Farmers... farmers everywhere...

Ideal team is nearly all Barca. Attack to play with and defense to play against.
