This will be our best game yet, as others said Villarreal will play more open. If they don't and every team we play against this season decides to flood the middle like getafe and Cadiz, xavi gotta start working over time

De jong fan club will lose their shit lol. But even van gaal said basically the same.. The best we've gotten from him, is now that Xavi has adjusted the system to rain in his running for the sake of running tendencies. But he's also right when he says xavi has the coach has to make...

Max kellerman Said the same about Tom Brady ever chance he got and it cost him is job at ESPN lol. Be careful of saying players will drop off a cliff, unless you already have a backup job lined up.

That's what he played in almost exclusively at bayern

Only persons who the box Midfield did any favours was de jong & busquets. It covered for ones lack of pace and made the other look something close to the player we paid for, as he does almost exclusively well in a double pivot. Pedri is a genius that does well in any system. Gavi is nothing...

Yep once he drops back to midfield which will happen, he's gonna blow. Anyone who doesn't understand/see that is crazy, he's not an AM. If he runs around like a "headless chicken" that shouldn't be an issue for some fans, we had a Midfielder who did that and was older for years. That box...

He missed Dembele

Great bit of business, not the DM we wanted, but the DM we deserve lol. Even if he's good for only 1 season that's perfect.

He does look good in a 3 man back line, but the value you could get from him on the market vs what you'd spend to replace him, it's better to sell imo. De jong as talent, that's clear for every to see, but the fact that he excels only in a double pivot means he's not worth building the Midfield...

What we really have to do, is what was the original plan, though I respect the flying dutchman for pushing through from the middle of last season. Sell him, for good money, use a portion to buy a top class DM. Build the Midfield around gavi, pedri, new DM. It will happen eventually, that's is...

When he got on the ball deeper, he looked good, made the right decisions. That's his real position, he's not AM, but you gotta take the minutes where it's available, when you're that young. His first season he played in actual midfield, where he looked great. He'll be a boss, no worries about...

Yea that's why he doesn't even looks in pedri's direction, he won't do us that dirty.

I'm kidding

Pep would boot De Jong 😂😂. Make pedri the best midfielder in the world.

Faded in the 2nd half, but that's expected. The talent is so clear its blinding. In a few years it's gonna be between him & pedri as for who is the best/most talented player in the team, unless someone else comes along.

Great pass

Back in the day when I played showed he'll consistently show up with something when needed they would praise him. Here....

Nerp

Too many false dawns to get overly excited. But like I said last season based on pre season I'm surprised he didn't play more.
