    Frenkie de Jong

    Man, responses like this crack me up. Little old Birdy getting a huge raise his boss OFFERRED him. A few years later the boss wants to tell him how to receive his money or villainizes him for not wanting to give it up. Little Birdy then says sure boss, I'll give up my money. Can I get a...

    Frenkie de Jong

    It's kind of weird seeing people flame another person for demanding to be paid what he is owed. If I was working for a company and they asked me to take a paycut because they were in trouble financially, but they'd pay it back to me later, I'd probably accept if we had a good working...

    Frenkie de Jong

    Honestly that is what I was thinking. Sub him in with 10 minutes left then be like woops, he's injured it worse, time for surgery!

    Fernando Torres at Liverpool before the knee injury was a beast.

    Depending on the player, you can come back earlier if it was just an ACL. A meniscus injury of any kind significantly worsens the prognosis. It's likely a year, at a minimum, before he is back to his new "normal". As a DM, he could still remain a very good player but he will lose a bit of pace...

    I'm so happy we had 10 minutes of fucking extra time for no reason and he gets injured at the end of it. We legit have the worst luck with young players possible.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Tah is turning 29 in February. 20mil being quoted, we'd better hope he plays well in his 30s.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    It's a tough call to make. Flick doesn't seem to trust Forte and Valle went on loan. There are only question marks regarding Martin. Then again our LW is Torres, and Fati if he can stay healthy. Chiesa may be an upgrade at LW, but I doubt whatever we can bring in at RB on loan will be much...

    I think Flick for sure figured the wingers isolated out wide on both sides was ineffective, particularly with Raphinha. He's doing a good job so far playing the players to their strengths. I'm hoping he cooks up something good once all or most our players are healthy.

    11 - Raphinha

    You're missing the point. I'm perfectly aware he was played out wide that season. My point is he was mostly ineffective WHEN out wide, and when actually securing us those points with key actions it was not from out wide- not from a wide dribble, not from winning a 1 vs 1 out wide etc It was...

    11 - Raphinha

    When you recall many of his crucial plays that season, where were they done from? Towards the middle of the park and closer to goal, or out wide? He was not clutch from out wide and was mostly useless there. This is not debatable. Just because it says RW or LW on the line up sheet doesn't mean...

    He will, but that's not where he's best utilized which is a waste.

    11 - Raphinha

    Pointing out Xavi bought the wrong player to play as a wide winger, which he did, is different than saying he's a bad player or disliking him. I said he suits playing as an AM since he can't dribble or beat opponents wide 1 vs 1. His lungs are better utilized there too where he can press several...

    To be fair, I was also saying this for a very, very long time haha

    La Liga Round 2: Barca - Athletic Bilbao 2-1

    Xavi would of parked the bus for the 1-0 win after we scored the first goal. Not even joking lol He did it several times last season and shifted the momentum by allowing them to inflict all the pressure.

    La Liga Round 2: Barca - Athletic Bilbao 2-1

    Yup, better than 99% of games under Xavi for sure.

    The bar is set so low, not being absolutely awful is considered "good" now.

    5 - Pau Cubarsí

    Everyone freaking out now but as I said last season, he's very young and has done nothing to prove he deserves to be a starting CB for a top team. He had a few good performances but he was also shaky as the season went on. He is promising, but that is all he is. Don't crucify the kid when all...

    Federico Chiesa

    The only positive would be that it forces out Torres, but knowing him he'd just stay again and say "I want to fight for my place" for the 3rd year in a row.
