10 - Lionel Messi - v5

Thank god for the yc. Leo getting a well-deserved rest vs Granada after two weeks full of torture and pain with Argentina sounds really good to me.

The system has to benefit the team. Its impossible to contend for CL and Liga with that defensive transition.Atrocious

The defense wasn't any better with 433. But now, at least the offensive part is working. Lucho needs to work on that.

 

[DonAK]

The defensive transition was worse before. Slower and had one less midfielder to sustain pressure and retain possession. No system is without its flaws and 3-4-3 got its obvious ones on the flanks reliant on Neymar and Rafinha putting in a good defensive shift, but it's still working better than the 4-3-3. We just got to ride out this season this way somehow and hope for the best.

 

[Messi983]

Yeah. Need Dembele as the rw. Can't be Rafinha.

I don't think we'll get Dembele this summer. Maybe buy Bernardo Silva and play him as RW? Personally I would also bring back Deulofeu and see what he can do.

BTW, don't know if this is true but I've heard yesterday that Messi has scored 5 out of 6 penalties against Diego Alves. Given that Alves's save percentage of penalties against other players is around 50% that's great achievement.

He was back on form yesterday, great performance, should have had several assists to go with his two goals

 

[JerseyAddict]

I am so affraid what will happen with him at FIFA break. He is back in GOAT mode. I hate FIFA breaks.

 

[PhilS]

That was a real old pro move, picking up the yellow card at the end of the game like that. Do you think he worked that out with the ref in advance?
