Can you tell us more about his style?

He is a brave guy that is very vocal on the pitch. He has fast legs and is rather pacey for a midfielder. His tackling ability is quality and his vision and passing are good. He has the ability to read a game, knows how to position himself well and I'd say overall he has great composure. Hard worker too. His biggest weakness compared to Busquets is his technical ability, but who can compare to Busi in that regard? It's not that he has two left legs. Some people call him Kante, who is his idol too, but if I had to make a comparison it'd be Claude Makele.

In early 2021 he was banned for 3 months due to doping. National team doctor of Mali made a mistake and gave him along others a medicine against altitude illness with a substance that's on the doping list of forbidden substances.

And Busquets is spraying passes left right and center pirlo-esque.

At least try him there before dismissing him completely

Busi is a galaxy ahead of Frenkie, anyone is better than him as CDM for FCB Style.

The guy is bum get over it.

throw him as a CB and even that ...

Busquets is about worst DM for any 'top' side going an no top club would take him on ability.

Causes two goals and folk still fawn on him being unique.

Never learn and must love CL hammerings and getting scudded from Real as Busquets gets the runaround and targeted by opposition.

Aye that would be FDJ who was voted best midfielder in European competition couple years back as opposed to Busi who has been humiliated and given run around for years.

Top logic.

Keep happy clapping for Busis failures.

Suits you.

Be great day when Busi leaves. Probably his best moment for club since Xavi/Iniesta left.

Busquets is finished but the de facto argument for De Jong being given the keys is always that Ajax knockout run in 2019.

Both need to shape up, to be honest. Well, Busquets needs dropping but that's just not realistic, so hoping he shapes up is about as good as it gets.

Folk who took too long to realise how shite Busquets was cant lose face and now try to troll.

Same cycle as usual.

No one rates Busi as highly as those trolls make out.

yeah sure, must be the weather in Barcelona why he perform like shit since two years !!

Nobody claps for busi's failure you are the only school girl who's doing it for a guy who NEVER proved anything for FCB unlike Busi !!!

No matter what formation or coach or players he played with ...

He played with at least 15 different players in the mid with or without Busi in the field, for gods sake he played with kids last time and couldn't make himself noticeable !!! loosing the ball like a blind and doing his useless shit when he have it.

16 years old fans will wait for his "next brilliant move" each 6 months to use that as an argument

Why do people still think that Busi must be replaced with someone that has the same play style. We need to find someone that is the complete opposite of Busi if we want to be successful again.

Look at Casemiro for example, he is everything Busi is not, Real would have never won 3 CLs in a row if they replaced Casemiro even with prime Busi. Busi type of players are extinct, just like the number 10 role(with Coutinho, James, Ozil, etc.), there is no more place in modern football for him.
