I just talked to my 10-year old son who's with his mother and didn't watch the game yesterday because he didn't have the channel and it was late. So I called him and he asked how did it go... I said, "not well - we lost 3-0, guess what happened" and his first response was, I kid you not "Araujo got a red card?" :lol: So don't do talk to me about how easy it is to blame the coach for the team selection :lol: His next comment was "but dad, doesn't Ara always mess up when it REALLY matters?" :lol: Yes my son, he does :lol:

If we got him for free, I wouldn't complain - playing him on LW instead of Rashy is on Flick tbh. Rashy helped us out many times when it got tough, Tuna is the complete opposite - mental dwarf. I got flashbacks from when United eliminated us in EL when I saw Torres on LW :lol:

yo Rashy wasnt 100% fit, Tuna on LW was a emergency plan and he wasnt bad vs Bilbao, could understand why Hansi put him again on LW

That haircut ain't befitting for a Shark.

Needs to can that Tuna cut asap.

All salt, no protein.

And that's enough awesome fish puns for me for one day. I got a school to get to...

Now that dust has settled a bit I think it's fair to say many of us overreacted.

Did we really think him a 20+ goals per season with scoring important goals at one of the most difficult grounds? While pressing like Eto'o?

He's no Ronaldo, Eto'o nor Suarez. Need to temper our own expectations. Or delusions.

One of those players who will always have those misses as part of his game. It's his identity.

I don't mind him though as he is a useful squad player to have.

As a starter against top level opposition? Barca need to have better than Torres or a 37 year old Lewa to compete against the best in Europe.

Ferran Torres is not good enough to play against top teams like chelsea.
He is very useful in mid liga games, but nothing more.

Can't win games with strickers who needs many occasions to score a goal.

Folk say this.. then ignore he has twice as many goals/assists v Real in league than Lewa.

Ferran is a poor mans Suarez... hot an cold.

But to make out he doesnt do anything against bigger teams is wrong.

This year he has scored twice away to Atletico.. important goals in two big games, scored equaliser in cup final v Real, got three assists v Real to win league, scored in CL semi final. scored at home to PSG.

Those are some of Barcas biggest games in 2025.

He has bad misses.. so does Lewa often but to make out does nothing in the bigger games isnt true.
