8 - Pedri

Pedri was losing the ball multiple times when pressed in last few games this season.

Did it against Sevilla, Girona more than once and PSG lost it in bad areas.

But lets pretend otherwise.

Love Pedri but he hasnt been this huge game changer this season in way made out.

Barca struggled in most of his recent matches to dominate midfield fully.

Same with Olympiakos.. they pressed and caused issues until got red card.

Pedri helps.. clearly but not this solve all as made out.

Well of course he's gonna lose the ball against PSG & Sevilla, he was the only midfielder actively trying to do anything and move the ball forward, what is he going to do have a 100% success rate at that

Pedri needed rest and he got that now. When a player of his proven quality is making mistakes he did before his injury, it likely is because he is overplayed and lacks the necessary freshness in his legs.

Fake news and he did it multiple times v Girona.

Always excuse for Pedri.

Love him but he has been losing ball in bad areas a lot this season and dribbled past very easily in amongst quality moments also.

Training with the team, should get a few minutes against Alaves. Good to have him back. We can't compete in big games without him.

Like PSG and Real?

Like Inter last season.

Barca have lost a lot of big games without him also.

Pedri improves team no doubt but the reality is Barca have been struggling with him also before injury in those last games.

Pedri will suffer from same things he did v PSG and Real and same things team did v Chelsea the other night until it is fixed.

Jamdav is such a de jong fan even more so than a barcelona fan at this point, that I'm 100% sure that once Pedri went down. This is what he wanted to happen in his mind.

We didn't lose a single game Pedri was out for, only wins & draws. And then to make it even better de jong picked up a red card and he was 1000% saying yes this is the time, we'll show them now, how great de jong is.

We went on to win that game 4-0, and he was low-key gutted by that victory.

So these sequence of events have layed waste to his talking point, of we didn't lose any games when Pedri was injured 😂.

Now he's just left to say nonsense

Fake news.

Love Pedri but folk who make out he comes back and changes all are wrong as hasnt been case with him.

Jamrock thinks Gavi is better then Pedri in a two and La Masia player be through soon that is as good as him... while Gavi 'most important' player.

Never such delusion from the Gavi fan boy.

Lost 3 of Pedris last 5 games.. top stuff. Were drawing with Girona until he went off also in a 4th. In the 5th Barca were poor v Olympiakos until their red card.

Barca need to be better set up for getting best out of Pedri/FDJ and the wide players.

Watching the likes of Kounde.... who Jamrock calls 'best RB in world' gt targetted in all these games.

Watching Araujo who is 'Barcas best defender' according to Jamrock.

Watching the 'top top' signing Lewa struggle to run.

To be fair in the Bayern game they concede through an own goal, a penalty, and a weird pass back mistake that Kane takes advantage of.
And against us they scored through an own goal, dumb red card and had Ferran missing the entire goal from 5 meters uninterrupted

It pays back I guess
