Played well in the first half and was the only attacker in the second. Was often kinda ignored, not sure what people are on about

I think Xavi will dislike his attitude very much. Completely different player to what modern tactics would require. He better change his ways fast.

No chance for this guy. Better get rid of him beside Luuk de Jong in January. Get sick seeing his tattooed muscle on the pitch. Such an useless player Barca (Cowman) brought in.

100% correct to bring him in but he is not good enough for where Barca need to go in future.

Season of him improving squad then sold on in summer would be decent all round.

He is a first attacker of the bench level of player who is forced to be the star of this pathetic attack (except when Fati is healthy, and even then Fati is more about efficiency)

I don't mind having him, as long we continue to add better names to our attack

Its not easy for him because he is our only attacker most of the time but he isnt doing well really not doing well not even when everything is right on the field. He started well but now he is underperforming like the rest.

He's not scoring often and when he does it is usually against relegation teams as well. The list of teams he scored against : Alaves, Vigo, Getafe, Levante, Valencia (pen he didn't win), Bilbao. Not great reading.

Sure goals against relegation teams count too but he barely scores anyway, especially considering how he gets every free kick, corner and penalty and loses the ball at least 20 times a game.

Braithwaite got a double and an assist against the now league leaders. Maybe if he stayed fit and you give him every set piece and penalty and the ball every attack he puts more goals than Depay.

Give this man a rest. He has been playing over 90 minutes in every La Liga game so far. The only game he was taken off earlier (after 75 minutes) was the home game against Kiev. With 1425 minutes he is our most used player and it shows on the pitch. Not even mentioning the fact that it is similar when he is with the Netherlands.

Not gonna say he is the perfect Barcelona player. He has his obvious weaknesses. He is too muscular to be at his personal best when it comes to pace, losing balls in dribblings and his passing percentage is rather low. It can be seen that he is tired and overplayed though, therefore losing more balls than necessary lately. The problem is our squad depth. Injuries, players coming back from injuries, new injuries, unproven ones like Demir. There were times when he had just 2 forwards that were available and he is the one "paying" for it.

He is the best we can do at the moment so might as support him till we sign someone better.
