That’s really badHe's on 62.5% for the LL season in long passes. Worse than Christensen, Cubarsi or Kounde.

I’ll tell you whyI found it weird he didn’t want to take responsibility even after Gundogans comments.
Even though he is not great on the ball I don’t understand why people want to sell him. Alot of you guys also wanted to sell Kounde a few months ago but he has been great lately. Araujo is a great defender showed it away in Paris also, one dumb mistake shouldn’t be the reason to cash in on him. I recall Sergio Ramos being a total clown in his first few years in Madrid we know how that ended. Stop being emotional. Rather sell Raphinha or Frenkie de Jong.
I rate his tenacity and his defending but the way he handled the PSG fiasco has been nothing short of an embarrassment.Have a feeling he will be the sacrificial lamb to open the door to sign other players.
It is what it is I guess.
We don't need to buy anyone, we have Faye.Sell him for 80-100m and buy Anselmino
Faye is a pumped up version of Araujo. Why pumped?
1 - tactically he is more disciplined, as I see it.
2 - stronger on the ball - it's just a fact.
That is, we have on our hands a 19-year-old LEFT-FOOTED (cool left-footed CB is a scarce “product” on the market) defender who:
1 - well trained tactically
2 - has excellent starting speed, fast over long and short distances
3 - physically very strong
4 - good on the second floor
5 -. good on the ball - in possession, passing, shooting
6 - has a high level of gaming intelligence - this can be seen, for example, in the passes between the lines that he distributes.
Why did Xavi call Cubarsi and not Faye, who is older? As far as I know, Marquez was against it, believing that Faye is one of the team’s key players, who is very necessary at this stage of the season.
I am absolutely convinced that in terms of the totality of qualities, Faye has much higher potential than Cubarsi.
Cubarsi is not superior to Faye in any game skill, but he is inferior, for example, in physics, acceleration, speed, playing on the second floor, hitting (although this is not the most important indicator for a central defender).
So, selling a left-footed, young central lock with such a set of qualities would be a big mistake, even for a conventional 50 million euros.
If I were confronted with the fact that Araujo or Faye were leaving, I would undoubtedly keep the latter.
True we have Faye (and also Riad as well), but prefer a right footed at RCB.We don't need to buy anyone, we have Faye.
