Ironically, all those players Xavi roumoured to have wanted out(Lewa,Pedri, Raphinha, Araujo) are doing well under Flick, only Araujo is debatable.

You're welcome
this guy is the anti-thesis to Brazilians Brazilian
What a boss. On a mission to revive the spirt in Brazilian NT. I hope he forgives me for criticizing him last season. But wanted to keep him tho.
Mbappe with a worldclass dive as well. Reals generation is rotten to the core. Easily their most dislikable set of players ever.What kind of nonsense is being written here, like he was terrible in past seasons. It's absolute nonsense. He played at a high level in previous seasons. That's your problem if you didn't notice that level.
Yes, he took another step forward in this one, but he wasn't terrible or bad in previous years. He's always been a good player.
Always defended this guy against these idiots.
I'm waiting for them to finally give me a moderator button so I can block people here who don't understand football.

You were literally discussing why he was a 'smart sell'.
Dont let truth get in the way though.

Xavi loved Pedri and often spoke about how his heart rate dropped every time Pedri had the ball

He is saying this because he wasn't regularly starting under Xavi.
In his last season he played like 50 percent of minutes he was available for in La Liga.

Who wasn't starting regularly understand Xavi? Raphinha?.
That 50% seems very off, where did we get this number.
I know he was injured a few times and started on the bench whenever he came game back.
But he as always been a starter for us since being signed.

Raphinha clearly wasnt too happy under Xavi until very late on.
Xavi played him as wide winger far too often and only the emergence of Yamal really changed it.
Pedri quite clearly another one glad to see back of him.

Raphinha started 2 of the first 14 games last season in the league.. couple games out and missed a couple due to his red card but this idea he was 'always a starter'' is nonsense.
He started to play LW around game week 30 and prior to that had started around 10 league games and ones he did start was taken off early near enough every time.. much to his obvious annoyance... around 6 of those games being due to injury.
Even in CL he didnt start away to Napoli in that time also.
Same as league winning season.. Dembele was the preferred of the two when fit.

Most of those N at the start of the season was sue to being out injured or just coming back from the injury, was always suspended a few games. Also had another injury spell in the middle of the season.
That's why that 50% of game stat can be so easily shaded to look a certain way, without context.
