Normally, a guy his age doesn't come to a club like Barca to be a starter, and normally, a guy his age doesn't get a contract like his. He was signed to be a focal point of Barca's attack, and more often than not, he delivers. No need to lower one's expectations he's clearly still able to meet.
He was still more potent 3 years vs what he is now. Xavi's idea was him to be a part of the transition project while the other old dogs were still on the team. Looks like it is all done now... but they still utilize him. I am sure he does all he can to do the job right but if he cannot sprint like he could 10 years ago or his endurance declined...that was all predictable.
Which I find highly reciprocal, careerwise. He sure is happy about money, climate and ... food maybe.
That's wrong logically.
He made his eksgee bad because of poor touch and loss of agility. Pass by Pedri was well timed. No contradiction there. What all that means is that we need to have younger striker that meets our needs, while Bob can be a great backup, impact sub and sometimes starter, especially in games, where we don't need to press.
