Fair enough. Ferran does have more of a defined role than Griezmann did. Let's see how they end up matching up.

I'm fine with trying to get back to our peak. I just think that Gavi and Pedri are... more equipped for that than Riqui.

Koeman put a 16 year old Gavi as a starter. I don't.think he's scared. Xavi brought a 38 year old Alves back and started him. He probably isn't scared either. The one who is scared is Riqui. Scared to leave the club and start in pasteurs new instead of warming the bench. If he puts his mind...

Ferran played pretty much all of his career games on the right in the 442. For Spain and City recently he played CF but that might account for like 20 games max. Griezmann has played across the forward line but actually played the majority of the games in his career as first striker.

Most of Ferran's career he played RM. He only played CF for a run of games at City, most of his career he wasn't even playing in the forward line. Griezmann is much more of a real forward.

Every manager since Puig has been at the first team has basically ignored him. Either : 1) There is some football conspiracy against Riqui Puig from a higher power forcing Barca coaches not to like him 2) He just sucks as proven by his gametime over the seasons

If it's clear Ferran is working hard for the team and opening the game up despite having lower GA than expected then he can still be a successful signing. But not at all sure if that's actually going to be the case. He is new and might take time to settle in but just watching him so far I don't...

It's hard to say because for so many years it has been Messi and Neymar and later Suarez scoring and assisting many goals, with most other attackers being peripheral, so other than guys like Villa there is nobody to compare Ferran to. We have never been in this situation before. For Ferran to...

I don't think the comparison with Pedro is correct because they are playing really different roles. Ferran will probably be relied on to score a lot of goals and assist whereas in that time there was M(S)N scoring most of the goals I would also add that despite our struggles we do have a very...

Those guys you named had a ton of assists and their goals came at important times too. There was a point where Bale was scoring and assisting every game in his first seasons in LaLiga. For Ferran 15-20 is fair with most of them coming in the league and CL/EL, not hat tricks against Ibiza like...

That's a joke right

There are players who thrive on movement, but those usually have great finishing and also some physical qualities too. He's kind of tall but slow and weak so not useful in that regard. Torres lack of strength or other physical qualities makes it difficult for him to be a striker, so it's not...

He is relying on two things to be good : -movement -Finishing We have already seen that he doesn't really have anything else. So if those two things aren't world class level.. we got hustled.

I hope he starts against Napoli.

It's disrespectful to put Griezmann and Dembele and then Jutgla and Abde in the same sentence. No,they are not the same level.

PSG earnt their name being in the same line by beating them 2-0.

To be world class you must also be strong in the defensive phase unless you have outstanding offense. Pedri can be a good ballwinner at times but it would be nice to see more on that front, whilst he is very good offensively. Gavi has it a little flipped. Strong defense and good offense too but...

Sterling, Rodri, KdB etc are stars for sure according to their ability. Just for some reason not recognised in pop culture and the media. Sterling's City numbers : 123 goals and 91 assists in 323 games. Outside of Messi or prime Neymar it's difficult to find wingers who produce/produced more...

?Against Sporting, the intensity of his movements? they were magnificent. It is what Raheem has done over many, many years together. ?In terms of stats and the national team and becoming a key player for us - and for me personally - I am very glad he is back to his best because we need him...

The penalty doesn't really count as his chance though. If the goal had been open play sure but isn't like he won the penalty.
