Maturity beyond his years. So composed for 17 completely at odds with his first games in the first-team. Already improving a lot.

Think it will be very interesting to see him in a different context outside Barca. Everything is chaos for us right now so it's hard to properly judge players, seeing him in a high level game that's evenly matched will tell us a lot

Somehow finish out of top 4? Currently we are one of the easiest 'good' teams to take points off, I said it in the start of the season and say it now, finishing 3rd or 4th will be a great season and will be very tough. Even the likes of Cadiz can completely nullify us and Benfica can play us...

Yup. If we were gonna renew him the deal would never have expired. In football teams don't leave their players free agents for months then decide to resign them. We were praying that somehow half our squad decided to leave which was never going to happen lol

Oh, yet another 'convincing' of Laporta eh?

Really agree. Sometimes it feels like the B team is an entirely seperate organisation when it should be used as what it is, RESERVES. Meaning players should be able to go down there, work on their game and get first-team minutes when they are needed perhaps due to injuries or when they have...

Pedri completely, completely different case to Demir. One is a Spanish youngster who played a full starting season in LaLiga2 already and knows the country, the football etc and most of all has already proven they have a good level as a player, shining in Segunda at 17 One is an Austrian who...

You will find, Instead of reading the leaked versions of 'conversations' that have happened in the board where Reverter, Yuste, Planes, Alemany etc etc have 'convinced' Laporta of many different things that the most obvious and logical answer we can come to, with hard facts available, is that...

Rumours have popped up again that City want him. Same thing was circulating a year ago

Many success stories in B too such as Araujo/Mingueza/Moriba/Balde who all improved vastly in Barca B. Nobody thought Araujo would become anything then but he became our best CB, after that year with B, massive improvement. Obv cases like Ansu and Pedri (who had a brilliant season in LaLiga2 at...

You're right, Nico didn't follow him either, it was the most useless double pivot I've ever seen. Double pivot systems are usually associated with very defensive systems as you have 2 DMs sitting deep ready to break up attacks but when Atletico countered Busi and Nico nowhere to be seen, or they...

It would help if we didn't keep thrusting kids that weren't ready into the first-team? Then this dumb Twitter cule Hype machine wouldn't keep churning out failures. The pressure on these kids can't be underestimated too, you have people calling Demir the next Messi in the thousands and people...

2nd goal of Atletico's illustrates it great. They attack the space (his space), he got caught out of position, but he's only about 6-7 yards behind their man with the ball and he chooses to jog back instead of sprinting and attacking the ball, possibly closing off an angle for their...

I didn't watch much but they had him at attacking midfielder, lol. He actually didn't look bad in that role, surprisingly, always thought he was a pure 9

Trust the heavyweights to support lazy players. Whole club is rotten, loser's mentality. I think it will give Nico a wakeup call that it takes more to make it here than jogging around and passing sideways (Busi being the exception to the rule). This is one of the rare times where a player...

You don't get a spot and playing time in the Bayern that beat us 8-2 if you are a shit player. He's talented, not the money we paid for him, but if he finds his right fit after leaving he will do good again.

Motta gives him his first start today, interested to see how he will do

Laporta is so bad people are defending Barto hahahaha

Very impressionable and childish manager. He can have complete confidence in you and it can be gone after a few games. Konrad who you like looked like he would win a first-team spot last year after being included in some CL squads but oh well. Wish the board would have predicted this

Well we initially bought him as a prospect for the B team on loan not a first-team starter. Our scouting department obv saw he's raw after watching him for a year and that he needs work but Laporta and Koeman's hubris have needlessly landed him in the first-team. Most of the youth given chances...
