3 or 4 goals was enough for him to take a W, lol.

Lautaro has been a very positive signing for Inter. He's a top player for them and is growing season by season. Right now his true value could really be 100m considering likes of Hojlund or Antony going for 80.

And the penalty which should have been given really.

It's called a growth velocity curve, typically it is almost entirely flat by the age of 16 or 17. You get a few who spurt up around 16 but it is less and less common these days, it was more of a thing in the past. These days kids are entering and finishing puberty earlier and earlier.

Its unusual for people to grow past 16 unless you had delayed puberty. The max you really add from 16 onwards is an inch of height at most.

El Gato where do you live? I thought you were from the UK by the way you write

Gavi this season clocked 32. Quite a change from last season. 32 is respectable, not blazing fast, but decently fast.

It makes sense Girona improved without this guy really. Such a limited player and can't even defend. A destroyer midfielder that can't defend. Relegation or mid table quality which is why he's played there his career. Nice guy, but come on, we have to do better than this, the next budget...

It wasnt just him doing that. Whole team seemed to be looking more to foul on the counters rather than actually win the ball. Ended up with half the team carded and a man sent off. Xavi needs to stop telling them to do that because they are starting to think fouling is the first option rather...

Finding decent replacement for Romeu will improve the team twenty fold. He is awful and a big reason why we keep looking so awful in possession and in defense. Budget shouldn't have been spent on likes of Inigo when this problem was there and we've replaced Busquets with a guy who probably...

That's my view. We seem more like a team getting by through dedication and courage and dirty work rather than the superior tactical play we should be showing.

Funnily enough, Ferran is probably our only forward with the get in behind characteristic. He's probably the only one who would be effective running channels on the counter. He may become very important to our campaign.

Not sure why all the praise here, he was awful and really should have been off by half after giving away the penalty.

He's pretty good honestly. He just needs plenty of support from the fans and to keep his head up. When he's calm, he is a good player.

Doping control. Its common for tests to be given after games.

I'm really surprised going to the toilet during games is allowed.

I think we should hold our tongues a bit though. Its been a couple months. He's playing good and is prejudiced by teammates missing the chances he gave like with Pedri last season.

If you're saying, do I think their football skills are better, yes. Do I think some managers would have done a better job than Xavi by now? Also yes. I like Arteta, Slot and Nagelsmann from your list and think they would do better. However, some highly rated managers wouldn't have, and I'll...

The truth is that its somewhere in between the two extremes of guys like Birdy or Devils and guys like Serghei. Xavi has a overall good tenure so far but makes a lot of mistakes and shows his inexperience fairly often. Good manager but not at the top level of managers that Barca should have...

Also said the league was 50/50 and if Lewa Kounde and Raphinha were signed that he expected a league win and for club to compete in CL. Changed his tune once it became clear the signings were actually happening.
