He never got much game time or at least a consistent run. It was always a game here or a game there, he never really got in to the groove and I guess he started missing the comforts of life in Madrid.

He's been very underwhelming this season. He doesn't even look like a 50 million player right now.

This guy is a beast!

EV is an extremely pragmatic coach and basically expects Messi to create everything. It might work against average teams but no way against decent teams. His new 'fashion'of playing Rakitic and Gomes as hybrid wingers/midfielders is a cowardly approach. They have no use going forward so in his...

The games in which he is motivated are usually when he needs to prove a point such as when he loses his place. Once he proves a point in his mind he reverts to type and plays like garbage again until he gets dropped.

That was an insane performance. Neymar rightly took the plaudits but Roberto was everywhere on the right. I'm surprised he's rarely played their since.

I don't know how true it is but some pundit was saying the other day that in 9 league games City have conceded just 14 shots on target this season. If so, it can be argued that their defence is watertight at the moment but I don't think that's true either. They press so high and aggressively...

His runs kind of remind me of Kaka on his pomp, obviously not in his league but he seems to effortlessly leave players trailing in his wake.

The likes of Cannavaro, Cardoba and Ayala had fantastic jumps on them and held their own in aerial battles. Unfortunately, Nascherano doesn't but otherwise he is a colossus.

Neymar will get Brazil knocked out of the world cup imo. If things don't go his way he has an emotional implosion which effects the rest of the group and I can really see it happening again.

Think the medical team advised against signing him because of an injury but the board still went ahead and signed him.

Don't forget Messi.

He is a clinical finisher with lots to like about his all round play but today Son Heung-min impressed me more. Whilst the Emglish pundits, as usual, were only praising Kane, Son's turn off pace was incredible on occasions. He could have had a hat trick by half time alone.

Disgusted seeing him oozing class all over the pitch and we have to put up with Raki in our midfield. It won't be long before he will be looking to leave.

Ever thought that maybe EV is a spineless coach who is afraid of dripping the likes of Rakitic and Suarez. He must have pretty low standards if he is happy with his safe and timid approach and besides, he could get someone from the street to play that kind of irrelevant role. Nevertheless as we...

He isn't because Valverde has a hard-on for Raki and to accomodate him and at the same time keep Roberto happy Semedo is the sacrificial lamb. In 15 minutes yesterday Roberto did more in midfield than Raki has all season so logically he should play there.

What's Vidal for? He can do a job against lower La Liga teams, we aren't that bad just yet.

He doesn't need to share positions with Semedo unless we need to rest Semedo. Roberto needs to replace Raki asap so we can start playing players on merit and not seniority.

He works his socks off and offers pace but his decision making is not up to the standard required.

He is far far better than Pique, the only thing Pique is superior on is the aerial game.
