I get what you are saying but I disagree its the coaches fault that put him in the line-up. Of all the oldies I dont think his contract is a major concern. He seems to me to be a model professional that can add alot to a group of younger players plus he doesnt seem the type to kick up a fuzz...

What you all fail to realize is that the ball he is crushing is made out of iron. Unhuman strength!

I know he might seem underwhelming but for me personally hes exactly who I would want in this barca team since he enables Frenkie to play his game.

This transfersaga has been (Lionel) messy ;)

If Koeman gets fired he could come out of this as the biggest winner lol. Goes back to his Holland job with a couple of extra millions of for a few days of work.

He made a horrible choice coming to Barca. He was blinded by his love for the club when all the writings were on the wall that he wasnt really wanted here. Guardiola took time to talk to Frenkie same for Tuchel, Valverde on the other hand talked to him his first training here. I really dont...

Fairly obvious Rakitic has certain flaws, should never play in a game like that vs a team thats so capable of pressing. However everyone seems to just focus on his flaws and dismiss his strengths, against weak sides where he can operate close to the goal he has value plus he had a good...

Totally agree, this trying to make De Jong into something he is not (attacking midfielder) is almost disrespectfull towards how good he is at being a deep lying playmaker. Currently a rotation between busquets and de jong would be best for DM (while de Jong gets to know Barca) untill he can...

Well its reasonable to have a high expectation since he was a top 3 midfielder in the champions league last year and pretty much solely resurrected dutch football from literally the minute he came in against Peru.

I would say playing for the Dutch team vs World Champ France is comparable or playing in a semi final of the CL yeah. I do agree last week he wasnt good enough and was his chance to really take that position and make it his , this week he played for the team out of position (I dont even blame...

Dumb statement since he played vs much stronger teams then Betis and dominated. He is played completely out of position. Might aswell not play him if you gonna stick him to the sideline. At Ajax and dutch team he played 1 game as CM bunch as CB rest as DM.

United is a complete mess. I think PSG wouldve been the best move , clear step up from the Eredivisie but not at the level of the top leagues. He wouldve had time to develop more since pressure isnt as high for PSG.

He wasnt a CB in the youth though , he was left mid and he scored quite a bit. His stamina was always great,so was his strength plus he wasnt slow only thing was he was a bit clumsy and worked on that.

Ye they worked with him with a mobility coach in the youth. Not still. And he was ahead athletically in the youth thats why he played in teams of higher age since I think 11 or so and if you watch some of those games in youtube (which is fun cus includes people like a 14 year old kluivert etc)...

Still got nightmares where his bald head pop ups , think he didnt get enough recognizition last year.

In the youth he had the nickname "dikkie" which means fatty. So he always has to put in alot of work which he does (go to his instagram there is no fat on him judging by his beach videos and pics with his girl). Also at Ajax they had to cut his shorts cus his legs are too big fit in it and...

Thats why I put a lol in there cause I know I should expect it.

This kinda toxic attitude bothers me lol Barca wasnt even really interested. They were buying Griezmann. Its like me saying hope every Danish players fails cus Barca got none

He had a bad pre-season and when I say bad i mean really terrible. Still very far from a finished product but undoubtedly a great talent , the question will be how much of that potential will he reach. He is in no way written off or anything but its gonna a slow introduction and not what he had...

Footballers often get underestimated when they start coaching. People forgot these guys have been trained in tactics for 20 years.With strong philosophies formed by a mix of own ideas and ideas of coaches they trained under Now not every footballer ofcourse will become a good coach but a...
