    Frenkie de Jong

    You gotta be kidding? He played good but all midfielders of Real were better. They had the ball 10 times as much as Frenkie and almost literally didn?t made mistakes, with Camavinga loosing the ball at the goal excluded. Either with short or long balls, feints, backheels and all on tempo. Crazy...

    Frenkie de Jong

    I keep saying it. His timing where to ask for the ball is very very weak. He asks to late or to early or not where his teammates expect him to be. It?s just not fluent or something. He also loses so many chances to give through balls. He gets the ball between the lines and can slide it through...

    Leave that might out. Who?s better than him? Don?t see it

    8 - Pedri

    I have a question because i don?t remember it fully. Was Iniesta as good as this at 19? I can?t recall him winning matches as that age. He was already great but more on the back side from what i thought. This guy has that character to be decisive and isn?t afraid for anything

    Frenkie de Jong

    I think he was too basic again. He began with that nice dribble but after that mostly side or back passes. I dont understand why he doesn?t try to be more creative on weekly base. Against Real he was but yesterday it was the Frenkie under Koeman this year. Let?s compare it to Pedri. This guy...

    8 - Pedri

    I?m sure he will get better at those choices with 2 years. I personally think his passing/ creative decisions were better last season with unexpected through balls. This year he has more responsibility and play less ? magic ? passes but his overall game is way better imo

    8 - Pedri

    The way he turns away from his opponent is all duo to timing. Not explosive, extremely agile or with strength. Those who posses it in this way ( timing ) will stay great until their late career because it?s a big plus for a midfielder. The other factors can go away with age but timing will only...

    Adama Traore

    Plays his worst match so far

    Frenkie de Jong

    Although he isn?t playing really good I like him in this way. Electric and dynamic with energy. Those 2 touches before his chance were fantastic. Should have scored tho

    Noussair Mazraoui

    Like some of you probably already know is that I?m Dutch and a Ajax supporter. This guy is a fantastic player. He was literally the only one in the U21 team without a contract. All of his teammates had cars from the club and he had his own. Only travelmoney with others already earned thousands...

    Adama Traore

    This guy makes great choices so far at keeping the ball in possession. Rarely see him picking a wrong pass or the wrong person. Mostly the one who has the space. That?s something that i noticed from the start and makes him reliable. Good in small spaces with his technique to not loose the ball...

    Mavericky Puig

    I can?t help it but this guy always gives me a sneaky feeling. Everytime when the camera is pointed at him on the bench he stops talking and looks straight forward. Like he?s gossiping about the coach or players. Very aware of his surroundings. Koeman didn?t trusted him and I could understand...

    Frenkie de Jong

    Serghei is 100% right about his movement being better now under Xavi. I?ve seen literally every match from him at Ajax and many at the U21 also. There he usually just run to the ball but was 3 class above everyone so it got camouflaged. Even at Barca he did that. Not making smart moves to get...

    Luuk De Jong

    I know him since his De Graafschap days because i?m Dutch. He has this weird body that without rhythm he?s extremely clumpsy but with more playing time can do some surprisingly stuff. Often saw that big difference in his hold up play. At Twente he was technically really good playing in a two...

    Sergio Busquets

    Yess I remember. I think it will be a problem for him to play consistently at every topteam in Europe because of this issue. They all want fluint football with no one breaking up promising attacks. At Barca it?s indeed even more important to play constantly great balls at speed. Then his best...

    8 - Pedri

    He just has that magic aura around him. His solutions on the ball are fantastic same as his variation to release himself from the opponent. Great intuition that i often even like his failure passes. Everything oozes class what he does

    Sergio Busquets

    I know exactly what you mean. His split second intuition to create danger or to bring up the speed of play is very limited but he?s beginning to progress in it. He mostly goes out of the flow and takes too much time in order to kill the attack. IMO he did it indeed much better against Espanyol...

    Adama Traore

    This guy is a big threat. He has that split second intuition when to past a opponent or when to wait. So many times you see him as a predator calculating the right moment to unleash the final touch and he?s away. Great crossing also. The difference with him and Dembele is that he will keep...

    Frenkie de Jong

    I thought he actually played way better today than his last weeks with more energy. He finally keeps speed in the attack with 1 touches and quicker passing. In the games when he was weaker he got substituted. It still has to be better

    Frenkie de Jong

    You?re 100% right. I?m Dutch and I get sick of all the excuses made for Frenkie. Even in Holland they do the same. If he plays wrong as attacking cm then he needs to go in a double pivot. When that doesnt work its because he doenst play the Busquets role. Always something except Frenkie himself...
