11 - Raphinha

[Tookien]

Playing well.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

Great game from him.

 

[Don Juan Laporta Estruch]

Cannot believe he has played his whole career on the wing. Been crying out for him to be played as a right sided attacking midfielder. Combined lovely with Lamine down that side as well.

He needs to learn to retain possession better and a little more guile and finesse with his final ball. But he more than makes up for that with his work rate, long range shooting and progessive passing game.

He is way way too slow to be good enough to play on the wing for a top club. This seemed obvious when we bought him. I hope he is seen as, and played, exclusively as an attacking midfielder from now on.

I will repeat what I said months ago. He can be like an old ( when he lost his pace ) Gareth Bale for us.

 

[MontenegrinCuler]

And most barca fans want the club to sell him 😅

I'm not so sure about that. Everybody knows 17 years old Lamine can't carry the right wing entire season all alone.

 

[Barcaman]

Picked as 4th/5th captain

At least he's faster than Lamin.

 

[M3ls]

The highest recorded Yamal's speed is 32.8 km/h

Raphinha - 34.6

 

[Barcaman]

Think Flick loves him. He has the speed, works hard and isn't afraid to take his chances and shoot. Plus can play in all 3 positions up-front.

Hasn't been mentioned in this thread but voted one of the clubs 4 captains this season.

I mentioned it.

I mentioned it.

Never doubted you.

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

our captains in that order: ter Stegen, Araújo, de Jong, Raphinha, Pedri.

our captains in that order: ter Stegen's Hair, Araújo, de Jong, Raphinha, Pedri.

Basically makes Raphinha 2nd captain then.

Can't argue with first captain choice either.

 

[El Barcelona]

I don't mind him being 1 of the 5 captains.

Gavi will be Captain within one week of his return
