11 - Raphinha

[jamrock]

Maybe that's where this bench player narrative is coming from, a few did a quick Google search and didn't add context.

Raphinha has been a starter for us since day one, whenever fully fit and available he started the vast majority of games he was available for.

 

[JamDav1982]

He was injured for 6 games in the first 29 rounds last season and started 10 of them in the league coming off early in vast majority he started.

In first 14 rounds he started 2 games and missed 2 with injury and 2 due to suspension

He was not a 'nailed starter' and even by time CL qualifiers he didnt start away to Napoli.

 

[jamrock]

First season, pretty sure a few of those N, had some context as well.

 

[JamDav1982]

Your graphic literally shows he was not a sure fire starter the 'whole time'

Over the season he missed 8 games through injury/suspension and of the 30 other games started 17... playing more once went to LW.

Again.. from your graphic you can see he started 2 of the first 10 games he was available for.

Textbook Jamrock with no clue.

Vinicius needs to be slapped around and have his teeth broken.

Disgusting player. Unworthy of the Brazil Jersey but very worthy of the RM Jersey

How did i know you were here spinning a bunch of bullshit even though i have you on ignore lol.

A player being out for injury isn't the only games that he'll miss due to Said injury, he/she will be back in the squad and either not start or play off the bench for a few games after coming back.

Your little retarded narratives are too easily defeated.

Imagine trying to spin the fuckery that Raphinha wasn't a starter at FC Barcelona amh.

That's almost as bad as telling us the only thing that separates de jong from rodri is pep.

Thank god the people in charge of the club has sense and bought the Raphinha's and kounde's of the world.

 

[JamDav1982]

He had started 2 of 6 before his two games out with an ankle injury.. so nothing severe..

Then didnt start again for month after came back...

Get a clue you numpty.

The season before he was behind Dembele at RW until Dembele got injured also.

As usual you have no clue.

Fake news.

You claimed 'Rodri is ass'.

Nothing worse than that.

As bad as your claim that Gavi is better deeper in a two than Pedri and there will be la masia player through soon 'better than Pedri'

Same folk who sacked Xavi as you didnt want to happen.. who punted Gundogan as you didnt want to happen.. signed Olmo.

Then again you though Romeu was a good signing and Kessie was Barcas best midfielder.

You said last season Raphinha is a 'smart sell'

Faye is better than Cubarsi? Club didnt agree.

Yamal 'looks shite'? Club didnt agree.

Do better.

This 50% stat and bench player some keep talking about is akin to saying a goalkeeper had 100% pass record.

He was injured for X number of games twice last season and obviously would start 2-3 games after coming back on the bench.

So that 17 in 30 number, in reality is more a 17 in 24/25.

So he Started 70% of the games he was FULLY fit for.

Damn lies and statistics.

As been told.. he started 2 of 6 before injury in league then didnt start for a month after missed a huge 2 games out.

Usual nonsense.

He was such a sure fire starter he didnt start v Napoli away in CL.

Raphinha clearly wasnt too happy under Xavi until very late on.

Xavi played him as wide winger far too often and only the emergence of Yamal really changed it.

Pedri quite clearly another one glad to see back of him.

Shhhh!......dont let it out. Let them keep deluding themselves.

 

[jamrock]

Gazz and jammy agreeing

That will show us 😂

 

[Gazzznigga]

Xavi loved Pedri and often spoke about how his heart rate dropped every time Pedri had the ball

Xavi "loved" Pedri so much he cried for Le Celso all the time he had the opportunity to.

No serious person takes Xavi's praises or player evaluation seriously. Hell, even Xavi stated publicly Romeu was as good as Busquet at a point. There was a reason for the reported "constant" clashes with Deco. They no longer trusted his inputs.

His press conferences were comedy half hour, his antics and tantrums on the line were cartoon like. Common!

 

[serghei]

Raphinha was an important player for Xavi, but it's also true Xavi and him didn't get along very well until the last part of his last season. It took Xavi some time to find the best role for him. And the constant subbing was just dumb.

Be that as it may, Raphinha was quality since he signed.
