Barca could be up there with West Ham as one of top threats from set pieces in the world.

Could be games where Raphinha is whipping ball in to Lewa, Araujo, Christensen and Kounde.. if signs.

Seems like we got ourselves a crack. Yey... been waiting for this profile of a player since ages. Hoped Alexis would be the same but he didn't work as expected.

Frankly, with a top team behind him, and such shooting prowess, I don't see why he wouldn't match Vinicius' 17 goals from last season in the league. He is also selfish in a good way, if this cat is open for a shot, he will pull the trigger without hesitation.

He is succeeding in life majorly. Did you guys have a look at his girlfriend? She's a straight up 10/10. :lol: Like a hotter Margot Robbie.

Raphinha also has poor controls at receiving the ball, so no need to make it look like he's a Mahrez or Messi at receiving the ball. They both still create dangers despite that, anyways the control bit would be more evident as he now plays for us

Poor control of the ball :)
Check out his first touch last night for his goal

:lol: He did like one touch and bam. Basically his first touch was the prep touch altogether. Natural born shooter this guy. All we have to do is not turn him into a very wide player. He has much more in his arsenal compared to Dembele, even if his dribbling is not spectacular. I'm over tricksters. I want smart, direct, powerful players with killer instinct.

Well then you should be satisfied with this team

Upfront:

Fati-Lewa-Raphinha

Three killers. They all like to score goals and play direct. That's why I thought Pedri was struggling. Overthinking we need to pass through the pitch like old days. These guys made good runs to be available.
