11 - Raphinha

[FCMessi]

Not much for Davies to be proud of.

Raphina has many legal guardians

Disappointing game but it was his CL debut in a tough away game so nerves probably played a role here. Has already proven he's a good player and will have better games so not worried about him at all.

Showed support for Vini on instagram. Yesterday i saw parts of his interview about his life and he earned my respect, he suffered a lot to be in one of the biggest clubs. Second barca player after Iniesta that i really like and want to be successful even with our arch rivals.

Saw this a few days ago, but forgot to post. Raphniha commented on that bum Rafael Hernandez' insta post saying he's only had a single good season.

I didn't know that guy was STILL around after being wrong on absolutely everything for years, but there he is. His takes just as bad. Give it a read. It's worth it

Sometimes I think he puts too much pressure on himself. I always see him pissed after a bad action. Let loose a bit, and just play. Rome wasn't built in a day.

I take he's a favela boy like Alves, so he'll never let it loose. In some way it's good for teams he play. Hard times make strong men. Good times make weak men, hence our cushy veteran "captains".

Yes. Lots of his friends became criminals. He even said there were footballers 10 times better than him that chose the wrong path in life.

 

[M3ls]

Brilliant growls behind the defenders, but these idiots ignore them.

 

[Jakabor]

Makes so many good runs and does not get the pass.

Must be frustrating being him.

Pedri should dare more. Because raphinha doesn't fuck around with those runs behind the defense. Pedri needs to take it to the next level. Iniesta wouldn't even blink before making those passes.

Fact.

True. Those were perfectly timed runs exploiting the offside line of Elche. It can be frustrating to make the effort to make 3-4 of those, and each time the other players just pass it casually sideways. I get it that the match was 3-0 and over, but still.

Guy rarely gets service for some simple shots.

Our midfield really lacks player with KDB, Modric or Kimmich type of aerial or through ball passing ability.

 

[mc_lovin]

Eh, Pedri is an incredible passer. We are scoring and creating plenty of chances, at the moment I don't think we need more "highlight" passes. Control is our bigger issue.

Pedri and Gavi are still kids. They still have to improve quite a bit to reach that level, and hopefully they will. They are on their way, but still need about 2 more seasons to gain more maturity and confidence.

This is the reason why Xavi wanted Bernardo.

They are exceptional talents, but quite clearly not world class yet.
