Mascherano and Bartra... They really deserve to wear that Barca-jersey!

 

[Egert]

Falling in love with this guy, he is so loyal and working very hard. #nohomo tho

 

[Behrox]

Mascherano and Bartra... They really deserve to wear that Barca-jersey!

+1 these 2 guys deserve to be in the starting Xi

 

[Galning]

If all our players would have only a bit of Mascherano's mental attributes..

 

[Hellsangel]

Give him the armband already

 

[abual3bed1]

Absolute role model for commitment and leadership.

 

[FC B]

Chapeau bas for such a player

 

[Flavia]

He is mad with whoever started the rumors. Said a lot.

 

[dakt]

I would love to see him as a captain. Devoted and very determined.
Experimenting with the team by leaving him on the bench should be as bad as benching Messi.

 

[Neal Faradinho]

He is mad with whoever started the rumors. Said a lot.

Translation?

 

[draconifire]

No love for him after that game. Come on

 

[KingMessi]

He played well. Though he had a few brainfarts with giving away freekicks.

 

[Barcaman]

He's the real leader od this squad, forget who's wearing an armband.
Since Puyol retired all Barca captains are timid bunnies.

 

[King Leo]

He's the real leader od this squad, forget who's wearing an armband.
Since Puyol retired all Barca captains are timid bunnies.

No doubt about it. I was saying the exact same words to those around me during our last game. He's a born leader. His interviews are ALWAYS articulate and to the point. His leadership on the pitch wearing Barca or Argentina colors is unmatched.
