He was injured.... hopefully an injury as looked like his head went a bit and he has a history of anxiety that havent seen at Barca yet.

He's been very.. bland? so far this summer. Subbed off at HT twice and not really made an impression on the pitch including friendlies. Better hope he reaches his top form of last season.

Caught out playing everyone onside for Celta's opener. He was better than Kounde last season but Kounde is way clear this. I feel like people give him more leeway because he came for free.

Hopefully Araujo comes back next game and builds a partnership with Kounde for the foreseeable. AC has not been Barca standard this season.

True.

Was surprised to see no post in this thread for more than 3 weeks. Don't know if these small knocks/injuries he seems to constantly carrying are bothering him but obviously not on the same level than last year. Might also be he doesn't have same chemistry/doesn't feel as comfortable playing alongside Kounde than with Araujo. Still like AC a lot and think he'll improve as the season goes on but disappointing so far to say the least.

Problem with the Araujo-Kounde partnership is that Kounde will have to play as a LCB where he's not as good as on the right.

He has been carrying a knock.

Was good the two games prior and Kounde, Christensen and Araujo were all as bad as one another at weekend. The defensive shape of team was an absolute shambles.

We don't know that, he almost never played there and when he did he was ok as far as I remember. Someone will have to go to the left side, I think better Kounde than Araujo. It's only a matter of time when one of the CBs will be injured again.

Maybe even play with 3 CBs and no Oriol in midfield or is that too big of a change? Christensen DM is another idea.

Good game. Very nice signing.

Love watching the CB partnerships.

The previous board should be tried for crimes by letting slowpokes like Pique, Lenglet, and then Garcia be starting CBs.

What's the situation with Christiansen?

Xavi broke up one of the best things we had last season and that is his centre back partnership with Araujo. Inigo seems to be his new favorite and I don't see what warranted the Dane losing his starting spot.

Always doing great things but never seems to appear in the spotlight afterwards. Such a calm and cool head.
