17 - Marc Casadó

[BerkeleyBernie]

He's done great so far but there's no doubt that the system suits him.
Wouldn't he struggle as a single pivot in a 433???

That's true of any player. Smart managers build systems around the players they have.

It would have been idiotic to play Xavi, Iniesta, and Busquets in a 10-behind-the-ball box-to-box counterattacking team.

TBH, I think Iniesta would be great in Flick's system too. Either in Pedri or Olmo role.

Xavi and Busquets not so much as they were more posession heavy.

Xavi was underrated off the ball. He moved into space well, especially when Messi was F9, then you needed players constantly threatening the CBs, if it was CMs or wingers.

Think he'd do very well next to Casado in Pedri's role. Better than Iniesta in that specific position.

Xavi
Iniesta
Busquet

Would do well under any football system ever played.

Casado will likely be called up for Spain for their upcoming Nations League fixtures against Switzerland and Denmark. [Sport]

Zubimendi will be a starter but cool for Casado to get a call up.

This guy looks like the real deal. Barca make midfielders like Willy Wonka makes chocolate.

 

[vuji_31]

Better then Zubimemdi, who Xavi wanted to sign for .

No, he was right about that transfer, and Barca would've made the signing if he was named Zubimendinho Jr. for 100 million.

 

[xXKonan]

Even if we had the money he rejected both us and Liverpool to stay with La Real.

I don't think anyone expected Casado to play at such a high level before the season started.

He's shown enough so far that we should stay committed to him and see how he fairs after a complete season.

De La Fuente came sniffing in record time.

I'm sure a football terrorist like Southgate would find a way to make them look useless, lol.

 

[Catta]

What a player he is turning out to be.

 

[Andresito]

His TM value is 15m before latest update. Wonder what it will rocket to, Fermin for example is valued at 50m (perhaps a bit high) but Casado should be at least that.

 

[Andresito]

Lmao who the hell trying to lure him away. Gtfo

"Links between Premier League clubs and Marc Casadó are being played down as he’s untouchable for Barça.

Hansi Flick and Deco both see Casadó as key part of the project.

€100m release clause has also been included into his new contract."
