2 - Pau Cubarsí

[Bran the Greenseer]

Move Raphinha to FB and let Kounde play CB so we can rest this kid.

 

[te amo barca]

He's better than Eric, Bartra and the likes easily

 

[kattanib]

This guy is something.. his height is a challenge but many CBs made it and turned out to be legends despite of their height, like Canavaro (not sure if Puyol is considered short)

 

[jamrock]

He plays much taller than the likes of Garcia even though there isn't much difference between them.

 

[Messi983]

Cannavaro is 176, Puyol 178, they're both short for a CB.

Cubarsi is apparently 184 cm at 17 (might still grow a bit), so same height as Ramos for example.

 

[te amo barca]

Yeah he's easily tall enough to be CB, I don't get where the comments are coming from. Will add another 2-3 cm as well

Interesting.. the future is bright

Stegan .. Aruajo .. Kounde .. Cubarsi .. Balde .. Frankie .. Padri .. Gavi .. Yamal

There is no excuse for any decent manager to build a 16 players team around these players

 

[Porque]

Haven't noticed a perceived lack of height. Surprised to read it here.

If they are fit

 

[Messi983]

Rafa Marquez is also 184. Koeman 181, Tarzan Migueli 183.

So most of our best CBs were of similar height or smaller like Puyi and Masche.

Only Pique is taller.

You forgot roque.

If 2-3 of those because WC and we add the right players around them.

Should mean business in 2027-28 lol.

Minus De Jong.

 

[ajnotkeith]

He's tall enough, he's just very thin.

He is aggressive and intense despite his low strength, like Garcia, but more measured with it. Not bad.

 

[ajnotkeith]

Cannavaro is 176, Puyol 178, they're both short for a CB.

Cubarsi is apparently 184 cm at 17 (might still grow a bit), so same height as Ramos for example.

Cannavaro and especially Puyol were wham though, Cubarsi is still very thin, but that should improve as he matures and works on his body.

The main thing is his skills look good and he has good defending skills in general. He seems to know when to close and when to ease off.

 

[Joan]

Doesn't seem great in the air but he's not short either.
