2021 Preseason

[kattanib]

This is exactly why I dont want us to sign Messi .. if Messi continues to be our CM then there is less room for De Jong, Pedri, Gavi and the likes to grow and they are our future .. same if Messi wants to take the responsibility in every attack play then there is less room for Depay to take leadership and he will grow complacent like Griezman

 

[JamDav1982]

Gavi knows how to play CM. Puig is like a puppy chasing ball in park.

No comparison between two.

Gavi Pedri De jong nico, I love how this looks, moriba too.

I am sure Memphis will pass more to Messi, but he is Memphis. He has his ego like Neymar. Messi let Neymar do his thing too.

As long as Messi is happy with Memphis, things will be fine.

But you are not totally wrong in what you are saying. Messi always makes other players a bit lazy offensively. They get the tunnel vision "Ball to Messi, Ball to Messi!"

That i in the end is special .. Gavi, Pedri and Fati

and Puig is supposed to be the "mature" player, but to me, it looks like Gavi.

 

[Horatio]

Gavi Pedri De jong nico, I love how this looks, moriba too.

Didnt see much of first half. But I thought Barca put Moriba in the naughty corner. So his future at Barca looking ok again?

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

Gavi Pedri De jong nico, I love how this looks, moriba too.

Imagine if we could keep Moriba too.. We have some real talent coming up. Could be very exciting times for Barca with these youngsters.


And if Fati comes back too.. SHITE look out!

 

[kattanib]

I cannot recall the last time I had a pool of players I look forward watching in Barca. It used to be Fati only 2 years ago and now there is Pedri and Gavi as well .. good times

This could be a great generation.

Need a new Puyol and Lev Yashin from La Masia and Barca is set.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

BUT looking at this team, I don't think the offense will let down. It's the defense. The defense looks bad, unless someone steps up, like Araujo. Lenglet and Pique is too weak to start.

The Lb Rb positions and CDM imo

 

[fergus90]

Nico has grown into the game, good physical presence and tidy with the ball.

 

[ajnotkeith]

Defense not looking great, can't help but feel if they had their star 20 goal man Kaladjzic maybe we concede a goal in the 1st.
