He is shit, and always will be shit.

Lenglet was beast, Umtiti was top 3 CB in the world , and this guy is shameless,and Xavi/Lucho are even bigger idiots for playing him.

He fecked up 2nd goal but he'll always be exposed in open field when playing with a high backline. Don't think he was that bad overall though.


Also got some support from Gavi, good to see they stick together.

Good game.

Class on ball as almost always is.

No CF to play up against but for a 3rd/4th choice CB Garcia is more than good enough particularly when consider his salary... just needs to learn his limitations a bit at times.

Hiss passing and playmaking for a center back is probably best i ever seen. Better than peak Pique imo. Hope he improves his defensive side and doesn't make so many gaffes as previously.

Should definitely play in games where we are predicted to dominate the ball. He was involved in two of the goals yesterday, providing the assist to the assister both times.

Had a good pre-season. Looks fitter and a wee bit stronger. Glad to see the improvements on first impression.

Now let's see it continue in meaningful games.

Can see us going with Alpha-Eric-Kounde-Araujo for alot of games first half of season.

Xavi may think with JKounde and Araujo that they can swap in game if we need better possession out of the FB.

While Christensen has his mental issues, and we all know how we don't manage those well in Barcelona. Then there is Pique who once he sorts out his personal issues and gets match fit would probably replace Eric for his usual 10 week stint of greatness in January until mid March.

For some reason, it seems to me that the only player who can replace Busquets is Garcia.

Why not try.

This guy is very smart, this is the first quality that a number six in Barcelona should have.

You see, it's not easy to find a smart football player who understands the principles of positional football. For the most part, football players are stupid - their whole life is a sport, and intelligence fades into the background.

Garcia is smart, good at passing, breaking lines. Need to try.

It was said that Xavi tried it in training, and it seems like it went South that Xavi had to dismiss it and even tried to downplay it in press.
Also, defenders in general need less positional and scanning awareness than of midfielder especially DM. Would say that a DM need a 360 awareness while CB 180
That for me is one reason a guy like Roberto was better as FB than a midfielder
