24 - Eric García

[te amo barca]

Had a flawless first half. I think he doesn't make that mistake if he plays with Araujo/Kounde. Pique was all over the place

 

[ajnotkeith]

Bad mistake but deserves credit for great ball playing which kept us in the game.

 

[Messi983]

Great assist for 3rd goal tbh.

 

[giorgoXXI]

He was caught flat-footed, can happen to anyone in 1v1. Busi was more to blame with a moronic mistake

Watch it again, he wasn't caught flat-footed. As soon as the pass was made, he gave up on the ball and started staring at Lautaro. A ball lobbed that high should always be challenged by the defender. You will not see any other professional defender at this level defend like that.

 

[Gamegod]

Nothing new here, he isn?t a defender but plays as center back. This will happen again and again and again

 

[Pepe Silvia]

Ton of players to blame for the result, I didn't have Garcia as one of them tbh. He took a gamble and played the player instead of the ball, and lost the trajectory and ultimately the positioning. Bad play but overall I thought he has been really good lately.

 

[Messi983]

Not his biggest fan but don't blame him too much.

He usually looks fine when playing alongside actual defenders. Even prime Puyol would struggle playing with this bum version of Pique.

 

[magicomessi]

Love his hustle but no brain at all & for sure not a world class defender

 

[utility73]

Both no physique AND no brain is a no go for a CB.

 

[vuji_31]

City reject is our starter, that says all

 

[Nazario1985]

Ok so Messi want to come back to play with this shit ?

 

[Hawk]

Catalan frank de boer. Same pros and cons

 

[Messi983]

City reject is our starter, that says all

Realistically if/when everyone is fit he's a 3rd/4th CB. And as said before he looked better in previous games when he didn't play alongside Pique.

 

[Respekt_III]

Only plays well against minnows and still has disastrous moments, defending for that goal is hilarious.

 

[Devils]

The next generation of Catalan donkeys.
