24 - Thomas Vermaelen

[Barcaman]

His worst game for sure but he's been one of our unsung heroes this season! No worries Tommy!

Aye. Let's not forget he won us a game vs. same Málaga 4 months ago!

He was bad today, but I can't totally blame him for getting caught on the wrong foot by a unintentional rebound from Mascherano.

He had two choices at that moment, both risky:

1) try to stop the ball and risk to splash himself like shit on the ground (exactly what he did);
2) do not try to stop the ball, correct his body trajectory and try to catch the opponent already meters away from him;

He chose the option 1 and unfortunately it didn't pay off, but sometimes this kind of shit happens (other times it's a great save).

And what a strike it was, Tommy's goal was clutch there! Malaga the team that beat us 0-1 and tied us 0-0 last season! Tough nut and now we won both games!

The mistakes him and some of the others make are not afforded to Batra imo. Lucho gives a longer rope to his favourite players than those that aren't.

 

[Lomar1o]

those mistakes were amateurish. i cant forgive him that! i hope he improves tho' and makes me eat my words

 

[FCBarca]

Not sure what to make of his disastrous performance that fully warranted a halftime benching

 

[AnnieSureshot]

I think he made a few mistakes and then totally mentally crumbled.

 

[Flavia]

The problem is he always used to make those. He was never a consistent player. If he plays, he needs to be paired with Pique.

After this performance he needs pairing alright...

Haha, I guess that mistake was really painful.

 

[Catalan Fan]

Thanks for the reminder... +

 

[barcanuck]

^Looks like he got ghost punched there!

 

[God Serena]

That's got to be up there with Douglas trying to clear the ball across his own area in terms of screw ups. He must have been in pain because he felt his Barcelona life shorten.

 

[Neeraj]

Haha I was looking for these gifs. I remember there were 2 more - one where he tries whacking the ball and misses it, and one where he charges some guy like robocop and the Malaga player reads him from a mile away, nutmegging him and leaving him looking silly

 

[Hardy]

disgusting, absolutely disgusting player
