3 - Alejandro Balde

[Porque]

Mendes getting itchy fingers over a 100m+ PL move.

BOEHLY wishing he was 16.

 

[Don Juan Laporta Estruch]

If Messi was here, this guy would already have around 20 assists.

If Messi was here, this guy would already have around 20 assists.

Not like Balde provides 100 chances on a platter to his teammates. His actions in the final third are his biggest weakness. If he improves that then I don't see any player being better than him at either LB or RB.

 

[serghei]

Calma, the biggest problem about current Barca is that we have to put insane pressure on these kids way too soon, because we see them as some sort of saviours. This is detrimental to their development.

 

[Andresito]

Seems like he'll be registered as a first teamer in September, meaning he'll wear #28 until January when he can change to #3.

 

[te amo barca]

He needs to progress the ball forward from deep with marauding runs, not receive it in a static position 1v2 near the byline. That's not his game. Xavi needs to reassess this 3-box-3 with him as a winger

Exatcly.

Him on counters would be massive weapon, but we don't do that here, we don't want easy goals.

Injured apparently...

 

[Gnidrologist]

Well, basically everyone, who we need, is injured. Let's get used to it. Does Xavi feed them amphetamine or smth?

 

[JamDav1982]

Now reports saying he should start.

 

[Horatio]

?

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

so not injured enough to not risk playing lmao

 

[mc_lovin]

Registered to the first team. Best news of the window.

Not sure if he can wear the #3 shirt though. It fits him well.

 

[soul24rage]

Dumb question. Is there a difference if he's registered as a first team vs as a B player?

 

[Messi983]

Probably means his contract renewal will be official soon so very good news.
