3 - Alejandro Balde

[BusiTheKing]

he's allergic to playing a clever pass but I still think it's nice to have his speed down there. even when he gets beat he recovers well enough to put pressure on the attacker

 

[jamrock]

Just rewatched the game, he was solid.

Needs to work on his offensive contribution,but defensively did well, dortmund has great wingers and he held his own.

 

[Andresito]

Would think putting in a decent cross is something you should be able to improve quite easily by just putting in hours practicing..

 

[kilian]

Buy a fucking LB so we don't have to watch this moron anymore. It's a punishment to watch him play football.

 

[te amo barca]

He's brainless and wastes a good 1-2 seconds every time he gets the ball on the wing. He might not be it chiefs

[Total-Football]

This guy.. his physical attributes are PERFECT for the fullback role. Sadly it stops at that . He doesn't know what to do with the ball.

 

[Barcaman]

He's a donkey. One (legged) trick pony.

Told you months ago.

 

[Devils]

Legitimately cannot think of a player who is as braindead attacking the opponents half as this guy.

 

[DonAK]

I'm sure Davies or Grimaldo would have some interest in joining us if we sounded them out.

 

[te amo barca]

Would Cancelo be an upgrade on him?

 

[Birdy]

OK.
I supported him. He gave the position the physicality, running, and defense needed after many humiliations Jordi Alba imposed on us

BUT ENOUGH is ENOUGH!

He can't pass simple balls to people waiting in OPEN positions with arms open
He is a recipe for disaster in games like the one tonight

WE need a starting quality LB that complements his shortcomings.
Someone like Grimaldo

Priority transfer

Would Cancelo be an upgrade on him?

Cancelo would be a big signing for this squad as we desperately lack creativity from our fullbacks. If we had Cancelo to play in LaLiga he would be a huge asset in this system that gives the fullbacks a lot of freedom to overlap.

Cancelo in for Balde today and the game is completely different.

Balde is useful defensively, however, so having the two of them as we did is the most suitable situation.

If Raphinha would have scored people wouldn't complain about him, lol.

 

[te amo barca]

If Raphinha would have scored people wouldn't complain about him, lol.

That was his only good cross the whole game if you're referring to that. And the GK made a good save
