Thiago was mediocre all the season at Liverpool and everytime he got minutes in the tournament he proved Luis Enrique right by doing NOTHING of impact. The only good thing the did was scoring the pen today.
One final point which I don't think any one pointed out yet.
I'm the 119 minute or so, Pedri picked up the ball on the edge of the box.
He had space to dribble into the box, time to set up and shoot. It was an Iniesta vs Chelsea 2009 moment.
Obviously as Barca fans we knew he wouldn't pull the trigger. He instead passed to Olmo which was sloppy and didn't reach him.
But with a bit more maturity, and confidence, he really needs to take these opportunities to score when he is in the best position to shoot and not seek out teammates.
Was that after the match, or after each Thiago pass?
True. Grass ain't greener on the other side.
It would take Thiago to come back for some in here to realise that Thiago is nowhere near the player he was at Bayern in a very strong collective he heavily benefitted from.
A sports journalist in Croatia just wrote an article titled "The king is dead, long live the king" implying Pedri took over Iniesta. My oh my, the hype's immense, they're taking it too far.
The king is dead, long live the kid would sound better
