[mc_lovin]

Was bound to happen. Hes 17 after all. Looked outmatched today.

Barca seemed to be playing with 10 men for most of the first half. It was difficult to determine that Pedri was even on the field.

Maybe someday. Not now.

Was probably a bad match to start him, you don't play 'schoolboys' against atletico madrid. He's been class every other game imo.

 

[malvolio]

As with Fati, playing youngsters every week will not help us or them. At a club like Barcelona, they should have been slowly integrated and rotated with other more experienced players.

 

[serghei]

Terrible game. Needs to sit out some games and play Coutinho instead.

 

[jamrock]

Like i said haven't been has impressed with him as some, but the potential is there, the team is a mess so might as well play him

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

Terrible yesterday.

What I don't get with Koeman is that Pedri being outmatched against Atleti is such a fucking easy prediction. Nothing to do with his age really, it's more physical. How he moves. Casual composure, little to no aggression, docile mannerisms.

Puig is different because he has those fast twitch muscle movements. He's jerky, he has that sudden change of pace that's needed to fight for the spaces.

 

[BusiTheKing]

Kiev was his best game yet imo. Looked sharp.

Juve away for me, he was absolutely sensational.

Juve away for me, he was absolutely sensational.

Yea same, and it was against a top team, not Dynamo Kyiv.

 

[Andresito]

Cuadrado got sent back to Colombia that game. Wonderful performance from Pedri.

 

[JerseyAddict]

I hope he will suceed here. Often, when I see these youngsters, I remember Bojan's case (not forum Bojan )
that kid was determined to be a star... wtf happend...

SO, thumbs up for Pedri.
Now that fati is injured, peoiple will expect wonders from this kid.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

If Koeman keeps starting him every game, Pedri is gonna be dead before Christmas.

 

[mc_lovin]

He looked somewhat solid next to Frenkie in the double pivot. Really hope thats a sign we found an Iniesta like AM/CM instead of the tragic Coutinho/James/Isco/Ozil/Mata AM-#10 hybrid.
