I don't remember Bojan being ever exceptional in the Segunda, I knew he played very few games and was promoted.
Barca B wasn't in Segunda with either Messi or Bojan ,the team got relegated from 3rd to fourth divison in 2006-2007 which was the only year he played with Barca B and he actually was the team best hope to avoid relegation and they played him a lot at the end of the season
This thread is reminding me of some who claimed Bojan was better than Messi, based on his displays in segunda. It wasn't even here, but in the deceased orkut.
It is true that many claimed Bojan was gonna be better but it was based on his first season in the 1st team(that season with Rijkaard)
He was doing way better than Messi in 2004-2005 did in the 1st team when he was at same age ,people thought he could develop at same rate and turn into same player specially with Messi injury crisis for 3 consecutive years
And at same time a lot of people also laughed about the idea of Messi playing at same level of R10 and thought selling him to make Messi the star of the team was wrong move
There is a risk with hyped young players but it goes both ways ,legends were at some points a prospects that people laugh at the idea of comparing them to other stars ,while many others prospects to be bust
