Adriano Correia Claro

[Barcafan 2304]

I think the fact that he has an injury explains his lethargic performance, no? he obviously picked it up earlyish but didn't realise it.

Yip, certainly explains a lot. Anyone know the extent of the injury and how long he might be out?

 

[Merv]

This is all the official site says. No word on how long he'll be out yet.



"Adriano has been ruled out of FC Barcelona’s Champions League game against Rubin Kazan in midweek after suffering an injury against Athletic Club.

The Brazilian was replaced by Maxwell during the game in San Mamés on Saturday and tests have confirmed that he has suffered a muscle strain in his right leg.

Barça travel to Tatarstan for the game on Wednesday night and Adriano will not be involved. The full-.back will instead remain in the Ciutat Contal to work on his recovery programme."

I don't see any reason to play him instead of Maxwell, save him for when Alves is injured or needs a break.

 

[Barcaman]

Adriano is back in training and probably going to make the squad list for Mallorca.

Yes, pretty much agree with that. Adriano will have to go some to dislodge these players or be more than a reserve player

 

[Gnegneri]

Is he like, you know, still alive actually?

 

[FCBarca]

Adriano has apparently gone MIA, eh?

 

[woobie]

Surfaced long enough to pick up his audi at least.

 

[Barcaman]

Ah the tough life of a footballer

Good man

 

[Silver]

nice performance from him today. Good sub

 

[dalitis8]

He deserves playtime.

 

[Cal-FCB]

He's been nowhere near his Sevilla level since he came to us, and that's affected his playing opportunities. I can't see him being a real option for LB because Abi and Maxwell have that spot tied down, both have played well a while now. Really covering for Dani is most likely for him, or when we are short up front and perhaps Pedro can't play.

 

[Gnegneri]

Just hoping it is adaptation. Cause frankly he has a lot of potential, so athletic! So direct! So powerful!

 

[veryfatchocobo]

So I thought we've always bought him as a backup <_<
