Alexis Sanchez

[El Guaje]

Because Pedro actually proved himself as a vital part of this team before his from dropped in the last two years. Something that Alexis barely managed to do since his arrival. And Pedro didn't cost 37 fucking millions at the first place. Pedro keep his head down and try to play his game rather than keep falling down like a lousy diver or bitch to the referees all the time.

Pedro is off-form. Not a misfit, like the other guy.

Yeah, a misfit player outscored Pedro last season even tho he played less Fact is that Alexis has been more efficient compared to pedro. His game/goal ratio is better even tho he aint a goalscorer. And if im not misstaken Pedro has scored only 4 times for Barca this season LOL compared to Alexis who has scored 3 but Pedro has played ALOT more than Alexis. Just shows how "good and efficient" Pedro is. Hell last season he barely outscored David Villa who only played a half season. And now, this season, he goes on a non-goal streak for like 23 games and he didnt get near the crap Alexis gets. Not fair at all.

Also, Alexis seems to get himself into scoring positions much more often than Pedro thus making him a bigger goalthreat. Dude just needs to finish off the chances he gets...

The price Barcelona paid reflects how awesome Alexis is. Several top clubs in europe were hunting him but he chose Barcelona. It is not exactly his fault that he doesent get to play to his strengths here and yet he's been producing at least as good as Pedro.

Remember a certain Ibrahimovic who had better stats than Alexis in his first season? Where is he now? I donno why some people insist on keep bringing this "Alexis has been one of the top goal scorers at the club last season so he's not that bad at goal scoring" excuse so many times just to justify his many misses. Actually seeing someone like Alexis being one of the top goal scorers at the club last season proves even more how much the team suffered from the lack of vital finishers (if we exclude Messi).

The price Barca paid for Alexis reflects on how hasty the club behaved regarding this deal. I remember it was just weeks before the actual deal goes through that Barca's interest in Alexis became much serious. And then things paced up pretty much quickly. Inter wanted Alexis for two years, I remember that exactly and the spoken figures were always something around 15-20m before his price insanely goes up once the season finished. Alexis finished that season in great fashions with Udinese, so this crazy raise of his price was just a natural reflect of the bidding wars that happened at the time for his signature.

I always found him overrated tbh. Never been convinced that the club made the right decision in signing him at the first place. Let alone getting him for such a high price. He's talented for sure, just not 37m talented.

Also, he isn't what Barca need, and doesn't seem to fit Barca. And definitely not worth what we paid. I know he's not a goalscorer, but my god, his finishing is fucking terrible. I bet Mascherano could finish better than him. Maybe he'd be good at a small club where he's the star player (like Udinese). It seems like his shitty finishing is partly due to a lack of confidence. IMO, we should offload him this summer. Pedro, Villa and Tello are all better. Cuenca's better too, from what I've heard.

the only thing pedro has over alexis is he being our youth product. otherwise alexis anytime anyday. pedro used to be so lethal infront of the goal but he`s been so poor lately. not even getting in those positions like alexis. they both work their ass off every match and are just out of form so bashing only alexis doesnt really make sense.

You do realize when you multiply by zero the result will always be zero, right? Those are not exactly the best stats you want to use to demonstrate how Pedro is equally as bad as Sanchez.

except for the fact that Pedro overall is a better player than Sanchez. Yes, you might not be able to make a very good youtube clip for Pedro but the guy has a better footballing brain than Sanchez will ever dream of. With the ball, Pedro makes the right decision 8 out of 10 times, while Sanchez doesn't, given the fact that he panics whenever he gets the ball and passes it to his nearest teammate. Sanchez isn't very useful with the ball and his main asset to us now is his off ball movement. Good player but Im sorry he's not Barca quality.

lol what is that??? multiply by zero.
the only thing i want to prove here is they both have been equally poor so why only alexis that gets stick in here. it used to be like same with cesc here few months ago and i really hope he`s gonna come good for us.

 

[Stric]

I'm saying that if you were to multiply Alexis' minutes on the pitch to make them equal to Pedro's, and his other stats along with it, Alexis would still have 0 goals. Besides, stats are not everything. What Moe said. Pedro knows what the right move is, and (at times) knows how to do it. Alexis knows neither. And all this talk about how equally bad they are makes no sense, because Pedro is just off-form, Alexis is just plain bad. Sure, when they're both performing badly, they should both get stick, but nobody will suggest offloading Pedro because with him we know what he's capable of because we've seen it before. So it's a matter of returning to his prior form. Alexis has been this way since day 1.

Pedro seems to be back on form with his 4 goals against Espanyol (2 of which were wrongly disallowed). It was Espanyol, but 4 goals are 4 goals. Didn't do much against Malaga but he at least didn't miss sitters like Sanchez did. Hope he can keep it up.

even pedro mostly passes to his nearest teammate. so do xavi, sergio etc etc. i dont know about making right decision too. pedro has been piss poor this season but i admit how vital he was to our success. even villa himself said he learns from pedro during matches.
as seen in the malaga game tello seems to be bigger threat in front of goal and i really hope he gets much more time than now. also as i hv mentioned alexis being at the right place right time more than villa and pedro indicates sth. if he gets that confidence back i really think he will be as vital as pedro had been.

You forgot to add that Pedro also has 5 assists compared to Alexis' 3

 

[Garrus]

Currently i don't see any difference between pedro and alexis on what they do on the field, Same duties and both of them have the same dedication, The only difference is that sanshez get himself into scoring positions more than pedro, That's it.
