I didn't get his positioning. Way up front, inside their area, but barely got the ball. It's all a mystery.

He has no impact as a sub seemed pretty clear from his previous games. Seemed like Lucho just wanted to continue the same way with some fresh legs and thought we'd score soon.

Barçapocalypse NOW!
why was this guy even signed, he's just a shit rakitic who is currently shit.

That's the point! Raki is playing badly at the moment, but Gomes comes in and nothing changes, he can't even outperform Raki who's having his worst season in Spain...

I hope we get rid this summer. Bound to be a team daft enough to bid big money for him - PSG ;)

he was presented like the next big thing but i don't see anything that would justify that,he is way overpaid for what he is showing,and even worse he is usually substitute,so 40 millions for a player who is not a starter and who hasn't showed anything (yet) is bad deal of business
and i disagree with anyone who wants to sell rakitić,he is currently really bad but atleast we know that he is good player,gomes is just average as someone said earlier

This guy has shown nothing so far.

I doubt he will ever show more in this team, where he simply doesn't fit in.
As we used to say: he is wearing "horse-shoes", meaning he is slow, circuitous and lacks creativity.
Truly bad signing, perhaps those are right who got the conjecture it may have been a very "political" deal...

Rakitic is a very good player who plays in a bad position this season, due to the fact that there's no more Dani Alves, which screws up the entire right side of this team...

Agreed. Maybe it was off the back of the euros, although he didn't stand out in that and was nothing special for Valencia.

The worrying part for me is the 50m price tag, we've committed ourself to him with that for at least 2/3 seasons.

From a Portuguese Forum about the player:

You think he fits the Barcelona style?

Not at all. The typical Barça midfielder is short, quick, good at short dribbles, and can pull out brilliant passes from any distance. Being none of these, André is totally out of his depth there.

He's a got some good attributes - most of them offensive - but his decision making is slow-ish and very far from Barça standard. His main virtues serve Barça nothing. I'm sure he could do well in other clubs though.

They'll probably get rid in the summer or soon after, and imo it would be for the best for both sides.
