He has scored 133 and assisted 50 goals in 257 games for a mainly defensive Atletico - side. These are not Cavani, Lewandowski or Suarez figures, but he still can be seen as a goalscorer. Not a fan of him either, especially if you think that he is on 20+M net. Let's make the best out of this situation and give him 2 months and see if he can find his scoring-boots. If not, put Coutinho behind Messi and play with real wingers like we should without this pathetic signing.

Good plan.

Thing is, that defensive setup wasn't a hindernis for him, rather something that allowed him to flourish. He needs that open space. He's a good finished but only when running with the ball at his feet. He's not a striker that can do scoring from receiving the ball in the box.

That's the main risk when you transfer players from pure defense + counter teams. You don't know how they'll do in a more positional, crowded football.

We just had one of the most entertaining 45 mins , where the forward players are shining and yet this guy is still average as fuck. 120M Firpo

Keeping the structure of the 11 but really, he gonna lose his place to Trincao/Dembele at this rate. And our offensive game will go up even more with some proper width on the right too.

What's the point ?


Next he'll be played as a dm.


Bad signing. Can't believe we splashed 120 mil on someone just to play him out of position all the time.


Just try to sell him , he's on +20 mil wages net (?) aswell.

And what has Messi shown. He was bad because he played RW to let Messi be in the middle. If he played as the CF and Dembele or Trincao on RW we would look even better. Messi and Busi are the odd ones in Koemans Barca. Without them we would play even faster.
