Arthur

[Barcilliant]

Madrid did care about Copa more so than folk like to make on and Barca dominated best league in world.

Yes. Double.

Not reading that. First couple sentences enough.

😂 😌

Bullshit. Madrid played a second tier team in Copa and gave zero fucks about it. He knew the league was close to impossible and prioritized the cl. He has twice the brains, charisma and balls of that eunuch Valverde.

BTW Valverde will be gone by the end of the season. He has to win CL or he departs. The board is tired of waiting and with our squad we have underachieved in cl.

If we get Willian, most of our first team in the upcoming season will be past 30 with very little sell-on value. The amount of money we need to replace all of those players will be incredible. La Masia hasnt produced anything of value for many years either. Even with 5-6 Umtiti type bargains to replace the aging starters we're looking at 300m+ in transfer fees. With established superstar signings instead it will be several times that. Lets hope we're prepared for it.

Has arthur made any long pass in his entire career so far?

Why, are we gonna play long balls now?

Watch some of his videos he does them.. And is good at them aswell.. Anyway that isn't barca style to play long balls without a reason..

Already watched all his videos. I think you're reply was more meand for the guy who asked if he can play long balls.

We need some form of counters with long balls and overhead passes some times besides short passes tiki taka.

That depends on the way Valverde let the team play.

I dug around YouTube and found this:

Not a long ball per se, but from the compilations I've watched, Arthur likes mixing up with diagonals here and there. He's a very incisive passer though.

If you want someone who can play long balls and start attacks from deep, Rakitić's your man. One of the best at it, his forte. But a lot of it depends on your frontline, pacy forwards who can run behind defenses.

True. Plays quite a lot of diagonals. Some of them very good.

I believe that the only thing worth worrying about is post Messi. Honestly I am not worried about replacing the likes of Busquets, Pique etc. Very good players but hardly irreplaceable

He has to win Liga and UCL. Board is tired of madrid winning UCL and we look like retards against scrubs like Roma.

 

[BusiTheKing]

We just went an entire season without a single performance that could have won us a semi-final in the CL. Winning it with this coach seems out of the question to me.

Coutinho was played at RW due to Iniesta on the left.

Willian would not play midfield.

Dembele got a decent amount of minutes and they are trying to develop him and make him more of a team player and less an individual.

Whethe Iniesta is in the line-up or not, Coutinho does not belong playing on the right side...not as a RCM or RW in a 433 or as a RM in a 442.

If we play a 442 which VV obviously wants to do, midfield is exactly where Willian is going to play. Likely wide RM.

Dembele did not get a decent amount of minutes, at all. What is worse are the players he actually chose to play instead of him. He needs to integrate into the team more, but he was already a team players at Dortmund. He had a ton of assists and didn't hog the ball at all.

Looking forward to him playing in our first pre-season game.
