Arthur

[Tackle]

Stop fucking around, literally, and get back in the team because this shit is terrible.

It should be De Jong + Arthur + 1 more. It's simple.

Right mate, this team was really setting the football world ablaze when the might Arthur-De Jong duo was starting matches. Who could ever forget such memorable exhibitions of football like the famous 0-0 draw to Dortmund, 3-1 defeat to Levante or 2-1 thrashing of the mighty Inter Milan.

This 0-0 against Madrid clearly pales in comparison.

Spot on , Arthur ia very average player whos lucky enough to play for the club. How our standards have fallen.

Still better than Raki though, so that's something.

You tripping mate, he’s one of the best young CMs, certainly top-5 if not 3

Totally agree but still nowhere near as good as the hype he gets on here. He would have done nothing in that game.

Perhaps some more control. The players are not the most important problem in my opinion.

He would done better than Raki, which was nothing.

Exactly. The lack of control was key thing today. We missed him a lot today. Real got to control the game too much for my taste. Also Arthur presses so much better than Rakitic.

 

[fergus90]

Missed Arthur today. His ability to keep possession is criminally underrated by some. Rakitic should be his understudy now.

 

[Total-Football]

The difference between us being a miserable team and à somewhat not a miserable team is this guy. We were never outclassed in midfield with this guy in it

 

[eaman]

Definitely needed Arthur today just like we did at Anfield. He would've shown for the ball more than anyone in that midfield tonight which would've given more possession and more touches for the front 3 and probably more chances

 

[Ernesto GOATverde Tejedor]

He is way better than Busi and Raki but that is not saying much these days. He has done absolutely nothing to deserve the outrageous praise he gets on this forum. His Barca career so far amounts to 3 or 4 World class performances, if that.

 

[wisconsincule]

I want to see Arthur-FDJ-Alena combo at some point soon. If it sucks, it sucks but why not try it? It’s youthful and more mobile than Busi/Rakitic. Alena seems to be able to beat his man.

At this point I would be trying every combination of our midfielders because what we’re doing right now is not working.
