2 utility players to replace the best RB in history?

just buy a natural RB that has worldclass potential and be done with it.

First off vidal and sergi are more than just utility players.
They are very good players.

And please remind me how we replaced the best CM ever in barcelona and spain/world history?

Natural right back? A load of bull.
Sergi for instance plays better than plenty 'natural' right backs

And if bellerin is your idea of a natural RB to replace alves then im shocked.
For starters he is shambles in defence, he was killed by all wordclass wingers he faced this season, and the pace and attacking that he offers can be offered by vidal.
Am not even started on sergi roberto

Besides his speed Bellerin, at the moment, is nothing special. His positioning and defending are below average even.

Yeah, if we want a RB to replace Alves, we need someone who not only has pace (Bellerin), but someone who can dribble, pass and build the game. Alves is pretty good as a playmaker. And I don't know any RB that can do those things.

vidal is no more than a squad player. this is confirmed by his status in the team and current performances. he couldn't displace an ageing alves FFS.
roberto was used as RB, but he's not a natural and i'm not sure he will ever be.

i didn't mentioned bellerin, so don't know what are you talking about.

I was talking abt bellerin vs vidal n sergi.
Vidal is a squad player because there's alves and roberto ahead of him. And he's only been playing for 2/3 months
Had alves left last summer as we anticipated things would have been different. He has the ablity to play vs la liga top 6.


And name one RB who is better than sergi n vidal, who can be acquired and would be a perfect replacement
Name one player. I have cancelled bellerin (In case u thoughtof him)

i think vidal will be good replacment for alves, just give him little more time. Dont know what bellerin have and vidal does not, i remember on barca forum almost everyone wanted to see danilo in barca, i think now we are all glad that he end up in real.

This is ridiculous.

Of course we gonna need a new RB when Alves leaves, this summer or the next. Roberto's future is in our midfield, not RB - sure, he can cover our RB if needed, but he shouldn't be one of our two options.

To be fair, Alves has arguably been one of the greatest players the game has ever seen at his position, he is nearly impossible to replace. Bellerín would be a step down, yes, but so would any other player, including Roberto and Vidal.

But there's a difference between
Alves who's a 8.5
Roberto. 7
Vidal 6.5
Bellerin 6


Bellerin is the biggest step down of all.
Sergi performs equally well in RB, CM, and DM
And could be a replacement in any of those but at RB alves is leaving soonest and that is the position in which sergi rediscovered himself.



So we dont need a RB, not now, not even in the next 5 years

And for once lets appreciate our own players who worked hard, decided to stay and fight even when they had no place in the team and now they are performing consistently well worthy of first eleven


we all like shiny toys from other teams pogba, verratti, etc (bellerin is not even shiny).
Let's not forget we got players who won the treble for us and are all in for some sweat,blood and tears to defend our colours

No need.... We are also bringing back Denis anyway. We will be stacked in mid field with Rafinha returning too. So Sergi boy would probably love to be the main RB too!

Sergi Roberto said on Piqué's Periscope (PP) that he sees himself as a midfielder still but that he's equally happy playing anywhere as long as he gets gametime.
