Claudio Bravo

[DonAK]

Well done to Bravo and praise where praise is due to Lucho and asking for his signing.

Was Unzue, not Lucho. Same thing though I guess lol

 

[Galning]

He was shaky at first but he's been doing good lately. Wasn't too impressed with him the first months to be honest so I'm not gonna praise him too much yet.

 

[Madara Uchiha]

Is it just me or is he better now than he was during that clean sheet streak?

 

[DonAK]

Well yeah... In his clean sheet streak he barely got any shots to save and was saved by the post 2-3 times. Now he's facing more shots and doing his job quite well and saved us a couple of times.

 

[Barcadub]

11 clean sheets in 16 matches.

Im loving that.

Bravo: "CAS upholds transfer ban? There are other teams who went against the rules, but none of them was punished like this."

Good guy FIFA. Almost every club should be banned for the same reason but they ban only Barca, why? Because we did too good with the youth? They were afraid another golden generation might come and conquer the world for a few years again?

Bravo on course for all-time La Liga throne - With the best goals-to-games ratio ever

Claudio Bravo's statistics in La Liga, the only competition he has featured in for Barça so far, make for extremely impressive reading. Indeed, the goalie is on track to set a new record.

The Chilean's start to the season was simply spectacular, with eight straight clean sheets enabling him to enter the history books.

The former Real Sociedad custodian was then brought down to earth with a bump, being beaten three times at the Bernabéu in Barcelona's first league defeat of the campaign and going on to pick the ball out of his net in the three next games.

However, several more shutouts followed before the end of 2014, meaning that Bravo's stats after 16 rounds of fixtures are the stuff of legend.

The Chile no. 1 has only let in seven goals in 16 appearances for Barcelona, at a rate of 0.43 a match. No keeper has ever managed such a low goals-to-games ratio in Spanish top-flight history before. The previous best mark is held by Francisco Liaño, who conceded 18 times as an ever-present for Deportivo in the 1993-94 season, equivalent to 0.47 a game.

Eighteen is also the record for the fewest goals conceded in a La Liga campaign, held jointly by Liaño and former Barça shotstopper Salvador Sadurní, although the latter racked up his tally in eight fewer games. If Bravo keeps up his current pace, he'll concede a measly 16 goals all season - a tally that no keeper or club in Spain can match.

San Bravo

On top of that he totally jinxed Madrid, hahaha...

 

[yahudi]

I thought his distribution on the weekend was subpar. Easily one of his worst games for Barcelona

 

[Faceless]

I favor MaTS a lot, but today he saved some crucial goals. Nothing special but positive nevertheless. Now I don't know who should start more.

 

[FC B]

He clearly saved clear chances and was solid but still man... his passing game for a 2015 Barca GK still uneases and unpleasents me a lot. Very shaky at it, he blasts it quite easily often when has better alternatives. He is no match in foot abilities for VV and not even for the much younger MAtS... And that is sad for me to see.

Bravo is good with ball at feet. Not that far off Valdes.

 

[DinhoR10]

He made some passes that I loved straight through the middle to Busi/Iniesta whenever Atletico got too cheeky and full on pressed.

 

[Observer]

VV was criticized all over because of his distribution and blunders off his feet, I have yet to see one from Bravo.

You can have a personal opinion, preference or taste, but a bold statement usually requires a factual argument.
