David Villa

I think Neymar prefers the heft wing too so likely it would be Neymar and Tello on the left.

I agree. Villa might stay though if he accepts a sub role & reduced wages...

I think a club like Arsenal offering him regular playing time would be hard to turn down, then again if he starts in the Bayern games it will be clear to him that he is valued. I really don't see both Villa and Sanchez at the club, surely 1 of the 2 will be offloaded.

agree! specially because of the world cup, he doesn't accept being a sub-player!

Bringing Villa in at 83 minutes and down 4-0. What a slap in the face. I hope he scores one just to make a point to the coaches.

 

[BarcaGirl]

Villa should leave in the summer. It's the best for him.

 

[evilhita666]

It's really not a matter if he plays or not... He would have been wasted anyway, if there's no creativity and no service there's nothing he can do...

 

[Armando929]

He should leave. Not just because he wasn't played today, but he needs to go to a team where he's gonna be treated like he's important. I think the club is determined to go in a different direction and bring in Neymar and Villa shouldn't take a backseat to a player that he is better than.

I think Arsenal would bring him a nice change of scenery and he can get that hunger and desire back knowing that in 2014 there is the World Cup.

Tito, wtf? 4-0 down and your first substitution is in the 83rd minute? Why was Villa not on the pitch in the first place? Why didn't he sub earlier???

 

[Kerrybai]

He will almost certainly start in front of Messi vs Bayern at home. If management wan't to stick with that tactic next season then perhaps he will stay but I don't think they will. I think Arsenal could be great for him too.

 

[Juan03]

Can't believe he didn't start, this man was born for the big games. Even when he doesn't score he provides space for others by drawing defenders.

His Barca career is finished it seems. He will leave us this summer as Neymar is coming

 

[ShandyFFM]

i go with that too... or why else should he not have started yesterday

Would not have changed anything tbh. We were not even close to their box a single time during the entire game. At least Messi could have had a couple of successful solo runs shaking things up, Villa can't get past weak La Liga players - sry to say. Tito should have started with a double pivot since we played with 2 fullbacks with weak defending skills, confused Pique and Bartra. At least a 0-2 result and we'de still have a chance at home.

...and yet he's still been able to provide more goals and assists for us than Sanchez and Pedro, especially in some very crucial games. But i guess that doesn't say much rite?.
