He'd be a good if he didn't have the stature of a ball boy. His lack of physical stature will always betray him in games like these. Even if he does the other things well.

Even if he does other things well like causing stupid penalties, misreading the game over and over again, ?.

Masche was shorter than him and similar weight, but was built from pure lean muscle while having the bravery of a lion. This skinny-fat, timid sack of potatoes cannot compete.

Mascherano was 8 cm shorter, if he had same weight it means he us much stronger.
He was also far more athletic

Masch was the fall guy for a lot of folk on here who blamed him for a lot of defeats undeservedly so and said he was never a CB.

The majority thought like that at time. Wrongly.

Didnt realise what they had. He was last leader Barca had on the pitch, best passer out from back and read game better than any Barca CB have seen before or since.

Bad attitude. It is not hard for a professional to increase athletic performance. Squats, Deadlifts , Bench presses. These footballers think doing light weight high rep builds muscle and strength. When high reps are just not that useful. All training videos show this Baby weights with Baby reps.

Every professional football players should be at least squatting 100kg and dead lifting 140kg for reps.
There is a reason 100kg bench press is used as a benchmark for NFL combine. Of course in football you don?t need that high upper body strength compared to American football.

Feels like one of those players who will not take feedback on improving his physical attributes.

Believes his passing ability makes up for his lack of physical strength, Bad mouths opponents.
The saying is true the weakest boys have the biggest mouths.

Midfield wasn't very good, but the team fell apart from defence for me.

And not just Garcia... Alba, Mingueza and Araujo were all shit. There's zero leadership without Pique. Still think our best shot at improving the team is getting a world class CB.

No matter how good he plays one match, he will always make a game costing error or have a disaster-class or both every other game.

This is why it is impossible to support this guy. He?s just a walking disaster.

That?s right. He always has to compensate for his lack of physical strength and athleticism leading to penalties, stupid challenges.
There is no place for soft defenders

Couldn't concentrate too much on his individual performance, but was his physique even a problem?

He Lenglet'd us. I am much more pissed about utterly braindead plays like his penalty tonight. That's really unforgivable for me.

Should be sold asap, maybe some team can fork out 10m for him. He'll just be exposed more and more as times goes on and won't be able to get anything.
