That what we all said when Barca bought Coutinho. Instead Valverde made him look like a 160m Denis Suarez and instead of dropping him or trying him on a new position he just kept playing him on the LW hoping by some miracle that the 250th time he puts him there , he will suddenly start to perform. Same shit will most likely happen with Griezmann.
Valverde started Coutinho on the right wing at the start of his time with us..
Ah yes forgot about that part. Another masterful move from Valverde. I remember back then the excuse of the Valverde cheerleaders was that " Iniesta is playing CAM so RW is just a temporary role.
Except Coutinho was substantially better during that time. So stop with your agenda.

So he got worse the more he worked with Valverde
Valverde aside, it all boils down to one simple thing: Barca has too many players that don't run. Griezmann or Dr Ligt won't solve much while we are hands down slowest top team in the world.

Bingo.
Not only the slowest but last season we covered less ground then all or most of our Cl opponents. You still have to do the work in football, especially modern cl games.
This team was fresh for that Anfield game while Liverpool played most of their starters in a very tough game against Newcastle. Still Liverpool looked so much faster and fitter.
This fucking idiot Shitverde has the team in such poor physical and mental condition its no coincidence we collapse at the first sign of pressure.
Add to that his bizzare line ups and lack of tactics and motivation. It doesn't matter which players we bring in cause he will fuck it up.
After two seasons Shitverde still doesn't understand that playing two slow, weak ass midfielders like Busquets and Rakitic us a recipie for disaster.
Fuck you Shitverde.
