Franck Kessie

[Birdy]

Xavi still hasn't found what his position is.

It's a pity

Flattering to kessie. His place is a farmer league like calcio

To be honest I quite like him and feel like he has been misprofiled.

He's big framed and kind of fast so he can ride a challenge and carry the ball when needed but he's not really this destroyer that he was pitched as. He makes a lot of smart runs and likes to get in the box/in advanced positions and tries to progress the ball between the lines.

If we persist with the four midfielders then I think he could step in at the double pivot- both Busi and FdJ advance alot. We wouldn't play exactly the same, but we never played exactly the same when Keita came in for Xavi or Iniesta. Or before that- Van Bommel.

If the right offer, and the right alternative came I wouldn't complain at selling, but for now, not a big problem in the squad. Bigger issue's are Busi, Ferran, Raphinha and perhaps Eric.

This guy can't play as CDM here.

 

[fergus90]

Absolutely class for the goal. He’s done well since coming on.

 

[Jakabor]

[jamrock]

....lol

 

[jamrock]

He's gonna be even better next year after he settles in or we'll make 20+m on him easy.

 

[JamDav1982]

Nice assist.

Midfield was much better when Pedri dropped deep beside FDJ and Kessie was higher up.

 

[fergus90]

I like him, I feel he’s solid and is silently gelling with the team each passing week.

 

[te amo barca]

His awareness of when to pass/release the ball when teammates are around him is bad, but decent with his back towards goal.

 

[jamrock]

He gonna work out, can't turn shit over night unless you were always shit (Torres), just give him time.

 

[ajnotkeith]

Has a bit of a knack for getting into the box and making runs high up the pitch.
