Frenkie de Jong

30m player atm

He was average. Needs to step up

He was good until we started imploding again - as usual. We just cannot finish games off.

I still believe 90% of our problems will be solved with a somewhat professional front line (and not kids, makeshift solutions...).

He was good until Busi went out

Corrected for you

 

[Horatio]

He was one of the better ones.

Busi had some shocking giveaways and passes 5 or 10 minutes before he got subbed

My main gripe with De Jong are things I don't know are fixable for him, as it's going against all his natural instincts as a footballer. That is he is quite ponderous to release the ball and can pivot himself in circles before releasing a pass and he's quite hesitant to pick a pass further than 10 yards away.

He has tremendous abilities, but his game and Barca's game are not quite a happy marriage right now. Perhaps Xavi can coach him into it though, we shall have to see.

Having said that, like I said above, i do think he was pretty good today.

You need glasses.

You could literally replace him with a nobody and you wont see the difference.

But keep the copium lol.

Xavi have no time to waste and should do what Pep and Rijkaard did : level up quickly or gtfo.

The fact is, he is occupying a very important spot and we loose so much with him being brain farting for months and back passing the shit out of that ball.

 

[serghei]

He was good today imo.

 

[Messigician]

Whoever said he's good are the reason standards have fallen.

I want my 2019 Barca back

 

[jamrock]

He was good in spots, but he isn't putting a good game together.

 

[frostdude1]

He has had a very average season. With the rise of Nico and Gavi, we really have to ask if selling him for a big transfer might be a good thing.

 

[Kul_z]

If the players dont hog ball that much he could easily score a valid goal. He was our best player in first half, gassed in second.

This guy needs to grow a pair. Plays like a coward 90% of the time.

It's not cowardice; it's lack of smarts. His brain is slow. He doesn't have the football brain to be an influence on a top level team.
