Frenkie de Jong

[JamDav1982]

He is a far better footballer than Casado.

Clearly.

Was much better in last two games came on for him and better tonight.

Was class today and Flick will know it.

But needs someone to do the dirty work for him. That's why him and Casado work well together.

 

[MonteCuler]

Good game by Frenkie and a great goal

Keep it up like this and we have no problems (although we should still sell him if we ever have an opportunity)

 

[MonteCuler]

Frenkie: "Of course we can catch Real Madrid in La Liga."

The f outta here.. he doesn't intercept even 10% of the balls Cassado does, ironically Cassado perhaps makes 5% of his salary. 

 

[JamDav1982]

This season not as clearly not trusting ankle previously.

Won ball back plenty tonight and last season etc his stats for winning ball back are slightly better than Casados this for example.

He is better on the ball than Casado and much more positive with it.

Better than Casado tonight, better in last two games came on for him.

Casado was decent tonight though. They played well together.

It’s not him or Casado, they’ll look best together. No other midfielder to form a duo with Frenkie on high enough level.

That’s only with Pedri out.

He’ll see lots of minutes if he keeps it up.

 

[jamrock]

Only a massive de jong fan could say with a Straight face he was better than casado tonight and Horatio didn't say that lol.

 

[JamDav1982]

He was clearly better than Casado tonight.

Much better with ball, scored the opener and won ball back a good amount.

Better than him in last two games came on for him also.

Casado not been great recently.

Their is no them together, it will always be casado and pedri together.

He's a good option off the bench and to get a start every now and then.

He'll be useful in that role if we are to win anything this season.

 

[JamDav1982]

Casado and Pedri pairing is not all that strong as last two months has shown.

FDJ been better with Pedri the past few.

FDJ if scared to tackle though.. then shouldnt even play but seems past that for now at least.

 

[TacticsTim]

Maybe one of his best games ever. Everything i always wanted from him, energy agression quick passes finally came. He wasn't lazy he wasn't spinning around and dribbling instead he made great quick passes and won duels. Hope he can carry this mentality.

 

[soul24rage]

Worked well with Casado.

Will be interesting what Flick will do once Pedri comes back

 

[FCBarca]

Could be playing for contract or auditioning for a summer exit ahead of World Cup year and last 12M of his contract

Laporta reportedly will de register him for next season if he doesn’t accept an exit

The good is that he has been an asset of late vs a lazy ass, whatever happens until June is fine with me since I know he will be done playing for Barça

 

[ajnotkeith]

He's a good player and I doubt the board will want to lose him for free.

This season will be decisive for him. I think he'll play an important part in the second half of the season and probably ends up renewing.
