Frenkie de Jong

[Loki]

Frenkie had a decent game, but he also had to play the position that doesn't really suit him. He has his strength in carrying the ball forward. Pedri played the more offensive 6 yesterday and Frenkie fell back most of the time to the backline to build up the game from there. In Flick's system, Pedri and Frenkie don't really fit to play next to each other as both have their strengths playing the more offensive 6.
I fear it will be very difficult for Flick to find Frenkie a permanent role in his system, where he can show his qualities. And that is longterm obviously unacceptable with his salary.

Betis played into our hands and were down within 5 minutes.

Have to keep praise relative to this.

It can only be to our benefit though if Frenkie is fit and playing well. Top player.

Two more good games for our boy and then we all know who will return.

On his last hiatus he said he had a alt account. He's probably around here somewhere already haggis'ing it up.

 

[Alik]

Even on his main, he still lurks sometimes.

My favorite non-youth player currently. Sucks that he earns so much cause I really want him to stay here and be pivotal. Good game

With Frenkie and Casado working together better and better each game, he will need to show his best to even earn his place as the 3rd CM in this team...

And Bernal is coming back.

 

[Skalman]

Better then he was rumored to be, deserves mote chances.

I would of course really like for Bernal to become a player for Barca going forward - but most fail and him getting injured might have been a blessing in disguise for Casado to step forward. Sure he was maybe rated above Casado before his injury at the start of the season, but Casado has PROVEN himself against a the strongest teams and came out on top - Bernal has done none of that yet.

Whyyyyy lol

He's super talented and love the way he plays basically. I do think he can work out here if put in the right position but I also understand if they cant risk that / need to move on from him cause he makes so much fucking money.
