Like I said I didn't want to mention the "The English Paulinho" in case I took the L. But in general I was never for the signing of Mcguane because I watched him play and me and my cousin had the same conlucion on him. I have also said before that we shouldn't buy many random players in the same position as promising players because I will have a feeling that their chances will be blocked. And I was right when Mcguanne played instead of Riqui in many games despite being average. I never watch players we sign old games, but had to watch him because we barely sign English players. I just wrote that he was a talent but maybe should have given my negative thoughts on his ability, but I didn't in case he impressed.
It seemed like you praised this signing. You should not praise Barca for buying these types of player in a Mcguane thread because I will think you was happy with the signing of him. Also you didn't mention you were unhappy either so hard for me to believe you. No point in signing players when they clearly don't fit the profile even tho they don't cost that much. Not happy with the signing at all. You can praise Barca for taking a risk on a technical player like Arthur. Not proven in Europe, but has everything Barca need in the midfielder. But ok if you say you were against the signing of him then fine but you never mentioned it so hard for me to take you serious like you didn't take me serious when I knew Mcguanne was a young paulinho. But okey I believe you.
Didn't meant that. I just think they blocked Thiago's progress by either play Song and Fabregas over Thiago when he was on the bench. or get subbed in to play instead of him. Thiago didn't play many games as I hoped for and much of the blame was because Fabregas and Song were signed.
Gerard Romero was the source. Normally he is reliable but was wrong.
I know what you said. You don't think he is good enough and I think he maybe can be decent backup option. For me still behind Roberto and Semedo, but still decent for me. Thats just my opinion on Palencia, but the lies here is that you think he was average/shit last season which is clearly a lie. He carried our defence last season. I fucking know his weakness is attacking but his overall play was outstanding, especially in defence. And thats fact whether you like it or not.
You clearly had not watched him play before he signed as you never remotely claimed to know him as a player.
It is a fair argument to be against that signing due to him being in way of La Masia players. That is enough without trying to revise the argument to say 'from start I knew he was the English Paulinho'.
I want Barca B to keep taking punts on players if see something think can develop and never claimed anything about him as being a great player. If that means playing in place of la masia youngster who is ready for b team that is different but that is not really case here anywauy.
Song rarely if ever played in CM when Thiago was on the bench. He did not affect the playing time of Thiago bar maybe one or two games. If that. Thiago still got a lot of minutes but less than season before as Barca played a different formation for majority of season.
Our whole debate around Palencia was how his performances for B team can translate to first team squad. Palencia was solid in third tier and worked hard. Never looked to me remotely close to a player that would make step up to first team level. You claimed he was 'next Puyol'.. 'better RB than Roberto'...'should be promoted with Alena'.... 'will kill myself if wrong' etc.
I never said he was 'shit' and was the first on here to say he had 'Puyol' like attitude but that wont be enough. You need to go back and read that debate again as you dont seem to remember it very clearly.
His overall play was never outstanding. He was solid defensively, had great attitude and not great going forward. All the reasons I said about him not being good enough technically to be an attacking full back at Barca and not strong enough defensively to play at higher level I said at time and still believe.
Third time...
DID YOU MAKE UP ABOUT WRITING FOR YOUNGCULES TO PASS OFF THEIR TWEETS AS YOUR OPINION?
Think I know answer from you ignoring the question.
