Well...that makes my comments from this season very stupid, but I like to pretend I know better than mr. Hernandez.

No it doesn’t.. you’d find people agreeing with you including myself about Rakitic not being a very good fit for us.. if that’s what your comments were about (just guessing) Rakitic is class in a more open style game, like Croatia and Sevilla play.

Also Xavi’s spoke some nonsense since he’s been in Qatar, claiming average players we are linked with have “Barca DNA”... and other strange stuff regarding Qatar.. so take things he says with a pinch of salt.

Guys look at this stats:

Until now in 2017/18 season Rakitic has played 71 games or 4995 min. So with next two games it will be 73 games or around 5.200 min!!!!!

Truly underrated . He was our third best player in our domestic double season (2017-18) ,behind Messi and Mats .

what's barca Dna ? . It's a phrase invented by fanboys to ridicule those players who don't play Pep's style of football

 

[KingMessi]

Didn't it first come up during Cesc's transfer saga to here?

Definitely not invented by fanboys or whatever you're on about.....

Like KingMessi said above Xavi has used it as a serious term for years.... even before we got Cesc.

Xavi calling him the most complete midfielder but retards in this forum giving me shit before the WC for calling Rakitic elite, does Xavi not know what he's talking about and is being biased then?

Xavi might have mentioned that but our fanboys use it more often than anyone for the purpose i mentioned .

Xavi is most definitely as biased as you can get and has a history of rather odd comments on other players. So I'd never take his word as gospel in regards to our own players.

That said, Raki is of course much, much better than the majority of this forum believes. Is still think we should replace him, though - or at least give him some proper competition. Not because he's not a good player, but because we need someone quicker and more mobile, imo.

 

[FCB1987]

maybe he's fatigued but not a good first half

 

[Devils]

Atrocious first half.

 

[Hamzah]

We are seeing the limitations of rakitic, it’s vital that Arthur develops and replaces him

 

[xXKonan]

A lot like first half of the 2017/18 Season Rakitic there.

Slow and struggling under pressure and his passing has been weak.
