If you see him called up for Espanyol then you'll know it's his Spanish waitress wife forbidding him to travel to Turkey with Croatian NT.

She looks so fake though! Always surprised to hear people from Croatia liking her. I mean there are better looking girls in every street here. But hey, different tastes.

Arda is the one jogging, but he covers less distance than Messi.

Arda has nothing to do with it.

Rakitic is one paced and slow.

Did I say he is fast or something?

Never said you did.

Rakitic is at best average and nowhere what Barca need in a starter. Never has been and one half season plugging gaps for Messi and Alves doesnt change that. They masked him more than anything.

Because she's somehow connected with people through social media. And people also know their story, so she's not a gold digger for sure.

Hopefully his injury gives Paulinho the chance to take his place

I don't want to see Rakitic in the starting XI for a while, he'll have to earn it now

Injury? Didn't read anything about him being injured in today's Croatian sportspapers. It's his usual bs not playing all games for Croatia. He should just stay on the beach and relax 24/7 because that's what he is all about these days.

I do hope Roberto benches him.

and paulinho does not have to earn it?oh i forgot he must play no matter what to justify his corrupted transfer
i don't want to see rakitić too since he's shit long time now,i'd much rather finally give roberto the place he deserves

I know not everyone here is a huge Rakitic supporter but I found this breakdown on how he will fit under Valverde after Enrique misused him to be interested. Definitely gave me hope that Rakitic can be a positive contributor for us this season.

Nice article. The biggest question here is can he play like that vs a stronger opponent. He was good vs Betis, but the problems for him start when he has less time to react, because opponent is pressing hard.

He will miss outof Espanyol and Juventus game due to injury.

Yet remains to be seen if true. I'll stay corrected if that will turn out right.
