Jeremy Mathieu

If Deportivo is any indicator, no we won't.

I don't think we can really blame him for giving that game away. Mathieu in the end should only be used at CB. We should promote a youngster for LB as cover for Alba.

Ever heard of the legend of Grimaldo ?

Ever heard of the legend of Grimaldo ?

Everytime I read that name I am reminded of the anime Bleach somehow.

It won't happen, but it would have been nice to see Camara at least have another look after a decent showing against Leverkusen. Needed for the B team, I guess. Can't imagine he will from here.

 

[God Serena]

Yeah, let's ignore by the fact that a lot of players fucked up in that game.

Sevilla 4-5 Barca.

Mathieu at LB has been a horror show from the very beginning. Even if you go back to last season. He's not a passable LB. He's not even bad. He's terrible.

Thats not news, but more often than not, he has been a solid stand-in as CB for us

He's been fu**ing horrible! But people who criticise him when he played CB need to check themselves, he's actually been more than alright.

 

[God Serena]

I'm seriously not even bashing him as a CB. At CB he should be our certain 3rd choice, arguably even in the starting squad over Mascherano. My problem is he's consistently used as our backup LB more often than used as our backup CB, and,* ahem*, certain people want to argue that Mathieu is some sort of scapegoat and everything that goes bad when he's at LB isn't his fault.

 

[serghei]

Mathieu can't start over Mascherano. He's a good-ish 3rd choice for CB and shouldn't get anywhere near the LB spot in a team like Barca. That's his level. A sub that could do fine in CB once something happens to our starting pair.

 

[El Flaco]

Marlboro had a really good first half.

 

[evilhita666]

He was good overall, and he even dared to go forward a couple times...

 

[Flavia]

He had a pretty good game. He was the best CB today. I surely prefer him to Vermaelen.

 

[Jombi]

A great game no doubt.

 

[God Serena]

Once again shows he's a quality player at CB.

 

[El Flaco]

Fantastic game from Marlboro.
