I don't like his jerk-off name, I don't like his jerk-off face, I don't like his jerk-off behavior, and I don't like him. Jerk-off.

Commentator said he was voted the most annoying player in the LaLiga.

He is terrible defensively and almost cost us the game..we need better defenseman

He's been Barca's best lb in history. Still running up and down like a teenager.

Yeah, he has brainfarts but in all these years he was the legs on big chunk of Barca attacks.

Who do you get to replace him? Grimaldo, Gaya?

Now he surely needs help.

We need to phase him out like Madrid did with Marcelo

You could say same thing about Messi, Suarez, Rakitic, Busi, Pique etc etc. At some point every players career with Barca comes to an end.

Alba looks already a bit slower than what he used to be. When he loses his speed, not sure what's left.

He's still one of the fastest players we have and I see him repeat those runs with no problem. I don't expect him to become Cafu and play until his late 30s but he's surely still one of the best lbs out there.

Players like Busquets and Pique need to go but I'd keep Alba as long as he has legs.

1 goal and 9 assists in 26 games. Name me 3 LBs with better stats.

I don't like his whiny personality either, but it is evident that he is very important for the team's attacking game and everytime he is not playing the team lacks something. Of course he is not perfect and has his fuck-ups, but who got none? Even Alves, the prototype of a Barca-fullback, had his defensive fuck-ups. And no, I don't think he is on that prototype-level, but like Barcaman said, he has probably been the best LB in Barca-history.

He needs to be replaced sooner or later, ideally we got someone who gives him more competition for the starting spot than Firpo. Replacing him is not one of the priorities in the team though.

What I really hold against him is that he lacks discipline. Every time he doesn't agree with the referee/things don't go his way or whenever Barca is losing he loses his mind. Now that he is already 31, he'll never learn it. 9 yellow cards in 26 games speak volumes.
