La Liga | Round 24: FC Barcelona - Cadiz 1-1

[Bobo32]

Thing is Busi is the best player on the pitch. The only matches he can shine in.
Has nothing to do but to distribute the ball 30m from goal without any pressure. Everyone blows right past by him on counters but Cadiz is not really trying to attack so no biggie.

Yes he is and still he gets blamed on here
He is never the one to run on the counters though, that's the CB:s work primarily. He has stopped multiple counters this game with his positioning.
Can't understand why there is negative focus on him or the CB:s this game, they are the three players succeeding with their task.

Busi being our best player, equals the most boring game of the season.

 

[serghei]

Even when Busi is good on the ball, he still moves like a half-dead giraffe out there in transition...

You are genuinely a moron

Focus is on them in general because they show every week that belong into a museum. But from to time an opponent like Cadiz comes around who is not interested in attacking and they look good again.

 

[Bobo32]

The synergy in this team is just nothing special. There isn't one play where you can say "ah they've drilled this a lot, this is a good one," something where every pass, run, movement is on point, like a signature play if you will. Doesn't exist, it all just looks like we're making it up as we go. Disorderly and chaotic.

It's true.
A football attack is a chain of actions, mostly the chain is broken by bad decisions or technical faults by the french wingers (or Messi), and the midfielders are quite lost positionally.

This game made them actually look worse. Cadiz had a 1 attacking sequence and 1 free-kick near Barca's box and they almost scored twice.

This is the core of your argument. This, or how his face looks
How does Pedri look? (he is maybe the second best player on the pitch today, but still). hint: he's jogging as if he's walking in water.
Busquets with another "assist-pass" to Messi right now, you probably didn't see it?

Lionel Messi in 2021

Salary: 100.000.000
Killer instinct: 0

 

[Porque]

That was an incredible weighted pass by Busquets.

Pedri is again too peripheral. Sometimes by design though as he is holding the forward line alot of the time.

I just want him to get into the game and be more pivotal to our play. Mind you, this was a common complaint of a young Iniesta.

You guys are missing the point here. The point is to build a strong team again, not to have slow-ass has-beens who may look good vs La Liga cannon fodder, which is a massively declining league anyway.

Busi can't even cut it vs a decent Italian or German team like Gladbach or Atalanta. Even that level is too high for him. He's far too slow to be able to cover his position properly.

 

[wisconsincule]

That woulda been a Dembele golazo. Damn.

No one's missing the point except Bobo.

 

[serghei]

Great, now even Pjanic, another relic, is getting in ahead of Puig, after one of Puig's best games in his last start. Good work manager... fuck this shit .
