"Coutinho can function in multiple systems"

"Barcelona is too slow for him and it's too rigid as it doesn't allow him freedom"

Even though heatmaps show the freedom he has in Barcelona is similar to the freedom he had in Liverpool. In fact he covered more area in 18/19 than he did in 17/18.

"Barcelona is too slow for him."

And when people bring up Bayern, now the excuse is that it requires too much pressing and too much support for the striker? Also Gnabry, Coman, and Sane are quite versatile. Able to run out wide to stretch the defense, able make runs during counter attacks, they cut inside (like Coutinho), and they also function as inside forwards - especially Gnabry.

Additionally, there's a 17/18 year old player playing more akin to a "classical number 10" down the middle right now, and he's doing pretty fine. Why is capable of doing it, and not Coutinho?

Seriously listen to yourself: it's not the right type of LW role for him, it's the right type of LM role for him, it's not the right type of number 10 role for him, the team is too slow for him, Bayern's no. 10 role requires too much pressing for him, Coutinho needs runners to playmake but in Bayern with all the wingers and strikers in the world...it required too much 'supporting' for him?


The number of buts being for this player is absolutely ridiculous...

Coutinho and Pedri are different players and not much excuses as he hasnt been good enough even though the slow way Barca play is opposite of what he thrived in at Liverpool.

Heat maps are irrelevant to points being made anyway.

I was talking about musiala playing for Bayern. He's doing well.

So the areas in which Coutinho touches the ball the most is now irrelevant to the matter of his role being too rigid in comparison to Liverpool? wow...

The amount of love for a player that has done absolutely nothing is impressive.

bbz saying that griezmann and braith would have same numbers of goals if they would have same nr of shots towards goal


difference is 90% of Messi's shots are blocked by deffenders who defend as a bus while Griezmann and Braithwaite waste big chances game after game.


So far Griezmann missed an open net , angle was a bit hard but still . He's starting to rival Alexis Sanchez's first 2 seasons in terms of monumental misses.


Braithwaite missed a 1v1 . Not only did he not even hit the goal , he shot above it from around 7 meters away. Pathetic miss.

Griezmann miss was not that bad, weaker foot also. Braithwaite cant be forgiven even if it is his weaker foot (his was clearer and he and time)
