In Lucho we trust!
I really hope he gets a chance. He is certainly good enough.

Yeah but Granada do make me nervous with their lightning quick counters - would hate to see Bartra caught out and damage his confidence...Then again, a 2nd half insertion might imply the same...If Tito trusts Bartra, then a start at home would be a wise selection to see what we have with Marc

Vilanova: "Song rather than Bartra? Song plays because he has more experience, and we signed him for that position. He needs minutes."
Bartra will probably just play in the cdr games...

Nope. Tito may be the stubbornest man alive, but sooner or later even he's going to have to own up to the fact that Song is not a CB. Honestly, he was an extra midfielder against a team without any bite... wait until he's found out a couple of times against a bigger club and we'll never see him playing at the back again.

since we're conceding goals in almost every match, I don't see any harm in putting Bartra on against Benfica. Cardozo will miss the match so it won't be that bad for him to kick off his season.

Someone tell me, what is the deal with this guy? Why can we not play for incremental periods of time. Today 5 minutes. Tomorrow, 6 minutes, etc. How do we plan on permanently fixing our defensive woes? I am against the idea of consistently playing our midfielders, out of position. Especially Song and Busquets. The need to become specialists in their respective roles.

Tito probably sees something he doesn't like or it simply could be the experience factor. You can't put the young cub out hunting with the wolves yet.

It's the experience factor and the fact that Tito told Sandro to buy Song w/ the idea of Song supplementing Puyol and Pique as a CB. Sandro alluded to this in his ESPN interview last week, so I don't know how Tito can go back and play Bartra heavy minutes after requesting Song just for this very situation.

I'm sure he'll play in the cdr... Then, he better show if he's up to the task. And then maybe he'll start against a weaker side on la liga. Either Tito doesn't want to risk him in a big game, or he doesn't trust him.

If after the Clasico Tito is still unable to see what a terrible blunder he's made, I give up.

Tito has got to start him at Riazor.

Why? By then Pique should be fit again.
