Marc Bartra

[ThwiX]

He played great when he came on and did nothing wrong. He can still become a world class defender, but then he will have to play more, much more.

 

[tariqo]

i believe in him

he needs only the coach to trust him thats all

 

[Garrus]

The only thing in my mind right now, Is the constant recollection of bartra getting injured twice this season without even playing....

 

[Frejsgodes]

Needs to get a much playing time in the league as possible, starting this week against Levante.

 

[DonAndres]

Played great, would love to see him become a regular. He needs more trust from the management and I suspect he'll play a lot more for the remainder of this season.

Injuries in training happen.

He looked better than adriano to me. I dont see why they dont trust him. must be lazy at training or something...

Was thinking the same, to force a full back to play CB over a natural CB doesn't make sense. Bartra needs to gain coaches trust with a solid performance like today's.

 

[Galning]

It was probably because Adriano is more experienced. But then again, you don't gain experience if you don't play.

 

[Barcilliant]

Even if he does well we need atleast 1 world class CB to lead the defence. Bartra is inexperienced, Pique is mediocre, Puyol is eternally injured and Mascherano is not a CB.
Someone in the league of Kompany, Vertonghen or Hummels

True!!

 

[Barcilliant]

tbh Pique top form>Kompany,Verthongen,Hummels
unfortunately Pique has not been at his best for a few year now

Pique's best 2 seasons were his first 2. He has been in decline ever since.

 

[FCBarca]

I remember something Pedro once said about the squad in training, you can tell who the players are that didn't come through the cantera...That understanding is built over time and I trust that over Adriano who has his qualities but defensive lapses can be a costly issue with him...Trust in the cantera, go with Bartra

 

[Barcilliant]

Big fan of Bartra, thought he did well when he came on. Needs to be given more games. Well he'll have to play considering the injuries in defence. You never know he could end up saving the club a fortune in transfer fees.

We still need a CB. Pique inconsistent, Mascherano not a proper CB, Puyol is injured most of the time and Abidal's future is uncertain. Batra is still inexperienced but it looks like we have no choice but to play him. He looks a natural cb but it will take some time for him to develop. The staff have done a shit job handling him.

 

[dostoevskij]

liked his performance. he will start most la liga games this season!!! even if the managment has other ideas, who else should play ???

 

[Kerrybai]

Showed up when he replaced the "Accident"

What does have to do for mgmt. to trust him? Beggars belief!

Look how much more solid we looked in defence when he came on as sub.

But NOooo, they would rather play a 5 foot 8 " converted full-back who can't head the ball or defend very well. Genius.

He didn't show Tito up at all. Bartra was poor against celta and had a moment he could have been sent off. He was outrun and looked like an amateur, he could come good in the end but his lack if experience showed. Adriana was the only official choice and 99% of managers would have chosen him.
