Marc Bartra

[KhaledBarca]

Almeria and Celtic. We need height against those scots.

Pique, Bartra + Song/Busquets are the tallest players we have!

Imo Bartra hasn't shown yet he is a defender Barcelona can rely on especially in big tough games...

I hope he proves me wrong on the first occasion though...

 

[Galning]

And how exactly was he supposed to show that? He barely plays.

 

[tello]

True but when he played against Madrid or Bayern he showed quite a few flaws like the lack of speed and the lack physical power.

With accumulating experience you could overcome many minuses but not those two ones.

I agree he should have played alot more especially in some key moments from the last season but still from what I've seen from him so far isn't encouraging for the future of Barca's defense...

And how exactly was he supposed to show that? He barely plays.

Then he needs to get on loan in some team that he'll get plenty of time to show if he's capable or a waste of time.

 

[Ursegor]

THOSE dribbles.

 

[Flavia]

Playing better than pique, for sure.

 

[lostchild]

Playing better than pique, for sure.

yes

and we finally get to see Pique as LCB who stays back. (usually Mascherano when they play together)
suits him better.

Bartra is having a really nice confident game.. hope he plays more..

[KingMessi]

Did he play well? I couldn't watch.

 

[BarcaGirl]

He was really good today, much better than Pique.

 

[Indignado]

He played very well, maybe his best game in a Barça shirt although it's only Almería

 

[Dan1983]

He was really good today, much better than Pique.

This.

 

[pepi]

Played very, very good.

 

[barcanuck]

I like his offensive spark too .. most importantly though is for us not to concede when he is out there. Does wonders for a defenders confidence when they help keep a shutout.

 

[impeh]

solid game before the celtic trip, almost scored a couple of times too.
