Lovely player to have.

Works hard in training and in matches, never complains but accepts his role.

I like him.

Why sub?
He is better than all of our attacking options except Fati.

Our lineup should be:
Fati, Braithwaite and two guys.
Probably Cou as a CAM and someone as a RW (not Messi).

Yeah, not bad as a sub to have guy like that. He obviously enjoys playing for Barca.

Yup. Should not be a starter in most matches. Probably not even good enough as backup 9 for Barca (in an ideal Barca squad), but as a third option at the 9 position who can be a sub and start in less important matches he is fine.

I liked his movement opening the space for Griezmann's goal. It's striker 101 but it's nice to see someone who gets it.

At the 9 this should be the goal depth wise:

1) Suarez quality player (peak Suarez obviously) as starter
2) Older striker (David Villa-like) who will still get plenty of matches
3) Braithwaite (or someone like him) who accepts limited playing time

That goal he scored from the corner, no one in our squad scores that one. They just won't be in that position at the far post. Messi would be chilling in the 15-20m area :lol:

On the contrary, I think he should start currently as he's the only 9 in the team. If he played the first half of that real betis game, we probably would've converted most of those chances griezmann missed
