Mats Hummels

[Youngie]

Hummels was "brilliant"? Slight exaggeration. What did he do that was so brilliant?

 

[BarcaOG]

hummels was excellent bar the early mistake. won every single header and clean with possession... that dortmund team is something else

 

[Youngie]

78% possession is "clean with possession"?

There's some serious Hummels hype machinery all over the internet and its quite evident here.

 

[ThwiX]

I'm 100% sure that he's the best defender in the world when it comes to aerial battles. He is immense in the air, won everything. We need someone who's good in the air, right?

He was good in the air, he read situations constantly and came out with the ball, his positioning was good and never caught out.

Just you think that mistake justifies you thinking he isnt good enough.

Someone who thinks Amorebieta is good enough for Barcelona isnt really worth debating center halfs with.

^ So did Subotic

Right. So why are you debating with me then?

Everything?
The guy basically gave RM their only goal and still played better than any of our CBs did against RM this season
but it doesn't matter ,with Gotze and Lewandowski leaving to Bayern ,and with them most likely reaching CL final (may be even won it all) ,the this is a team that isn't gonna sell any one else of their stars

I never go by hype. Saw only the 2nd half and he seemed to be very good. Waaaaayyyy better than our current defenders.

I say buy both Hummels and Subotic I even think lewandowski would be much better signing than Neymer. The guy is a true great CF and creates opportunities as well. Perfect companion for messi.

 

[Youngie]

Jesus. People here are losing their minds over nothing.

 

[MrXavi_The_Midfield_King]

Passing was a bit off, probably as a result of his blunder in the first half but defended like a boss, just like Subotic his partner in crime

 

[fcbdna]

I noticed a certain Hummels loosing out to a skinnier Varane in an aerial tussle in the 18 yard box.

 

[JamDav1982]

Jesus. People here are losing their minds over nothing.

People are seeing a defender that showed just about everything that lacked last night.

He did give the ball away a few times but to be honest that is not a common thing, his passing is one of his main assets.

Teams have identified him as the man to stop with that ball at his feet before.

 

[ammarfcb]

i don't see him much. but i wouldn't buy him based on that game

Yep buy Lewandoski. Where does that leave Messi? right wing?

Neymar - Lewandoski - Messi upfront would be cool though, but won't happen!
