Honestly, I hope he whenever he gets game time hope he does well.

Going to need all the help we could get this season.

So, unrealistic things and overrating/lying like this is always triggering me.
About Puig, why should I hate the kid?
Ok, he is a little annyoing as a person (he seems like a needy/boring friend).
But outside of that, I don't think that his type of football can succeed + paired with his personality who is more concerned about social status, girls, fame and Instagram.
His physique is horrible, his skills are beyond meh and his attitude isn't promising.

About guys mentioning you, that is just a regular Barcaforum trolling show which we do for years, don't take it seriously.

Yeah, you are concerned about how other people rate him. You even get triggered when people rate Messi and Pep, it says a lot. Maybe you are a bit contrarian by heart...
I don't really base my opinion on other things than what I see (and sometimes other people helps me see things). I don't care how other people rate the players though, but of course I also get triggered when people don't rate Busquets or Puig for example, or when they really rate Moriba or Griezmann...

Puigs personality is something I focus very little on. I don't think I like Busquets as a person either, but both give me a lot as players - they are great to watch. I don't care about how they are as friends...
His physique is GREAT. He is quicker than most players and benefit a lot by it. I don't think anyone can point to five situations where he lost out because he was too weak, and your argument that he is not getting close to opponents because he is too weak is simply ridiculous.

I don't take it too seriously, but I notice I am really on a lot of posters minds everytime something happens around Puig.

Roberto and Griezmann chosen ahead of him when FDJ, Pedri and Coutinho not available.

Koemans opinion doesnt seem to have changed much.

No, neither his opinion on Puig or on the 4-3-3, where Laporta seemed to demand change.
To be fair, with Messi leaving, Koeman might feel even more the need to go out on his own ideas rather than someone else's, he knows his time is ticking.

Going by Puig's example, you'd better base your player ratings on other people's opinions.

sorry but saying that his attitude / mentality is a problem as well is only telling on your own bias. we can talk all day about his ability but dude has shown nothing but loyalty and initiative. works hard and shows spirit on the field. suppose you didn't like it when he volunteered to take that penalty in the shoot off as well?

I am talking about different personality traits.

Social media, pushing himself everywhere (Laporta, golf), leaking info, not willing to go on loans and rather enjoying nightlife and fame as Barca's star etc.

Nobody is denying that he is devoted to Barca, though.
I am talking about personality traits which don't correlate with top class sportsmen.

if he did actually leak info then that is a major issue. which we don't know. love how you just listed it off next to absolutely benign stuff

What a goal!!! really making a statement (goes for the shot more often now). Should try and leave so he can play regularly cause I don't think Koeman has him in his plans.
