Oliseh is a right winger. Lamine is already there.

Barcola: 26 / 101 = 25.7

In the previous season: 46 / 94 = 48.9
I was talking about profile, not position.

Tf would I care about those numbers? Dunno what they mean. I've seen all three players in games and Barcola/Oliseh are superior without a doubt to Nico.

Been a keen watcher of Nico since 2022. Unfortunately, Nico is not ideal for 1v1. That is an illusion. He is not really great at dribbles either no matter what the stats posit.

If you want a player that uses pace and runs into space more on the wings, Yes.....but to break/unlock a tight marking defence a la Yamal, look somewhere else. He wont offer more than someone like Raphinha or Balde is offering from the wings....and a Raphinha offers more than that

For depth or to assure for injuries, maybe....but for 60m???? It will be a dumb idea

Won't take a Nico W here, because as Horatio correctly points out the red card played a part big part in the game

That being said, the only people who doubt nico are the Capitan Hindsight of Barca forum.

Currently on 16 goal contributions, 9 goals 7 assist.

Will probably finish the season with around 12-14 goals, and 10-12 assist.

Those are the kinda numbers raph use to put up and we all know how he was talked about before this season.

Then again most have forgotten 🤔

I don't think we should spend a lot of money on a winger this year.

Need to be striker in 2025. LW in 2026. If he sticks around another year there he'll surely be an option. I don't think the club can afford to wait for a striker until next year unless they know for sure they will be able to sign Isak if he stays.

Sesko, Gyokeres, Osimhen all going to move this summer. Possibly even other guys like Ekitike. All these guys are far from perfect options, but it's a market with multiple teams needing a striker so they will be gone.

If we can even spend a lot of money on a striker or a winger it need to be Lewandowski's replacement.

The only way to go for Nico is in the case we decide to do a PSG and play with 3 wingers upfront who change positions (with Raphinha being the main one in the middle). Because in such case a very good starting winger is mandatory.

Otherwise this will be a bad allocation of resources IMO.

Plagiarism is a serious problem on the Internet.

Stop stealing my idea lol.

Its a good idea though.

We could even have a system where all three wingers rotate and create a ton of movement,

precisely so Gavi can crawl in from behind the goal undetected and score the goals.

I'd do it. Isak is a pipe dream. Other names don't attract me much. I'd be super happy with only Nico and a back-up fullback in the summer.
