Nico Williams

[serghei]

Nico and raphinha are both needed in the team. That's like saying Liverpool should have sold Jota if they got Diaz. You need about 5 top players for 3 spots.

Nico is another level for what the team needs.

He would be a starter and key player.

Raphinha would be benched if couldnt sell him.

Fati gets a hard time for his admittedly annoying Wumming about Messi/Ronaldo, but until recently the above poster has flown under the radar for trolling.

He doesn't make any serious attempt to make well-thought out posts and simply resorts to trolling. Every post he makes is a dig at Barca. That's ok now and then but it constitutes just about his entire post history, other than maybe talking up Real Madrid. Which is interlinked.

Good to see people recognise it. He should try to be fairer and more analytical in his posting rather than always trying to wind people up. He would be a better poster if he did, in my opinion

Assuming Williams continues to improve, one would clearly be higher in the pecking order though. Jota and Diaz there's not much difference, though I prefer Jota by a little.

I agree with your point though - it is a squad game.

Nico would have been a bomb but we do have Fermin and others who deserved their shirt last season.

Props to him for staying loyal. Maybe next season.

That's fine. Top teams have 50-60m bench players all the time in key offensive positions. Top ones, not the flops. They move on the flops like Ferran quickly.

 

[JamDav1982]

No top club is paying 50/60m for Raphinha as a bench player.

Nico is different level and for what team needs.

If Nico arrived Raphinha would be behind a 17 year old unless rested.

Besides, Yamal is just a kid. You need to rotate him a lot. You play him like an idiot every game, he ruptures something bad and then it's nightmare.

Nico is one of the best LWs in the world and he is way better suited for the Lw position than Raphi

This Blanco dude is crazy

 

[JamDav1982]

Raphinha is fine as a bench player really.

Can strike a great ball when gets central.

He is better suited, he's not one of the best in the world, and you need many options to go deep in every front. Season is very long and tiring.

raphinha is untransferable for me if the club can afford nico as it is. He's not coming atm anyway, and raphinha has a contract and likes the club very much.

 

[Messi983]

Nico, Yamal, Raphinha would be a great rotation for a year or two. Yamal's minutes have to be managed. But longterm ofc Raphinha would be oout.

Sadly won't happen, at least not now.

Im surprised about your opinion, imo there are not many worldclass Lws, who is much better than Nico except Vini?

One of the beat LWs in the world? 😀😀😀 We have 3 better only in Madrid. Boy has 6 goals in 36 matches as best league season.

 

[JamDav1982]

Nico is one of the top LWs going in past year and has the mix that all top clubs are looking for currently.
