All the histrionics and hyperbole about how awful some of our players are rubs me the wrong way. You can argue about whether Alcácer was what we needed, whether he was worth the price we paid, whether he's adapting to our system, his current form, etc., but all this gratuitous bashing of players is ridiculous. Alcácer is not a world class striker, but has played for the Spanish NT several times and has a pretty impressive scoring record. Getting so little playing time isn't easy, and most competent players would struggle in this situation. Get some perspective, guys.
I've followed Barça for a long, long time. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. I watched Barça fans bashing Xavi and begging the board to get rid of him by the end of 2007-08 because he was "mediocre". All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
