Paulinho

[PhilS]

It's hard to criticize Valverde's subs against AM, since the subs he used played great. We've seen great play off this bench this season from multiple players, which I hope convinces Valverde to make at least 2 subs no later than the 60 minute mark every game.

The way Barca plays causes very serious endurance problems for the opponents. Bringing in fresh, speedy legs off the Barca bench is the way to maximize this advantage.

Those who were moaning about Barca signing Paulinho instead of Matuidi, take a time to go to JUVENTUS.com and read Matuidi thread, if you are not watching their games.

There was no reason to expect Paulinho to do any better. And he cost twice as much.

It's great that he's doing well, but completely unexpected. Again, it's on him to silence our doubts. Not on us to not doubt a player who hadn't played in Europe for years.

Paulinho takes very good care of his body. His wife, a nutritionist, monitors his diet, making sure he’s at peak physical condition.

Paulinho really pulls off his current beard and hairstyle, he almost looks ugly without them.

Did you prepare lotion?

a lot

 

[Lutece FC]

Remember when a lot of you insulted him ... Listen to me next time.

 

[Barcaman]

108 passes - 96% percent. Almost scored too.

 

[CatalinR10]

ffs he deserved a goal

 

[Albo]

Our best mid.

 

[Joan]

whats your say?

really amazed myself

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

He is good.Exactly what this team was missing!

 

[Xaviniesta]

Needs to be a starter over rakitic. He offers something different when possesion isn't working. Look at the impact this guy is making and compare him to someone like Gomes from last season.

 

[Ousmane Dembélé]

Worth the 40m. Iniesta needs to be converted into the Xavi role since he can't run anymore and we should play a Paulinho-Busquets-Iniesta midfield.
