He was always a mediocre player. A bench material at best, for sure not Barca material. He is just stealing minutes which should go to Demebele, Malcom or Alena.
I liked him before he had his bad knee injury vs Roma in 2015, but since then he's lost a yard of pace due to it. He was never the quickest before but fuck me he's so slow now.
But....but...the manager is always right. Valverde is never wrong. "Muh balance" "Workhorse" "Ball shielding" bla bla bla
Incoming [MENTION=16942]BBZ8800[/MENTION] gibberish about how Valverde is right to use Rafinha and how every manager ever in the history of football always makes "4 right decisions and 1 mistake"
Messi is coming back so he'll be benched now thankfully but we'll lose talents like Dembele and Malcom because we've a braindead cunt of a manager who's a scaredy cart
Well, he does work hard. All he's missing is the world-class talent. He's a good guy to have on the team, he never stinks up the joint. But he is exposed when he plays this much, he can never be Barca starter material. I'd start Dembele on Tuesday, assuming Messi will only be up for replacing Dembele at 60 minutes.
Oh hell, who am I kidding, Valverde is that fucking stupid. This guy plays ahead of Dembele and Malcom. Sackable offence right there. Jeopardizing large investments to play with mediocre players. Bird brains in the board really accept this atrocious management of the squad?
