Because 1, Bellerin is faster.
And 2, He is actually a midfielder, not a RB. Lets not alter this young man's career please.
He is crap at CM. potential superstar at RB.
His position is the one where he can help the team the most, and in this very day it is RB... And I agree with gasgas, if he remained a midfielder he would have been loaned already or sitting permanently on the bench in the best scenario, so actually his career changed for the better...
He is crap at CM. potential superstar at RB.
Basically agree. In previous seasons, he was very average in the midfield. I recall him consistently working the ball into dead-end areas and throwing positioning out of balance by not adjusting to other players. I believe he has improved overall as a player, but it's also possible he's stronger when sworking from back to front with the field ahead of him, instead of trying to orchestrate from the middle.
Thats what happens when you dont play for months and get random sub appearances here and there. He, and other players, need match fitness and match rhythm to perform at a high level. Just look at his performance at DM and as RW against Real Madrid. Brilliant. Give him trust and he'll shine. He's such a smart and composed player.
Lol
When we are giving Roberto time in midfield
And what do we do with Gomes, Denis, Rakitic, Iniesta, Rafinha?
And who do we play at RB?
Do we have to throw the whole team off balance just because Sergi Roberto was once a midfielder and so we believe he must stay there, even though he is worldclass at RB???
The barcaforum logic sometimes
Not all of this is directed at you Jombi
Take what's yours
The rest is for others
Are you drunk or what? Whether he is good as a DM, CM or RW is totally separate from whether he should be removed from his position as RB. Sober up.
First off i dont drink alcohol
Secondly you said he should be trusted in midfield
Are people hesitant because he used to be a CM or ? Because I can name plenty of world class players who played in different positions when they were younger. Positions change all the time. He's a RB now.
