FFS please retire or leave for China, USA or Japan. He is the one who ruined his legacy the most. For the last 3 seasons he has been disgraceful. Unfortunately if he continues no one will remember him for his great displays under Pep. His decline was by far the worst one.

Busquets is not the only problem. "New signing" Pjanic is an even bigger issue. Tells you everything about him when Koeman literally doesn't give him a real chance. Barto gifted Juve a valuable player on low wages and signed finished Pjanic instead. Neither Busquets nor Pjanic are good enough if you want to compete on the highest level. We're talking about one of the main key positions in Barcelona-system. We're stuck with both of them for years.

The boldest move from Koeman would be to put FDJ at DM and see if Trincao is any good as box-to-box midfielder. He'd have to improve a lot, but at least he has potential and legs. Playing Busquets and Pjanic is nothing other than wasting time.

I would love to see Trincao as a box-to-box midfielder. Ateast give it a run for a couple games, if he's good, we get an option in midfield with De Jong as a more dynamic Regista and it would let us a really good core midfield with Pedri or Puig as our creative options. Our most important area goes from being slow and lazy to hardworking and full of energy and spark. Koeman is likely leaving end of season and we're out of UCL and possibly Copa. We aren't in catching up to Atletico in the league either unless they slip up a couple more times AND we don't drop any LOL :shakeshead:. Worst case he plays as a winger and we potentially get a better option than Dembele rn

De Jong
Trincao Pedri/Puig

I just don't understand how in todays modern game. We have the most expensive and lazy squad... Our best recent midfield signings have been a 17 year old boy, Paulinho, and of course Frenkie.

Even our meme signing Paulinho was great for us in the 1 season he played + we made a profit from selling him back for fucks sakes. God knows profit is not something this club hasn't seen either. Coronavirus only made the financial situation worse. Our stadium hasn't even been started. Atleast Madrid is doing something productive while they can't have fans. Estadio Bernabeu is nearly finished while we're delaying elections LOL. You can't help but expect dissapointment for 5 more years.

Then you look at Pjanic with losing another promising midfielder in Arthur. You really can't come on both hands the amount of horrible signings the former board has made in the last 5 years.

yeah, xavi the bum talked(like 3-4 years ago) fondly about a colleague that helped him win it all. how dare he?!

i guess all other players and managers that have praised busquets over the years are bums too.

good thing we have a forum full of football experts in here.

Reminds me of that other famous quote.

Trincao is too soft to be a b2b midfielder. At least someone like Rakitic had a bit of physicality.
We need a proper fucking hardman like Van Bommel. That's why I liked Rijkaards teams. There was always a blend of skill and physicality.

Where is this nonsense with Trincao as b2b midfielder coming from? Just as stupid as shifting Griezmann into central midfield.
