What are you four? Figo wasn't Barca youth, the best prospects, and gave much for Barcelona. Thiago is like a satan compared to Figo.
!!!! I'm out.

Schweinsteiger controls the midfield of bayern, no way pep is gonna bench him for Thiago, In last year's champions league Bayern lost only one game that was with Arsenal, in which Schweinsteiger wasn't playing and their midfield was shit without him...Really now?
Neuer
Lahm - Martinez/Boateng/Dante (two out of three) - Alaba
Thiago/Schweinsteiger
Robben - Müller - Götze - Ribery
Mandzukic

Well yes Neymar had this tag because he was playing in brazilian leauge and it was easy about him there,but he proved it wrong in the confederations cup.As for Thiago,he already knew the style of the team and had the skills and abilities to be great for us.But unfortunatelly we will never knowYou don't get it. I'm just saying if that was referred to Neymar then it's unfair and the "YouTube primadonna" is infact a very good talent, probably better than the "real" prospect thiago. The guy may not have even meant it that way so why argue.

Xavi and Iniesta weren't gods at this age either really, they were late bloomers. Talk down to Thiago all you want but if he gets the opportunity at Bayern, I have little doubt that he'll shine.
Pep played today Lahm as DM , that doesnt mean he gonna use him there but lets just wait and see.As i have said many times,its a confusiong situation with so many great midfielders.Pep has really great and many options to use,the only sure for me that they wont lose their Place are Schweinsteiger and GotzeHey, I'm just telling it as I see it. I have already been on record saying that I don't understand why Bayern bought Thiago anyways. This is what I can see Pep lining up anways.

I said that as a joke,he will never use Lahm as DM its a really stupid idea .I r know what he thought about today and played him thereI highly doubt that when the stakes are high (important games and not warm-up friendlies which are a joke for Bayern anyways) that Lahm will play DM; I didn't draw my line-up from any what Pep has done before with Bayern, these are just my thoughts.
Anyways. He has a great many options, yes, but he also has a bunch of stars and he needs to reign them in in the WC-year and he will need all his diplomatic skills.
I'm so dissapointed by the barca board. How could they let him go? Look at how thin our midfield is now. Do they really think some B player with almost no first team experience is a good replacement? Look at the deep squad bayern has and then compare it to ours...it's a joke really. Xavi can't play 90% of the games - the important ones, yes - but he's an old man soon...what a joke. And next season they're going to spend millions on a central midfielder, I can see it already. Bayern will crush us again next season. Maybe we will have a magnificent first half of the season again but in spring (and we all know that's the most important season in football) we will struggle because of how thin our squad is.

Yeah thats propably it,Maybe he could give Mandzukic a little bit of time as goalkeeper .Saw some saves he did in training in youtubeHe probably did not take the opponent seriously and thought, sure, why not?
