Well with Xavi staying and LaLiga over. We will know where his allegiance lie.

I feel that the biggest losers with Xavi deciding to see out his contract will be Faye and Roque.

I think both would have seen more opportunities with Marquez for example.

I think Lewa will stay and he will be 36 soon....so he will need rest - would surprised me if Rawke doesnt get a lot of playing time next season

Did you even watch some games he played for Paranese? Meh...

I watched a lot of his games for CAP. They played a boring defensive system where it's hard to stand out. He stil did in many games.

People who want him to be a flashy player with fancy dribbling etc. will always be disappointed. That's not who he is. What he'll bring is attitude, hunger, great movement and goals. Which in the end is the most important for a striker. I couldn't care less if he'll have few bad touches or poor passes every game. Suarez did that as well. And he was in his prime years not a just turned 19 yo kid coming from Brazil trying not only to adapt to a new system that's totally different to the one he played in before but also life outside the pitch in a foreign country.

He's a long term investment not someone who was supposed to win us games this season. And he did that as well when actually given a chance. I know it's a lot to ask from as spoiled and impatient fan base as we have but give him time.

Tbf I think Xavi is actually holding him back a bit and saving him from harsh critics from people who expect immediate results. Give him enough time to adapt in trainings but now that the season is basically over he'll hopefully get minutes and play without pressure. If Xavi doesn't want to bench his Polish buddy then at least play Roque ahead of Felix and Ferran who should not be here next season.

There is no chance he goes to Copa right? He can have a proper pre-season and than we will see. He won't get minutes as a 9 but he should play more in the Raphinha role.

Still depends a little on how the Felix situation evolves - I would be open for another loan... But I reckon Madrid are eager to sell and he has done enough to maybe attract a PL side to take a chance on him for 30-40M? Than I think they would sell, but it's of course all speculation.

Copa? Nah. He has played like 200ish minutes for us and never set the world on fire before either...

We need him to step up big time next season.

Lewa is not going to get much better, but patience is needed.

Hopefully now that we have nothing to play for, he gets a run of games at CF with our best XI.

Lewa can sit his ass down now and shave his legs.

This guy has weight problems, that's the reason he doesn't play. Xavi is throwing dust in the eyes of journalists, saying that he needs to improve his tactical aspects. Xavi simply does not want to publicly humiliate the player. Roque is in terrible physical shape. And it was terrible when he played in Brazil. That's all. As soon as I saw this guy I said Depay 2.0. I don't understand why we bought this guy.

You were also telling us all how good Ferran is.
