Pedri’s 1st season in Top flight football -
1) Golden boy
2) Euros 2020 best young player (Mount was eligible for this award and his team even got to the final)
3) Euro 2020 team of the season (Mount was eligible for this and his team got to the final)
4) Balon D’or Young player of the year.

This is going to kill them.


Pedri, currently is heads and shoulders above Mount.

I don't even know why we are having this clear argument


What is a Mount sef? Animal, place or thing?

No team will ever dominate the way Barcelona did in 09/10, and 10/11.

donstan18:
The shot pass merchant Pendri never beat Jorginho stats, Na Mount you wan make I compare am to?

Person wey never even reach James stats.

GTFOH

No be you way be day compare drogba to R9 the other day?


Na me do mistake to think say your absurdity don heal.


No vex

Capaldi:
Stop living in self delusion. Nothing pedri has done presently or in his entire career places him miles ahead of Mount. You and your likes need to chill.

Continue living the lie.. E go soon clear

donstan18:
Pendri 5G/A this season

Jorginho 12G/A this season

Guy, stay in one place and stop running around showcasing your absurdity. We are still debating Pedri and Mount.... Now now now, you don bring JOGGINGHOE come the statement.

Capaldi:
Nigga you are typing hogwash.

I think English is the problem here.


I said, Presently!!! But you and your fellow yansh-thinking stan wouldn't comprehend.

Capaldi:
Pedri might be the bigger talent but currently nothing he has done places him above Mount. You guys need to chill the fuc...k out.

Currently, he's MILES ahead of Mount. Passing, vision, long balls ( newly activated and almost perfect) and of course scoring from open play.

Putting him and Mount in the same sentence RIGHT NOW is absolute blasphemy

donstan18:
Lol. Thunder wey don fire you finish.

Na by short pass? What has Pendri achieved and don for his club?

You don start to day think from yansh again. Weldone!!!

donstan18:
Shurrup!!

A UCL winner who’s better than Penduri who does nothing but short pass and awoof goals.

Are you seriously trying to compare Mount with Pedri?

Please don't abeg.... Make thunder no fire you

andrewbaba44:
No be by who tay pass at times

I have no problem with mats or de Jong being captain but Araujo looks like a leader sha

For Barca, it's been so since Pep days

jpmoriarti:
We have to have a La Masia Captain. Mats and Frenkie are not from La Masia.

Not always. If the oldies leave now, either MATS or Frankie would be captain

Toooooo Cold!!!

Kai

jpmoriarti:
Araujo could've held on for more money at Barça. He could’ve easily left and got more money elsewhere.

But no, he WANTS to stay. A player fully committed to this project, a player continuing to develop under #XaviBall.

And a player we LOVE having at this club

A future captain in no distant time. Once Busquets retires, it has to be Ronald Araújo as the La Capita.

Lol. Before Araujo go smell captaincy go tay.

MATS and DeJong are still ahead in pecking order.

YoungZee1:
There is no elite managers they wil give 1bn that won't do better than pep..

Pep has paid his dues to earn any amount he asks for.

No be beans to carry team to win treble as an academy coach.

Make Klopp too try that one and he can now be and ask Liverpool for any amount.

LostMyZeal:
Ofcourse, he'd prefer this kind of arrangement where he'll be forming senior man.

As a football don wey he be nau

Abi, at least he doesn't rank with a league that has rival fans comparing him with this man

mostob:
Freiburg

Frankfurt, abeg. No vex

Now that Dest is ruled out in the first leg against Freiburg, who should start I'm the right-back position?

Oscar or Araujo?

andrewbaba44:
They are not using klopp

Some clowns here where compare conte to pep before

Confused people

Them suppose knack two by two for head for whoever compare Cuntay to Pep.

hensben:
Enrique did treble too with barca does that mean he is better than Klopp

There's a reason why Enrique isn't in the picture.

LostMyZeal:
Don't worry yourself; I believe Leeyo will make this team win again.

So, are you in support of swapping both goats or not

I would have... But Leo would never stoop so low to play for ManYoo...

hensben:
Klopp will not be starting kroos and Modric in all games, he will turn camavinga into a beast. Klopp is the manager that turn unknown players into world class, rotates very well also. Pep was privileged at barca.

That privilege and what he achieved is what Klopp will so pray to have.. Let him try to a treble first..(UCl, inclusive). Then we can have this conversation.

But for now..... Pep is head and shoulder above him

LostMyZeal:
His stans always dey dodge that imagination


It's so scary playing alongside the Magwires and McToms

Them no even wan imagine that thing

So your team assemble the most expensive team in the EPL and yet, una still day languish for 7th with Ororo...


How useless can Manyoo get?

E be like say e don day enter una body wotowoto

BoomBucks:
I wish there was a downvote button on Nairaland and a thread moderator

SMFH!!!

Eyan Quora and Reddit

Lol.

Kilishihunter:
You said castilla is the better academy and you are showing me the number of graduates playing in the top 5 leagues which they are even both tied at 42, So if my my graduate is playing at Roma and yours is playing at Greuther furth you'll still want to use that one to level up ba, Why didnt you another picture of the graduates with the most success , If you bring out any best academy list that la masia or ajax's own isn't numero uno currently then only you know where you got your list from, Google is your friend
I dont even know why i'm freaking arguing this with you sef

You are funny cos this argument of yours with that guy is a no-brainer.

Everybody knows that Ajax and Barca academies are the best in the world and RM can only try to play catch up.

But you know the white fowls would continue to want to stay relevant so, allow am use google to soak himself in tears.

You just gotta admire Rakitic...man gave his All yesterday

March your subbbbbbb

Bimmarlykay:
Messi don't deserve to be judged or disrespected in Barca cus he has giving us his all...i wonder how J.p can just hate/blame Messi.Xavi just started relax brov its takes few seasons for other coaches to read Xavi and his game plan think (Tuchel)..tho i pray not.

I've been thinking about this recently and I can't but pray that Xavi perfects how to change tactics easily when things don't go as planned from the wings.

Although I saw him do it yesterday during rhe closing minutes of the first half where he deployed Dembele to play through the middle, leaving Alves as the winger and a back 3 of Pique, Araujo and Alba.

Good thing we have a dynamic midfield now so we can hope for the best

Today's date is special!!!

OhBritannia:
By the way some plastic fans or some simp fans on Facebook are Just annoying.
Comparing the women's win against Madrid to the men's game against Sevilla
Lmao i hope they know that football for men is different than football for women.
It's like they have forgotten that under 15 boys beats the USA women's football team which are the best in the world even though the under 15 boys which are mostly 14 years old even went easy on them.
Barcelona women are good but please don't disrespect the men.
I am sure under 15 boys in my area in Lagos will defeat the best 11 women footballers from FIFA in 2022

No day whine yourself oooo. Barca women go beat CR5 and him teamamtes even if all of them get belle.

hensben:
Xavi is doing same now I presume. My point is Barca already have an identity and philosophy so with money any son of the soil there can excel. Pep even met better players and added to them.

Liverpool also wasn't a team to be ridiculed. Imagine dominating the EPL and already have 5 UCLs.

Pep re-invented Barca and made it a formidable team even after disposing of the heavyweights like Ronaldinho and all. Taking a declining team whose relevance in the laliga and Europe was at stake and made it a world-beater, winning lots of silverware that even Klopp can only dream of.

jpmoriarti:
Chaiii this one na see finish.

Me that analyses football for some sport channels.

Dropping deep is not what I am talking about.

Question is what do you do when the team does not have the ball? How do you press as a cohesive unit? How do you react when the team was under immense pressure?

Some of us here like tespidd would rather have the team continue to struggle and become useless so that he could be proven right that this team cannot do well without Messi, at least not until another 4 or 5 years.

Pathetic if you ask me.

Well, #XaviBall proves that we can become a better team even without Messi.

It's only convenient that a forward's off the ball pressing and movement should be against the opposition amd if there's a need to track back, let others who contribute lesser than what Messi fo in attack do that.

That said, in this kind of Xavi setup, there's no denying that Messi would press and that from the back too, but it won't be too often because even oppositions would be scared to completely dash forward knowing fully well the kind of danger they can face if we get the ball.

Most of you here dont know when to ignore JP. He's that kind of person that will only see from one perspective of footballing view and not the other, especially not recognizing that there are players who do well with conservating energy for attacks, pressing from the front than defense.

Imagine him trolling a player who has been the pinnacle of our attack for years, covering midfield lapses by playing so deep that you'd wonder if he was a CM or a forward, yet still had the most assists and goals for the team. Somehow, it now rests on him to defend after doing all that work because JP wants it to be so.


You guys have the time to even start with him. Some of us here already know he can't be redeemed so we just let him pipe on with his obscure analysis.
