FirstbornWds:
I always wonder how you come up with your ridiculous take...

Let's start with Aguero.... Is it the same Aguero that Pep bought Gabriel Jesus to rival that you claim was a sole pillar to Man City? In fact, Ferran Torres stood a better chance than Sergio if we are to talk about having better chances at playing a top 9? Let's not talk about the countless times Bernado Silva, Gundogan, Phil Foden and KDB played as a striker even with Aguero fully fit.

C'mon, respect us here because we didn't start watching football last night. Haba.

Now look at the next thing you said.... Xavi's Barcelona would suit Mbappe more... This might be through since we already know how much Xavi prioritizes wingers in his plays but hey, do you think Mbappe will leave an already made team like PSG where he stands a better chance to win trophies than come to a "rebuilding" Barcelona whose future is still in the bleak? Nawa for you o!!!!

I could go on and on to debunk most of the facts that you have mentioned here but that'd be time-consuming. Let's be practical with our reasoning to football and avoid sentiments, sometimes.

Ab3g

Like i said, injury hidered Aguero and you can blame Guadiola for not depending on a player that gets injured a lot.
The only player Guadiola can't change and won't change in his entire existence, is Lionel Messi and Aguero is not Lionel messi, so yes he will always buy competition for Aguero but nevertheless, Aguero still remains a legend in Manchester city, the player with the most goals in Manchester city.
He won numbers of trophies with the club and even won three more trophies with Guadiola and yes before his injury woes. Aguero was the best player in The premier league for many many years, it's like he was high way above the players in premier league, he had no rivalry but that's not even my point.
You people focus too much on criticizing someone without answering to the main issue.

My point is that young attacking minded players do well under Guadiola, look at sterling, Gabriel Jesus, Debrunne and many more.
Halland under Guadiola will do so well than Halland in Madrid.
And yes mbappe will do more in Barcelona because he will be the alpha of the team, he needs a team that he will carry on his shoulders, he can't go to Madrid and be an alpha.

joviegghead:
Poor passing? Strange performance?

Asides his missed penalty, the guy had a decent game. Stop typing what isn't true abeg.

Wtf?!

I was disappointed in messi's performance yesterday, because I turned up to watch him, he gave away the ball a lot which is unusual

Who is the alpha at Madrid or You think benzema will play forever abi ?

Mbappe is going to Madrid to be the alpha

I was not disappointed in messi performance and so do many people ,he did so well apart from the missed PK

Watching veratti's midfield masterclass yesterday made me see one of our own Gavi sharing almost if not all of the same similarities, Creative, Press resistant and highly tenacious in pressing and tackling, Omo that boy must renew

andrewbaba44:

I think not.

I went precisely to watch him display magic. He flattered to deceive, like he was doing in his final years at Barça.

Press resistant! No one could take the ball off him. Assuming Mbappe didn't pop up with last minute Winner, then Verrati was the best player on that pitch yesterday. He kept PSG ticking.

I see alot of Gavi in him.

That is it ,you want a magic performance but when you didn’t see it you think he had a bad game

Your opinion alone ,so Na you sabi

I wasn't alone in the opinion, it would appear.

L'equipe gave Messi a 3. I would give him a 5 because he played the whole game but he didn't effect the game in the way I thought he could. I wanted to see a Messi who was involved in every good attacking play from PSG but he shied away. Even Neymar effected the game more even though coming from the bench.

Ogufe

Man this thread slowed to a crawl since the departure

Where's ddipset my guy? Is he now on the PSG thread? I haven't debroslink and homesteady in a while too

Very true.
These are people that watches football matches with their brains and not just their eyes

Lol ,Neymar effected the game because he gave an assist that mbappe had to take on 3 players to make it happen

Messi didn’t effected the game because he missed a pk ,Messi has a very good game yesterday ,going very deep to bring the balls

E get some media wey I sabi ball pass ,Na you and L equippe opinion o baba

I don’t watch football with sentiments and I will boldly say you are capping ,maybe na the missed PK Dey vex you

And yet people that watches back of television said he had a bad game.

Shame on them.
Their favorite team lost but in their minds they won because Messi missed a penalty.

The goat was well handled

andrewbaba44:
Meanwhile if ter stegen was Madrid GK they would have lost by 3-0 at least

make una come carry Leno....like for like replacement.
We go even dash you El neny and Xhaka

De Jong, Garcia, Adama were dumped with you now

De Jong, Garcia, Adama were dumped with you now

You know the meaning of dump ?

Luuk de Jong is on loan

Eric García was purchased from mancity at age 20 ,a player who is just starting his career is being dumped ba ?

Adama traore dumped

It’s your Aubameyang that’s more like a dump but double standard no allow you mention am ,but he isn’t a dump ,he took a huge pay cut from a small club like arsenal to play for a big club like Barca

Man city no need Garcia, na why Dem dump him at your club, arsenal sef dump Auba on you.
Make una come carry Leno

jpmoriarti:
In my own view, he had a poor game. I am not even judging him from the PK miss.

He couldn't beat his man in most cases. Couldn't get a shot off. His passing range was also very poor, based on his standards. Couldn't drive the attack forward. I will give him a 5.

You are still expecting some 2015 ish from a man above 32?

For his age, he did well. It might be below the Messi standard, but abeg, he tried. For once, let him be carried since he has been carrying Barca from time immemorial

mostob:

He didn’t sign a new contract ,remember pep wanted him to sign a new contract but he wanted to leave because he won’t start there ,he is not even a starter here and he is only 20

Should I remind you of finished William and David Luiz then

Auba is for a short term deal ,he remains better than all your strikers for the past 10 years

Auba was having problem with arteta ,he took a huge pay cut to play at Barca ,something no one will do at a small club like arsenal ,he would easily stay at your club and earn 350k weekly doing nothing ,you should be thanking a big club like Barca for helping you ,and mind you we are both sharing his current salary despite the deal being permanent

Leno or ramsdale is not better than Neto

Garcia knew he can't bench any of city's defenders so man city kukuma dump him with you.
Auba was becoming too big so Barcelona actually came through when we needed somewhere to dump him. We even paid him off and terminated his contract. And arsenal is no more paying Auba..he has no deal with arsenal again.
Did I just hear you say Neto is better than Leno and Rammy?
Fear God small Andy

I agree with this. Let him be carried at least. Messi don overpay his dues. Barcelona are eternally grateful to him.

Lol. You don't have shame, brother. Imagine an Arsenal fan tryna claim another club issa dumpling whereas you guys are the kings of garbage. We can count on one hand how many dumps have been deposited on your ground and how many more will come.

Troll as much as you can, but mind the way you go about it.

Sure García can’t bench city defenders as they are better than him ,he can’t even bench Barca defenders also so there is nothing to be ashamed of ,he was purchased for a free transfer

Neto is better than ramsdale and Leno

You are still paying part of the salary for now after the pay off ,take note

Pride will be the downfall of arteta ,you guys won’t admit it ,only him Dey get problem with senior players

They will end up playing with bunch of kids and will go another 30 years without winning a league title or even coming close to the UCL final.

Calm down oga...I'm not a troll. Back to the argument...do you want us to go back to the day of Henry,Hleb and song? I know you wouldn't agree. Apart from maybe Willian and Cech(a temporary solution), oya name those players they dumped at arsenal. I repeat,if Ferran and Garcia were important to Pep, man city will never dump those guys with you. Make una come carry Xhaka and Elneny abeg...

bunch of kids
Oga, I'm not a troll, Barca is my second favorite club..what I and Andrew were exchanging here were ordinary banters.
But you trolling arsenal with the 'bunch of kid' statement is laughable.
Guess Gavi,Pedro,Nico,Jutgla,Abdi who have been making Barca squad recently are in their 30s abi
Most of us here were even praying for Ansu Fati to be fit ASAP...
Come on, don't make me laugh

Well, the Neto part is your opinion...
I think your statement about Garcia already corroborated my argument yet you didn't know
Arsenal already paid off Auba so I don't know how they are still paying his salary...

Arteta is not proud...most of you wouldn't understand...he just did what he had to do...

The Neto part is not just my opinion but reality

Neto have only played as a back up to better GK like Buffon before ter stegen
