Start one, Bench one, Sell one.

All in their prime, what's y'all choice?

This is very simple.

Start Suarez
Bench Etoo
Sell Villa

We have to win a trophy next season otherwise we're not making progress.

I see neither La Liga or UCL anytime soon.

tesppidd:
I like Dembele; and with a good run of games he could have drastically improved on his finishing.

But the injuries just wouldn't let him.!

Of what use is a player who would qualify you to the quarter finals and then miss the semi finals and finals through an injury?

It would be counter productive to bank on him or build a team around him.


Then his treachery! I've not seen this much treachery since Van Persie with Arsenal.

RVP was always injured and Arsene Wenger and Arsenal always stood by him and never gave up on him.

About the very first time he was able to stay fit for a long spell he then felt he was too good for Arsenal and ran off to Man U.

That's Dembele of today.

Dembele could have been Messi's successor if he managed to stay healthy.
His finishing would have fallen in place naturally.

Cut RVP some slack. At least he stay a lil bit and performed for arsenal. Arsenal was not just ready to win anything. And RVP was needed by Man u, and he needed Man U. He needed trophies.

You can't compare it to Dembele. Nigga is literally asking for more because he saw the ferran's deal. The club and fans were patient with the boy,despite giving us crumbs for a huge fee spent on him. And he's fighting us because of money while others are taking paycut.

I'll alway love his abilities, which is why I rate him as our best attacker on a good day. I want him to stay fit and play for barca. But, who the Bleep does he think he his?

ThierryJay:
I think Greizmann or Lenglet has to be the most criticized player on here in recent memory, I mean Lenglet was even physically attacked by fans. But the most ridiculed has to be Luuk de Jong who funnily has turned the negative perception around.

Bumtiti, Pique and even Valdes were regular objects of criticism with Barca.

Any player that fans have expectations on will be criticized if performance falls below expectation. It the way of football.

So Ferran should steel up and deliver on goals as expected.

The way people are exagerrating the level of criticism received by ferran is just funny.
If he receives he amount of insults like Griezmann or koeman did, he'll cry be crying for weeks.

Even Dembele is still collecting, ferran will collect. And any player who underperforms will. This isn't about how many games played or anything.
It's just football.

tesppidd:

After all, we're still rebuilding

too bad nobody is talking about eric garcia. forget miguenza, eric is d weakest link in dat defense. no agility, zero workrate , poor positioning. 4 me frenkie shld play centreback .

Some people here feel entitled and think a certain player must never be criticized because they adore that player!

I think that's hypocritical because these same people criticize other Barça players.

They always justify their criticism of players but cannot agree that others who criticize other players have their reasons as well.

It's a show!

People don't know that mbappe has the highest big game misses this season.
If you watch league one you will understand why we are too harsh on ferran.
Mpabbe will give you high blood pressure before managing to score one goal.

His misses won't, perhaps, affect PSG as much as Ferran's misses will Barca.

Aguero rejected an interview with a French newspaper because of the way they criticized Messi after the PSG game.
One of the top french media rated Lionel Messi 3/10
I was like what da fork!!!!!!

True, you are right because they have many people to cover for him.
Perhaps we shouldn't blame ferran a lot, other players needs to step up and score too, if other players had made lots of attempts at Goals, perhaps ferran would have been spared.

This is absolutely true.

Eric was okay yesterday, especially the second half.

An unpopular opinion.

Why can't we try to play Eric as a DM seeing how he loves to progress the ball and his knack for long balls. FDJ doesn't seem to have that capacity as it is and we need a DM ASAP.

The same was done to Kimmich

jpmoriarti:
I will see how vocal you will be when it relates to other underperforming player from now on.

I have been a very active member of this thread. I have come to see how your so-called criticisms have panned out. Grezimann, Coutinho, Dembele and other high profile flops have been here and you never descended on them the way you did yesterday.

The only Barcelona player I've NEVER criticised is Don Andreas Iniesta.

In case you don't know, I was the chief orchestrator of #PasstoMessi on this thread, and that was to spite Dembele, Coutinho and Griezmann.

People that are mad.

If you try to engage them now, they'll start shouting 'beer parlor analysis'.

Was Kimmich as terrible as Eric when he was a CB?

Mbappe has the highest big game misses ? A while mbappe then ferran should be cut some slack

Remember Mbappe costed psg a win against Bayern in the last 2 champions league finals

Psg should have won the champions league if not for mbappe misses and even Neymar also

Barca vs Napoli and PSG vs Napoli second leg is the redemption of ferran Torres and Lionel Messi.

Both players to score nothing less than two goals each.

Yes indeed.
Ferran should be cut some slack, i am glad the way the press are comforting him, it's nice of the press.
Mpabbe is one of the major reasons why Tuchel left PSG, he just couldn't deal with his ego and all his miss chances, mpappe is talented but he isn't a team player and coaches like tuchel are team coaches.
Believe me, if mbappe eventually leaves PSG next season, PSG will be more deadlier with Messi and Neymar plus the new players they will buy including their new coach.
I think they will buy zidane.

7 shots off target. Overrated player that is being protected. Xavi will still play him 90mins after woeful performance. We are not ready to roll with the big guys.

One thing is certain, this player is not clinical. Game after game, still same player missing chances and always acting as the star player of the team.Nigga you are no Messi. When to pass, he will shoot to the sky.

joviegghead:

He had his flaws and that included his inability to explore spaces until he met Pep. Only then did he become what we know now.

Bros... Go back and analyze well... with one question...

Why was he the only player threatening forward on goal?

Suarez prime - 58 goals, Eto's prime - 37goals - D.Villa's prime with Barca - 23 goals

Technical prowess - Suarez > Etoo > Villa

Dribble and explosiveness - Etoo > Suarez>Villa

Overall, it's a no brainer - Start prime Suarez, bench Eto'o and sell David f*cking Villa!

You can hate on him all you want, but there's no denying the fact that he's good and was simply unlucky

jpmoriarti:
Griezmann was a foool. He messed up and ridiculed Barca the previous season before he joined, in his infamous 'La Decision'. Most fans hated him already for that. He now joined but he never had the love of most fans including me. And then he never really adapted and was paid astronomical fees for ghosting in matches.

But Torres took a pay cut to join Barca and help the club come out of this rot. He could have stayed in City and probably have a shot at winning UCL this season, on even bigger salary and of course bonus. But he chose to join us at our lowest times to help rescue the club from abyss.

And yet, 6 game into his new life at the club, he is met with barrage of criticisms like he was the one that put us into this rot.

Barca fans should be thanking Torres for making the sacrifices to come

Thanks for saying this bro

Someone said he is a bench warmer at city ,someone that started city first 4 epl games before the injury .

They can pamper dembele who has done nothing for 4 years but can criticize Torres who hasn’t played 10
games

Ferran can only score if the goalpost is like this
