Are you seriously calling me a Riqui hater? Me?

I was surely one of those that was asking for playing time last season when Koeman decided to be unfortunate.

I'm still a big fan of Ferran though

Ok Mac.

Ebukacute:
"Fati dey mbape level" to me that is a hype. Fati is good true true,but he never reach kylian level.

So explain how Mbappe is heads and sholders above Fati on the pitch..i will love to see you buttress my point.

andrewbaba44:
So we should sell ferran torres or bench him forever because he has lost form

At least some people saw where I said xavi should bench torres last week ,so you can tell I am not bias

Koeman doesn’t rate puig ,Xavi also doesn’t rate puig but you guys still thinks you know better ,that guy is not good as pedri or gavi so all this one wey you Dey talk Na you sabi ,una love the boy una no want talk truth ,Xavi and koeman sees him in training and not you guys ,I am glad puig is Spanish because if not they would have said he is not giving puig game time because he is not Spanish

Fati is not fully fit at least ,if he is fully fit he can bench ferran torres

Now ask yourself who can puig bench ? Pedri gavi nico are all better than him

I pray puig get go play the remaining games of the season .

This 70years old man...how can you lose a Bugatti you never owned .Ferran was never oustanding,he has never giving fans joy as Fati or Pedri.Dembele has been criticised occasionally/respectively till he picked a pattern assist and dribble plus pace, so what form are you talking about brov its only you and Xavi that masturbates over Ferrans mediocrity..even Liverpool fans yesterday were like this'd ferran sef na scam.

I will say this again ,the only bias in xavi selection was ferran torres ,he is a good player and he started well but as he lost form he deserves to be dropped ,so that was where xavi was bias

Dembele has been doing nonsense for years una no too complain but Na ferran torres matter una carry for head ,dembele cost more than twice of ferran Torres take note .

The rest selection are perfect abeg ,I don’t see why any reasonable person expect puig to be playing games where we have better players like Gavi and Nico ,busquets is suspended and we will have a short midfield next game so I pray xavi starts him

You can’t say koeman hates piug and still bring that energy to xavi ,same xavi that we all say prefers Spanish players , it’s shamelessness saying xavi don’t like puig

Puig should better go on loan next season because with kessie arrival Na only God know Wetin go happen ,we have sold players with so many promises than puig and we never die ,even nico self shirt no too sure for am next season

If I can move on from a very fine player like cucurella then I can move on from any of our current young stars not named pedri fati gavi araujo .

Happy Sunday to you all

Bimmarlykay:
Pedri has leapfrogged Puig,not Gavi.Stubbornness is the only thing Gavi has over Puig and maybe dribbling. Am also not making comparison you are, am only telling you guys not to criticise Puig for the same reason you not doing to Ferran...you keep saying Ferry lost form gosh you dey watch ball? ok picture Bruno how he played for Man u, compare it with his current plays...that is dropping form,you see Liverpool's Diaz he is now been feared by many, he even scored yesterday if he eventually forgets those stuffs that's dropping form lets not start with Rashford so how has Ferran wowed us?that's how he plays he dropped no form..if you say Barca pattern is not corresponding with his type of play (Coutinho)its understandable since he played well in City/Spain...what we expected from City's Ferran wasn't what we got and you here talking about dropped form was he ever spectacular?

monerozi5590:
Devvy4 no kill me for laugh oh!

Barcelona fans will surely be pain seeing you post. Keep them crying bro. We love it. Hahahaha

andrewbaba44:
He can’t get game time ahead of Gavi, they will
Overrun him in that midfield

jpmoriarti:
Our RW are typically occupied by Adama and Dembele. Ferran plays more on the LW or CF. He will have to compete with Ansu on that LW and he easily comes second best. He shoots wildly when presented with a delightful chance. Ansu will bury 80% of the chances Ferran Torres has squandered. This is the reason he has lots of haters here.

Whereas, in the CF position, he is better than Auba in link up play but Auba has the more natural instinct of a poacher which is more needed in that position, which is why Auba has excelled despite not being the best technical player on the pitch.

So right now, Ferran Torres has to prove himself all over again to deserve any berth on the starting lineup provided our young prince continues to gain consistency away from treatment table.

FirstbornWds:
Physicality is the only thing Gavi has above Riqui. The latter has a better vision to become an advanced midfielder except for pressing play, but sadly Barcelona system doesn't accommodate that.

Nonetheless, I think with Jong playing as a holding midfielder in the next game, Xavi might just have to trust Riqui to be the midfielder to break the opposition press and make progressive passes.

But if I should be truthful, I think Riqui needs to bulk up. I mean, he's just too lean to match the physicality of the modern game.

andrewbaba44:
The last Part is why I said they will Over run our midfield with him there

Look at me still thinking puig is 18 with the way he looks ,just went to confirm that dude will be 23 this august

FirstbornWds:
Yes, he's actually 23. Imagine the way William (from Betis yesterday) shoved him like he was nothing.

FirstbornWds:
Yeah, I hope he gets the game time. You'd see his movements with progressive passes and even though he gives it up to the opposition, it's easy to see that he dares to try.

Concerning your first question, some of us here still think Riqui should be getting game time ahead of Gavi, at least.

Kilishihunter:
If Stuttgart relegate borna Sosa will be available for 25m (Which I doubt Laporta will pay)
If Leeds relegate Raphinha will be available for 25m too (Though there's still competition even though we've agreed personal terms
If atletico don't go to the UCL (which I very highly doubt) Laporta might make a play for Felix again, If.. If.. If..
Imagine hoping for teams to go down to strengthen your own side, Sadly business is business

jpmoriarti:
You have to be more imaginative and innovative with your businesses when you don't have enough cash to throw around.

However, if we can pick up Raphinha from a drowning Leeds United, it is going to be a fantastic business.. It will bloster our attack which is set to lose the likes of Adama, Luuk de Jong and Braithwaite. Also an alternative a left-footed to Dembele.

I dont know about this Borna Sosa. We're been linked more with Javi Galan. We play Celta on Tuesday, so it is a good chance to see exactly what we are going for.

homesteady:
I thought Laporta did a press conference where he was saying that Barcelona now has money and will compete in the transfer market?

What now happened? Why is the club now acting like paupers again?

OhBritannia:
I thought people said that Barcelona has already qualified?
Looking at the table, i don't think so.
We need to at least win one more game before we can secure a place in the champions league.

Kilishihunter:
We've qualified in that At worst we can at least finish 4th, The main Koko now is staying in 2nd cause of the newly invented Spanish superCopa, If we finish there we'll have another shot at that Trophy next season and them sheiks would pay Barca €9m

OhBritannia:
Okay i understand but 4th position in the league still has to play qualifiers right?
