Na you I find come this night. Make I go rest my back small as you nor disappoint. How Airbeere.

AirBere:
Kounde may actually be a fraud sha lol. The same Zaragoza that took him to a dance is who Eric Garcia is toying with. Time shall tell...

Solid 8/10 performance from Eric at RB!

Iqtest:
Lol, the same Suárez who said in an interview that Koeman told him over a phone call that he wasn’t part of his plans and had no future at the club 🤣.

Airbere is nowhere to be found. No agenda tonight.

All this one na Lamba.
I always find this talk funny when I see peeps saying Lamine doesn't also track back. That's a blatant lie.

Lamine tracks back and help defensively. The only time I'll say Yamal didn't help defensively in progressive games was this past few games where we clearly know he's been battling fitness issues. So I can't fault him when he's not 100%. The same can't be said for Rashford.

I can count more than 3 occasions in the second half where Yamal tracked back to help with the defense at dangerous transitions. There was one where he lost the ball but pursued the player well enough to disturb the player from giving the desired pass and we somehow retrieved the ball back from the opponent. Rashford wouldn't give you that and that's why some fans have issues with him despite his goals and assists. This is another reason why De Jong is always a culprit here.

Yamal also press well too upfront. Combine that with Raphinha's relentless press and runs we're solid.

Kilishihunter:
Yamal has scored in 3 straight games since breaking up with that Delilah, may they never cross parts again

Andrew and J.P wanted my head when i saw what was at stake.

She be wan wunjure our boy with excessive riding.

@emboldened

You mean the same Rashford who tracked back multiple times today and also won possession? At some point, when he was pushed off the ball, he got back up, and immediately won back possession for the team. In the second half, he also chased Zaragoza and successfully blocked the ball. He defended very well on multiple occasions.


Both players have their strengths and weaknesses but it's absolutely wrong to use double standards to judge them. What goes for R, must go for Y.


I can only imagine what people would have said if it was Rashford who missed that one-on-one towards the end of the match and not Lamine Yamal.

Lmao..... You sure say you dey follow Barca that time? 😂😂

Everyone knew that shit was politically motivated by Laporta to push him out cos his wages amidst the damages COVID wrecked on us.

Suarez was underperforming.

Remember when he scored against us,he made a celebration mocking Koeman i think.

Bimmarlykay:
Rashy try today Sha,i was shocked to see him tackle that second half,he lost possessions in between,but his overall workrate was ok by me.

Techu:
I am tired of EPL fans forcing Rashford on us.
Rashford is not good for Barca..

You guys like Rashford because he played for Man U, Man U is not Barca.

AirBere:
Suarez didn't leave because of performance even though he was falling off. Laporte wanted him gone because of his salary(financial wahala) and Koeman was just the fall guy. This was very well documented on goal.com/ESPN then.

Osebanjo:
Ive said it countless times that dude need s lot of rest. If na me be Flick I won’t bother him till 25th when we will be facing chel$hit. And still rest him a week or 2 more after that. It was obvious Kounde needed all the rest in this world

abduleez1:
I no even understand wetin dem dey drag sef.
It was very well known Suarez was pushed out due to salary and a way to reduce the power of the "Club de Amigos" cabals back then.

abduleez1:
Lol, how many times have Rashford tracked back and helped like he did today. So is it the few occasions he does that you'd use to judge his entire performance.
Bro, the rarity can't be the norm.

Yes Suarez was underperforming back then (even me dey swear for am back then) but it wasn't the main reason he was booted out. That was exactly the season COVID hit the world and we needed to eliminate much of those massive wages. So Suarez was the perfect victim. After all, he was waning.

Wasn't this the period where there was this talk of "Club De Amigos"? Where Messi's friends played shitty but was guaranteed a stay a t the club and playing regular football.

Laporta just used Koeman to push him out in an unceremonious manner since the last coaches didn't have the balls to do so.

COOL10:
You can clearly see the hunger to improve in Rashford. He's not used to this style of play but is adapting well in such a short time.


We keep praising Raphinha for his pressing abilities but people forget that Raphinha gained lots of experience from Marcelo Bielsa who's known for his hard press style especially when he was at Leeds. Raphinha is used to this system and that's why he's flourishing under Flick.

Iqtest:
I just did — I couldn’t find a single comment calling out those players during this game. All I saw was Marcus Rashford getting slandered, despite having a good first-half performance.

Bimmarlykay:
I hate the way Olmo shoots these days.

What happened to him?
