This is what they blame Pedri for?
Because he has to run like a dog for Rashford
𝔻𝕣𝕒𝕪@sammy__dray
The moment Rashford fixes this area of his game, he would go up several levels

@sammy__dray Lmao. Can someone get this guy off this team before he costs us more severely on Wednesday??????
English
@nuuzz99 @_Dissentient_ Lmao. You’re not worth my time if you can’t interpret data
You clearly can see the minutes column at the end of the table no? 😂
English
@Nwils_ @_Dissentient_ See how easy it is to judge players based on stats? Frenkie mogs every midfielder in the world when it comes to stats. All this crying just because I said no midfielder should be criticised for playing with bums like eric, casado and bernal in midfield.
English
The failures of the squad are mapped over a player again, hopefully we don't read such stuff about Lamine if Barca doesn't win a UCL in the next few seasons, it already happened with the 🐐.

Pedri definitely has lowest standards of our players. has been 6 years here and i cant recall a iconic el clasico or ucl ko game vs good opponent or euro/wc. People love to call out FDJ but pedri isnt any different for now. Atletico is a huge test since he loves to play them
English
@nuuzz99 @_Dissentient_ 2. Last season as well
Frenkie is the deepest lying midfielder when he plays. Why does he occupy that zone if he’s not gonna defend? Are you listening to yourself 😂😂

Based on 2024/25 La Liga per 90 stats (via FBref): Ball Recoveries: 1. Pedri (7.94), 2. Casado (5.03), 3. De Jong (4.49) Successful Tackles: 1. Casado (1.40), 2. Pedri (1.06), 3. De Jong (0.87) Def Contributions (Tkl+Int): 1. Casado (3.69), 2. Pedri (2.72), 3. De Jong (2.44) Interceptions: 1. Casado (1.23), 2. De Jong (0.94), 3. Pedri (0.81)
English
@Nwils_ @_Dissentient_ How is he the DM when Pedri got injured and Flick asked Casado and Eric to play with him? Your agenda is making no sense. He has the least defensive engagements? How? Enlighten me with official stats please. Please go on. It is actually fun to see biased cules panic.

Here you go from FBref aggregated per 90 (last 3 seasons all comps, Barca midfielders 1500+ total mins): Tackles: 1. Marc Casado 2. Gavi 3. Fermin Lopez Recoveries: 1. Gavi 2. Marc Casado 3. Pedri Interceptions: 1. Marc Casado 2. Gavi 3. Frenkie de Jong Frenkie ranks solid but shines more in progression/possession than raw disruption.
English
@nuuzz99 @_Dissentient_ Because he has the least defensive engagements per 90 for Barca midfielders and he’s the “DM”.
Because he also covers less ground for them. He’s also one of the ones who has to sit tight & “control” while Pedri does defensive and attacking shifts.
I can go on.
English
@Nwils_ @_Dissentient_ Why was this stuff never written for De Jong when he was being abused on this app 24/7 when this team lost to Chelsea with a Araujo red card? De Jong played with a much worse midfield in Pedri’s absence and this fanbase killed him when the team struggled to perform well.

So my Brothers in Christ, this is why we need a proper Centre Forward. A Box Predator of some sorts.
Not another Fermin Lopez type of “9”.
`@Pxxdwskiii
Lewandowski’s movement before his goal was top tier, one of the smartest strikers of all time.
English
My only concern is if we sign Bastoni, he needs to improve his box defending without limiting his carrying.
With a high volume ball carrying LCB, you often need a more defensive RB to balance the structure, which may not suit Lamine.
Basically, a more technical Koundé at RB.
Reshad Rahman@ReshadFCB
🚨 JUST IN: Bastoni is ‘crazy’ about signing for Barcelona, who are working to reach a full agreement on personal terms. Defender would like to speed things up so that he gets clarity + club feels they can pull off his signing for €55m/€60m. @martinezferran #Transfers 🇮🇹☎️
English
With Frenkie De Jong unavailable and now Marc Bernal also out, the burden on an already fatigued Pedri makes this Champions League clash even more challenging. A fully fit Gavi would have been the perfect solution, but he’s still not ready to handle 60 minutes. That likely means Eric García dropping into midfield alongside Pedri again, a setup that rarely provides the control and fluidity needed to dictate the game.
Personally, I’d go with a double pivot of Pedri and Dani Olmo, with Fermín López completing the midfield trio, while Robert Lewandowski leads the line.
Looking at how things are unfolding, I now appreciate the fact that the first leg is at Camp Nou. With the backing of our home crowd, getting at least a two-goal advantage before the return leg feels possible. And who knows, by then, Frenkie might be back and ready to make a difference.

🚨 JUST IN: Marc Bernal out for 10 days Araujo suffered an overload, expected to be available for Wednesday. @santiovalle #Transfers 🚑☑️

I don’t know if it’s my own bias, but I’m still not comfortable with Martin. I see his ceiling as a Lenglet-level player (which isn’t at all an insult btw).
A valuable squad player, but Cubarsi needs more.

@craigburley Do you know the rules as a pundit? How are you speaking on football without understanding the rules
English
The reversal of the red card for the Gerard Martin challenge in the AM v Barca game was disgraceful.
English
@excellente_6 You’re talking about angles he doesn’t take like anyone else on the team. In defense can do that.
His ball playing is equal to Cubarsi and greater than the rest of all Barca defensive players
English
@Nwils_ this what im talking about, in life there are Gerard martins and then there are the elite, let’s not get dumb.
English
Real people think Gerard martin is a consistently elite ball playing CB, the amount of angles he fails to make advantages of due to his slow turning radius and technical inability. I’ve always campaigned for him as a player that has something but he’s vastly overrated on here.
English
@_Dissentient_ Julian and Lookman rested full 90.
We couldn’t even give Roony 5 mins.
Idk how to feel about Tuesday. We toiled in this match and we need a cushion win on Tuesday
English
Big result this but it only highlights how magnanimous the two legs are going to be and how important is the task at hand mid week at the Camp Nou, have to make the home advantage count.
English
@vikkiemills @excellente_6 Are you watching him today. Dribbles are so brainless from him
English
@Nwils_ @excellente_6 I'm sorry rewatch the clip did you see any red shirt in the box except one and then the white shirt is around 4 or 5 so what kind of output were you expecting he crosses the ball and pray for an own goal ?????
English
Step overs???? Please tell me he spent the last 3 games learning how to stop running directly into people blindly. He was relatively manipulative on that ball in the last 10 minutes vs Rayo, let’s hope he had a course.

@ilyaklim4444 @NealGardner_ 60M on Roque, and looking to spend 30M on Rashford plus 70 on Bastoni doesn’t look like smart use of money.
Also, I can correlate our reliance on La Masia to current competitiveness.
I was here in time of Alcacer, Memphis, Kessie, Braithwaithe, etc < No signings is better
English
@Nwils_ @NealGardner_ Signing players when you lose players is a necessity. We have to rely on an 18 year old and a la masia graduate that played LB for our two center backs. What other top club in the world is forced to do something like this??
