@NealGardner_ This performance doesn’t look one to complete remontada against Atleti
English
@omartrkk @NealGardner_ Look I don’t trust Araujo anymore but can you even blame me. If we were to go out to another Araujo mistake I wouldn’t be able to take it but if it’s from one of the others I could accept it. Also I think ur underrating Eric heavily he’s been very solid wherever we play him.
English
@generalofball @NealGardner_ Araujo did fine in the league game at RB , anyway having kounde at RB or Cancelo sure could work better, Martin is BELOW top club level let alone barca.. Eric is mid. pairing them both for your most important game ? Terrible idea
English
Here’s what I’m thinking for the second leg.
Neal 🇦🇺@NealGardner_
I’d go Cancelo RB/Balde LB for the second leg, at least if the plan is to start Rashford at LW.
English
@omartrkk @NealGardner_ Just can’t fuck around like that in a game this big. Kounde hasn’t played there for like 2 seasons and Araujo RB would handicap our best player. Can’t play Araujo RB if we want a yamal masterclass. Plus Gerard and Eric have been very solid.
English
@generalofball @NealGardner_ Araujo is better than both of them combined.. I get your doubts about his mental state, defensive ability? Araujo and Kounde CBs or Ararujo RB to deal with lookman and a Kounde/Eric Duo would work 100 times better
English
@omartrkk @NealGardner_ They are the only 2 realistic options. If we start Araujo we aren’t serious.
English
@NealGardner_ Dont forget we still need to avoid conceding, Eric and martin? you can already forget keeping a clean sheet…

@MadridUniversal Yamal yesterday played 10x better than Mbappe vs Bayern

@javier079137128 @Varca_Owner 3 cc, 1 bcc (2 when they update it), 8+ dribbles, while also being the only player on the team doing ANYTHING.
English
@Varca_Owner He didkt do shit just tjst nice dribble lo chances created bbc whst exatcly are you talking about
English
@itsworldclass I agree, but u have to note that olise is levels above the others compared to him, I think he’s comfortably the second best winger in the world.
English
Olise is yet another player who will be put into conversations they don't belong in because no one is even remotely close to Lamine Yamal.
The same thing happened to Lionel Messi.
Football in Europe is becoming completely cooked. I can't wait for it fall off a cliff
OB@CFC_OBED
Let’s be honest with ourselves,we’re treating Olise like some teenager, but he’s 24. Comparing him to Yamal only shows how remarkable the young man is, even at just 18. Yamal finished second in the Ballon d’Or, has won a league title, reached the Champions League semi-finals while carrying his team, and won the Euros with Spain. Yamal is not some Saka with nothing to show for his career. He is exceptional.olise isn’t better than him . In the champions league , Olise has scored 3 , assisted 6 - 9G/A ) Yamal has also scored 5 and assisted 4 ( 9G/A) . If you think PR is everything, why not run same PR for Amad Diallo ?

Do you think Barcelona’s #10 jersey is in good hands with Lamine Yamal? 🚨🎙️| Ronaldinho: "Without a doubt. He’s one of the best in the world, still very young, but he already does incredible things. It is very well taken care of."
English
@newreyreal2 His last 3 were robbed. He didn’t even play for 6 months for his last award and it wasn’t a World Cup year. It remains the biggest robbery in the history of history of awards. He wasn’t even top 30 in French league.
English
Messi realistically has never robbed a single ballon dor in his career and I can prove and explain every single one of them.

The Biggest Robbery In Football History.

🇵🇹🚨 Cristiano Ronaldo now stands on 967 career goals, placing the 1000-goal milestone within theoretical reach—potentially coinciding with the FIFA World Cup 2026 final:
•13 matches with Al Nassr — 22 ⚽
•World Cup group stage — 6 ⚽
•Round of 32 — 1 ⚽
•Round of 16 — 1 ⚽
•Quarter-finals — 1 ⚽
•Semi-finals — 1 ⚽
•Final — 1 ⚽
A poetic culmination, an unprecedented milestone unfolding on the grandest stage in football ✨

@ScottUtd_ @WGoat13 @sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu Wingers sure, that’s the only position where outside of the top 4 (yamal, vini, raphinha, olise) is a bit dead but we have up and comers like diomande, yildiz, mastuontuono who could potentially reach those heights.
English
@generalofball @WGoat13 @sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu Hearing names like Doku in top 5 shouts says enough LMAO
English
@ScottUtd_ @WGoat13 @sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu Ever thought that the top level might seem worse bc the overall quality is better? Also we have players like Mbappe (top 10oat), yamal (trajectory to be a top 5 player ever), Haaland (one of the best strikers ever), Pedri/Jude (All time level Cms), nuno mendes (top3 LB ever), etc
English
@generalofball @WGoat13 @sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu The overall quality has gotten better yes… but the top top level hasn’t it’s simple
Just look for youself the sports in a bad spot as of now has been for a few years at least
English
@ScottUtd_ @WGoat13 @sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu Wrong. I don’t know why people get the idea that football is the only sport ever that devolves. Everything from training to sports science has improved but for some odd reason people think players have regressed and it’s only due to nostalgia and the 2 aliens that led the sport.
English
@generalofball @WGoat13 @sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu Being top 5 today isn’t as special as it was 10 years ago - The quality today for wingers and players is worse
And Doku isn’t top 5 at all lmao
English
@WGoat13 @sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu Being a top 5 winger is nothing special. Jeremy Doku is a top 5 winger in the world as of right now probably and he’s not all that.
English
@sambrazy @B03GHB4L1 @DeanRigu Yeah this is just wrong. Robben/Ribery were top 5 wingers with Di Maria pretty much every year during their prime. Robben the better of the 2. Hazard gets thrown in the mix at the end of their careers but who else are we talking about? Neymar comes in late. Sanchez? Nani?
English
@itsworldclass Nonsense mate. Every other sport evolves over time but I’m supposed to believe that football is the sole exceptions where players get worse over time.
English
Y'all need to relax man.
The only players that are going to survive from this era, as of now, are Lamine, Kylian, and Erling.
Outside of that? Absolutely no player makes it into a top 100 footballer ever.
EVER? Do y'all know what sort of demons played this game?
jf1@jf1_szn
Active players I can see finishing their career inside top 100 ever (and their current rank): 🇫🇷 Kylian Mbappe (~Top 40) 🇪🇸 Lamine Yamal (~Top 40) 🇵🇹 Bruno Fernandes (~Top 150) 🇫🇷 Rayan Cherki (~Top 150) 🏴 Jude Bellingham (~Top 150) 🇧🇷 Endrick (Outside Top 200)
English
@ThP10and7 It’s a tight league race we can’t afford to “sell” the league game.
English
Sell the league game vs Atleti , it’s the only way this poorly coached side makes it past them in a two tie by finishing the game at the Camp Nou. There’s 0 chance we win all 3 games without Raphinha
FC Barcelona@FCBarcelona
𝗠𝗘𝗗𝗜𝗖𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 ❗️ Raphinha has a right hamstring injury, as confirmed by medical tests carried out by the Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) following the discomfort he experienced during the Brazil v France match in Boston on Thursday. The player is returning to Barcelona to begin the appropriate treatment. The estimated recovery time is five weeks.
