I saw this but didn't make sense of it until after watching our game again today.

Now, I'm seeing the same in this Betis game.

Let them do it for fouls too.. Maybe stop time altogether.

The only issue is that it will not indicate who last touched the ball. It’s a nice development sha.

Tebas na werey seh!! I really feel for the future of our league.

Tebas has actually prevented Spanish clubs from going under. before he started implementing these rules Spanish teams were Signing players they can't afford Atletico owed 10x what Glasgow Rangers had that put them in administration, Mallorca finished 5th but was kicked out of Europa League cuz of debts; Zaragoza is now a forgotten team but since he came with the rules there's been no team going under that I know of as it prevents them spending above their means through being unable to register players I think these assets being sold long term for short term cash injection is actually how Laliga teams would start running under. maybe not Barcelona but most of these midtable and lower teams would feel the squeeze soon

Na Betis way we day play next be this ooo.

If not, them go don beat many many

No wonder they are losing.

I'm not fond of Juan Foyth because he's a very limited fullback that doesn't fare well in 1v1 duels against fast wingers/forwards. That has been evident both for his National Team and his club.

He lost his starting spot for Argentina after Copa America 2019 because Scaloni found better all-round RBs like Molina and Montiel who can attack and defend better than Foyth.

Moving on to his club, Villareal, he had a disaster campaign in UCL against Bayern Munich and Liverpool in 4 matches. You could see how bad Foyth is against fast wingers in 1v1 duels and even stats can prove that. Against Bayern Munich in the 1st leg, he made 2 tackles and got dribbled past 5 times. In the 2nd leg against Bayern Munich, he made 3 tackles and got dribbled past 4 times also had 38% ground duel success.

Again in the UCL, against Liverpool in the 1st leg, he got bullied by the LW, Diaz as he got dribbled past 3 times and only made 2 tackles. In the 2nd leg against Liverpool, he made 0 tackles, got dribbled past 3 times and lost all of 6 ground duels. That's simply horrific considering in the 2nd leg Mane was playing and Foyth still got dribbled past with ease despite the fact that Mane has regressed so much in dribbling in the past 2 years.

To keep it simple, if Foyth joins Barcelona, we would STILL need to play Araujo as RB against Real Madrid or against TOP teams in UCL because Foyth is atrocious in 1v1 duels. What's even more hilarious is that Foyth had worse possession adjusted defensive and even offensive stats per 90 than Mingueza (21 90s vs 9.9 90s).

If Foyth can't even do his job as a fullback against top teams then what is the point of buying him for €20M-25M? Use him against bottom table teams? This is simply shocking. You either invest in the right player or you don't and Foyth is clearly is not the right player for Barcelona considering we are aiming for trophies.

xavi wants a defensive minded RB.
That explains the links to Azpi, Meunier, Foyth and while he plays Araujo at RB.

This will enable the team to move to a 3 man defence in-game.

Foyth is a better player than Dest in every way.

that explains why one was booed after losing out of UCL

€20-25m wetin?
If Alemany gets him below €40m, then whatever god or juju he's using has to be documented asap

If a defensive RB is what we seek, then we should just stick to Araujo playing there. I personally don't think we need two offensive fullbacks... One is good enough but then, we need someone that's comfortable driving the ball forward and can cross the ball efficiently.

Just watch how ineffective and unproven Araujo appeared when he tried to cross the ball in our last game, it only shows that it's not his forté.

And for Dest, I don't mind anyone benchig him. In fact, if you ask me, I'll go for that Frimpong guy in Leverkusen or Munier, with preference for the former over than latter.. Those two are good at both defending and offensive.

The pricing in that piece is wrong and me, I think he's not worth that amount. Both the 25 and 40m

Omo knowing how we attack feriously especially when we go a goal down I still think we need a RB with some attacking instinct, Tbh I'm caught up in two minds about foyth
You are defo right on him making us to switch to a 3 man defensive shape without the ball and he and Araujo/kounde will likely make a lively attacker see hell on our right side but then we'll still need somebody to bomb forward to take on anybody in his part, give incisive passes and one-twos, put in delicious crosses and still come back to defend, That specific RB character trait we've been missing since Dani
Left to me I feel we should manage Dest/Roberto as bad as they seem or get meunier or someone else on loan then go big for a legit RB next summer

You just almost literally said my mind while I was still typing bro
I like frimpong too, he's my next best feasible option currently after porro but leverkusen and their high prices though

we might go for Meunier since Villarreal is insisting on a price of 42m euros

The only way I'll have been fully okay with foyth's arrival is if we hadn't signed Kounde, Foyth is a good defender make no mistake about it, First noted him under pochettino at totenham when he used him at both CB then RB but looking at how our defence now looks robust and stronger with the new additions
I feel if we are going for both fullback options, Both must be adequately scouted, As far as I'm concerned this should also be Alba's last season as a starter, we need a younger more mobile one next year

Bro the guy (Foyth)man marked against Bayern in the UCL ..it was even from that match i started observing him.

I hope Xavi have it @ d back of his mind that this campaign is his 'season of reckoning'....if he like make e no buy RB, don't bench Alba & Busi @ d end we go count scores.

Jordi alba victims

If such happens to balde I fit swear for xavi oooo

FirstbornWds:

I don't think this foyth transfer go work oo

That guy is not an upgrade abeg

Xavi and Barca not make this mistake of bringing that Argentine fraud to Barca. Person way Molina don bench him life

Grimaldo is poor defensively and doesn't contribute much in attack like Alba. Gomez at Barca B never played as a LB. In fact, he only started playing LB last season or so. He's been playing as an AM/CM. He's more like Zinchenko. In La masia, there was also Moreno and Miranda. Though Miranda despite doing well at Betis was considered too slow. Miranda plays like Alonso, he's even as tall about 6ft1.

We also had Firpo Junior, Lucas Digne and I feel Digne was good enough.

Marc Cucu is what we really missed. A great player; very intelligent on the ball, great defensively, can cross, can attack, not afraid to tackle and very brave. We missed that.

Balde, well Balde is perfect and should play more this season.
