Please leave busi alone..his trophy cabinet speaks for itself...been 1St choice since 2009 isn't beans...shud be respected....not subjectively castigated

Ter Stegen was meant to be our starter for the Liga...then He got injured at the beginning of last season,Bravo came on and impressed..They should just switch the roles next season because we can't lose Stegen.

homesteady:

Haaa! Did Busquets just make his debut this year?
Busquets has been an integral part of the squad since 2008/2009! It's now 8 years and you are still expecting a doom
Can you name one DMF that can put up a midfield masterclass like Busquets did against Arsenal in London?
What do we need a box to box DMF for? to leave our defense more exposed? You guys just don't appreciate Busquets discipline! We have a 'box to box' defender in Piqué and you still want a box to box DMF! I laugh in Catalan

Would take the sluggish biscuit over the worlds best ever DM ...coming from someone who had watched busi since 19...football ain't running round d pitch like a headless chicken...simply intelligence.just like d great Cruyff said...playing football isn't as. Hard as simple football

Ter Stegen needs more playing time ,we need him more than he need Barcelona. He should be our keeper for the league and Bravo be given Copa dey rey and Champions League for next season. He is so young to be allowed to leave.
ALL IZZ WELL

pelvicky:
it will be mad to loose ter stegen and he will also be mad to leave barca and join which club self...Liverpool??


he is barca future Gk

...so his slackness should be overlooked because it's one of the numerous perks of being a senior player in the squad?...

...Busi was an adept midfield maven in the days of yore, but recently he's not been up to par...I don't think I'm bending moral scuttles by suggesting methods that'd ensure the fissures in the squad get caulked before irreparable damage is done; and caulked with exigency too....



...he's been very crucial to the team, no doubt; but his recent lumbering performance demands that we import a new DMF that'd be hot on the heels of Busi; not necessarily to take his place - but to instigate Busi to up his game, and also to leave us with a variegated array of DMFs...

...there are many DMFs that play better than Busi currently - stop all these jingoism & be objective...

...that section I made mention of acquiring of a box-to-box midfielder was a slip on my part - When I said box-to-box midfielder, I really meant "defensive midfielder"...forgive me...

....we don't appreciate Busquet's discipline?...have you been watching our games as of late?...
...in your dictionary, perhaps discipline means playing dangerously in front of our own 18 yard box and holding on to the ball unnecessarily whilst leaving the defence prone to deadly counterattacks, especially when a simple pass would have sufficed...

Happy Easter to you too. Hope you enjoyed the day.

Happy Easter to you. Hope you had an awesome celebration?

Happy Easter bruv! I did have a great time. Just got back from the movies even.

I hope you had a splendid time yourself.

@homesteady you have given it to him clearly, if he needs more Jose Maria B. He can go to and wail. Busquet doesn't need a replacement but a helper. I don't even like the idea of buying, I think we can do better to promote one of the youth player that will have patience to fill void, serving as backup.

dmcdad:

Why do we have Samper?

Haaa! Na wa! is it because of our last match against Villareal that you people are yarning all these opata yarns about Busquets? Busquets that has been one of the most reliable players this season that Enrique had to even crown him as the best Midfielder in the world? This is serious!
So Busquets is the only person not allowed to have off games in the squad? Besides he didn't even have an off game, he was only invisible because almost throughout the game, the Villareal boys sat back in their box and he was positioned far away from the action area because he had to be ready to prevent counters!
The whole team went down to 3rd gear and Villareal equalized!



I saw in one of your previous posts suggesting Pogba and Vidal! Do you understand the need for positional discipline when it comes to playing as a single pivot DMF in a very attack minded team? Sigh!





You claim that you have been a barcelona fan even before many of us started watching cable TV, and you haven't gotten used to our players playing risky dangerous balls near or in the 18 box? Is it not supposed to be like a Barcelona trademark? How come you don't know? When other teams try it, people say they are copying barcelona!
Our defense is always prone to counterattack, we use a very highline defense with 2 attack-minded fullbacks.
I can't even believe someone is doubting Busquets ball holding capacity! If I'm watching our match in a viewing center and Busquets is with the ball in a tight corner, I would hear many people saying - 'ahh Busquets, he must find way pass' because they he has been in such situations many times and he left unhurt with the ball or he passed it out! he is not a machine, so sometimes he loses it!

Just for it. Any sane person calling for Busi's axe is either a hater or someone who don't understand football.

...when pandits are discussing and you have nothing meaningful to contribute rather than emote theories based on subjective conclusions, it's better to stay mute, and maybe bechance you'd learn something new...

...I still can't see the cognitive backing in using a player's previous achievements as a yardstick in weighing his current performance...that says a lot about the level of your intelligence...

darkenedrebel:


...his underperformance in the Villarreal's match was never highlighted, so where & when exactly did you see me mash it among the bullet points?...We aren't expressing concerns about Busi because we get spasmodic ripples of örgasm from doing so, but because that's what analytic minds do...it's only cules on nairaland that are blind to the truth about Busi & practically everything; whereas on YouTube & Reddit, the reverse is the case...

does his performances in the earliest stages of this season make him infallible?...Once again the validity of your footballing nous is in question....

...You are talking about positional discipline and yet you forget your beloved Busi prefers foolishly holding on to the ball in front of our own goal instead of laying a basic pass to his teammates - which in most cases result to him losing the ball....

...also irrelevant...

Barça are keeping tabs on Özil

Madrid have a 48-hour first refusal or will receive 33% of any transfer fee above 50 million euros. Any deal with Arsenal could include Turan, Munir or Sandro.
