So Barca wants to sign Griezmann. They are literally buying their way to titles these days. The once revered la masia is dead. Neymar, Suarez, Coutinho, Dembele, Semedo to name a few are some of the players that Barça has spent millions on in recent years.

Denis Suarez that has talent lacks consistency (the same denis suarez that has gone on loan tire o), Sometimes Talents isn't enough, I watched EV's interview before the Villarreal game where he said Dembele has to work more for the team and more hardworking in training. So its not really about promoting, The question is do they fit the bill?, Bojan, Tello, Cuenca, Jefrren, Sandro, Traore, Oriol were all promoted, where are they now? thats just to name a few o, i can list 15 that has been promoted since 2008 and all of them cast.

I always talk about D. Suarez because I'm confident of his abilities.. The guy is a wonderful player.
.

But you can't give a player 5 mins per month and expect the player to perform whenever.. You build up the player through consistency and trust. Same goes for other flops who have come through the academy..

haymekus:



Valvershit is the worst coach any upcoming footballer can player for, I fear for alena and arthur

tesppidd:
but then how do you build consistency?

by giving the player a good run of games,

not play today, bench tomorrow,

dennis suarez needs to play 15 straight games to build that consistency and self confidence.

if suarez was not given a level of patience he would not have been allowed to play up to week 20.

dennis Suarez has shown his skill and talent.

i think he really needs a good spell of games.

Times have changed..Roberto is way more talented but Roberto didn't start getting game time until he was 25.. Even at that he's playing Right Back..All I'm saying is Patience in a big Club is very vital. The pressure coaches face especially in barca, the pressure to win titles every season, so Coaches tend to use tested and trusted players and so you need to be very exceptional and extraordinarily good in order to get a good running.. Denis is good but he gats get patience are

Upnepaa:
Grizemann's addition is welcomed, Together with messi, Suarez,Coutinho and Dembele that will be a massive massive squad depth.


But Cules Our midfield is the area that requires a lot of additions, Iniesta is going and up till now we haven't replaced Xavi. Who do you think we should buy



I will prefer we bring back Thiago or we sign Ericksen( even though that will be extremely difficult) ,then let Coutinho inherits Iniesta's LMC together with the acquisition of Authur and the influence of Sergio Busquet from the back our Midfield will be more than Ok. We don't really have much problem at the back other than to offload Digne And sign a quality back up for the LB position or promote Miranda from Barca b.

philfearon:

Digne is a quality back up. All of you saying he should be sold really need to stop it!
How many quality players will be willing to stay on the bench?

Upnepaa:


No, i don't concur Digne is an average player, no pace and his decision making is poor in short, he is not a barca standard player. I will rather we use Barca b players if no quality player will come.

Sommyroy10:
well said. But do you support Gomes being selected ahead of Suarez despite difference in performance and game time?

jonsnow92:
Gomes is a monkey. He probably does so well in training and flatters to deceive in training but once he gets to the stadium, fear go catch am...He's had his chance, He needs to go before he takes us to the sunken place like Morata is doing to Chelsea.

Sommyroy10:
lol. You are right. At a point, Juventus and some premier league Giants were after him. I was like, are there some things both their scouts and our coach were seeing that I was probably missing. I think I have watched Barca match just to see Gomes play and still nothing, except from his timing in last seasons classico ( build up to Messi's goal). Maybe he is suited for counter attacking football. Not watched that much of him in Portugal,

ElDeeVee:


@Sebod, you remember this post

Mr Fraud Guardiola may be the second casualty in the EPL after Francesco Guidolin.

philfearon:

The dude is trying his best. The match against Villarreal should tell you that if recent!

sebod:



Where this man dey self?

jonsnow92:
Behind the stage scenes :

Piqué to Paulinho during HT - "Paulo, did you see Philippe getting nutmegged or not?"


Pique is just never serious.

Emasel:


Man Utd is the only top side Pep has beaten this season. His woes just started. Him go know say EPL no be La Liga or Bundesliga

Upnepaa:
The match against Villarreal was probably his best in a barca jersey,most of his performances have been below par.... but i guess ur admiration for him has overshadowed Ur objectivity.

Upnepaa:
Messi's Love for Suarez could cause a huge problem for barca in future because Suarez has been declining since about two since years ago and by the time barca try to offload him or bench him, Our Oga nla might kick against it and he has always been the numero uno and the de facto coach and he will have the final say....... The tin tire me o, Because it might turn out to be a pain in the azz for us just like Benzema is turning for Madrid due to Ronaldo's insistence. I pray Grizemann hits the ground running immediately and comes with an undeniable form that even messi can't resist.


Mind you, Messi's hard tackle against Ramos in the Clasico was a retaliation for his dear friend, Suarez. chai

philfearon:

Suarez's problem is that we don't have a replacement yet bro.
Messi loved Fabregas and Neymar too... They got sold!
However, there is no good club that will sell a player who guarantees at least 30+ goals+assists in a season when they don't have a like to like replacement!!!

Eruditor:


Let me say something funny;

United need to win their last game of the season to get more points than that City team which people said failed.

That City team scored more goals than this United team which everyone claims has improved.

Liverpool, Tottemham and Chelsea will have less points than that same City team that were "embarassed" last season.

Pep is a victim of his own success. In fact, when he wins next season with less points than the 100 he will garner this season, they will say he failed.

ClintonNzedimma:

despite Suarez decline, he is still one of the best strikers in the world, top 4 to be precise
