What’s this you want to bring up bayi

joviegghead:
Just came online to see some individuals down playing Puig. Lemme say this first: I am delighted we have pedri.

But how idiotic or blind can one be to say there's nothing special in Puig. This issue of pedri and Puig is nothing. They're totally different. But making disparaging remarks of Puig is just the height of stupidity.

This boy has been a bright spark since last season. The whole barca community saw hope with Puig. His creativity, vision, urgency and movement. Pure Talent!

Koeman wanted Gigi in and wanted Puig and Alena out for no cause to reduce competition for his man. He's deliberately starving the boy games.

Even his short time against Juve made people ask why such a kid was been wasted. Its counterintuitive. I know he'll have his time. And y'all bashing him will eat your words.

That's if you've ever watched him play.

Puig is good

But did you see that slowpoke that said pedri is overrated?

No pedri dissing will be accepted here

I might be wrong to compare both players but why can’t some morons just praise pedri for once ?

A mad man here even prefer koeman to be sacked all in the name that he wanna watch puig play as if na iniesta

Pedri is not overrated. I have seen him at las Palmas. For a teenager to have the highest no of minutes player for his club shows how good he was. He's has huge playing experience .. But barca will give him great things.

No one should diss Pedri or puig. If you like one, no p. But down playing one to praise the other is wrong.

Andrew, your papa na mad man.

Not warming yourself to your boss leaves a big question mark. What is he doing wrong ? A quiet introspection is extremely important because his career is in danger here.

Sometimes, talent alone may not be enough to succeed in career.

Screw all that. Once election is done, is freehanded shits are over. I'm sure officials will intervene with how he runs the squad.

It is a bad thing if officials intervene on how the squad is run. A coach should have full control of the management of the squad. We dont want a sitting duck as a coach. Zidane expressly demanded this autonomy and he currently enjoys it.

Besides, the coach has again reiterated the need for Puig to leave on loan and establish himself elsewhere. His career needs this. The coach has no faith in him. He will rot in the bench if he remains maybe feeding off the scraps from less important games like Copa Del Rey.

The coach probably prefers the new entrant Ilaix Moriba . So it is obvious the coach is not afraid of trusting young talents. It is obvious the issue is with Puig.

I do not like players who revolt against Management. Talent means nothing to me if your character is brought to question.
Recall I led a similar campaign against Messi when he was at daggers drawn with the Board. Though I am glad Bartomeu and his drama is now a thing of the past, but I cannot fully absolve Messi of any blame in all that saga.

2 Penalties.

2 Penalties out of 9 La Liga goals.

Hmmn.

joviegghead:

They're not on normal, these girls.

To have nearly 6 goals per game.

Just 2 goals conceded

Omo we need to test them.for something. Chai see Goal tally.
Shey na Super Falcons Vs Rest of Africa back then ni....

Dest
Dembele
Puig
Pedri
Fati
Araujo
De Jong
Trincao

The future is right here with us homie. Let's give Koeman some credit in this regard.

The issue is with koeman.

And it's not a bad thing if officials intervene. Some Managers can be plain stupid and wicked.
Don't ever bring Zidane to topics concerning Koeman. Zidane can demand that because he's a Top manager. Same way Guardiola asks for autonomy. They command such respect. Koeman is not even close to their level.

Lastly, Puig has a strong stand at barca. You forget that. Koeman just wants to be stubborn.

If things still continues like this for Puig after elections, then he should leave. It's not the first time incredible talents have left the club and we watched in regrets as they thrived.

That Election is what I'm waiting for... Cos this shitman is trying to wreck players careers just to protect his favourites. Wetin Pjanic dey do for bench these days, even Trincao he loves using at start of season isn't supposed to be in bench for a stretch now....after all it's 5 subs. If Fati comes back that guy fit no get any chance at redemption again. Also his practice of subbing off Dest for Mingueza is leaving a lot to be desired.

I just purposely avoided that Puig vs Pedri argument... Cos they're both great... But surely I won't hide my bias that one is better than the other attack wise. I've watched both.

You're complaining for Pjanic and Trincao.

If Roberto comes back, Dest won't enjoy like he's doing now.
As for the Puig VS Pedri debate, it's pointless. They both play for same team and it will be a delight to see them wreak havoc on opponents together.

I'm not really complaining, I don't just like his decisions. I don't even like that Trincao the slightest.

That's assured, when Roberto comes back Dest starts bench warming. The Jazz wey Roberto dey use for coaches still dey confound me till this day. Last season he was my most hated player. in fact for the last 2/3 seasons I don hate that guy. I no dey reason him matter again cos he's going nowhere anytime soon. I'm even grateful for the injury which kept him out for a long period of time .

Koeman will not give us that joy of seeing Pedri, Puig, De Jong play in midfield at same time. Same way it's almost impossible for Dembele and Fati to be on pitch at the same time.

It breaks my heart to know that your second statement is true

joviegghead:

Credit for what exactly??

For playing them.

Buying Dest
Giving Fati good playing time
Buying Pedri
Buying Trincao
Keeping faith with Dembele
Choosing Araujo from team B
Playing De Jong over Busi and Pjanic


We can only give him the stick for not giving Puig a chance.

I quite agree that Dest wouldn't have gotten his chance without injury to Roberto but Roberto cannot displace Dest anymore.

Sometimes it takes such emergencies to have younger players come up.

The club bought Dest and Pedri and Trincao. Pedri and Trincao and Mathues were done deals before Koeman.

Fati is our only natural RW. The moment barca started sealing his future with things like 500 million release clause. Koeman knew he was untouchable and had to be played.


Dembele? Faith in Dembele? Nah. Dembele was to be sold. Koeman even expected his sale. Hence, he benched him a lot. He wasn't really in koeman's plans.
Injuries to Fati and coutinho meant Dembele was to be used. And his performances forced koeman's hand.

Araujo and Mingueza?? When pique and Lebglet were available Koeman benched him consistently despite his talent.

Koeman isn't playing De Jong over Busquets. He's playing them together. Busquets is an established barca captain. De Jong one of the clubs biggest signing and koeman's country man. Hence, he's gotta play. Even when he was playing poor regularly. We thank God he's back to good form.

Koeman didn't do shit. Injuries made him use some of the players you mentioned

I know say it can be tough to give Koeman any credit whatsoever for what we have been through but make we give am small na just small.

1. He stobornly continued to stick with Pedri despite earlier criticism.
2. Fati didn't have a good run of games last season, but Koeman used him consistently.
3. The club bought Dest but Koeman was a long time admirer and he sanctioned the deal.
4. He picked Araujo over Todibo after Pique injury and that has proved to be a good decision.

I am not scoring Koeman good so far but make we give am small credit.
If we scrutinize other coaches like this man dem no go get Pass mark at all.

What am saying; we have a lot of young players playing well under the man's system. Let's give him small credit and forget every single detail.

True....you just put it well and succinctly.

@tespidd I dey wonder how you go say Koeman buy Trincao and Pedri. People way Barca don buy even before end of last season sef.

I totally agree with all your other points... I ain't grateful to Koeman for doing the expected. Playing the mentioned young players was more of expediency rather than giving them opportunity to thrive. Asides Araujo and Mingueza which other CB you had? Umtiti?? Don't make me laugh.

Fati was assured of playing whether Koeman likes it or not, same as Dembele. As long as Dembele refuses to move out the club and is available/ fit he will surely play. His injuries are the only reason the board are not too flowery with him. The price tag alone and talent and quality while fit is enough for him to play significantly as long as Transfer window is closed.

Even annoying and stubborn Valverde that didn't like young players one bit was forced to play Fati. So who's Koeman not to use him, na him grave him go just dey dig, not after having problems with Messi. You wan come dey bench players wey him enjoy playing with(dey even are top performers)..... I laff.

Preach bro....... even MB no for see game time if not for Ansu and Coutinho injuries Baba even played De jong at CB sometimes ignoring Araujo. My prayer is just for us to win this Granada game before we start supercoppa .

1. He stuck with Pedri stubbornly at the expense of another quality Gem. Though it's yielding results.

2. Fati couldn't have long and extended run of games cos Setien was a chicken and also the fact of avoiding Fati to burn out due to young age. Same problems Dembele is/was facing cos of underdeveloped muscles, also the fact that they're wingers and speedsters. Risk of injury is higher.

3. I agree with you on Dest.

4. Who else would he have picked for Pique/Lenglet's replacement incase of injuries or suspensions? The options are only Araujo and Mingueza. No one else.... except you fancy De Jong and Busquets as good alternatives.

He didn't ask for them Pedri and Trincao to be bought alright, but he saw their potentials from day one and stubbornly stuck with them even when you and me were complaining .

Even joveigg was complaining about Koeman playing Pedri before.

I know that Koeman could do no right. But if na Pep or Mourihnho we wouldn't talk about he did not buy them or he was forced to use them,

We would say they created a system for the players to thrive.

Koeman has no one to blame anyway for bringing this level of scrutiny upon himself anyway.

I don't want to be the one here trying to market the devil.

But the buck stops on Koeman's table.

We mush bash him for our abysmal performance this season.

If his system has favoured a couple of youngsters we must give him the glory regardless of the circumstances of him featuring them.

Unpopular opinion.
