Well, Koeman prefers Pedri. Even Iliax is currently ahead of Puig.

For Chrst sake, I don't know what is special about this Puig. All the hype last season, I never saw anything special. But y'all keeps shouting Puig upandan.

Pedri completed over 100 passes yesterday. His link up play is almost on the level of Iniesta. He's so matured with the ball at his feet that you wonder if he's just only 18. Pedri do not give a pass for the sake of giving the pass. This is the reason Koeman uses him every single time.

Forget about Puig, Pedri is head and shoulder better than him.

I don’t know what you smoke, but stop smoking it

when did you start watching football that you’re comparing the legendary iniesta with pedri?

Most of the “100” were even sideways pass, as Messi still had to dropped deep for the upteempth to make something happen, and there pedri couldn’t complement him

I don't think he quoted you, though.

He has his opinion the same way you have yours.

You should not think you can force your opinion on others.

De Bruyne was rejected by Mou, yet he has proven that coaches can be wrong.

Yet, if people who have a different opinion on this matter air their opinion, you will most likely say since the coach uses Pedri, Pedri is better.

This is not an insult. It is just an eye opener.

Nobody can win this fight between Pedri and Puig.

Some promising players turned out bad and hopeless, while once rejected players became cornerstones.

It is also not new that coaches have preferences and that's not necessarily based on tactical awareness.

I have carefully crafted this message to avoid sentimentalism and invective.

Hehe

1. Athletico Win, Madrid Lose; This is not a W for us because Athletico extends their lead over us, thereby reducing our chances. We all hate Madrid but it's just one game. The best joy we could derive is just to troll them for 12 hours and that's it!

2. Madrid Win, Athletico Lose; Not also a W for us because Madrid draws closer to us and believe you me, i still see Madrid more as a title rival than Athletico because they have more character & experience than Athletico and they would have VAR on their side once the league is within touching distance for them.

3. A Draw; This for me, is the only scenerio which presents us with the W.
This results presents us with the unimaginable. It puts the title in our hands with 13 games to go because i swear the Athletico i know will stumble.
Who would have thought

Well that's if we do not stumble as well.

The best result for barce today will be a rmd win, because it’ll make the league widely open, barce is already above Madrid, and a win against atm anytime soon means barce will move top.


You’re just too bothered about rmd

Seriously speaking do you doubt my second point?



If Madrid, Barca and Athletico are neck to neck with 4 games to go, some other factor will come into play.

Trust me.

You mean, in such a situation, Madrid could go beast mode?

LOL.

I wanted to reply him, but that Iniesta part just made weak.

"His link up play is almost on the level of Iniesta"

A football fan actually said this? A barca fan for that matter.

grammarnazi12:

VAR could go into beast mode.

ddippset:


VAR could go into beast mode.

True that.

joviegghead:

He is still good. He just need good run of games without injuries.


I might not be a fan, but y'all need to learn to respect that guy

Did Barca fans respect dembele when he was facing injury hell

I said koeman now prefers iliax which is the sad truth but someone was saying I was throwing a jibe

I guess anyone who speaks the truth is also throwing a jibe

Our last 3 games should speak

andrewbaba44:

It wasn’t totally about his injuries though, I think it was his attitude also(gaming,late-coming e.t.c)

All the same, Dembele still has a lot to prove, Hazard maybe not so much(IMO)

Btw...I wish the both Madrid teams lose

Both Madrid teams loose

We can only be happy for a draw

As for me, any result this afternoon is a win.

Yeah, better both lose two points than one of them gains 3.

I can reply to any comment I want.

Note though that Pedri is no longer a promising player. He is now an established starter for Barcelona as long as Koeman is still the coach and that he continues to to perform. Puig on the other hand, is still a promising player. He has to prove himself to get picked.

Yes coaches have favorite players because they're the players he trusts the most.

This is football.

Some established starters have been found wanting and rejected, while some bench warmers have been returned to the first team.

I have not even said Pedri is not good, but you can't force your opinion on others!

I am not forcing my opinions down anyone's throat. You don't see me insulting anyone who disagreed with my stance. I am only presenting my argument. You can present yours too, If I find them interesting, I will share my thoughts on them too. This is a public forum.

I have heard you.

It must have slipped my mind. Lol.

SonOfAfonja:

Gbam!

There are only 3 possible outcomes!

A. Athletico 3 points, Madrid 0 point.
B. Athletico 0 point, Madrid 3 points.
C. Athletico 1 point, Madrid 1 point.


However we look at it, C is our most favourable outcome.

Nice..

Order your popcorn now then...

haymekus:



Man, you’re just being sentimental, I was never a big fan of hazard, but while he was in Chelsea, he

- won the epl,
- won the uel
- won the pfa
- scored some many fantastic goals
- won the silver ball in 2018 Wc
- conquered ligue 1 b4 coming to chelsea

I get he’s a Madrid player, but he’ll shit on ghostmann anyday and anytime

Lol, you dare compare Griezman's achievement with Hazard's? Not on your life bro.


Griezman with ATM


La Liga, UEL, Team's top scorer in all competition, 2x UCL finals.


With France

Euro winner, Euro runner up, 2016 Euro best player


He also has been nominated for the Ballom d'or title, a feat Hazard dreams of ever achieving.



I get that you don't like him, I don't too but do not compare him Hazard.


Never.

andrewbaba44:



Ansu Fati, Dembele, Trincao, Frenkie, Pedri, Ilaix, Puig, Mingueza, Dest, Araujo, and Eric Garcia. The New Kids On The Block. The future looks bright for Barcelona.

Have Cucurella been sold or he's still on loan??

Please I need someone to give me a list of all our loaned players.

I don’t get the argument,

It should be clear now who is better than who in Pedri Puig Moriba and pjanic

Hazard wey no sabi score goals like that self

Griezmann might not be playing what we want but dude is ahead of hazard in world football

andrewbaba44:

You can say that again.

What a goal from Suarez. Outside of his foot.

Class!!

Let's go.

Real Madrid should go and sit down.

Even though they are playing against the devil and his minions, I will still support the devil and his minions.

andrewbaba44:

Una don dey talk like this Epl and Madridiot fans...So a player should only be judged by goals eh?

Man, I hate Chelshit so much I don’t believe I’d be the one giving props to one of their players. Hazard that was once compared to Neymar? Do you want to seriously argue that Griezmann is in this category? Just because he won the World Cup?

Abeg, make we just forget am, Griezzy is good no doubt and he’s a Barca player so I get the bias but make we talk truth...

LAPPPPPPPOOORRRRRRTTTTTTTAAAAA.

No penalty to Real Madrid. I’m surprised...

The return of Laporta. I welcome this with open arms.
