another great save by Pena on Mbappe

[Vesper 30,164]

Lucas V going thug

[Vesper 30,164]

nil 4

FT

what a hammering

could have easily been nil 6

[gdlk 286]

We should have tried all out for Hansi Flik!! 

[Vesper 30,164]

Real has a big problem, one I have been on since before Mbappe even went there 

Mbappe is having trouble as a CF with them, probably more so than he he was as a CF at PSG

and no way will they shift him to LW, as Vini Jr is there

[gdlk 286]

Real problem is that they dont have creative midfielders... Only physical defended oriented ones..

simple solution

sell us Vini Jr

OR

sell us Mbappe

and then they buy Håland

win win win

gets Håland out of the EPL

blocks Barca from buying him

and we get one of the 3 best players on the planet

yep

Modric is now limited due to be 39yo and even slower (he never was a pace master)

Bellingham is in a slump overall, and is not super creative anyway

Valverde is a superb CMF, the best in the world, but he is not all that creative (it's his only remote weakness)

Diaz is not the answer IMHO

Ceballos is rubbish

Camavinga is also not creative

and Tchou is a DMF

 

they so miss Kroos, who was the glue and also a superb passer

[Vesper 30,164]

Barca have (creative MFers)

Gavi 
Pedri 
Frenkie de Jong  (to a point, he is a bit like a poor man's Kroos)
Fermín López 
Dani Olmo   

[Vesper 30,164]

Transfermarkt surely HAS to lower Bellingham's €180m valuation if his slump continues

[Vesper 30,164]

and hats off to Raphinha

stepped up under huge pressure and finally is now world class

every bit (actually far better atm) the player we were so hot to buy a while back

ESPN saying exactly this now

[Vesper 30,164]

the only La Liga game Barca has dropped points in was when they put out a side with only 4 starters and a tonne of youth/reserves

[NikkiCFC 8,317]

Football is in problem if Vini, Mbappe and Jude are apparently 3 best players. All look shit.

Bells is not a top 3 player IMHO, for sure not at the moment

and Mbappe and Vini Jr look more and more like they are incompatible

also, Mbappe is likely not right in the head atm, as he is accused of rape here in Stockholm (I think he perhaps is being set up, Sweden has the widest defintion rape laws in the EU, and so many get falsely accused, ask Julian Assange).

Exactly, I always questioned how Real Madrid would have a balanced side without a player like Kroos in midfield. 

The French duo and Valverde are great at most things but definitely not creativity.

Clownlake need  look to Barcelona   how to build a team of  young players, but not mainly with young players, but also with worldclass experience around them to learn from  and manager with experience also . Their young players deliver results immediately while our players "need time"

they only have 2 outfield players over 28yo

and only 4 more over 25yo
