If Mbappé wins the Ballon d’Or today because he scored a ton of goals without winning a trophy, it’ll just show how badly Messi has been robbed throughout his career.
Especially in 2018, when he finished 5th despite scoring the most goals.
🚨 CENTRE-BACKS BARCELONA COULD HAVE SIGNED THIS SUMMER:
🇮🇹 Alessandro Bastoni — €70M
🇦🇷 Cristian Romero — €30-40M
🇫🇷 Castello Lukeba — €60M
🇭🇷 Luka Vušković — €54M
🇩🇪 Nico Schlotterbeck — €50M
🇵🇹 Gonçalo Inácio — €45M
Ronald Araujo left. Álvaro Cortés left. Barcelona brought in NOT A SINGLE centre-back to replace them.
A MASSIVE mistake by Deco and Barcelona's sporting management.
Just as we praise Deco when he gets things right, we must also hold him accountable when he gets things wrong.
Failing to strengthen the defence this summer was a serious failure in squad planning, and Barcelona are now paying the price.
Thank God Yamal won't win the Ballon d'Or this year.
First, he doesn't deserve it. Second, if he's already acting like this without winning one, imagine what his ego would look like after winning it in a season where he hasn't dominated the way he should.
Nobody wants this kid to succeed at Barcelona and become a club legend more than I do. I've always believed in his talent, and I genuinely want him to reach the very top. However, the treatment he's receiving nowadays isn't doing him any favors. At 19 years old, you simply cannot spend entire games walking around while the other 10 players do all the dirty work for you, especially when you're dropping stinkers in the biggest matches.
Diomande in El Clasico was a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Yes, he still has a lot to prove. Yes, he has achieved absolutely nothing compared to Yamal, and Yamal is 10 times more talented than him. But talent alone isn't enough. If you can't make the difference offensively in every game, then you have to contribute defensively. If the opposition is doing an excellent job shutting you down, then you need to show the same commitment when it's your turn to defend.
We cannot keep having Diomande and Cucurella, with an additional midfielder constantly doubling up on Yamal, while our own right-back is getting absolutely cooked in 2v1 situations because Yamal doesn't want to track back.
How is that fair to the rest of the team? This is on Flick too. Why should everyone else have to run twice as much to compensate for one player, especially when that player isn't even delivering offensively? This is a HUGE issue, and it has cost us dearly in our last two games and in every big game in the past 2 seasons. You cannot demand superstar treatment without accepting superstar responsibility.
I want Yamal to become a Barcelona legend, but that doesn't mean he should be immune to criticism. He's 19, not 35. There's absolutely no excuse for that lack of defensive effort, regardless of how talented he is.
That being said, it's still early in the season. We're still top of the league, and losing games now isn't the end of the world. In fact, I'd much rather see these problems exposed now so we have enough time to fix them before the biggest games of the season, especially the Champions League knockout rounds from March onwards.
However, the most important thing is that we actually LEARN from our mistakes, unlike the last two seasons, when we kept repeating the same shit over and over again without fixing the underlying problems.
Flick and the players need to wake up and take responsibility. Fix your shit! You have an entire week to prepare, analyze what went wrong, address these issues, and come back stronger.
I want to see another winning streak, the same hunger, intensity, and mentality that made us so difficult to beat at the beginning of the season. Get us out of this hole before it becomes something much worse.
There's still plenty of time to turn things around, but only if we stop making excuses and actually fix what's wrong.
Mbappe Balon d'Or would be a disgrace to the sport but I do hope Kane wins it tomorrow. Lamine has to be humbled one way or another. Forget about his performances, his body language has been sickening these past two games.
اكثر لقطة نرفزتني في مباراة امس ، تمريرة عادية لكانسيلو بعدها عرضية متقنة لرافينها و هات الثاني
لكن الغبي قرر يحاول يسدد و من سوء تسديدته راحت و كانّها عرضية ، اسوا قرار في المباراة كاملة
☎️ Tensión muy alta en el vestuario justo después de la derrota en el Clásico. Ejerciendo su rol de líder, Rodri habló con mucha firmeza ante la plantilla.
➡️ ⚠️Reprochó directamente la falta de compromiso defensivo de algunos y los enormes espacios concedidos a la espalda, dejando bien claro que no es con este tipo de actitud como el club ganará títulos. 🔵🔴
La actitud de ir trotando y no presionar, tiene que compensarse con no perdonar esto. Una como esa tuvo Messi hace 20 años y además de enchufarla, luego metió 2 más e hizo hat-trick.
Yo sabía que esto iba a pasar desde el momento que tuvo el alter ego de decir que lo de él a los 19 no lo ha conseguido nadie. Vendrán sus fans a llorar pero las hostias se las tiene que comer porque se las busca él en los micrófonos
Pongáis como os pongáis lo de hoy es una absoluta vergüenza.
Perdemos contra el PSG por priorizar el clásico y hoy juegas peor que el martes.
Obviamente para ganar la liga nos da, el resto de equipos son dantescos, pero para optar para algo más se necesita muchísimo más.
Si acabas de perder un clásico contra un Madrid NAUSEABUNDO y me sales con que calma que estamos en Octubre te mando a la mierda eh, quien no esté rabiando como un auténtico hijo de la gran puta no es culer.
Gerard Martín es un central con el nivel justo para primera división.
Que el Barcelona cuente con él en plantilla ya es un disparate. Que encima sea indiscutible directamente es negligente.
Es el peor central que recuerdo en el Camp Nou.
L’attitude de Yamal en grande partie c’est à cause de Flick
Il lui a fait croire qu’il est intouchable et qu’il peut faire ce qu’il veut
Il a littéralement peur de gronder ce petit merdeux
Yo he leído por acá la barbaridad de que Lamine es mejor que Messi a los 19 años.
Solo podría decirlo alguien que no vio jugar a Messi desde su inicio.
Están alejados por un universo.
