Luis Enrique is currently the best coach in the world for what he is doing at PSG, but there is no point disrespecting Hansi Flick who is doing okay for the support and backing he is getting at Barcelona. Lucho had his fair share of setbacks during his time as Barça coach. We should appreciate what Flick is doing, enjoy it while it lasts, and hope for better. #fyp #luisenrique #hansiflick #barcelona

@adebisidejoke Coaches are different. De La Fuente has his core set of players, he would rather start Grimaldo that use Expart as a LB. Expart is not even a LB, he plays better as a CM.
@Lawizzy470802 A simple google would have helped you.

Bro, see the pass from Lamine Yamal to Olmo.
If he did that against LaLiga teams they’d say LaLiga is trash and the players are looking at him.
He just did that against the EPL players
LOL.
I guess when he came on, you saw the difference?
It’s so funny you lot underrate Pedri’s physicality, did you see how he bullied Saka off the ball? Did you see how many balls he won?
Your definition of physicality is sliding tackles and gbau gbau, you can be physically smart, you don’t have to commit.
I’ll read Pedri’s stats again for people like you who have no idea.
In 24/25 season, Pedri had the most recoveries for any outfield player in the whole of La Liga, and was also number 1 when it came to passes into the final third.
This same season, he had the most ball recoveries in the whole of Europe's top 5 leagues, only Caicedo came close. Not physical😅
In 25/26, Pedri had the highest average ball recoveries in all of the league amongst u23 midfielders and 2nd overall in the midfield category, he also has a 90% tackle rate.
When you talk of covering grounds, in 24/25, he covered 385km, he was 6th overall in the league.
He moves like a jelly fish, so bro thinks Pedri isn’t physical, because he does not tackle like Casemiro 😭
He is very effective. He can tackle, he just doesn’t have to do it the way you want, and he can recover balls well. He’s just smart.
There are only few people in the world that are better than him when it comes to being press resistant. Ask Newcastle players, the Joelintons and Tonalis, oh fuck, they are not physical.
Let’s address why he was benched. De La Fuente is a very pragmatic coach, he’s not a coach that shy away from making changes.
Before I move on, Pedri played every game that won them the Euros before getting injured.
Started against Croatia (first game at the Euros), started against Italy, oh both teams ain’t physical. Rested against Albania as Spain had qualified.
He started against Georgia in the knockout phases, started against Germany before he got injured in that game. Those teams ain’t physical.
At the World Cup:
Pedri against Cape Verde - 90mins played
Pedri against Saudi - 70mins played
Pedri against Uruguay - 60mins played
Pedri against Austria - 89mins played
Pedri against Portugal - 85mins played
I assure you Mr Gemini, Pedri doesn’t face physical teams, a statement that a football head should never make.
De La Fuente played Fabian Ruiz and he did well, he kept Fabian Ruiz in the team because of that. This is absolutely normal. I love DLF for that, nobody is indispensable. If a player performs better, play him. After the first game they drew Cape Verde, poor game. Next game, Gavi went to the bench, Porro also came in, he made like 3 changes. I stan a coach like that.
Even after Pedri started coming on as a sub;
Pedri against Belgium - 35mins played
Pedri against France - 12mins played
Pedri against Argentina - 58mins played
Educate yourself before coming online to type these things. The day Fabian Ruiz stops performing, DLF will bench him.
By the way, let me know your thoughts when Pedri came on, you have the mic Mr physical🎤
