La liga part II

Look at your own post history. You have.

The burden of proof is on you my friend.

 

[Evilo]

Short memory AND lazy

fast and full of tricks however,decision making could be a concern moving forward.

Short memory AND lazy

Lol that's not making a judgement. Hence COULD BE. Neither actually.

Nothing you said is wrong... I'm just saying.

To each their own, but he's clearly demonstrated his quality. He did against Getafe. Of course he has a long way to go before he justifies the fee, but it looks like he's definitely capable. Assuming he's not this oft injured, Valverde's use of him is my biggest concern.

I think Dembele's struggles - such as they are - have more to do with the immense pressure of the situation rather than his ability purely to make the right decisions with the ball.

Umtiti is apparently only looking for 6 million a year net. My answer to that would be to offer him 7 million. Samu in training this week:

I would never rule that out, but I think it's not so much that. I think it's in part the way he's being fielded and simply a lack of playing time. Like I said above, the guy has started 3 matches and played in total in only 8 matches. That's nothing when he's only started 3 matches. There should really be almost no reaction to his play at this stage. I personally like a lot of what I've seen. Even against Getafe he put in a really nice cross that I still don't know how he was able to get past the defender. He also put in a nice through ball. If Dembele couldn't pass the ball as he can I wouldn't be so optimistic about him. Anyway, while I don't think it's so much about the pressure the club is circling the wagons and apparently keeping him out of the media eye.


Read today that the club is hiring a cook for Dembele to improve his diet and help reduce the risk of injuries. This did this for Messi back in the day and it work wonders.

 

[les Habs]

Copa Final date is bullshit BTW. Only in Spain.

 

[Savi]

Has there been a game this season in which Messi didn't hit a post? Unreal.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Man Valencia sucking today... only thing worse is the ref.

 

[Cassano]

Is Maxi Gomez any good or is he just like a tap-in merchant?

 

[Live in the Now]

He's like Falcao. Huge finisher who is a little better in the air. He isn't going to go around dribbling past players. Defensive work optional for now.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Nice to see espanyol being as dirty with Villarreal as they are with Barca.

Two very impressive players at Villarreal,Rodrigo who scored his first senior goal and this fella fornals.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Asensio!!

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Dammit. The last 20 have been all Betis.

 

[Power Man]

Algerian goal, so I'm not totally mad

You should be, we are playing like garbage.

 

[Power Man]

[Scandale du Jour]

[Scandale du Jour]

Asensio!!!!!

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Theo 10 yards behind his man

 

[Power Man]

Game over

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

If Betis' defence was Sunday league level they'd be fighting for Europe right now. Amazing going forward piss poor at defending.

 

[Evilo]

Saw highlights of Boudebouz humiliating Real players time and time again, especially Casemiro.
Guy's talent is crazy. He really made bad choices in his career moves.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Tuned in as soon as Leganes potted that in. What timing lol.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Madrid get a 50/50 call in the box while Leganes don't. Should've been a draw. Dame.
