He's shit
I don't want him. He's a pretty average pacebabby.
33 year old Alves >>>> Bellerin
>>68042653
What are WE going to do? Old man Alves is still better than any option they have at the moment
>>68042713
>What are WE going to do?
Idk ameribro, looks like WE will be sticking with Vidal and Sergi Roberto as cover. The RB market is beyond shit.
I still have faith that Vidal will come good though.
>I RUN FAST AMIGO
>>68042713
Samuel Umtiti
>>68042713
I would look for a solid defensive rb instead of a gotta go fast, fuck defense one
>>68042763
He's a CB/LB, definitely not a right back.
>>68042780
That wouldn't be too bad, going back to the Abidal/Alves model.
>>68042740
I hope so but I doubt Vidal can link up with Messi the same way, feels bad man

>going back to the Abidal/Alves model
that would be the idea, free rakitic a bit to go forward (even if he's not the best associating with messi) and leave the offense to jordi alba. Maybe look for someone better than rakitic to associate with messi. It would also balance messi not doing much in defense most of the times
Bellerin is a terrible player. Supposedly Arsenal want to sign Rodriguez as their LB too. That will be defensive suicide.
>>68042804
Umtiti is everything. He can play midifield, he can defend, he even can bang goalz. Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti Umtiti
>buying anyone from arsenal
>>68043432
Samuel stop shilling yourself
>>68042902
>That will be defensive suicide
>le Rodriguez can't defend maymay
His defending is actually the stronger part of his game. His attacking contribution gets overrated, because he takes set pieces, and can cross well. But his actual running forwards, and passing in attack aren't that great.
Is he any good at crossing, passing, defending, etc? Because just being fast can work in the EPL but i don't think it will in La Liga where most teams park the bus against Barca.

Thanks for the (You)s, lads
>>68044953
Congrats lad, sincerely I mean that. I just hope one day I can reach such peaks also. I guess the lesson is to never give up. Keep trying. No matter how many painful, lonely, suicidal years.
Now get the fuck off this board you normie piece of shit. Your account has expired here.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>68043854
No. No one would be a replacement to Iniesta. He is in his own League and plays differently than any other famous midfielder.
>>68045123
Think the Iniesta hype has gone a little overboard t.b.h.
Yes he is a talented player.
Yes he is very consistent and part of the core of the greatest teams of all time.
But people need to get real.
>Pace
Absolutely none. Slow as fuck. Good job he doesn't actually need to spring in most games because he'd be absolutely overrun
>Strength/Power
Absolutely none. See above. He plays to his strengths which is smart but he's a weakling just like Mata/Deco etc. Shoulder challenge? He's coming off second best every time. 50/50? He's fucked.
>Tackling
Very poor. Rarely wins the ball back. If he does win it back it's because of his high energy rate and his pressing which he does very well but then again anybody can run around like a headless chicken. Hardly an attribute. He is a very poor tackler even in situations where he should be winning the ball. He often makes challenges and just loses out because he's not balanced properly, or he is simply too weak.
>Dribbling
Okay, don't get me wrong, he's talented and can control the ball well with both feet. But it's nothing special. He's absolutely nowhere near the likes of Messi, Suarez, Neymar or even Xavi, Alves. Marginally better than Busquets. Overall pretty average 8/10 in terms of ball control.
>Shooting/Finishing
His goalscoring record speaks for itself. Fairly poor. Not his job maybe but still. Not world class level.
>Passing
This is his main area of expertise. Especially passing then moving to get the return pass, he's always looking, always aware. Definitely w world class passer. BUT long distance? Has he ever pulled off the sort of pass we'd see Scholes play 4-5 times a game? 40-80 yards? Sure he's done it before, but I don't think he's capable of that sort of range consistently. I've seen him fuck up quite a few times with long-balls trying to play the likes of Ibra/Neymar/Pedro in early and from deep. I'd say even Gerrard is better at it. Nowhere near Scholes/Pirlo level that's for sure.
>>68045281
nice manc pasta
>>68045314
Just wrote it just now.
Did I get something wrong in your opinion? Was just being honest. Been watching Barcelona quite a lot over the past 10 years or so and it's my honest opinion.
Top class? Yes.
World class? Yes.
Top 10 in the world in any position? Not a chance.
Top 10 player of the past 20 years in any position? Not even top 50.
I think it's a pretty lazy opinion to have that Iniesta is some sort of God, he's a player pundits love to wank over. So I guess it's difficult to go against the grain.
If we got anything above £30m for Bellerin it would be an absolute steal
>>68045281
The fuck you on about. His ball control is fucking amazing.
>>68045369
He's miles above Scholes m8
>>68045369
>alves, neymar and suarez have better ball control than iniesta
>an attacking midfielder should know how to tackle and
explains why you're so far behind with your archaic football model and why you'll never win anything.
>>68041523
>let's poach another one of arsenal's meme's of the month
when will farça learn?
>>68045466
>A footballer shouldn't know how to tackle
>A midfielder shouldn't know how to tackle
>A central midfielder who usually plays in a midfield 3 shouldn't know how to tackle
Okay then m8.
>>68045403
It's good, it's not particularly special.
>>68045427
Not even close. Nor is he better than Robson or Keane.
About on a par with peak Carrick. Edges peak Fletcher.
Miles better than Cleverley/Herrera though.
>>68045281
Worst post of the day award.
Congrats m8.
>>68041523
Why do people post shitty players?
>>68047734
>About on a par with peak Carrick. Edges peak Fletcher
you were doing so well trolling them up until this point...
>>68049176
meh, you're entitled to your opinion but that's what i believe
>>68045369

> talking shit about based iniesta
> talking outta your ass with ignorant ass points
5/10 for making me respond to bait but you need to go die in a fire. you know fuck all about football.
>>68045281
Not like he scored a world cup winning goal....after playing the whole damn game.
>>68045369
he's right you know
Noting is better than when Barca fans try to tell you that the whole team is world class even the players who arent Messi Suarez and Neymar.
Iniesta insnt as bad as when they say Busquets is elite
>>68045026
How did you ask her over your house? what did you approach her?
>>68045369
are you that addicted to (You)s my friend?
You've been doing this for a whole year at minimum.
>>68045281
What a fucking pointless post
You may aswell have described how he is shit at Cricket, Rugby and Darts as well because that would be equally relevant to the shit you just drivelled
>>68041523
>can't cross
>can't defend
>only passes sideways
>known choke artist with the rest of his fruity little club
>developed that shitty london britbong accent
wanting the worst defender in a defensively shit arsenal
fucking kek
>>68045281
prime iniesta was better than suarez at dribbling you stupid fuck. he was also pretty fast. and long passes?? where were you in 2011? stupid post of the day on /sp/
3/10 for making me reply
>>68042713
Aleix Vidal

They were all quality players before you ruined them
