tbh he is a bigger snake than ney
he is imo
he had all the love and support from the fans but
he betrayed us
and left for money imo
if he wanted to succeded why would he go to psg, go to utd, or somewhere
he was never gonna win anything with psg
and he regreted it 2 years later when he wanted to comeback
yeah but he can say no easily and stay
man we were so close to getting him in 2019
than bartomeu perfered grizzy over ney
50-50 on that
but then also on the pitch
he would have helped us
I remember when some source's were saying we would sign both grizzy and ney

and also, we had an injury crisis @grave glen
you see, when we have a fully fit squad (or nearly) we can compete with real madrid
wdym?
your saying barca is a small team 
We arelikely to finish 3rd in la liga
but ig we're underdogs now
but ppl still laugh when we draw or lose
Btw Rodrigo is being linked to barca, I think he's be a shit signing bc he's never been that guy to score an abundance of goals
he gets more assists than goals
ans he's a striker
Luuk de jong >>> Rodrigo
man, we can get 3rd place if our squad stays fit
and I think dembele will be benched or sent to the stands

he's a right winger, correct?

he can play both wings, and as a 9 too when needed
does he do well as a 9 tho?

not rlly, his best position is LW
but we got vini there so
he can play RW quite effectively too, thats where he has been deployed most of the time at real madrid
sacred sorrel
yea it's really sad, i like him but the competition for wingers in the national team is super tough so i don't think he'll be becoming a regular anytime soon

he could be a regular backup when mbappe comes, since he can play both wings.....and asensio is inconsistent so it would make sense to prefer rodrygo over him
asensio might also be looking for a way out

if he gets iced out, we're not a serious club anymore

better defender

I don't see why Xavi had to leave him out of the supercup squad either
no reason why mingueza makes it over Dest
