Well since then him and Messi have clashed, most notably during an international friendly between Argentina and Brazil. Also, Rugani is total and utter tripe. Doesn’t take a genius to see he has 0 talent. Morata was re-acquired by Madrid at 24 despite having a poor goal record here and then went...

Exactly. Messi has played with Arthur. These guys are sharing their opinions as spectators. Even then, Giovinco was exceptionally talented and mainly failed due to his mental shortcomings.

Most Barca fans I've seen online were saying he was their best performing midfielder around the period before the lockdown commenced meaning he's had plenty of great games for them so I think saying he's performed way below expectations is a gross overstatement. He came in as a relatively...

Since then he’s been a waste of talent? Plenty of Barca fans were calling him their best midfielder before the lockdown. The guy’s 23 for heavens sake yet you’re acting like he’s been playing abysmally for years or something. He’s barely kicked on since the re-start so I have no idea what point...

1593100348 I guess Messi who played with him was running around blind-folded.

Yes,He’s like a younger Xavi stylistically. He can also carry the ball and dribble

Have you watched him play

And I’ve watched him significantly more than that and can tell you that he brings attributes that this team is severely lacking. He can carry the ball forward and take 2-3 players with him ala Iniesta. He’s also a slick passer of the ball - much more creative than anything we have right now...

Arthur isn’t “too young”, he’s 24 in August - the ideal age. This deal benefits us immensely, don’t see how people can’t see that.

Currently, Bentancur renders him surplus as he plays that regista role much better as he's more mobile, moves the ball faster and is better on the defensive transition. Also, now at almost 30, Pjanic isn't going to get any better. The club should seriously consider selling him in the summer as...

Pjanic has been taking most recent FKs actually and he has been ballooning them over aswell.

Bullshit rumour. Madrid almost never sign players over 25-26 for big sums. And Modric just extended and is still their best midfielder by a mile. There is literally no space for Pjanic there.

Maybe because the trash around him stank up the place so much; but I didn’t think he was that bad on Wednesday, more so considering he had the flu. He had some nice set-plays (like the corner that Bonucci should have scored from) and he was the only midfielder who had any sort of poise on the...

Yeah you’re correct and I’m not suggesting we should play like that, I was just refuting your point that Isco played CAM in a 4-3-3 when in fact he only played CAM when it was a 4-4-2 diamond. The times he has played 4-3-3, he played the role properly. He took over Modric’s role in the team in...

With most teams that field a 3-man midfield; the 3rd man isn't usually a CAM. The 3 man midfield usually features a holding midfielder (CDM) and two central midfielders slightly ahead of him (LCM & RCM). Isco at RMA played CAM in a 4-4-2 diamond which is essentially a 4-1-2-1-2: - - - - - -...

We're talking nearly? Leverkusen were 1 game away in 3 competitions from winning a historic treble but ended up winning nothing. Football works by fine margins especially at the highest level. Not to mention that final game ended 4-1 to the opposition..

not saying you're right or wrong but what ultra successful team do you know that fielded a 2-man midfield?

Lol its funny how our thinnest position on the field is where all the injuries are; whereas all the other departments have no issues despite having more back-up for those positions:D
