Really? Villa in his first and, especially, 2nd season until he got injured was missing chances like crazy.

If you have forgotten, here is probably the worst miss that I have ever seen..



He was sooo bad that I remember many wanted to sell him. They thought that his time at the top was over...

And dont forget that our greatest striker ever, Eto'o, was was awful in the 2nd half of the treble season..

Funny how fickle fans are..

Villa was great in his first season, what are you on?
He never missed like 5 tap ins in a row, and that chance is not even for Barça, it's a spain chance.

He was great at the start but then in the 2nd half of the season, he had the same problem that Eto'o got in his last season. But the thing is, he scored in the CL final so most people don't remember it..

I didn't know people thought he should start.

I have seen forwards / wingers in a slump but I have never seen even bad player miss as many easy chances as Alexis this year. You can tell he wants to be taken out of the game a lot of the time.

I hate to cut on him because he does work hard but this isn't little league where you get a trying hard medal.

I counted 2 basically tap-in's today and another 2-3 VERY EASY chances. In fact I would say he had the 2 easiest chances of the match and he didn't get anywhere close to scoring.

And comparing him to Pedro I don't think is correct. IF Pedro doesn't play well he works hard just like Alexis but his passing is much much better. Alexis just passes it to the other team Mascherano style a couple times a game for no reason a lot of the time when we are attacking and in position to score. That is a very easy way to give away goals when playing for Barca.

Really? Villa in his first and, especially, 2nd season until he got injured was missing chances like crazy.

If Alexis was able to finish with both his legs, score 9/10 tap ins, and score 20+ goals a season easily, believe me, I wouldn't criticze much if he had a couple of bad months per season.

What he misses regularly would be reason enough to be bashed at my amateur club, and I'm not joking. Today one of my teammates missed a tap in and almost everyone bashed him at the end of the game.

Well, I don't belive you and for good reasons if I might add. You hated Alexis even last season when he scored 2 goals against Real Madrid and was our 2nd top scorer or something, you didn't give him a break..

Totally agree. Alexis' most amount of goals in a league season is 12. Please don't compare him to David Villa or Eto'o.

Both of them bring much more to the table then Alexis and have never been as bad as Alexis this season.

I'n not even exaggerating at all when I say I can't remember anyone miss more easy chances then him and it's not even close. Villa and Eto'o are much better. Not to mention Sanchez is pretty much in his prime right now, you would have to shoot Villa and Eto'o in the leg to have 12 goals in a full season in there prime on this Barca team.

I never hated alexis from the start. Why would I?

Last season Alexis was average, at most, and I started disliking towards the end of the saeson because Pedro was benched in his favour, leading us to be knocked out in the Champions league.

Dude, you had a very bad attitude regarding Alexis from the very start. I can't belive that you are denying it

And Pedro was awful last season! It's his own damn fault that the was benched! I thought that the way he ended last season and started this one was a good sign, but then he stopped playing. Most games he has been invisible for the 90m..

Maybe I had negative feeling about Alexis because he was overpriced, but was willing to give him the chance to impress. Failed miserably.

Pedro was bad last season but with him 180 minutes on the pitch vs. Chelsea instead of Missexis we would probably have another CL.
