Re: Frenkie De Jong

I like some of the young players coming through especially in Midfield Valverde and llorente can get to a high level imo.

Flo knows what he is doing this season is sorting out the dead weight and what's useful, its not going too bad tbh team still competing for now, this summer the club is gonna enter the market for 1 or 2 big players depending how the season works out, that been the plan a good one at that.

The prices for some of these players are ridiculous still hopefully 250 mil buy a winger and cf, get James back should be solid.

City and PSG didnt get to sign him. So, yea. Good.
And Barca will have Arthur and this guy in the midfield for years now. Shocked

for example we could sign Hazard last season for 200ML but we waited to analyse the situation and test our current squad. now that we know Bale and Asensio are not going to be what we thought, we are going to sign Hazard. for about 100ML less of course.

What the hell are you talking about? You really think €100m difference is worth the humiliation you're facing this season?

What humiliation? you can predict the future or something? lol. Barca fans should worry about their own team because after spending so much money you can't even beat Roma.

Griezmann: “Best player I’ve faced? I would say Frenkie de Jong. Whenever I tried to pressure him I never succeeded.” [via oh my goal]

If the best player in the world says so.....

We couldn't pressure him either, man. Caused us all kinds of trouble. Griezmann, AKA Mr. Muscle knows his stuff hmm

Another great performance.

This is who Madrid should've signed to replace Modric not a stiff bum like Eriksen.

by The Demon of Carthage Fri Jun 07, 2019 7:26 pm

They are not signing Eriksen either. He confirmed a few days back that Madrid still hasn't contacted Tottenham to sign him.

by Myesyats Fri Jun 07, 2019 7:28 pm

I thought he was amazing. Great awareness, picks his passes perfectly and its almost impossible to take the ball off him.

I hope we can get Eriksen too, they would pair up well I think. And Eriksen is far better than what we have.

did pirlo not see de jong get ruined by scrubs like sissoko and dire in the champions lge.

What GL fails to realize, if you get outplayed sometimes, doesn't mean you're not truly good.

Prime Barca midfield got outplayed by Wilshere. There are days.

by futbol Fri Jun 07, 2019 10:34 pm

He is overrated but he is much better than Busquets right now so I take it.

To replace Modric? Both Modric and Eriksen have far better passing ability than De Jong. If anyone, he would replace Casemiro hmm

Nonsense. Thiago is the best midfielder in the world and has been for years.

by Myesyats Sat Jun 08, 2019 9:30 am

Have to agree with Hans. Yesterday I accidentally visited the Whoscored ratings website and to my surprise Thiago claims 10th place. No further inspection needed.

by Doc Mon Jun 10, 2019 7:39 am

Lovely talent but it was a joy to see him get outplayed by William Carvalho lol.

Barca has themselves a pretty good midfielder tbh.

Feel sorry for the guy, he seems like a nice chap and a good footballer, coming to a team run by a board who understands zero about football and coached by the most pessimistic coach in Spain after Marcelino.

UEFA midfielder of the season.

What a shame. He threw his career away by joining Barcelona.

You have said some odd and wild things though they tend to have some good points in them but this one I would honestly like you to put on your serious cap and explain

by danyjr Fri Aug 30, 2019 11:20 pm

Playing under the guidance of the Spanish Conte while carrying Messi's water isn't the best way to develop your skills as an attack-minded central midfielder.

Would have achieved far more had he chosen to go to City IMHO.

by futbol Fri Aug 30, 2019 11:32 pm

Go to City, a club which will go back to being midtable once Agüero (31), Silva (33), Fernandinho (34) and Pep are all gone within the next 2 seasons. Okay.

by danyjr Sat Aug 31, 2019 2:06 am

2 seasons is still 20% of your prime footballing career. Players leave after 2-3 seasons anyway. All good in my books.

by Hapless_Hans Thu Jan 16, 2020 7:44 am

Mike van Beijnen - the son of Frenkie de Jong's agent - leaves Barcelona B without playing a SINGLE MINUTE... just six months after signing a deal with a €100MILLION release clause! https://t.co/oXs2CkrT7J
