It might be too soon to say for sure but in a few years time, we might see another era of La Masia dominance. World-class at young, now imagine later on

[@SaffronRifle]

but even reel madrid is cooking, so i doubt about the dominance. But surely we will improve

Going off of current form it looks like the next decade of football will mostly be Barça, Real Madrid, Leverkusen, PSG, Arsenal, Tottenham, Girona, Inter, Milan and Juventus doing well. I don’t mention teams like City, Liverpool or Atletico because their key players are getting old and 2 of those clubs will be experiencing massive managerial and internal changes.

That pass over the top he made to Fermin was *ridiculous*, in addition to how solid he was.

[@MessitheKingandgoat]

[@TheKapec2001]

Araujo wasn't ELITE at the beginning. In fact many would say that he was really bad at distributing ball back then. He developed it under Xavi and he became somewhat of a decent passer just last season.

[@DontAttme]

He’s still not the greatest distributor in the back, I would still have Kounde over him. Lucky for both of them (or unlucky maybe) Cubarsi has already shown that he is more suited to it.

[@arjunayyappan4337]

[@Krato65]

That's exactly why Pau cubarsi needs to be paired with him..Araujo doesn't need to distribute the ball, he must sweep and block the opponents attack more of an agressive defender who clears the ball out of danger and anticipates and blocks counter attacks.

Yes, just want to say Barca need a ball-winning CDM, yes people say they have De Jong but they need a new Busquets or just a world class CDM, Partey if healthy, Thuram are some what cheaper options.... But I think if they could go a bit higher could go for Kimmich or even far better option Palhinha from Fulham

Really amazing video, I’m glad I found this. Great in-depth explanation of our defensive woes the past few years and what has made us so successful/woeful in recent times. Very excited about young players shining like Fort, Cubarsi, Lamal

[@olusojisylvestertomilola6445]

TBF Abidal was mostly a left back. But yeah Marquez and Gabi Milito were impressive depth options. With Yaya, Abi and Chygryns... not far behind.

[@ibratella7476]

chygrynsky was the worst defender barca ever bought

[@luckyokhihie9752]

​@@ibratella7476Absolutely. His name should not be mentioned in the barca books.

[@sld1776]

Pep wanted to keep him. Really good passer who struggled his first year. Pep believed he could make an elite player out of him, but the board sold him.

[@akshaytawde3675]

Jeremy Matheu was amazing that season. As a backup option he was amazing

[@juanyascaribay5385]

You are right, these young players need more rest and have a life of teenagers. Hopefully they don’t get injured or something like that. Cubarsi and Yamal are the future for Barca and they need to be taken care so they don’t get injured.

[@guiudeu474]

Pau Cubarsi might be one of my favorite center back I’ve seen lately on Barcelona. And at the end he comes from here, Catalonia, he has in him and la Masia helped made him shine! Awesome video Robby!!!

[@adityasinha6108]

Can you make a detailed video on how good pique was because I think that people do not rate him as high as he should be

[@andreaswurtzadamsen1711]

It's just wrong to enter Abidal in this equation. It wasn't until 2010-2011 that Abi was playing significant minutes at centreback. Yaya Touré played more minutes in central defence than Abidal in 2008-2009. The overall point still stands, but with a bit more research you would have realized that Martín Cáceres was Pep's fourth choice centreback in 2008-2009. Well, fifth choice behind Yaya by the time they had reached the Champions League final. Abi played almost exclusively at left-back in his first three seasons at Barça.

[@amedlak]

I remember Marques scoring headers left and right from corners l

[@aristodiga82]

just some correction. On 2008/2009 Abidal mainly a starter on left back position. He plays several times on CB position, but he was not the main backup for Puyol. Puyol's main backup was Gabriel Milito, who ironically injured more often than Puyol (at the time). Abidal was starting left back, with Sylvinho as backup plus Martin Caceres who can play both as right or left back. Nevertheless, the argument still stands, it was a solid backline, with Dani Alves at the peak of his career. This year, yes Cubarsi is great.. but do also note that the number of goal conceded by the team was when Ter Stegen is injured. Inaki Pena is good, but he is no Ter Stegen. At the same time the starting defenders took turn getting injured, and you are correct about the pivot position being the team's weakness. I the last 2 months, while it is great to see Cubarsi blossoms and Christensen can fill the pivot role well (defensively), don't overlook Ter Stegen's contribution. The team's solidity in defense has returned at the same time as Ter Stegen's return. That is not a coincidence.

[@DEMA_F-zt6on]

Cubarsi at CDM double pivot alongside Marc bernal would be like rodri & John stones duo tho , for CB promote mikail faye & mamadou fall from la masia

[@beanwr2877]

mamadou is on loan if i am correct

The crazy amount of goals we conceded isn't only because the backline wasn't at it's best but also cuz they didn't have a goalkeeper behind them they could trust. Pena is not at all at the level we needed, now Ter Stegen is back and slowly getting back in form, you feel that the defenders have a little more ease that if they make a mistake, Ter Stegen will be there

As for making him a pivot.I wont go with that He is too young and inexoerienced for that role . Faye is another promising defender to look oit for in the future .He is a power play defender and tackles nicely to win the ball.I see a combo of Cubarsi and Faye in future .I hooe Barca keeps Faye .He reminds me of Nesta

Bro this guy understood my theory on how barca risen and fell the pique needed Puyol and mascherano and In every transfer window that barca had after 15 I was always frustrated, cause they don't sign good enough defenders instead sign bankrupting players like Coutinho ,dembele, griezman I wonder how many hundreds of million has barca put just in these three.

I’ve never seen CB as good as Cubarsi at age of 17. Even Maldini, because he started his career as LB. We are witnessing something history of football never seen before. It is easy to be amazing winger at age of 17, but as CB it was not done and propbably possible. We are not putting pressure on kid, but he is not letting us to have other choise - he is the best CB is Barca already and in my opinion second best in Europe, just behind Bastoni.

[@Han-qp6pe]

It's weird to say that cubarsi is probably the best young defender in europe right now but that's a fact, he's literally pocketing in-form strikers with great records and it's so funny to see, still going back to watch the napoli vs barca second leg, that match was insane lol, cubarsi and araujo were the best duo that match, barca can make an amazing future for him only if they make him play just enough so he doesn't injure himself, as shameless as it sounds he's someone we need right now for the future of barca
