Kounde has been amazing this second half of the season and gotta give Xavi lot of credit for sticking to kounde being a right back

[@KT-pu3gn]

Well, if the reports were factual, it was kounde, the one that didn't want to play as a fullback, but I guess he did better there that he undestrtood he should play there

[@_wh1te_]

That's the mentality we culers want from every Barca player

[@WalidBarca.]

Its good that Kounde sees that he is better as RB than as CB

[@jovidwaakzaam1865]

The fact everyone keeps overlooking Christensen in cb is jaw dropping. He's the type of player that keeps dropping solid performances unnoticed.Yet everybody puts cubarsi ahead of him(not that cubarsi is a bad player of course).

[@CustomerHub3]

It baffles me tbh

[@josueneria4785]

@@CustomerHub3 facts we need to play BACK once balde is healthy

[@planetebeautecali4485]

​@@josueneria4785He's not solid.

[@planetebeautecali4485]

​​@@CustomerHub3he's never really solid.

[@planetebeautecali4485]

He's not that solid he's error prone plus, Cubarsi has serious potential and not playing him just delays his progress.

[@Taurean_SAMA]

Big props to Xavi for sticking with putting him in RB, even he is convinced that it is better that way.

[@Phanim009]

Xavi feels that his influence on player selection in the transfer market is virtually non-existent. His primary requirements are a proper winger and a central defensive midfielder. However, the club provided him with Félix and Romeu, while spending significant funds on Roque, who doesn't address the current team needs. Xavi's tactics started to click when Gavi was available, allowing for proper rotational strategies. Nonetheless, the absence of versatile midfield profiles has prevented his tactical plans from fully materializing, causing the team to suffer. Xavi’s approach is not flawed; rather, the issue lies in the composition of the players. They are either exceptionally talented or third-rate, one-dimensional players who struggle to adapt without compromising tactical control. This inconsistency is why Xavi experimented with multiple tactics throughout the season to accommodate different player combinations, prompted by rotations and injuries. The less adept players often got confused by these frequent tactical adjustments, leading to lapses in concentration and increased opportunities for the opposition. Xavi is a tactical mastermind, but the bench strength is failing him. Any other manager would likely face similar challenges over a long season without adequate backups. Barcelona needs a reset in their mentality, shifting from their super-team standards to a more realistic approach aligned with their current capabilities. President Joan Laporta appears more concerned with his public image ahead of the upcoming elections than addressing the on-field problems. Although he brings in money and works hard, he seems disconnected from the actual issues affecting the team. This situation highlights a miscommunication between the director, manager, and players. Barcelona must place their trust in Xavi, who is fully committed to the project. He should be given complete control over the team and the academy for at least three more years, similar to the support Jürgen Klopp received at Liverpool. With Xavi’s guidance, academy players will develop into proper bench options with suitable profiles through adequate game time. Only with this long-term strategy can the team hope to achieve success over a prolonged season. Xavi’s game awareness and tactics are top-notch, recognized by analysts, professionals, and players, even if they are not immediately apparent to the average fan. Esteemed pundits like Pep Guardiola and Thierry Henry acknowledge his tactical acumen. The failure to execute these tactics is not due to Xavi but because the players have been unable to replicate them. Therefore, Xavi’s reliance on academy youth players for these critical positions is a deliberate strategy to develop them into the right profiles over the years. By providing them with proper game time, Barcelona can build a cohesive and effective team capable of sustained success.

This news came in the beginning of the season. That's why I didn't believe the news He can Dibble if there's space he makes good runs its just the crossing

[@shamarjames6717]

Thanks for the news 🙂

[@isaac27ae]

Will Joao Felix stay? 😢

[@abhijithkrishnag8842]

We got an extremely solid backline. But our attack sucks. Thats where we need to improve.

This is better news than all the drama going on

[@l_a_capone1366]

Props to you Kevin, people have been hating on you lately but you’ve been talking about this particular topic and this proves how right you are on this one

[@viscaelcatalonya9222]

but kevin you are definitely forgetting the fact that christensen is clear of cubarsi in every single way yet you keep overhyping our youngsters like cubarsi when he is no where near christensen’s level even as a center back..

[@siyabongam5962]

Yes and he should not be playing as much not to say his bad but he needs his minutes managed correctly his inexperience is still gonna cost us in big games u just wait and see

Barca should be unite like real Madrid in front of goal Post, to score a better goals than them because they create chances more than them,,,, It's greedy that makes them not to score most of their goals and loose the game as well They really need that to carry what ever trophy that comes their way

[@wario1015]

Can’t wait for Gavi to come back.

[@petermarkovits-ke2gp]

I will nor keep neither Cancello or Joa Felix. Cancello isnot good enough in deffending one on one. Felix is not good ebough on attacking one on one. Both are slow. We must increase the speed of our players. Lewa is slow. Gundogan is slowing. Raphinha is slow on one on one. Xavi made this team too tactical with to many passers backward instead of forward. And this is the case with Gavi, DeJong and Pedri. The only ones we have with explosive reactiins on one on one are Yamal and Fermin. Not enough to win all the games needed to win La Liga. Un attack we need players who could creatw superiority by wining duels on one on one. With additions like Simons, Nico, Isaks, Zubimendi, Casado, Faye, etc.. we could win LaLiga next year. Get rid of Xavi, keep Roque, bring Raffa Marquez to the first team.

[@Ruugejr]

Balde too is not good defensively and he's not good enough.

[@musiqlife7909]

Nah Kevin this team has lost its respect in Europe. Even if players desire to improve game play they will never be heard. Barca has become that club that buys young players and send em out on loan without giving them playing time to establish themselves. It did work with some players, but players would be scared to make a move to Barca by now. We only have one real left Back which is Balde, and you said it Kounde is not a real right back and Cancelo is weak defensively. I'm afraid Barca will send Fort on loan and keep Cancelo as dumb as the sporting director Deco is these are realities of this Big Club. I would so love Barca to sign Brighton youngster Barco to give Balde competition. But it's a long shot regarding the mess Barca create with with young players from South America.

[@rakelmuleya878]

While most of the things you stated are true, I’d like to disagree with this point “ Barca has become one of those teams that buys young players and send them on loan”. Besides rumors of sending roque on loan Garcia inclusive, which other player has barca bought and sent them on loan to develop that reputation?

[@nathangittens2148]

Balde Cancelo left and Kounde Fort right back

[@L.4utumn]

Well well well last last season we have B.A.C.K Now we still can have B.A.C.K(balde, araujo, curbasi, kounde 😂

I know it might sound crazy but why doesn’t Barcelona for some time play with ONLY masia players. I mean an academy where Messi, Xavi, and iniesta came from. And don’t tell me some players aren’t ready, look at the youngsters now playing.

[@crisis_za6491]

Can only play with 4 youth academy players in the starting 11 doing that would mean having to register all of those youngsters to the first team which is almost impossible and simply not smart

[@Andyria]

@@crisis_za6491 Ohhh, oh well we’re screwed 💀

[@amaking8961]

If you look at real madrid all there players know how to score a goal... all the barca player should learn how to dribble and score

[@afallenworld1581]

Imagine a manager letting Kounde dictate to him.
