OK/good player at Barca who is showing his true level playing for Chelsea. Not nearly good enough to have caused the uproar when Utd missed out on him.
Fairly standard performance unfortunately.Been really naff today.
Yes, a fair few people embarrassed themselves hilariously over that whole saga,OK/good player at Barca who is showing his true level playing for Chelsea. Not nearly good enough to have caused the uproar when Utd missed out on him.
He's also 28.Who has been worse? Memphis or Pedro?
Atleast you know with Pedro that he's fast and will work a lot defensively.
Yes?He's also 28.
So having a player who's been a bit crap at 28 is rather a lot worse than having one who's been a bit crap at 22.Yes?
22 is not like 18, players mature by 22 now. Memphis for me haven't shown anything to really deserve a place. No pace or skill to talk about. If he doesn't have the legs to run at 22, what will he do at 28? People keep talking about his potential, I am yet to see any evidence of that so far. I haven't seen any of his past seasons, so no idea what he did earlier.So having a player who's been a bit crap at 28 is rather a lot worse than having one who's been a bit crap at 22.

I dare say a 22 year old is more likely to improve than a 28 year old.22 is not like 18, players mature by 22 now. Memphis for me haven't shown anything to really deserve a place.

I'm all for a policy that writes players off at 22. Might have spared us some of the shit we've had to endure over the years, like Scholes.22 is not like 18, players mature by 22 now.

I don't understand why Hiddink isn't playing Kennedy at LW and someone else at LB. At least he looked threatening going forward, Pedro did nothing but lose the ball and stink up the place.Fairly standard performance unfortunately.
Now we've got nothing to play for, I'd like to see Kenedy playing further forward, Baba at right back, Miazga getting a few games in defence, Lofty-Cheeks in midfield and Traore getting a few starts.I don't understand why Hiddink isn't playing Kennedy at LW and someone else at LB.

Straight swap for Messi.Wants a move back to Barca according to Sky Sports..thoughts ?
I'd have him back as would Lucho I imagine but it would be a complicated transfer and Barcelona would be wise not to spend the money needed to return.Wants a move back to Barca according to Sky Sports..thoughts ?

Why do you think he kept getting picked?He's been blessed to be on good sides. Average player for me.
Probably for the same reason we pick the likes of Lingard, Young etc. You have to field 11.Why do you think he kept getting picked?
He was a starter in Guardiola's peak team.Probably for the same reason we pick the likes of Lingard, Young etc. You have to field 11.
You might have a point if Pedro won everything at Chelsea (where we don't have too many better options) but Pedro won most of his stuff with Barca and Spain, who were (at the time) the best teams in the world.Probably for the same reason we pick the likes of Lingard, Young etc. You have to field 11.
Pedro was excellent as part of the Messi Villa Pedro trio.He's been blessed to be on good sides. Average player for me.
Vastly superior.Pedro is like the superior version of Lingard.
The World Cup isn’t worth a shit wowTorres didn't win the World Club cup or UEFA Supercup. Neither of those are worth a shit anyway though.
Pedro also won everything possible to win a club level (La Liga, The Premier League and the respective FA cups).
World Club CupThe World Cup isn’t worth a shit wow
Reading is tough, give the kid a break!World Club Cup
Tbf, winning the World Cup is nowhere near the pinnacle of winning the ELReading is tough, give the kid a break!
No League cup in England...Torres didn't win the World Club cup or UEFA Supercup. Neither of those are worth a shit anyway though.
