Watching this in a post 8-2 world and you hear Pato say, “I think Barca are in serious trouble” ... just hire him now Barca he will help us!!!
A striking thing that most people miss about Pjanic coming to Barcelona is, he provides a very good creative option in this pretty unconvincing midfield. I know he adds quite an age factor to the squad. But I feel this squad is being build to facilitate Messi with a short term perspective. Messi has to win more, and given his age he won’t be able to drive the ball from deep midfield positions all the way to the goal. He’s definitely aging in his stamina.
Retirement home
Losing Neymar sent Barcelona spiralling down this rabbit hole. Having his release clause paid by PSG was something they thought would never happen as their Plan A for the future revolved building a side with him in it. They haven't been able to make a Plan B, C or D and shows that they have never been able to recover from the shock. It really is a sight to behold... how the mighty have fallen.
lubricate my dick idiots...
Arthur doing a Dybala by bragging about playing with Messi and now CR7, Dude is living the dream
Love the podcast
TBF Hakimi has a clause the allows him to come back to madrid for the same price for 2 years and madrid have a choice if he wants to transfer and they get a cut so basically when carvajal is 30 we can get him so in my opinion its a good deal especially that we don't pay wages and he gets full play time. Good day!
We also have Alvaro odriozola so the future in right back is bright
Alex Ostin dortmund didn’t sell him he was on loan there
That clause can't possibly stand if dortmund sells him
Always love the duo of Chris and Pat together
Whenever a player becomes bigger than a club, its time to ship him off. Its time to sell Messi while he is still worth something. Barca should sell the half of their current squad and replace it with promising youngsters. Considering COVID, its going to cost them substantially less to do that in next periods. Its make or break. Otherwise, Real and Atleti are going to outshine and outclass them.
How football daily made the summer’s worst INworlds video.
Xavi and Iniesta didn't light up the stats sheet either. Stats are fine, just don't get too obsessed with it.
Look at how much trouble Real Madrid were in just before Zidane came back. They were getting slated left, right and centre and were nowhere near winning La Liga. Now look at them compared to Barcelona. One are on the up and one are dropping.
Dream duo
Quality podcast, we get our inspiration. Check us out inworlds.info/plus/staZvKeleHzHuLI/v-iy
damn yall dont really watch la liga
As a long term juve fan, I agree with your analysis of the sporting considerations, for I am unsure what Arthur offers beyond what we already have. And yes, the club have been building him up as some mega coup, when it could turn out that its merely a piece of cunning accounting to make the profit margins look great on paper, but on the field, he ends up not proving potent enough to dislodge Rabiot, Matuidi or Bentancur. Juve hugely need a major signing at DM. Unless Bentancur is ear-marked to play there and maybe he should be, for the only thing missing from his game now is potency in the final third, which isnt to say his passing is poor, far from it, more a case of his best areas seem combative and central, not creative.
Xavi, Modrić, Pirlo...from 30-35 years old (best years with most trophies). Pjanić is 30 now with a similar stile of play. Played for Lyon, Roma and Juve. Arthur who???
Barca should sign Pogba, still on the younger side, an absolute athlete and fits in well with a ball dominant side like Barca
Guendouzi is terrible, i don't know what people see in him.
juventus have done really well with this! barcelona is literally a place players go to die now starting 11 is full of 28+ year olds
Asamoah is basically dead and i can’t believe that moses was bad enough to push us in the direction of the signing of my life
check the average age of barcelona team these days ???? !!!!!!!!
supporting SKY
Puyol or Xavi need to become Manager of Barca soon
That's worse than barca signing coutinho
madrid? yes atleti? no
Worst transfer if you look at the players. But what I read is that it has to do with financially making it look better at Barcelona. If thats not true then 100% worst transfer by Barcelona.
Barcelona fan here. The best match i have seen this year when the main team had a lot of injuries and the la Masia players had to be forcefully put in the team by the manager. It was like watching the old barcelona with a lot of energy. They need to get back to their roots. build a team with barcelona youngsters and the superstars
Pat was spot on about Guendouzi, he’s exactly the sort of player people would say we need if we didn’t have him. He needs more time, loads of potential.
Perfect meal time entertainment.
PVS could talk about anything and itd be entertaining Only thing he's said that annoys me is that Torreira is better than Xhaka
You guys are great but I feel like you ignore the fact that players often play into their 30s, having old players isn’t necessarily bad. Although it can be
Juve aren’t actually paying €80 mill for him. They’re only paying €10 mill in cash. That’s a great deal for them
My response to a mathematical question the complexities of FFP and the financial troubles of Barça: 20:29
Juve have the better bargain but Barça are losing! Arthur could have been a great figure for the future of Barça and they lost it. I think Barça should have saved up for Neymar, sold Dembele, keep Grizmann and play him as a Suarez replacement, Coutinho can be a squad depth player, sell Rakitic to the MLS- like NYCFC (like Modric should go to Sporting Kansas before returning to Dinamo Zagreb with Rakitic); and Vital needs to go back to Chile. They needed to invest in a future backline for Pique replacement and defensive/overall midfield like Tonali or Van Der Beek. This is just crazy money for balancing the books and getting FFP off there backs. Barça should have also trusted in youth as well so I think they’re losing their club morals and principles of ‘Más que un club’. It isn’t Setién isn’t the issue it’s the owners that are losing it and they are letting a decaying ageing Real Madrid win titles. They’re losing it. They should have got strong youth talent and being in the best of La Masia and could have got some free contacts too to fill in the gaps for subs or rotation like Arthur would have been. But they’ve lost it! Juve on the other hand is fine. I think Juve are still just clicking to Sarri’s tactics and Ramsey could be a key playmaker for replacing Matuidi who needs to just go to Troyes or St Etienne. They need Jorginho, SMS and Some of Napoli’s strong defenders like Koulibaly but Juve is needing to invest in youth and maybe even become the Italian La Masia of Serie A like with Tonali and Donnarumma. But Juve have the better bargain and the better player- Barça are losing it and it comes from the top. Messi won’t stay long if Barça’s owners are just flushing the cash down the toilet. Very poor by Barça. *Very very POOR AGAIN!!!* *BARÇA ARE LOSING THERE HEADS AND LOSING THEIR LOGICAL PLANNINGS FOR THE FUTURE!!!* *MESSI GET OUT NOW- GO BACK TO NEWELL’S BOYS OR GO TO INTER MIAMI NOW AS THEY HAVE LOST THEIR COMPETITIVE WILLINGNESS TO WIN TROPHY AND BE THE BEST TEAM IN EUROPE!!!*
What are “tinned tomatoes”... ohhhh! Canned tomatoes 🍅
Tbh it could be the BEST transfer. Pjanic could play amazing in our squad and combine amazing with Busquets, Riqui Puig, DeJong, Messi etc. 30 isn't even old tbf. Players can play till 40 and I'm sure Pjanic could play top level till like 35. Eg Pirlo went to Juventus at 32 but became a legend and I'm sure Pjanic would fit in very well. He is Barca's best midfielder after Busquets and Riqui Puig. He would fight for the starting 11 with De Jong. But De Jong and Busquets could sometimes switch so I guess Pjanic would be a guaranteed starter. He WILL be amazing. Also he is miles ahead of Arthur. Creativity, vision, passion ability... I can't wait for him playing alongside Busquets, Riqui Puig and De Jong! 😍
I’ve heard some talk that the reason Hakimi was sold to Inter was because Inter wanted Barca’s Semedo in a swap plus cash deal for Lautaro Martinez and Real basically didn’t want that to happen hahah...
Maybe its becoz for less time since pjanic will retire n barca again can sign a new deal ? ...who else think like this
Jaws has been in the same position on Pat's shelf during the whole of lockdown
It feels like the Barca board is intentionally fucking the squad. Shit's fucked.
I saw a report that said Messi wants to leave Barca and I dismissed it because why would he want to leave the club he spent his whole life at. Then I saw these 2 transfers and I understood. I’d want to leave as well if I was Messi as well. Maybe go to some Italian club and battle Ronaldo some more or go play with your friend Neymar in France for a few years for a big paycheck
Ibrahimovic, Coutinho, Griezmann? 😂 I don't think Pjanic transfer is as bad as the three above
Barcelona are sacrificing the future for the short term by making deals that don't even help them in the short term
Didnt Malcolm cost more than Arthur just curious 🤔
Would be intersting to know how good Rakitic and Vidal are when looking at statistics, especially Vidal who has been a starter for a while now.
If Arthur were really worth 80m Barca wouldn't have shipped him out
From a football sense yes but finicially allegedly both teams set to make 52mil from the transfer
There must be something else in Hakimi deal, maybe its a sweetener for Martinez in a year or so
Why does Matuidi play so much!? He’s reliable, experienced (like Busquets) and versatile (like Rakitic). Pjanic can be, he needs to rediscover his mojo. Arthur? Has ability, a reputation (from Gremio), has worn the Barca shirt...hopefully, he has a better environment to grow. Juve, I’m doubtful. Should have gone to Lazio ( a progressive team, where he’ll get quality time and be appreciated) & taken over from another Brazilian, L Leiva.
who agrees that Pjanic is better than Arthur?
BS!! It's Arthur for 10 mil to juve and Barca are getting Pjanic for free. : Barca board
Absolutely creased at Hammill and his catastrophic ingrown hairs hahaha, absolutely love this channel, quality lads
I personally can not wait for the inevitable downfall of Barcelona when Messi retires, obviously they’ll remain a top club because la Liga is a farmers league, but they won’t compete for a long time I don’t believe.
Sponsor shoutout ends at 31:24
Barcalona is a very strange club. They never learned from their mistakes
Barcelona is not going to win anything for 2-3 yrs as the player are ageing and board are not ready to sign good young players when barca played against A madrid there average Was 30.7 this was due to puig 20 Barca board are the worst, they don’t spend wisely they are wasting money . The player power is also increasing and i don’t think any coach is going to settle good
Only thing barca is happy with is puig playing his numbers against atm was great
People talking on Guendouzi, same thing when Keane or Vieira do, they show fighting spirit. If these guys do it, it's being a dick head. He is not there yet but has the potential and showing the attitude required
I won’t lie, Hamil and PVS is the dream combo
Imagine thinking that swapping a 23 year old that’s developing for a 30 year old who’s on the decline is a good idea. It’s like dumping a super model for a grandma. Barca are in trouble.
Why don't any of you talk about Trinicao?
BECAUSE I DONT'T KNOW WHO HE IS! [Hamill]
How can pato rate kovacic but not authur when kova literally does nothing in the final third either
Lewis Bromilow I hear that but I watch chelsea week in and out and my thing with kova is while he does put in a lot of tackles his actual defensive positioning is overrated. I see him time and time again not track runners. He’s even been out of favor recently at Chelsea and it’s simply because he’s not outstanding at anything other than dribbling.
ktill97kt Because he’s a great presser and has amazing defensive numbers.
This is a blessing in disguise for authur. Barca are Milan 2.0
The 10 minute advert in the middle was embarrassing. I enjoyed the football talk though
Hey there, Pato. Just wanted to say as an Arabic native that the word "Achraf" is pronounced with a normal "sh" sound in Arabic (so like in the word mashup), not the way you say it :))
You guys should watch out for a copyright lawsuit cause here in Belgium the tvshow that covers football is also called extra time just saying
Arthur has Thiago 2.0 written all over him
Pjanic is no good. Arthur is quality. What are they thinking?
This is a pretty bad transfer. No disrespect to Pjanic but he is already 30.
Lovely stuff boys ❤️❤️✌️
Ty matey [Hamill]
My beard started out as laziness and I wasn't really keen but to be honest it really grew on me
I can’t wait for the elections next year, the current board are literally a massive cancerous tumour.
the pjanic arthur swap may actually end up making a lot of sense for both teams in a 2-3 years imo, and here is why: they are quite the similar player which on paper makes it look bad for barca, but with puig coming through the ranks and looking really impressive there needs to be room for him aswell, which is a spot Arthur would be occupying. i believe barca will be aiming for a midfield consisting of De Jong - new CDM - Puig, or Pedri - De Jong- Puig. arthur wouldn't add anything to that midfield. Looking at juves situation they will basically be getting a younger version of Arthur, who still can develop to become better, win-win for both clubs.
Chris talking about painting numbers on the bins is stupidly relatable, we've had ours stolen countless times...
Haha. Has to be done! [Hamill]
Tho arthur pjanic swap is not the best, Barca are still going to have a seasoned player adding more creativity in their mid.
I think Hakimi in an essence is Maicon 2.0 and Conte seems to building a revised version of Inter's 2010 treble winning team.
The Arthur deal is actually even more scummy than it looks. Essentially, the board needed to raise a certain amount of money to satisfy the budget they made at the beginning of the year, or else they’d be personally liable. This deal was only made so the board could save themselves money.
Is 'x i' quicker to say than eleven though.....
Guendouzi is fantastic. He’s 21, he wears his heart on his sleeve. There’s not enough of that in this squad. Give Arteta time to mould him, he’s got the raw talent. Sometimes you’ve got to be calm and hope they calm down with time too.
............
Where does Joe disappear to these days?
People who complain about Hakimi’s defensive acumen, or somehow the lack thereof, forget who his new manager is going to be at Inter. Hakimi under Conte is going to be a problem!
what do u use to find ur stats???apart from whoscored or do u only use whoscored thank u
This is becoming my favourite vid of the week
Better make sure you sub to that new pod channel when it drops then! [Hamill]
New drinking game: drink every time you hear ‘ touch on earlier ‘
Nice bag Real got from Inter for Hakimi....however watching him fly down the right wing for Real Madrid would be really fun. Alas, it was not meant to be.
"Conjure some testosterone that I clearly don't have." "...you little hoarder." For a brief moment, I thought this pod was taking a sharp left.
I feel like Barcelona and Real's transfers have been beyond abysmal for at least 5-6 years now. Are there ANY teams with a worse transfer strategy? Pure clownery at this stage...
Barcelona is going to be absolutely screwed within the next couple of years
Thanks for letting us know times aren't tight Ham-ham
you guys focus too much on stats. You can see how arthur would fit in at Sarri's team. You need more technicality on the ball, just genuine technique, touch etc which arthur has a lot
Balancing the books after spending over 100 million on Griezmann, Dembele and Coutinho. Sacrificing ArtooooooOOOOOr as a result. YIkes.
Why am i subscribed to this shit ?
lovely
Barcelona's team is older than the old lady herself
The longest ad on a youtube podcast I've ever heard. The seriousness taken into is impressive. But enough about that, the football content is still top bin. Good work
A week to paint your front door, how big is your door?
loool
Happy to see Barcelona falling in grace because besides from Messi they are a very arrogant team. Think they invented football lol
Also they've allowed Cucurella to move to Getafe on a permanent deal after they exercised their right to buy him on loan
Sometimes I wonder if you guys actually watch football, or base your opinions of twitter stats
I wont be suprised if real Madrid have put a buy-back close for Hakimi, similarly to what they did to morata when he went to juve
