YOOO, back with another one! IT was impossible to include everything without making it 45 minutes long! Needed to condense it & only point out the most important stuff to make it less than 25 mins! Of course there's much more to talk about that's why I need to read your thoughts in the comments (I don't know everything, you might enlighten me on a few more things :) )
Finally I needed this from someone like you with all the controversy, enough is enough Thnx for thoroughly discussing this with us it brings peace to my mind
It was a scam...but it was lucky....who ever thinks china would buy him back for better money...10m profit...it is a win win for both...barcelona gets more supporters from china...and people woyld view chinese football better as barcelona buy from china...also chinese fams wd welcome him as he is from barcelona...its just it was lucky
@@UnknownGamer1234-z2f most of the indians are highlights type, if u r aggressive and score some goals they think they r the best, actually they dont even watch football match (most of them) they r just his fans bcoz of his abs and look and his fame, they r just like oh here is famous footballer let us call ourselves his fan lol
Zio , Even when I'm watching Barça play I can still feel something is going on behind the scenes . And it's pretty clear that Bartomeu has hired a YES MAN like Valverde who won't question his motives . Now I have a feeling that even if Pep arrives our problems won't be solved . But I guess we still have hope as the new presidential elections are close by and it is rumoured that Laporta will return . That might help bring back Guardiola .
@@ZioLegend great! Waiting for more great vid btw... But I have a question for you. What thing rakitic is good at? I felt a bit bad when you were criticizing him but I understand why I hope you don't hate him I kinda like him .
@@classonbread5757 i dont think he is that Barcelona player profile.Cause he is really good at spreading the ball around the pitch and forming a double pivot.But then u look at Barca and we already hav Dejong,Busquets in DM who are necessary starters(or Busquets was). Now that Rakitic is back in Seville he can be liberated of pressure on the ball as he will play a lot higher
Great indepth analysis. I'm a all time Barça fan. And these points you just revealed are really a eye opener and shocking.i wish this reaches to all the Barça fans so that finally we once again get to see the beautiful game of barca
What We want/need: Arthur-de jong midfield Riqui puig promotion Charismatic captain (just like puyol) Neymar (Neymar)-griezmann-messi Guardiola/ Eric ten Hag Bartomeu out
Yes to everything but Neymar,you realize Neymar is 28 Years old and is very injury prone,even if he plays until 32,he will be injured for half the time.Do you know what you can get for 200 million?A player as good as Neymar AND a 50 million player,or 4 players that are 50 millon,or 2 100 million players.I know just saying price tags doesn't sound convincing but I guarantee you you can get players better than Neymar for 80~120 million.Im sorry for sounding pissed at you but its just because every Barca fan wants Neymar but it would be such a retarded move for 200 million.I would take Neymar for maybe 100 million,even when he left,I would say 150 million,but he was and is still just a massively over-hyped player.
Hi Sir no worries but we need someone to help leo... I agree he's injury prone now but we need a great LW Dembele doesn't think when he's playing😂 and griezmann is a CF If we need someone other than Neymar that would be Mane.(and he's too pricy too)
Oh man. Thank you millions for this great work. You totally complemented my thoughts. I hope things get better bit by bit and I believe it will start happen soon. 🔴🔵
You said it all brother, and I also think the players are becoming powerful in the club, they feel too comfortable so weather they perform well or not no one questions them..then again theirs no energy in their games again no urge to win...the board is going to turn this club to another AC Milan
Respect for the amount of work and research you put into this, man. Very detailed explanation, every true Barca fan should watch this to help understand the bigger picture.
I've always been suspicious about "Messi wants this , that " It makes me feel like as if Messi runs the club (which is true in a way as everything would collapse if he leaves) Damn, they are destroying Messi's reputation 😢
Amazing work Zio. Great explaination about the certain situation at Barca. Barca generally to rebuild their board and bring on a coach that is really close to the philosofy of Barca(Ten Hag)
Thank you very much for this video bro. Everything was explained and well detailed. Especially the Messi situation. Now every time I see someone saying Messi has influence on transfers and that stuff anytime in the future I’ll link them this video 👍❤️💙
I will sack the board and Valverde. 🤬🤬😡😡. Thanks for this video. This explains every problem we have. The 2021 elections will be the key of the club retuning to top tier. Also. I'm sad for Messi who's last peak years are wasted because of such idiots. I hope Xavi gets enough experience till 2021 to be appointed as the coach
thank you so much :) its so frustrating seeing the current barca not give enough highlight to la masia products and young talents. with this, what are your and the comment section’s thoughts on replacements like koeman and gallardo?
It's times like these that I look at Barca from 2006-2012 and I remember players like Keita and Adriano. The reason I bring these player up is because they showed the holistic vision of the club from a football standpoint. Were they world class? No, but they knew their roles, executed the unified vision and stepped up whenever needed. When I look at this current squad there's no one I can say I have the same faith in. We have young players like Perez, Fati and Puig still at the club but not getting enough game time IMO. Players like Thiago shouldve never been allowed to leave (if possible) and instead we have someone like Arturo Vidal, world class in his day, still physical and aggressive, definitely a goal threat, but not a BARCA player. Why buy Firpo when you have Cucurella and Miranda? Why keep giving Rakitic and Vidal game time when you have Alena and Puig and the latter keep aging and getting worse? Why spend almost 200million on Coutinho to play him out of position then label him a failure? The Barca I fell in love with isn't the same anymore. It's very sad
Sometimes we have to stop being tribalistic and just enjoy football I watch any football game unlike some merchants who only watch their club and are ignorant
you are actually very underrated. Most logical and deep analysis. All your videos are amazing. Please just don't stick to making videos related to a single club. Take cases of other clubs as well and make videos about them as well(like man u or arsenal). Please make a video on Atl. Madrid as well as it is my fav. club.
Well FC Barcelona is FC Barcelona because of politics so no. Barcelona is and will always be a Catalan nationalistic club. The long history and what this club has meant and still mean to the Catalans is something we must keep in safe hands. FC Barcelona was the only way the Catalan people could express their catalanism through without being worried to get put in jail during the Franco regime. This club is like this for a reason and to say that “keep politics out of the club” is like spitting at everything this club has done and meant for people struggling under a very hard dictatorship. FC Barcelona and many other Spanish clubs are extremely politically active so if you don’t like that maybe La Liga isn’t the league for you. I mean the whole strong La Masía tradition comes from politics. Barca were prohibited from transferring more than 3 players (I’m pretty sure I might be wrong here) but Madrid because they were the team Franco used to market got to transfer unlimited amounts of players during any time as long as the transfer window was open. Therefore Barca has pride in the La Masía since they couldn’t transfer in great players they make their own Catalan ones instead and still managed to compete with Madrid even with this disadvantage all other teams but Real Madrid had. This is the main reason why it’s slogan is Més qué un club since it really has been more than just a football club because of all that I said and much more on top of that.
Excellent video. Spot on with a touch of humour. This was a standard above what most premature videos cover on the topic of Valverde and the Barca fix.
This channel is one of the best football channels. No other channel goes so deep into discussions like this one. Awesome video man keep doing what you do💪🏼🔥
You nailed it amigo. I’m Hispanic and have followed Barca through Spanish media since 2004 - their rise and decline. Your diagnosis of the dynamic between Club, Media and Socios was particularly sharp. Fortunately, there are Barca RU-vidrs (Spanish & English) speaking up against what’s happening. Keep up the good work!
I'm sorry to disappoint many people, but Valverde is actually on the right track. Tiki-taka is ridiculously vulnerable in the Champions League: just to give the most typical examples, Pep himself as Bayern manager got completely out-foxed by Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid, and Luis Enrique was left looking a fool by Massimiliano Allegri's Catenaccio, not being able to score a goal against Juventus in 2017, despite having 80% ball possession, which means NOTHING in the Champions League. Valverde CORRECTLY dished tiki-taka, but he did not abandon Barca's traditionally attacking approach. His football is attacking, but it is also DIRECT, as it should be.
@@ramonfrancois9306 I think it has to do with the bad atmosphere and low morale created by the media. The team did fantastically well in the previous two seasons under Valverde, and still people think that Barca can and should win the Champions League every season, as if this is a normal thing. What many people don't understand is that you can't play pure tiki-taka anymore, as other teams have learned to counter it (just as tiki-taka itself destroyed the previous regime in football). At least Valverde is playing ATTACKING football. If you don't like Valverde NOW, you'll miss him when someone like Mourinho takes over....
Incredible content my guy, way better than listening to talk show hosts skim the surface of these issues for 2 minutes every day. Thank you for this and know we appreciate the in-depth analyses. Unparalleled on youtube. Keep it up brother🤟🏼🤟🏼
Man when I first saw this video I thought you were off a perc now in 2020 I still think you were off a perc. Suarez is gone and we have no attacking contributions or anyone to take defenders off of messi and now we have dembele and griezmann who shit themselves when they are given responsibility
Hi. I only now discovered this channel! I have been a Barca supporter since 1988 and this is the best video on this topic so far! I only disagree on one point: Suarez. He is the the best signing of the last 10 years. He has excellent work ethics and his unselfishness and perfect understanding with Messi are worth almost half of Barca's goals in recent years.
Quality video bro. Valverde out, I feel bad for him though. Rakitic and Suarez should be sold next season. Busquets should be 2nd CDM - behind de jong Puig needs to be promoted, fight for a spot with alena. Midfield of de Jong, urther, and puig/alena will be great, they are young and ambitious. Griezman needs to play false 9 or ST, but not LW. Semedo needs a better manager he can be way better than now. Roberto can rotate with urther/puig/alena. But he doesn't really offer anything different. Have Messi, griezman, dembele and ansu fati on the front it's enough. We just need a better manager.
Wonderful video brother. Loved it. I already knew all this before but i just want this vid to hit atleast a million views so that people get to know about the broader problems at Barca. Can you also make a part 2? Thanks
Real Madrid getting back on theyre feet while barca is falling and can´t get up. Like how can you have World Class players and manage a team like that.
What a video!! They last long and they are really intresting!! Barcelona needs to change many things. But pleaseee make a video about how AC Milan fell We where once at the top of the world,just 12 years ago we where winning our 7th Champions League Now we are struggling to reach 5th position in Serie A. But anyway FORZA MILAN❤❤⚽ Hope we will be back
Honestly, I agree with almost everything you have said. Against Liverpool, I knew all they needed was Arthur. Even Guardiola understands this better than anyone. The next match Barca played against real Madrid after the famous 5-0 win Guardiola knew that Real Madrid was definitely going to prepare better. so what did he do? He depended on his Midfield and asked the players to play the whole game at a much slower tempo than usual. I recall that was most unentertaining El classico I remember watching but at the end Barca won 2-0
In my opinion with messi we should have won more champions league titles. Etleast 2 more... We lost to team who weren't as good as us but we didn't fight enough, especially in away games. We lost to inter milan in 2010 in the semi finals even though we beat them in group stage the same year, than against Chelsea in 2012 semi finals even though we had the game in our hands, than against atletico madrid in 2016 who we beat twice in la liga the same season. Not to mention roma and Liverpool. So now the golden generation is gone an we are facing crisis...
Why did Setien play vidal and roberto instead of puig. It just doesn’t make sense and didn’t make wise changes. Why not sub roberto for dembele his pace will surely exploit the space of the bayern high line.
i don't understand what Setien is trying to achieve here the wings are susceptible for us to exploit and players like Dembele and Ansu would hurt bayern while not expose our defense. Why did Suarez play he doesn't have the pace to counter Bayern highline , Griezmann would be a better option.
@Zio Legend, can you please make a video of how to fix barcelona suitable transfers, changes in the board, and potential coaches after Koeman departs please. I love my club, Barca, but it is falling apart due to Bartomeu. Your videos are so good, that's why I am requesting. Please make the video !! Thanks
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 Lovely and clear presentation. You just said the minds of real Barcelona fans. The last point about Xavi and Puyol not being involved is really deep. That reminded me of Victor Valdes's sack from coaching the youth team. I believe the youth team's top priority is supposed to concentrate on building quality players, winning competitions/matches are secondary objectives.
All you said is right but I don't think Griezmann is a striker. Griezmann is more of a second striker, or a false 9, he is more of a playmaker than a finisher.
I was waiting for you opinion on this matter. I dont know all the information you know, but i can agree without a doubt that there is a huge lack of creativity and heavy reliance on Messi. I loved the video, thank you so much. I also have a question. What is your opinion on Neymar being a Short term fix for the lack of creativity with barcelona? I did enjoy watching him play for the club.
Zio Legend saw through all of it, sacking Valverde did not help, made things much worse! Which is why I am concerned as fans are calling "Bartomeu out!", even if Bartomeu leaves Barcelona's problem won't be solved. It could run deeper than that.
@@freeross371 well there is a bit of a problem rt now it seems.The thing is that when the board resigned,i thought that we would get a new permanant board within or less than a month.But the interim board has kept the elections like in Jan end.So there is basically no pressure or force behind Koeman to giv good results rt now.Bad management by the interim board if u ask me.....
Another problem that I see in Barca is that their psychological are "weak" For example:in liverpool game,when liverpool scored 2 : 0 ,everyone could see the nervously on their(Barça players) faces.After it,they lost concentration, confidence and showed weakness to liverpool.The same happened in levante's game,when Levante scored 3 goals in minutes after the break. So ,in my opinion Barca won't win anything this season with this "mentality" or "weakness " and obviously.....with this limited coach and dead players such as Suarez and Rakitic.
