RIQUI PUIG became a REAL BEAST at LA GALAXY 😱 

Xavi is a realistic not a dreamer He see them everyday playing and if the didn’t show their talent in the training against his team mates do you thing he gonna be good vs Madrid ? Athletico? And btw he didn’t play well when he was get the chance. Defensively he was shit. His Niveau at the MLS? Says nothing about him. It’s a weak league with all respect

​@@al7abab man Riqui Puig at training was a beast, just go see some videos and you will see. And when he was given a chance to play? 10 minutes before the end of a game is not a CHANCE to show his talent. They all had crazy potential but he gives 100% of his trust to Gavi and Pedri while the others deserved it too.

can you get me one too bro

Balde, Arujo, Kounde, Pedri, Gavi, Ansu are all young. Puig is also spanish, whats your point ?

What support are you talking about? I was a huge fan and wouldn't be searching for his highlights (I searched to get here) if I don't still have high hopes for him. He played safe timid football; always a busy bee, asking for the ball just to recycle like Arthur Melo, never taking any risks, no bold adventurous pass; only sideways and backward passes until Pedri emerged. Didn't take his chances. Still hoping for him to become a star.

@@everydaymaths360 He (Puig) said he didn't feel like he had the trust of the coach to make mistakes. The way you described his play sounds exactly like the way someone would play who was afraid to make a mistake.

Exactly! Riqui went out to the nights Club with Piqué 3-4 times a week!

Sorry,but Puig used to be the only one at Barca who was able to put something unpredictable on the pitch. Also he used to be one of the best player when it came to holding the ball. It was nearly impossible to take the ball from him without faulting. He earned more free kicks than Messi when he got the chance from Valverde. The side passing game started under Koeman and still goes under Xavi. Puig used to be the only one who took risk and try to operate with lobbed passes behind the defensive lines or a strong passes between the defenders and he used to make the wingers run behind the defenders quickly with long balls. That’s why he wasn’t popular,because he skipped the casual way ( first pass to Messi,than pass to Messi,and after pass to Messi) . He always looked for the one who was in the best position,not for the one who had the biggest name on his shirt. This days Barca still building they attacks super slow. If the opponents sit back they have no clue what to do. Xavi have no plan for that. Puig used to force one on one’s,take ons … Xavi loves to let the ball go around for 20-30 minutes before they try something…..

​@@barcagel it's not xavis fault puig wasn't gonna start ahead of pedri who was is the better option was that profile puig defensively wasn't good

"Puig mostly played sideway passes during barca carrier which xavi didnt liked.." Did you see Fati played sideway passes after his return from injury sustained in Jan 2022 ?? Fati dare not dribble or accelerate (1v1). Xavier still give Fati minutes in most games ... Fati is off market sale now. Xavier did not give the same opportunities to Puig ... (i.e Jutgla, Abde etc) .. no ??

@@novice4648 we cant compare puig with fati.fati was a star before injury he deserved minute ..even though fati lost his dribbling he still got good intelligence in movements and where to be in game he lacked goal which very surprising considering how good was he before that.xavi used him as a second stricker than winger to who doesnt needed to dribble because he lost it..but considering puig there was lot much competition with pedri gavi and dejong arrival..and for midfielder u should also very aggressive off the ball ..how can three managers be wrong..

@@sakshamwaghmare3199 other managers were wrong to not give him the minutes he deserved but when Xavi came to many better options were there for him In the midfield Tbh without pedri we don't have a player like puig who can take risky passes on and come in the box for a goal we saw how much are attacked struggled when there was no pedri by now we have gundo In case of fati he was given the number 10 and to this date we don't have a proper LW but currently abde is there I think personally abde should be given more opportunities than fati this season

"We have plenty midfielders no need of puigi" Two proven toothless duo [pedri, gavi] ... and expects to perform well at big games. One plays safe ... while the other is highly energetic but brings nothing to the table ... no creativity ... no play-making ... low G/A. [Lewandowski told @ELEVENSPORTSPL | 17 Mar 2023] "Pedri has great ball control, but the goal of football is to score goals. I tell him that he needs to score more goals, and not only that, but also provide more assists. I remind him not to be afraid in attack."

⁠@@novice4648you are a casual Barcelona midfield is too good for Luigi. He will be successful somewhere else.

good troll tho.

lol

nah

Acting like he gonna play when Madrid have Modric, Kroos, Bellingham, Camavinga, Tchuomeni, and even Valverde even tho he’ll probably play rw for them

Didn't Martin Odegaard waste away in RMA?

@@flickzy981 "Acting like he gonna play when Madrid have Modric, Kroos, Bellingham, Camavinga, Tchuomeni, " It is not acting ... Arda is going to play. A good player will gain his starting spot ... Imagine [jude, arda] in the mid-field ... their output will be better than [pedri, gavi] ... This season, Jude alone has 21 G/A ... better than Pedri and Gavi combined at 18.

Arda is glad he missed this same level of opportunity and respect 😅

@@danielwalker1538ye but he won’t get game time THATS the problem

He won’t get enough game time

i care bro

We care just because you can’t be As good as. Him you don’t have to be toxic he’s been threw a lot and MLS no farmers league Underdogs Cincinnati are doing well so Michael194 you don’t know football do you fix your football IQ also we all care. I suggest you delete your comment if you don’t wanna get back clash:).

Don’t be a douche bag Michael

"So he's shining in a farmer's league? " Don't use "farmer's league" to belittle a player's achievement ! Well, people said the same of Haaland ... playing in farmer's league ... Haaland went to EPL, became the top scorer with 36 goals ... and the top EPL scorer in a single season in EPL history. Messi went to "farmer's league" PSG ... Did he performed as well as he was in Liga ? ... with Mbappe, Neymar in his team. Two consecutive UCL failed campaigns ...

@@novice4648 what achievement does he have? He went clubbing too much and lacked discipline so barca got rid of him. There's nothing else too it

"If he played in the premier league he would be trash" Well ... some people said the same of Haaland ... But Haaland is the top scorer for EPL ... 36 goals ! The most goals scored in a single EPL season ...

Stop it. EPL is overrated. Puig would actually be among top midfielders. The premier league has a lot of midfielders that lack technical quality but a bunch of muscles. Only a few top teams have quality midfielders. That huff and puff football they play in the EPL is the reason why the intelligent Spaniards have always dominated English teams.

Also just because he's playing in the Mls and performing well there doesn't mean he wouldn't perform well else where. Yes his time at Barcelona was a flop but it have other players who didn't start they career off with a bang and still manage to redeem themselves. Relax let the boy shine nah 😂

Isn't the same thing said about Messi?
