Barça will surprise you
This discussion does not make sense at all…he was in atleti
You say it's not good enough [Depay, Braithwaite, De jong].
It's far deeper than that. It's ideological, even political too, and it's very old news and it's what has been happening in many clubs around Europe, eg Italy where performances by teams like AC Milan, Inter and Juve in the CL have been pathetic as a result.
As well as the insidious ideology and policies, it's also the growth of roles of non-footballing people like directors, agents, and even random journalists and pundits who are now making appearances for no other reason than to represent a group which we're told adds value.
Aúpa Atleti
Steve is very ironic ?
Why didn't he succeed with barca? He had a goal scoring mentality. Most barca players right now just look to not lose the ball. Most dont look to move the ball forward. Messi was the only player who was always looking for goals and moving the ball forward and was used to relying on himself. Antoine constantly looking to make runs and the ball gets passed back…barca as a whole has regain their philosophy and their goal centered mentality.
Barcelona management is made up of absolute clowns… Did they learn nothing from the transfers of David Villa and Suarez? Shithousery at its finest!
Boi really said Atleti are lucky to have the money?it’s called being financially responsable. No one said Liverpool was “lucky” to have the money from the Coutinho transfer. Double standards ?♂️?♂️
Last season stats are good
They should recall him after his loan or make the bid higher to 80-90 mill
What's up with bringing all these mediocre dutch players
Grizmen will score against Barca this year…
Luuk De Jong is a big game performer by the way.
If you've ever played, you'd know the team that you play for can absolutely change the way you play. His return with familiar friends will most likely boost his happiness. Athletico looks to be an attractive team
Its so hard to live as a Barca fan these days…
29? 21? 20? These numbers sound good smh hop off Griezmann
Who is Antonie Griezmann?
Aupa Atleti
Plus nobody else wanted him
He never helped barca anyway…
I'll never let him join my quarters club, griezmann is nothing,
