Y’all really don’t understand how important Frenkie is to Barca. Those who truly understand football know Frenkie is one of the best midfielders in the world rn. Not even Rodri is as press resistant as Frenkie. There’s a reason we always look for him when playing out of the back. For a player like Frenkie, stats don’t matter but of course that all that most of you look at nowadays.
Yeah sure Mr fidget spinner is definitely one of the best midfielder in the world😂.
Thing is what is frenkie best position this has been the problem since we signed him for huge money and he has not proved his worth that money by the way if an offer come for him sell him I mean we clearly wanted to in 2021 and now he is injury prone if that means we sacrifice de jong for a top defensive midfielder why not
@@TheExclusivemindset fools like you are exactly the type of people I’m talking about. Go watch some more football before speaking kiddo.
💀
Frenkie isn't even close to Rodri. Rodri is way more versatile and teams fear him. He is the core of Spain and City. Frenkie can be easily replaced by a single pivot DM as we have plenty of great midfield options like Gavi, Pedri and Gundo.
Frenkie's ball progression differs from other players because of his higher press resistance as a lone player. He also progresses the ball directly from the goalkeeper and bring the ball forth to the midfield or attackers. This is not something that Olmo, Nico, or Balde can do.
Frankie and Pedri should both drop deep in build up but be near the box when the opposition is pinned back.
@1237barca could also play Gavi next to him once he's back. Both great options imo
What exactly is his ball progression? Dribbling past one player then mostly making the wrong decisions. No football iq at all even after 6 yrs under a master like busquets is shameful. Don't even talk about press resistance because we are ppl who know press resistance after watching prime barca.

Is obvious that his covid wages are still gonna be paid. He was supposed to earn €15M/season, and he accepted €2M/season for 3 seasons to help the club. It would be disgusting to ask him to give up that money and move to another club. He's a really good player and Barcelona should renew his contract, considering the current one ends in 2026 and he is a world class midfielder, there's no one like him on the market.
World class??
@@brenaxquiny8639 I think so, but I guess that's subjective.
frenkie was always great for barca, but was named a flop as he was playing at a time where barca were struggling
+ He is quite injury prone.
De Jong is a brilliant player who's been plagued with injuries and average Managers systems..I know we need money for other signings but let's do anything to keep De Jong.. Flick is a champions league winner and a great Manager.. He'll flourish under him
Yall said this everytime a new coach came and he looked just as Ass
Average managers don't win the league in their 1st season, you gotta stop with the disrespect and have realistic expectations.
@@fatih8053 de jong is sadly a flop. Too much money went into him and he didn't even turn out to be half the player Valverde or Jude are for Madrid
Nah its not about being average , de jong isnt a barca style player thats all, the team doesnt require his skill set as much
@@da_stoof4347 that's because we haven't had a world class manager. this was xavi's first european job.
i’m *SO* glad u made this video brodie 💯🙏🏾
players like FDJ don’t come around often. we should value what we have w him fr. & ye, his injuries have been a problem, but that only started last szn. i’m confident the second half of the new season he’ll be back to his best and be performing like crazy game in, game out *in his actual natural position* 🙏🏾
Gavi isn't injury prone, he has only one injury since playing for Barcelona
True, but it’s a bad one. It is not clear that he will ever be able to perform the way he used to. Fingers crossed
Gavi got injured for a season, that's surely injury prone 😂
@@whooptyloop1865nonsense
He got injured in a friendly for his national team doing a bad landing.
Injury prone means constantly like Neymar or Pedri. Gavi Injury record is on the internet go look it up, he's always available.
@@whooptyloop1865 that's not what injury prone means...they have to get injured often to be called that
@@goffperuXavi had an ACL too, he wasn’t injury prone. More recently, Wirtz had ACL too
tbh, I think Raphinia proved his worth whereas Ferran hasnt really done that and if Barca do finally sign Nico I think it would make more sense if Ferran was dropped and just alternate between Yamal, Raphinia, Nico and maybe Ansu
I agree that Raphinha was better but I don't think he would go anywhere, would probably put his foot down while Raph probably has some really enticing options
Raphinia will go to the premier league if it is a choice between that and being the 14th or 15th man. Fermin Lopez will need a lot of playing time as well.
Selling Ansu is wise
Raphinha is our best long shots taker and freekick taker...keep him
i think we should keep ferran fati and raphinha and get rid of vitor roque and lewadonski get a new striker like alvarez and lw like nico williams
I think they should still go for Merino. He and Frenkie could make a good double pivot.
If they can somehow find the money, absolutely.
If the Nike deal goes through and we return to 1:1 then sure. The last year we won the La Liga with Xavi, we didn't have a solid left winger. We won with defense. Especially with a holding midfielder like Busquets. Yes, Merino won't have the same ball vision as Busi but he is still a holding midfielder with the highest number of duels won last year.
This obsession with attackers is unnecessary and will only overcrowd the midfield.
No money for Merino lol
Lowkey we should maybe have a thought to get Van de Beek
Honestly would be ok getting rid of Gundo and bringing in Merino. I didn't see enough from Gundo and it's the last year of his contract
For frenkies patience with this club he deserves everything he wants
hold up this night sounds stupid but can't Barcelona sell an old player to Saudi Arabia and use that money 😭????? Or I can't work like that
I’m so glad you made this video. I love frenkie and think he’s one of our most important players. The guy does everything. It sucked to see so many Barca fans complaining that he’s making to much money and should go. The poor guy has been shifted to a different position every time a new manager comes. From cb, deep lying midfielder, most advanced midfielder, double pivot. The guy doesn’t get given the time to adapt to a position and exceed in it. Hope he stays for many years ❤
He was phenomenal at Ajax but no Barca manager ever figured to maybe have him do the same thing, or call Ten Hag if they can't figure it out
This is the whole ideology of Barca…. Players should be able to cover each other’s positions lol
i dont fking care, this guys is getting paid the most and delivering nothing which is the truth. He feels like a flop to me. Can't defend nor score or assists but just coz of his short passing ability, fans wanna keep him coz they think he's like johan cryuf. Yall are literally too obsessed with him maybe coz he's good passer but that;s literally it, honestly i dont even feel confident with him in the pitch compared to players like barella or valverde
After Euros we just want to buy Spain players
Minus Morata, Caravajal, Cucu, Laporte, Le Normande and Unai. 🤩

You look like De jong with black hair
He's Je Dong
Bro because de Jong and him are cousins😭
Not at all
@Maggpiee very much actually
de jong making an entire youtube channel to defend himself
Bro's been mewing🙏😭😭😭
Xavi's completely failed at Cruyff's #1 rule: build your team around your most creative player. despite the injury, Frenkie was fit enough to prove he could do what he's great at - being an explosive libero who dominates pressing forwards and creates through the middle. Xavi tried to make him play like Busquets in a team that looked like Pep's.
De Jong should stay because he is an exceptional player. I also don't see who would buy De Jong for 80mil given his wages, they'd probably look to pay $60m.
Then you were blind 6 months ago, Barcelona has a very poor midfield without de Jong. The amount of games he was not there and Romeu was playing was a clear highlight to the fact Barca needs a player like de Jong who is very hard to disposses, has great control and pace and actually works quite well within the team. Because the amount of shit passes, losing the ball over and over from Romeu just shows how important that is and can turn the tide in a game. You are also blind to the fact the kid played basically everything up to last season when his ankles finally gave up after repeated almost targeted hits. The Netherlands national squad suffered from missing him in the Euro's having only a half as strong midfield with him not there. The things why Barca didn't work last season was that in the defense missing Araujo and having Christensen for some games as CB wasn't ideal at all either. Balde and Kounde were good, somewhat shaky avail. of Pedri and Gavi, Gundogan who seemed to struggle way more in finding the net compared to his City days (and even then it wasn't exactly every game made goals). Ferran Torres is in my opinion a very very low quality striker where his goals are mainly from open chances or static situation (a free kick now and then) but barely creates anything for himself. Replacing him would be on the top of my list but if you marry into Barca I guess Barca is stuck with you. Yamal is a highpoint of the season, the kid is amazing. Raphinha was a little better in shape than previous seasons but he's still a quite egotistical player with more drive for making goals and creating them than the bloody striker Torres. But atleast there's Lewa. Lewa is getting old but tries his best, sometimes it kinda reminds me of the Zlatan Barca days where a guy who's maybe just a little too tall for Barca. Still see him rather than Torres tho. Vitor Roque shouldve been the replacement for Torres but I don't know what the deal is with a 30M buy and never fielding him and when he gets fielded the kid is so frustrated he just gets cards. Maybe with Faye and Olmo things are replenished a bit. A lot of returnees from loans. Anyway it doesn't take a German coach to see that De Jong is a staple asset in the Barca team and that is exactly why Xavi basically played him whenever he gets the chance. So why replace him? Buy a hot young striker who isnt aging, insane or married in? have Gundogan as a sub for Olmo, play Pedri or Gavi next to De Jong or both against weaker teams and give De Jong rest. Sell Christensen and Lenglet and buy a real CB that's a bit more experienced than Faye so you have a double CB option.
Managers need to trust de jong and give him the space to run the ball up the pitch, that way he’ll return to his 2019 form
I am Dutch and a Feyenoord fan, before anyone calls me biased.
1st. Frenkie de Jong is the second-best progressive number 6 in the world, just behind Rodri, and that's mostly due to the Guardiola + Injury factors. Place him at Spurs, and they could be real title contenders in the Premier League, since they are in need of a progressive 6 of his quality, it is why he is constantly linked to Spurs to begin with. (Again, Feyenoord fan, I really don't like Spurs either)
2nd. Frenkie is the third highest paid player, yes. That's because Barcelona couldn't pay his original salary during their financial struggles, and Frenkie accepted a deal that he would be paid that sum later. That's on Barcelona, not Frenkie. (Glad you mentioned)
It is always funny to read or hear people complain about De Jong, when even Xavi himself said on multiple occasions that he is (one of) the most important player in their team. That is not without reason. He is a key to a ton of solutions in pressing and even in his years at Ajax, he was the player that brought them as far as the UCL Semi-Final (which sucks) and was often used as a CB in the Eredivisie, because Ten Hag could use him to play out of the defense and basically had room for an extra midfielder on the pitch.
37 million euros is absolute bullsh1t. He has taken salary cuts numerous times. Idk where u got that info from brother
His wages from covid are getting paid rn.
So you've completely ignored him saying he didn't get an exact amount, but it ranges between 25 and 40?
And the number of times he chose to keep it simple and just use 25?
@@kngLazzar The news from an ‘upgraded salary’ due to Covid has been a rumour started by the spanish media. I’m dutch myself, we know Frenkie. He aint getting no salary raise. Its staying the same. Legally he is not even allowed a raise that big
I knew the real sociedad squad was talented but it's crazy to me that half of their starting eleven are rumored to leave
I hope this video ages well. I really like Frenkie and it was sad seeing fans asking to be sold
To add to your point, Frenkie is considered without contention the Dutch Star player and even with Dutch Bias tinted lenses ez to pick out why. He's not an assist or goalscoring machine but he will make space by dribbling and find that difficult to find a player in position to make a good assist. He will hold the ball and will rarely squander possesion due to his very high press resistance
Great points in this video.
FdJ is unfortunate to be misunderstood by many fans, misused often by coaches because of his adaptability... since moving to Barca, he hasn't truly been used as the DLPM that he is next to a more conservative ball winning partner.
Then all the noise about his salary as if he did that himself.
I hope he stays and that Flick puts that ball winner next to him to truly allow FdJ to flourish.
where’s the barcelona career mode
11:40
bro talked rationally for ten mins about decisions only to remind us that our club doesnt make rational decisions
FC Barcelona is the worst employer ever
"Now what do we know about Barcelona - they don't make rational decisions"💀
Barca is horrible when it comes to respecting players, managers and legends. Players who love the club and chose to be either paid later to help the club (which is already insane) and then leak the salary to force him away with hating fans. Club legends like xavi treated like shit, Koeman got the mission impossible and the club blamed everything on them. This is not the club kids fell in love with when younger.
One of my favorite players and if you were actually a barca fan de jong should be playing in the role that koeman put him when he was in barca De Jong was the only one who belped messi during those times
I am really surprised that Barcelona wants to sell one of the best midfielders in the world.
As bad as the frenkie contract is he is a one of one player. Not many players in football right now are of a similar profile to him at his age.
now barca are collecting money from their kitchen, next they are gonna open onlyfans accounts 😭😭😭😭
He was a Maestro, a Modric at Ajax. I hope he will get over this childhood crush: Barcelona💔
I understand, but he truly has more potential. When i see him play i feel he’s holding back. This still Uncut Gem should’ve polished himself at Old Trafford and get his true Champions League form back
Raphinha will also refuse a transfer just like Frenkie de Jong. I would sell Ferran but he doesn't wanna go too so if Barca needs to sell players to raise money it gotta be Oriol Romeu, Eric Garcia, Inigo Martinez and probably Julian Araujo if they plan to bring back Cancelo. I would even sell Gundogan before trying to force de Jong out of the club. Frenkie is a briliant midfielder and barca has no alternative for him. Barcelona has a lot of CBs (Christensen, Cubarsi, Kounde, Araujo) and if they are bringig Olmo i don't see Gundogan playing as much as the last season. If was up to me i would bring a ball winning midfielder next to de Jong instead of Dani Olmo for 60mln but Barcelona seems to be fucused on attackers again and ignore defence. Considering none of the current attackers wants to leave the club i don't think thats the right move. So in conclusion i would get that "mistery" unnamed winger from Atletic, defensive midfielder and a full back.
Anyone saying Frenkie should be sold is an idiot. Barcelona players in general were injury prone and the previous season they were fit and destroyed La Liga winning by 14 points if I'm not mistaken.
Frenkie is a genius
I’ve been thinking that you would make a video on this. Great video ❤️💙
I totally agree with you. Those who want FDJ out know nothing abt the economics of the deal and also knw nothing abt football abd how a worldclass midfielder c!n change the dynamics of the game.
He's good ive never denied that. We just can't afford him if we want to actually build a team.
20M gets you Merino...
barca fans since 2000, replacing FDJ with Merino? it's like Arsenal replacing Fabregas with Arteta and Cazorla. And where did that got them eventually: UEFA Cup participation instead of UCL. Wenger got booed enough that he chose to leave. Merino can pair with FDJ but not replacing him
Believe me guys he is the perfect no.6 for Hansi’s playing style he can carry ball and he is press resistent and yes he is been bad because of injuries but now its a differnt story under flick so… guys be patient and wait for his recovery and most importent there is no other player like Frenkie in the world right now with this caliber and Hansi will unlock him to his fullest❤️🔵🔴
Where is this stat about Frenkie being behind Mbappé and Erling? He’s paid more than Mbappé next year.
Fdj's runs are amazing but he wasn't afforded that freedom before due to lack of dm that can cover ground. Plus attacks came through the wings rather than the middle means he was expected to progress via quick pass ( quicker than making a run ). But with hansi crowding the centre i think he'll be a great tool.
He's a great player and I gave confidence that Flick can get great performances out of him.
He should be paid his deferred wages properly
I don’t think we should sell him. it’s not Frankie’s fault that we have been hiring terrible coaches… Ronald Koeman was the one who brought the best out of De Jong. Hopefully,Flick can bring the best out of him.
As a United fan I’m really happy we got Casemiro instead even if he’s “fallen” off he still galvanized that midfield to a trophy. Not something I could say for Frenkie who would have replaced Pogba on the stretcher
Well we ended up with some silverware (Cubarsi and Yamal)
I'm throwing out a really harsh opinion. Frenkie is not great at progressing the ball. He may dribble an overcommitted opposing player from time to time but really doesn't do anything with the ball. Gavi, Pedri, Gundo, Fermin are all better than Frenkie at the moment. He's really not linking play like he did at Ajax.
I stand by you. They keep saying he needs a good manager or good teammates to excel but De Jong has played with Messi, Busquest, Vidal,Rakitic, Suarez, Griezmann n co. What more of teammates does he need again.
I even remember when fans were cry for him to be played as a pivot. Man was a$$ in that position.
They also said he needed to be played with an actual DM to unlock his skills but which DM is better than Busquets. De Jong sucked playing alongside him. All he knows is do 360 degrees and slow down counters.
Now we are hearing he needs a world class coach like Flick?
I will be here.
@@naafiqmashud3890 by ur logic and the Griezmann example u used as a good teammate, so why didn't Griezmann shine too in Barca when he played with that South American Magnificent Duo? What more of teammates does Griezmann need to shine?
Oh finally...this is what I have trying to make people understand...De jong can be a great replacement for what Hansi Flick did with Kimmich at Bayern...Frenkie's long passes are insanely good and he is the perfect man who can transport the diffensive game to counter attack!Though he is causing a big financial issue we still need him!
Barcelona, once the epitome of football brilliance, has faced a series of struggles in recent years that have tested the club’s resilience and its fans' patience. The days of tiki-taka mastery under Pep Guardiola, when Lionel Messi, Xavi, and Iniesta turned football into art, seem like a distant memory. Since then, the club has been through a rollercoaster of managerial changes, financial woes, and disappointing performances on the pitch.
The club’s financial troubles have been no secret, with astronomical debts and questionable signings putting them in a precarious position. High-profile departures, including the heart-wrenching exit of Lionel Messi to PSG, were emblematic of the club's struggles. The team's defense often looked as porous as a sieve, and their attack lacked the spark and creativity that once terrified opponents. The famed La Masia academy, once a conveyor belt of world-class talent, seemed to have lost its magic touch, producing fewer stars capable of leading the team back to glory.
Despite a resurgence under Xavi's leadership, marked by moments of brilliance and the emergence of promising young talents like Pedri and Gavi, consistency has been hard to come by. Each step forward seems to be followed by two steps back, with the team sometimes stumbling in crucial matches and struggling against opponents they once brushed aside with ease. The weight of expectations at the Camp Nou remains heavy, as fans yearn for a return to the days when Barcelona reigned supreme, both domestically and in Europe.
The club has tried various solutions-new signings, tactical shifts, and a renewed focus on youth development-but the perfect formula remains elusive. The sense of nostalgia for the "Golden Era" lingers in the air, and it’s clear that something-someone-is still missing.
After all the tactical tweaks, big-money signings, and managerial shifts, perhaps the only thing Barcelona really needs now to solve their problems is... Antony. No, not the Brazilian winger, but simply someone to put the “Antony” back in their “Anthony-thing” that made them unbeatable-a magic spark, a little pizzazz, and that indefinable flair that turned good teams into great ones. Because let’s face it, all they need is an Antony to make the club better than ever before!
I love Olmo but we definitely do not need him with Pedri, Gundo and Fermin in that position
The statement at 03:33 isn't entirely accurate. Ajax didn't technically sell Frenkie de Jong directly to Barcelona. Instead, they sold him to an intermediary company for slightly less than what Barcelona was offering. This allowed Ajax to receive the full payment upfront rather than in installments over several years. While Ajax has completed their part of the deal, Barcelona still owes the intermediary company a certain amount of euros.
Honestly they are making the same mistake as they did with the Arthur melo. Frenkie is only one in the team good enough to dribble past opposition lines. Also gavi is injured. If pedri gets injured again we are out of options. Instead of buying younger players, we are selling them. If this is not enough just consider his loyalty with barca. Man has taken pay cuts due to financial condition of the barca and they are still trying to screw him.
So Barca not being able to pay Frenkie, therefore delaying his payday making it what it is this year, and then it’s all Frenkie’s fault? Lol only Barca is to blame for this, even playing him when he was already injured, causing even more damage which withholds his comeback.
The question isnt whether FDJ is important to Barca or not. He clearly is. The question is whether his wages justify his availability and quality of performances and consistency we have seen from him. To me, the answer to that question is no. The best case scenario is that he is willing to lower his wages, which he has refused previously. So that begs the question of whether he should stay or not.
Gavi is not injury prone. He’s had just one serious injury. Before that, he was probably the most consistent player
Whoever doesn't see Frenkie's impact on the team each season is either dumb or hates him, there's not a player itw who has his quality, we have gem in our team and we've been disrespectful to him in all these years
I would say we get rid of Lewa and Ferran.
Give Ansu en Roque a chance to prove themselves and afterwards, we can decide who doesn't fit the picture.
De Jong has to stay!
Frenkie Is Great a player even maybe one of the best at what he does, but the main issue with frenkie is that he hasn't been able to improve in barcelona and learn to play new positions.
In addition, Casado just joined the squad and he plays very similar to kimmich…
Marc Bernal is awesome too…
This just goes to show how much of a hole is left in Barca's tactics after the departure of Sergio Busquests.
I don’t under why we don’t sell Gavi, Pedri, etc. we have so many young talents that can be used to pay off our debts and they’d still be in their prime at 25 when they sign back on free transfers
It's not really a mess - the plan is to get both Williams and Olmo and let the youngsters take care of the back end.
It would be a huge mistake to throw that on Casado or Bernal at this stage in their careers. They are promising, but need time to adapt.
u should start a podcast bc i feel the videos u make abt barca are too short they should be sm longer🙏🏼🙏🏼
Frenkie is too important for us and I swear why do some of us Barca fans keep forgetting how shit Ferran is like I’d rather have him go than Raphinha
Great content, would love to see De Jong reach those Ajax days again, maybe he can under Flick.
As a Madrid fan, sell Torres, keep de jong, Nico will take left, I know this is a bad opinion but lewandowski is too old and not producing and he’s gotta get sold as well, that leaves a DECENT amount of money to get someone like olmo, but that wouldn’t make much sense considering the midfield is already doing alright if de jong avoids injuries. Maybe a new 9 would make sense, and I don’t think olmo fits there. If they produce enough money a depay transfer would be amazing, but I’d have to check what 9’s are good rn and are buyable options
I love barca but this statement floored me: "barca doesnt make rash decisions *recalls the massive debt hole they're in* 😂
yes Frenkie is a great ball carrier that doesn't mean he is not a good passer.He is a brilliant passer of the ball. Look at his games, his underlying stats of passing, it's top notch.He is defensively not a slouch either which most fans assume. His defensive stats is as good as Rodri.We just want to hate him for his wages which is not his fault imo.Most of the barca fans are in delusion that if fdj leaves, than all problems of barca will be solved and barca will be back to the glory, which is not true at all.
His injuries and form are completely irrelevant. Barcelona offered him the contract and they need to honor the contract. It's that simple.
If running with the ball makes a player amazing then Fede Valverde is 10x that. At least with Valverde he does much more than carry the ball forward he provides defensive cover as well puts in a good shift going forward where he scores and assists. The standards have really fallen at Barca where we hype up a player for doing the bare minimum (ball progression).
Under 4 different coaches, he hasn't shown himself well yet.
Tell me one better player since messi left?
Frenkie De Jong is fr an amazing player, surely we will win something this season
I’ve always liked him but that Barca injury problem ruins our players
Damn… It’s been a while since we had players of his calibre at Ajax…
Frenkie is one of the best players who can run with the ball from midfield..if he stays fit he can be the best midfielder..think flick will suit him
Even with the signing of Kylian Mbappe at Real!! Mark my words.. Frankie de Jong with Barca is going to show wonders especially this season!!!...
As soon as Laporta became chairman again, he tried to pester De Jong out the door through paid journalists, bots and actors (remember the "fans" calling him a dog after training?). Why? Because he didn't agree to lower his salary permanently or leave to Manchester United.
Meanwhile, every trainer called him a top professional and De Jong himself never spoke ill of Barca. He never had injuries and always played well before Laporta came in.
The constant begging by Laporta to lower his salary and subsequent bashing through Laporta's secret media companies didn't help De Jong's form. When Barca asked multiple times to pay him later, he agreed.
Why did Barca need the money? To "survive covid"? To "pay the stadium's gas and lighting bills"?
No. To be able to get players. Mediocre players or old players with zero worth when their contract is up.
And every time De Jong agreed.
Their only way of making money is to beg their players for a handout. Meanwhile interested players, like Nico, are promised gold mountains.
Barca went from being my favorite team to being the absolute worst.
I think there are a few errors here.
The first is the Gary Neville fallacy: no 'back pay' is owed to FDJ. He signed a new contract with a rising salary structure. The reason in his case may have to do, partly, with COVID-19 deferrals, but that's irrelevant. Lewa's contract has a similar structure. FDJ's also has a number of hefty bonuses that make it very expensive for the club in the final two year period. Anyone buying FDJ would step into FCB's shoes and would need to factor that into the price they are willing to pay or have the player agree to a new contract.
The second has to do with FCB owing Ajax money on FDJ in the next two years. I don't know how the original deal was structured, but FDJ was signed in 2019 on a five year deal, which would have expired in 2024. The years left to run on his current contract are due to his signing a new deal (in 2021). Even had FCB done a five-year deferred deal as they did with Ferran, this would now have expired. But the fact that the video wrongly uses the word 'amortisation' makes me think that the expensing of assets (players) over the term of their contract, a financial accounting question, is being confused with payment of their price.
To be honest raphinha said that if he leaves he wants to go to thr premier league and aston villa seems like a perfect place for him. They are in the ucl they are in the premier league and they just sold mouzsa diaby (also a right winger) to saudi arabia and they need a replacement liek they did with douglas luiz selling him to juventus and buying amadou onana
he should release the ball faster tho. it’s one thing to wait until u see an opening. it’s another to hold up play to a degree that u just stifle play
Frenkie will have to include long passing to his playstyle. We can't rely on Cubarsi alone we need someone in the doublepivot to do that (Frenkie).
Moreno and De Jong in the pivot next season , that’s all I want to see
I'm a simple man. I see new Robby Lou I click.
The reason why he is payed that much is because they still owed him 2 years worth of salary.
I just feel very sad when you really believe all the rumors about Barca signing people … they are out of money and they need to sell a lot of GOOD players to buy low prices
Getting Meri no after selling fdj is ridiculous.Merino is not a very quality player.He would be good alongsode fdj but without him he will be exposed.
i always wished de jong would leave, only because i loved the player and knew that he could be one of the best midfielders under a manager that fit his playstyle. i really hope hansi flick could bring out the best, especially with how important he views physical fitness
in hindsight i also think barca was the wrong choice for him.
Bro finally waking up
He’s getting paid less than Mbappe now. I’ve always thought he’s been underwhelming when it because clear that he couldn’t be the Busi replacement and play the 6
I just feel bad for Frenkie for being at Barca at such a poor time
I still think Frenkie would leave. My only fear is that he would leave as a free agent. Even if he decides to stay, would he reduce his salary? Remember he has only 2 years on his contract .
Can you make a video about Yamal's incredible Euro run and what it could mean for Barca especially if we're getting Nico? Love your videos man! 💙❤
What about de jong not signing a new contract and leave for free ?? Would we still have him if he leaves ? So what are we going to do ? He is a wonderful player but we xan play extremely well without him .
We have Casado and Bernal who doing very good in preseason
Schouten of PSV Eindhoven is somewhat the same player as Frenkie. But Frenkie has more potential and a higher toplevel. Schouten is unphased, discreet, although a little less, but way cheaper.
Check Zubimendi, he replaced Rodri on Euro's Final and did as good as the MVP of the torunament, he was the pivot which Xavi always wanted, anyways a lot of people inclunding me was and still very critical about Frenkie,he's one of the most payed players in the World,almost twice as Vini Jr and he's not perfoming at the recquiered level,however I think with Flick he can be awesome,he fits perfectly with flick style also he's not gonna leave anyways so I think this can be the year for Frenkie. Sorry for my broken english xP
Kimmich has "chemistry" with hansi flick. Bruh this is real life not fifa, not all germans are friends. Kimmich was one of the players that wanted Flick to be fired at bayern
robby appreciation👏👏
