Re: Jérémy Mathieu: The ginger Abidal

The coaches have told Mathieu that he will have to leave if he doesn't improve. They want him to be more focused during the games. [sport]

Awful player.

How can he improve now he is on wrong side of 30 players rarely improve at that age imo generally the road is downwards from that point. I had soft spot for guy jst for that classico goal but its time to dump that ginger. Welcome mustafi!

I think he's the first player I've seen in Barcelona that doesn't really care enough to put out his potential. Other fail for whatever reasons, except not caring enough.

He actually comes across dumb. I mean a lot of footballers are a bit shallow but this guy strikes me as genuinenly dumb.

He just isnt a left back any more, its not hard to see that. When he plays CB he looks like a fair enough player, better than Mascherano certainly. But he doesnt have it in him any more to play leftback, especially not when he is asked to go forward and contribute too.

I dislike him profoundly. He was oustanding for some games last season, especially the 2-1 vs. Madrid, but he really sucks and should get the *bleep* out. We should have never spent 20 milion on a 30+ guy who is known to be a lazy pos.

Why? I can understand not liking someone but he hasn't done anything worthy of hate

by Donuts Tue Oct 13, 2015 11:08 pm

think the guy is getting far too much hate because of playing in LB.
that's not his choice to be there lol hes a good centerback and has been good for us there.
and cmon we all know why free cat dislikes him, hes not catalan and takes up bartras minutes.

by Myesyats Wed Oct 14, 2015 9:02 am

He's not a good CB either. Well, he can be if he's able to focus, but most of the time his clearances are rubbish and he makes that rookie mistake by leaving defensive formation and chasing after a striker which leaves huge gaps behind him.

Bartra was sublime against Luxembourg btw.

by free_cat Wed Oct 14, 2015 9:05 am

Yeah, I partly hate him because he takes Bartra's minutes (nothing to do with him not being Catalan, I'm not xenophobic), but also because he's a rubissh signing because all the things mentioned. Linetty gets it very right, Mathieu is poor. His clearences are the worst I've seen in a long time, thank god he has to clear little because we are barely into our box.

This guy shows how much the transfer policy of Barcelona sucks
