I want pin😊
Most if not all Barca fans want him to stay and want to see him play and start more games but Xavi seems to think otherwise
Saudi league is boring, especially commentators 😢
How does Xavi keep on picking Gavi or Ferran in front of this guy?!
Never been the same since his injury
The answer to Barcelona problems is moving on with Xavi , yes his a legend for the club but his now out of his depth. They are better off getting Julian Nagelsman . It’s similar to the Ole and United situation, the club like him but his not the guy to lead them into the future
Xavi seriously needs to be questioned about why Ansu Fati is not playing!!
He's made of glass. Good luck to any club who signs him.
Liverpool should buy him !
I'll tell you why, he's an average player. Was a mistake when given #10. Barca got a lot of average players and Ansu is Black in top of everything. But still, I think he had to start in front of others like Feran Tores. His injury never helped.
Ousmane Dembele has gone to PSG and the likes of Lionel Messi and Neymar never returned to the club and despite all of that Ansu Fati will most likely continue to struggle for first team football again this season. He’s dealt with so many injuries already in his young career but for the most part of last season when fit he was just a sub for a lot of the games Barcelona played he wasn’t injured Xavi believes that he’s not part of their best XI.
In preseason Ansu Fati looked incredibly sharp showed some confidence scored some nice goals and when he was on the pitch he felt as if he had a point to prove. In Barcelona’s first La Liga game against Getafe where they drew 0-0 he found himself in a familiar position at the start of the game which is the bench. This means that what he could spend another season on the fringes of the Barcelona first team and this is stunting his development not getting enough minutes on the field. I know he’s had injuries but still I think he’s a really good player and Ansu Fati is too good to be on the bench he’s still only 20 years old which is young but at that age it’s important to play and he’s not been doing that a lot lately and if he went to like let’s say the premier league he’d be able to get back in form because he would get more playing time elsewhere.
Never thought he was that good to begin with
When multiple Big clubs are going after a player, that tells you a lot about them. Xavi just doesn’t have faith in his young players. He prefers 30 year olds who have “experience” but can hardly even run
€200m player in a few years what is Gab smoking
He would be great at a lower EPL club like Brentford or Everton
He should try to go on loan to mid-tier team to lessen the pressure and more important role on the team for more time and experience
Xavi isn't experienced enough. You can see from his decisions on the field 😭
Ffp is a scam. Except for madrid.
They are forcing the player to leave.
The player always said he wants to become a Barça legend and he wanted to stay until he realized this:
Xavi don't play him enough.
Laporta wants to sell him to make great money they really need.
The father wants him to leave to get more playing time and develop (also he said several times his son is the next Messi, totally delusional)
And his agent is Jorge Mendes, who is well known for making tranfers like cupcakes.
Yeah, that's the best idea….''take out Lewandowski and put in Fati''…..what is that smooth brained take….Lewandowski is the reason Barca won LaLiga last year and will be the reason they win again this year and possibly the CL…..Ansu Fati is weak in the head and you can't fix that, he had the opportunity to play with Lewandowski and always chooses the selfish option instead of the right option, sell Ansu now before it's too late.
He should go to the Saudi League, he’ll help develop and make that league hotter than what it already is 🔥
Xavi hates Ansu, its that simple…a team that fought hard to keep a snake like Dembele, signed useless baggage like alonso, while also extending roberto's contract against fans wishes and is treating Ansu like this, it's clear he is not wanted and he is hated i dare say.
Jules or Gab, are u dumb?? Fati doesn’t deserve more playing time! Fati isn’t good enough
The problem strangely is Lewandowski. Ansu would be the perfect left forward with a false 9 in the middle. When he okays wirh Lewandowski they are both running into each other. Sane wirh ferran and lewa. This is why Ansu was so good when messi was here. Notice how well Ansu, ferran and yamal played together recently. Lewa is not going to be here for more than 2 years, Ansu can give us 10 more years. The club needs to get their priorities straight.
BIG chill on a 15 year old
