      Lewandowski in 1 month is only 1 goal behind memphis for all of last season. Definitely no competition there which may be a good thing. Memphis is better playing at the left wing and with a recovering fati and inconsistent ferran, he has his chances. He has showed moments of brilliance whenever he plays but sometimes gets ahead of himself trying to do more then he should. He will definitely get more minutes though especially in the next couple months though.

      He's an amazing player, and I am sure all the Barca fans love him, the only problem in our team is that it is very competitive in the front and the midfield. And no player gets to play more than 60 minutes right now.

      Memphis has a great mind set and determination. It’s not just football, in all jobs you need to fight for your place, it’s not like your employer hates you, they could fire you in a second. What matters is you know that you got the ability, and you fight for the position

      I'm a barca fan and I'm proud to have him in our line up. Key goals and movement off the ball as well as good mental and great technique. the complete package you need so that you don't have a weak area on the pitch after the starters are subbed off

      I think he is a great player, I'm not sure he suits Xavi's style especially with the defensive roles, I hope he proves that he deserves to be a Barca player and it is a new mental challenge to him.

      Memphis was always considered a dangerous player, compete with better players is the best way to improve, watch Lewy, learn from him, play with him and you will succeed. Good Luck.

      He can stay for 6 years total, 3 years proving himself, and when lewa leaves he might be able to hold that spot for his last 3 years if hes able to prove that to xavi. It takes time and patience.
