      Idk why but i believe Kessie and makelele have same type of playing style ( Work rate, Tackling, Strength etc.) Him coming for free is really a great thing. Christensen is good defender but he is that type of a defender who performs well when he is given command of defense . In tuchel's Reign that work was done by thiago silva , that is why imo he suffered. But when he was given that in conte's reign he flourished. A good signing, looking forward to see how he performs in xavi's system ♥️💙

      So excited for Kessie as he's more like Yaya Toure kind of player. Fast, box to box and physical. He can prove to be much better than Busquets as Busi is now old, can't run back fast and definitely not physical.

      Seeing him like that against vini and Benz doesn't mean he is a good player as a coach u don't play 3back against Madrid in the first place .

      ESPN FC hates Barca and La Liga with Passion 😂

      Not so long ago Real Madrid was considered “Finished and they can only compete for La Liga” but they surprised them with UCL win knocking out all their favorite teams like PSG, CITY, Liverpool and Chelsea 😊

      Now they still trolling Barcelona’s transfer window, wait till we sign all the players we linked to, see how pissed they become

      as a chelsea fan, christensen only became good after tuchel. he was absolutely awful before. poor decision making and we conceded too many goals because of his mistakes.

      just love this so called pundits or should I say jealous b*tches when they talk about Barcelona. Their hate is sure illogical also the hatred they show just shows how hardly they've been fked by Barcelona.

      I think Christensen just needs change of environment. Also he got semis with denmark last year. So there is a good player in him.

      Real Madrid, Man United sign completely unproven players from unknown origins for €100M

      Barca signs 2 free agents with proven credible records and prime form (winning Serie A, UCL).

      Kessie deal was done months ago, long before De Jongs situation. Old geezer doesn’t have an idea what he’s talking about

      Any player Barcelona signs, these ESPN pundits have a problem with him, but if Chelsea or Liverpool even City signs a player, he is a fantastic signing!!!.

      Comparing him to a midfielder or a striker is a completely insane assessment, he is a centerback defender and he fills that task to world star level

    36. Jonn Stewart on

      comparing kessie to yaya toure is literally just lazy and stereotypical , ya'll just see any black midfielder an the first thing comes to your mind is athletic , strong , wth is wrong with u people , he plays nothing like yaya toure , he was a better passer , dribbler , fnisher , free kick taker and had a penchant for big games , this is lazy journalism

    39. brincktv on

      Christensen is fantastic. And he'll excel in Barcelona, where the style of play will suit him way better than at Chelsea. Excited to see the lift Barcelona will get from this. Perfect match.

      All these pundits are doing is being honest. We wouldn’t have went for any of those players if we weren’t in our economic situation we need to stop acting like we’ve won the market or signed world class players unless we get kounde and lewandowski
