Kimmich isn’t even a proper CDM. Bayern are literally looking for a DM themselves because he cant defend himself and Goretzka has to cover for him. Even Bayern fans say Kimmich is not a six. That should be enough of a red flag to not sign him. Also, stats aren’t everything. If we go by data, then Dani Ceballos from RM is better than Pedri lmao. Look at Datamb Football.

I like how barca are right away going for a replacement DMF as well as main DMF. We suffered in that position too long.

We need Onana. A very Solid Cdm who knows how to tackle not just chasing shadows

Guido will replace O.Romeu rol as a sub we still going to sign a Starting Pivot

the way you say Güido Rodríguez cracks me up😭😭😭

This video made clear the longevity of busi at barcelona, a cdm was never a problem before this last 2 years and how really important is a cdm for the way barça want to play

Rodri would be a dream signing Imagine Pedri-Rodri-Gavi

yeah , need Joshua Kimmich. good luck in getting him. man city wants him as well. i would like to see Joshua Kimmich in Barcelona or Man City.

Imo Id take kimmich if frenkie were to leave. But looking at the team all of are midfield are small physically. Gavi is our smallest but the most aggressive and I think someone like amadou Onana would balance it more.

Doesn't kimmich always play with someone next to him?. Thiago and then Leon Goretzka, I am not sure if he can play as a lone pivot.

Very good video. Definitely gave me a new perspective of kimmich. Thanks for showing me some of his impressive defensive stats. And his quality may overshadow his flaws in the correct system.

Onana please 🙏🏾

Thankyou for your insights. It would be great to see the pivot graphs with an overlay of Busquets

I think if Barca can sell Frenkie for around 100m Euros or more and then take that 100m Euro Nike deal injection, it would be amazing since then we could sign Nico Williams, Bernardo Silva, Zubimendi or Kimmich, and then a LB like Davies (which would be genius because then not only r we denying Real Madrid one of the best LB's in the world but we would also be gaining him as a player.) we would easily be able to compete for all the trophies next year.

I can’t think of any top team in Europe that plays with a single pivot. Not Man City, not Madrid, not us, not Arsenal, not Bayern, not PSG, not Leverkusen… the list goes on. All of them have a CDM paired up with another player right beside them. The smartest thing for us to do is pair up De Jong with one of these CDM’s.

All eyes on kimich for that match against RM and their refeeres

Very intriguing indeed I must say!!!

We need a pivot with skills, commendable IQ and reliable. Someone who can win duels, retain the ball and distribute it desirably.

Kimmich doesn’t play DM for Germany, playing him with Gundogan as a 6 was a disaster for Germany, and he’s never been a single pivot. Why are we making the same mistake as we did with Frenkie?

Sounds good

Please make a video regarding the future of the striker position for us, I don't believe that we should still be relying on a 35, almost 36, year old striker despite his experience.

Bro onana to me is the player we need enough of the technical players, when Christensen playered in pivot we liked it cause of how his defensive nature gave the other midfielders confidence and freedom to attack so why not get onana, someone more physical and defensive than Christensen also faster too, this guy is like a taller gavi maybe not with as much technicality but guess what, the other 5 or 6 midfielders make up for that technical aspect

Throw all the money at Rodri he’s transform this team into the best in the world

tbh apart from being an economical solution, kimmich aint really solve many problems we have with fdj. we more in need of a more static type of dm you know. but well, if we really sell fdj (not that i want to, but fdj needs to leave due to his salary), then a replacement of fdj aint bad. kimmich is older than fdj so actually it means we would have less time with than we would fdj, maybe we aint really need a long term solution on the market, cuz we have talents with huge potential in the academy that aspire to rise to the first time in 2 3 years, in both static and dynamic pivot position, namely pau prim and marc bernal, respectively

It's not enough to want a pivot who looks good on paper, he needs to fit in the team. It's either a perfect cdm or wait for one.

I hate this club sometimes 🤣🤣🤣 Why tf is Kimmich number 1 on the list. Zubimendi wanted to play UCL with Sociedad and he did. Now is our chance to take him. He would cost the same as a 30 year old Kimmich and has a better profile for Barcelona DNA. The only 2 established players that could be partial replacements for what Busquets was are Rodri and Zubimendi but there is no way we’re affording Rodri. Onana is good but doesn’t match the profile we need. He’s another CDM we would need to accommodate with 4 midfielders to play the way we want to

1. HakanC or Bissouma #ToSupport 2. Khephren zubi is natural tbf kimmich works for XAVI !

What about Zubimendi?

We need a pure cdm and d name is zubimendi

Is simple if we can buy a world class as rodri dont sign any dm used the players we have dont waste money again

Guido r u kidding me 😂😂😂😂😂

The mexican Edson from West Ham i think he would be good

3:40 not true at all. All of our midfielders need to be comfortable holding the ball and need to be press resistant. Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta were such great midfielders not because the moved the ball fast but because it was almost impossible to pick the ball out of their feet. Guido can’t do that. And that’s one of the many reasons we NEED to keep FDJ. No midfielder is currently as comfortable as FDJ when it comes to holding onto the ball and being press resistant like FDJ. Not even Rodri. And btw the reason Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta all touched the ball quickly was due to their chemistry with each other and positional play. No matter who we get, we won’t get that anymore. They used to pass the ball and quickly move into a position where they could receive it again. There are no midfielders anymore that have that type of off the ball movement like they did. Now midfielders pass the ball and they think their job is done.

Rodri please 🙏

Is barca going to be a all-stars team 🤔🤔🤔🤔,barca media if you're really barca supporter and fan will you sign a 30years old kimmich who's not good as pivot to play for Barcelona as pivot for 80m?I remember pep at bayern, he says thiago order nix😅😅😅and tuchel said openly kimmich is not a pivot

Declan Rice has 7 assists and we have FDJ who runs in circles

If Frenkie stays, which is a big IF, I wouldn't mind a midfield with Kimmich, FDJ, Gavi and maybe Bernardo Silva if he signs. Yamal can be a Right Wing or a second striker and Balde or Cancelo can take the left side. Gundogan and Pedri can rotate in the interior positions with Gavi and Bernardo. Again IF Frenkie stays, IF Kimmich signs and IF Bernardo signs. I'm not completely sure any of those will happen and I'm more inclined to think they won't and Raphinha, Oriol Romeu , Ansu Fati, Guido and some other random player will have to do. Until it's confirmed we're on the 1:1 FFP rule, until it's confirmed there are negotiatons for important sales, until the deal with Nike is confirmed and until the payment from Barça Studios is officially received, I won't believe a thing.

The problem comes when Keeps on buying old players 😭

Rodri has stones/ake next to him

Let’s stop this whole kimmich insanity Let’s go in for a younger player, he’s not even playing a better football atm

Zubimendi needs to be the first choice.

Let's all watch him vs Madrid

To be very frank, Freenkie is good player but while playing he always seems like a new player trying to fit in..

It stupid to sell frank dejong because we say his not cdm and then buy joshua kimmik he the same to frank we dont need mid how can provide assist we already have players who can do that we need mid who can defend so that pedri,gavi,gundogan can concentrate on attacking

Bro kimmich doesn’t even play DM in Germany bro

we aint gonna talk about kimmich,s weird ass mustache

Can't comprehend the noise about kimmich. Perhaps, barca community is finally buying into the stupidity of tuchel. How can you possibly sign kimmich and still think of onana and zubimendi? That's absurd.

Kimmich is turning 30 this year. Unless he’s like for 10 mill, I wouldn’t want him.

Guido is pronounced gee-doh

Noooo. No more old second hand players st the end of their career. no No NO!

Kehren thuram is a better option imo

Now this is time to sell frankie,Inigo,romeo,eric garcia,

Why not go for Bruno Guimares from Newcastle 💁🏾‍♂️????

So lemme get this str8…… Bayern are most likely going to sell Zimmich to us for about idk maybe 30-40 mill then use that money to buy zubimendi….. aaaaannnddd for some reason we wanna buy zimmich over zubimendi? What??? Then again zubimendi doesn’t want to go to Barca

That bc they didn't buy rodri to come and tackle bro his there to control the position or the game stop talking abt a cm who can tackle this is not Everton or some middle table team let get a class in our midfield not even Christian is the right choice we cant progress with players like that

Kimmich will be the next Lewi. Thats not s good thing

Kimmich is a pivot??? He’s way better at rb

We don't need any liability. If we are not signing World Class then it's funny

Hello

Rodri defensive stats are so low because they usually pair him with a creative defender (stones) and he does the dirty work If we play a 3-4-3 with a back 3 of cubarsi, Faye and araujo at the back ,kimmich and christensen in dm, Kounde and balde/Cancelo as wing back with an attacking line of Bernardo ,lewandowski and Raphinha

Defensive wise… onana > kimmich. Bigger, faster, strong

Thomas Tuchel speaks pragmatism while Kevin is busy talking theory Tuchel won EPL, UCL and World Club World cup and is the current coach of Kimmick and Bayern and Kevin does not know where he gets his analysis of Kimmick from. That's sad

Bruno Guimaraes is the best replacement for sergio busquet

Guido is no rated player. He's not good. In this place we have to sign either Kimmich or Onana.But Onana is better as of now as he's still now 22 and have many years of future. But thinking of economy and experience, Kimmich will be great.

Exchange De Jong against Kimmich plus Davies

What we want is a "defensive midfielder" Someone that can defend, that's what we need first All this talks about Kimmich's offensive qualities are just empty talks if he cannot defend If that's the case Gundogan and Pedri can fit into that place perfectly cos they have good offensive abilities You trying to force Kimmich on us is just bs Trying to make us to overlook the fact that he can't defend by convincing us he will be better offensively Frenkie de jong is doing that already and he's way way way better than kimmich who's past his prime This is why I don't listen to your channel anymore, talkfcb is way better cos he is not biased

M. Cassado

Id funny people want onana some one who can even make the Everton starting 11 you want him to come to barca and carry the team to a next level shame shame on you all i dont think you people really care abt this club

As long as there is delusion there is hope

We want Onana. If we get kimich again after two to three years we have to look for another. Onana is young

I wish barcelona had Bellingham 😭

Enough abt kimmich. We need a more defensive DM not play maker times. Our creativity comes from the wings. We need a midfielder that can cover their mistakes. Thats why Christensen worked so well. Getting a more mobile, aggressive and possession player works better.

Anybody but romeu please🤦🏽‍♂️😂 worst player since semedo

Onana too gives you much in attack! I would prefer Onana cos he's gonna also release the pressure on Araujo cos Araujo is the only physical player we have

Rodriguez is mediocre player, we don't need "Romeu the 2nd" or something like so.

Onana please

Don’t get Kimmich, get someone who is a REAL cdm, pure defense, and fits the Barca style.

Let’s be clear on the fact that Kimmich is not good enough as a DM

Kimmich is crap! Your stats are misleading. I follow German Football for 40 years now and read all the Magazines and listen Podcast. No one in Bayern wants Kimmich on 6, Same for Germany and those Guys should know the best. Why do you think that Bayern wanted to buy Paulinha Summer 2023?! Why do you think that Tuchel is playing 18 year old Pavlovic on def 6 and Goretzka on 8 insteaf of Kimmich? Why do you think Nagelsmann is playing Leverkusen Bench warmer Andrich or brightons Gross on def 6 and Kroos 8? Kimmich plays right Back in Bayern and Germany! They ve tried Kimmich / gündo at Germany and got smashed by every Shit Team! In Germany they say Kimmich is running around everywhere and wants to be involved everywhere so His positional Play is very very Bad. Whoever plays next to him on Double 6 is the poorest Guy because He must Cover defensevely for Kimmich. And you want him to Bring AS Single pivot/Holding midfielder? I thought we need more height, muscles and athletism in the midfield, i mean Just Look at Kimmich, compared to him is Pedri a beast 😅 Don t know where this rumours are coming from but think Kimmich Agent Just knows how to Play with Media when His Client needs a new top contract 😂😂

oh come on.. sorry to say this but please stop dreaming that our player kimmich will go to your club.. with all due respect.. Barca can’t afford him and he is happy here 🤦🏻‍♂️

I took the time to watch Onana and i don't see the attraction. Other than being bigger and stronger, he isn't much better than Romeu in football IQ IMO. We have that in Christensen already. We should look elsewhere.

Gundogan/pedri/gavi/kimmich/fermin and frenkie does sound good.

Unfortunately Xavi will bring in another midget like Pedri and Gavi. We need some tall, well built players in the middle. Like Busquets, Rodry, Onana, Zubimendi, Guimares. Kimitch is another midget besides that he is almost 30 years old. I will take Olmo any time in front of Pedri and Gavi. Isaks or Mesihno too instead of Lewandowski and Torres. I will lend Roque for a year to any team where he can play first 11.

Well Kimmich is a midfielder, Christensen is a CB. Thats why Kimmich is a better midfield player all around.
