I think Barrios would help them alot, they need someone of his profile so they don't have to keep playing 3 CB's. He'd allow guys like Erickson and Alli to be a lot more free as double 8's.
It all depends, Alderweld was sacrificed last season and Vertonghen is injured and they both are out of contract by the end of the year. I would say if everyone is healthy all things considered those 2 are probably ahead of Davinson based on being more experienced and quality CB's tbh, but I'd be surprised if both of them are around next season.
Dembele is aging, gets injured a lot and just doesnt have the same sharpness he once had. He's hot and cold but he's the best they have at that position. Sissoko gives the ball away constantly and regardless of his size seems to always be in the wrong side of the ball. Dier is a brute on the field and just poor. Wanyama and Winks, I dont see enough minutes on the field of to judge but Winks is more of a forward thinking MF than what Barrios would offer. Bottomline, it's a spot they need to cover big time in order to compete at a higher level. They are still a side that attacks quickly and sometimes this leaves big gaps behind. They dont look confident on the ball this season at all. Surely not clicking the way they did last year.
um, most of those guys are different from Barrios. I think only Wanyama and Dier compare as pure destructors
Well, I didn't mean to say that all of them played exactly as pure 5s but that the roster looks crowded with people that can play as 5 or 5-8. I haven't seen much of the Spurs this season, but judging from their results even with so many players the spot looks shaky, as Kromekote pointed out. So, and it was my concern, there would be a space for Barrios and even a chance to become the starter.
En los pròximos dìas, la gente que representa a Quintero se va a reunir con los dirigentes de River para informarle que el jugador quiere dejar el club a fin de año.— FabiándeRamos (@FabiandeRamos) October 25, 2018
I know we are all riding his dick now but he was good for 5 games in pescara. Then spent 5 years being hyped for being 1 year younger then James. Finally because Pekerman had such a hard on for him and jams him down our throats he finally delivers maybe 2-3 games at the WC. Don’t count the last 4 friendlies as all B/C teams or scrubs. Is a super sub at times at River. Instead of keeping his feet on the ground. He like Na fo that lets go back to Europe where no team plays his style.

Would be cool but they will fire their coach soon Be cool at Napoli or AC Milan. Would love him at Inter but they already have that spot covered
I don't think Quintero would go to somewhere like China or MLS. He's well aware of how important and valued he is right now with the national team and how going to one of those places would mess things up.
This post is real special. Pekerman had a hard on for him? Like if you just throw guys into a world cup they are bound to get lucky and play great. Quintero is in the category as James and Valderamma for Colombian creative geniuses of our whole history, sure he's had some rough years but the guy was put in the Colombian team because of elite talent, he rightfully should want to keep testing himself and if I were him I'd want to prove that I can make it in a bigger league in Europe.
I don’t think Crzd is that far off. Quinteros time in Europe was disastrous to say the least and I do believe with the right style and coach that suits him he may do well. But that’s only if all the dots line up correctly. His style suits South American football and if he goes back to Europe and fails again he can lose another 2-3 years bouncing around all over again. If the formula works why try to fuxk it up.
Not true but I do expect our MFs to pass. I expect our leaders to not get red carded and give up 2 PKs.
