Very nice praises from xabi. But my question is why is he not even on the bench in the last two games? Is he injured? The hell.
They win their next match they win the league. I wanna say that means he'll play a lot more when they secure the title but I have a feeling Xabi wants them to keep the streak as long as possible.
But even his praises didn't sound like he was saying he's a very good player, nice words but no evidence he is ready to play him. I think once they've wrapped up the title is going to be the decider, Puerta needs to be given games and needs to take his opportunity and then let's see. If he's not given significant game time the writing is probably clear, and if he doesn't play very well that's probably going to reinforce Xabi not playing him. Hopefully he plays and plays well.
You would think he would get minutes with them splitting their focus on the domestic Pokal Cup, Bundesliga and the Europa League. He has to be rotated in some time. Maybe once they clinch the Bundesliga he will be thrown a bone and hopefully makes most of his opportunity.
Possibly. But winning three Trophies should be more important than going undefeated. I mean , sure he can accomplish both feats but if he rests some players it may help his chances at all three Trophies.
They were up by 3 goals dominating the game and they still wouldn't sub him in while only 30 minutes in the game left. Like what does he have to do if he's purely gonna be on the bench? Even winning the league with a 5-0 win today he has to do something to get Xabi to play him some minutes.
They have a handful of games left and have the pressure off their shoulders. Hopefully he gets minutes now as they focus on winning the other two trophies.
League tied up, Xhaka out and didn't get a single minute today. Sorry to say it but he should start looking for at least a loan for next season.
Guys he was actually subbed in. But at the 83rd minute sadly. At least it's something after so much time.
Unfortunately hence I asked lol. I could buy from a third-party but I tend to always order directly if possible.
Came in again at the 80th minute. Given that they're about to have 1 league match and 2 cup finals within the span of a single week. I want to be optimistic that he's either gonna start in their last league match or gonna be used as a sub in 1-2 matches. I do think on the first because they will prioritize making their best players as well rested and him among other players will be needed to lighten and balance the load.
Was not subbed in for their last league match of the season. Think he'll be subbed in for one of the cup finals?
He wasn't subbed in and they lost their undefeated streak. Still a good run tho. Hopefully they'll at least win the domestic double.
Dude wasn't even on the bench. He 100% needs to get playing time next season and he won't get it with this club currently. At least he has won the domestic double.
