RE: Xavi has failed!

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I don't want to sound like a killjoy but it gladdens my heart to see De Jong and Kessie benched for Gavi and Pedri. Both of them could've joined other teams but they chose Barca, De Jong staying put despite being told in clear terms he needed to leave.

The only surprise here is the omission of Frank Kessie. That dude is a beast of a midfielder. Why swoop for him only to play Gavi and Pedri? Is benching De Jong political or tactical? Kessie and De Jong would've been a real handful for Madrid's midfielders yesterday.

I don't blame Frankie for not leaving, the club still owe him at that time and United looked like a team not ready to challenge for the titles yet.
He's paying the price though, so good for him.

Chelsea wanted Frenkie to replace Jorginho. They play Champions League football also.
