Raphinha as the best Barca player is crazy
They didn't even mention the actual best player, which is Araújo
@@tharcisse7103I agree if where takings about pase season but no bro cmon this season yamal has been there best player if you don’t think so then you have not been watching Barca games this season it’s that simple
@@tharcisse7103is Gündoğan
16 year old Lamine Yamal been outperforming raphinha😂
not even his mom would have picked him
Raphinha over Lewandowski, Gundogan and Ter Stegen is wild
He’s a Leeds fan, don’t blame him 😂
Lewandowski hasnt been that great at Barca tbh. Other two defo deserved a shout over both Yamal and Raphinha
@@neevshah9311 Gündogan has been amazing for them
If you actually watch Barça, you'd know Araújo is their best player
To me its 100% Gundogan
Raphina ahead of Gundogan is outrageous.
this season it should probably be Lamine Yamal
& ter Stegen & araujo
Most Barça fans would say Araújo is their best player
I think they only said that because Raphina played in the premier league
So is Saka for Arsenal. He never shows up in big games. Our best players are Saliba and Rice. The discussion should be between the two.
I’m an Arsenal fan. It’s not Saka. It’s either Odegaard or Rice. If not either of them, I may even choose Saliba ahead of him.
100%
I agree. I'd sooner lose Saka over Rice or Odegaard
Eh, I think it's Raya.
Agreed, I get the English player bias but if we look since January. Odegaard has been incredible and all of a sudden we are winning so well again
Gundogan has been pretty good for Barca as well, but Lamine Yamal being the face of our club at 16 is just unbelievable.
Purple patch. Great talent but rating him over gündogan, lewandowski or ter stegen is crazy
@@m1ck244purple patch? He’s 16
@@Deathmare235 so a 16 year old can’t overperform for a period of time?
@@m1ck244 rating him over lewa and ter stegen? Tell me prior to 2024 what has lewa done? All due respect to my glorious king but lewa has defintely not been better than yamal and neither has ter stegen since he was injured for a lot of the season.
Proper order should be:
1. De jong- Gundogan
2. Gundogan- De jong
3. Cancelo
4. Yamal - Araujo. Also its unfair to call yamal's performances a "purple patch" when he has been doing it in practically every game he starts for barcelona. The reason u may have heard him die down some part towards the end of 2023 was due to the little minutes he got in the timeframe. He is by far the team's best-attacking option in the front three.
@@arnavmote9546 ok for this season only it’s fair to put yamal over lewa but as a player in general it’s a crazy statement. I’d still take many other players (like you listed) over yamal tho
Raphinha is not even top 5 for FC Barcelona. What a ridiculous "football expert"
I think it was more of to show appreciation for him and especially on sky sports talking about a player who was so amazing for his team
Tbf he only did it cause he played for Leeds also all the others were good
Who called him a. Football expert he’s a football fan calm down bro Jesus Christ
I am shocked that how underrated Ter Stagen is. Literally one of the best keeper in the world. Without him Barca wouldn’t be in top 5 in la liga.
Arsenal support, I’d deffo say Odegaard over saka personally
Bro our fan base worship saka every move
@@FreeParteytbf he’s the star boy of the club
@@Deathmare235 why though? You think he’s better than Odegaard, Rice, Saliba or Gabriel this season? Even just looking at talent, is he better than Jesus?
@@FreePartey Talent wise i would take saka over anyone but odegaard single handedly lifts the team up when we are out of attacking ideas. He is the main reason we beat porto
@@syedasadhaider4677 I know they’re different positions but you think Saka more talented than Rice and Saliba? Durability aside I think Jesus is more talented than Saka. He has a better touch, I trust him 1v1 against bigger defenders, more unpredictable. Saka a better finisher than him though
3 out of 8 are English 🏴 players talk about bias 😂. Saka has done nothing for Arsenal this campaign. Gunners should be on their knees thanking Odegaard.
Are you trying to say that Bellingham, Kane and Saka aren’t 3 of the best players in world football? How is it biased when Kane is breaking records, Bellingham has scored in high pressure games and Saka has been carrying arsenal for the past couple of years
Odegaard goes missing in big games. Arsenal have ballers all over the pitch these days. I'd actually say it's Raya... after a shaky start he's been immense.
I agree with every pick except Barça. Even not at his best, Lewandowski has topped the stats for goals, goals + assists, and nearly the top on goals per 90 as well. Incidentally the highest goals per 90 on the team isn’t Yamal or Raphinha, but Torres. They’re just off on this one.
Same. But i would say its Gündogan for Barcelona
Find it mad that neutral fans always jump to Saka being our best player. Sakas a top player but Odegaard and Rice are both clear of him, you could even argue Saliba and Gabriel
It’s really not that mad. Only Rice is clearly ahead of him but the rest definitely have an argument, but Saka is definitely up there
Hardly, Ode doesn’t do enough consistently. Saka and Rice are Mr. Consistency
you know ball
@@NewWorldOrderFAIL Think we may be watching different teams. Saka has consistent numbers but his all round performances have been up and down all season. For me Odegaard had a bit of a slow start to the season but other than that he’s at it every week
@@NewWorldOrderFAIL here we go again English baises, no matter how much non English player do they will still support English player
Picking over is ridiculous. 0 ball knowledge as usual.
😂
Real Madrid-Vini Jr
Man city-Kdb
Arsenal-Odegaard
Bayern-Kane
Psg-Mbappe
Barca-Yamal
Atletico- Griezman
Dortmund- Malen/Brandt
Gotta be Rodri for Man City atm.
As a Madrid fan, Bellingham has clearly been our best player this year. And, as a follower of La Liga, Araújo is clearly Barça's best player.
Dortmund I think is Kobel. Brandt is close but Kobel is world class keeper so he’s my pick.
@@tharcisse7103 Nah Vini is Madrid's best player he is that determining factor of the game i agree that Jude has more goals but Vini is more threatening and game changing player
@@tharcisse7103 well clearly you don't watch Madrid. Vini has been better. Stop it. This is his team.
English bias is crazy, Vini Jr is Madrid’s best player lol
Noo , Bellingham has been much better then vini
100%, and Saliba has been miles better than Saka, who has been pretty average this season. Rice would have been a better shout, but I'd still put Saliba above him.
@@bennalexanderleyland9088nah I’d put rice. Yeh saliba close but rice has the better resume.
@d1pak354 you have Griezmann as ur profile stop talking.
This is a jude and vini convo. No one brought up Arsenal
Arsneals most important is either Ødegaard or Rice. Without Saka they still have Martinelli and Trossard. And tbh Ødegaard is better than Saka.
I think so too
Only me that hates when saka gets mentioned in the same breath as salah 😅
It’s just noise to me now, it doesn’t even make sense.
yeah but you know that they are extremely biased
but why? saka isnt far off and salah also got weaknesses.
@@randomsports5247they aren’t biased at all, none are Arsenal fans they’re just talking facts
@@dasurmel1424saka needs to be born 10 more times to be half the player Salah is
Absolutely no knowledge at all…
😂
coz you know ball innit
???? Other than Barcelona they’re all correct?
@@jackninetynine5036saka isn’t Arsenals best player. Take saliba out and they lost the league. Take Rice out their midfield isn’t the same
Once they said Saka I stopped watching!
Love seeing Ellis on here
How is Jude Bellingham the best player in the world this season. Does mbappe playing golf or something?
Well if he stays in the Uber eats league any longer he may as well turn to golf
@@bluesEvanskro I think his World Cup trophy says otherwise buddy
@@rukudzochitepo9214 former world champion and yet can’t win a champions league lol, his 25 and no balóndor yet. Haaland should’ve won it last year and Bellingham is favorite this year.
Because Bellingham plays for real madrid. Even if he doesn't play rest of the year, he will be win it. He doesn't really have to do anything. Even Fullback Grimaldo from Leverkusen have been better than Jude, but the people who choose doesn't care.
@@zwegan9805 you can lie to yourself but not us, we all know you’d only say something as daft as that because Bellingham is English 🤷♂️ that’s like me saying Alphonso davies deserved the balon dor in 2020 over lewandowski, just isn’t true is it
Yes on Griezmann, sooo underrated, just cause he plays for Atleti. If he played on form for a ‘bigger’ named club, he’d get a lot more attention.
I know if only he played for a big club like Barcelona
lmao he dissapears in a big club
L griezman
He played for Barca and flopped, also Atletico are a big club
@@isaacnewton3514 😂
@@calm123 I support Atleti so I would consider them a bit club - just we get overlooked but so many!
Finally Saturday Social got some guests on that know what they’re talking about.
First guest in the show for @awaydays. Well done Ellis
Lewandowski, Gundogan, Frankie De Jong 😂
Don't know who are these pundits. But a genuine guy who watches Arsenal match will say Saliba. Imagine Arsenal without him
gabriel better this season
Saliba isn't even our best cb
@@mnm284I agree,Gabriel is too underrated
hes the most important not the best
Great guests this week
You can tell these guys don’t even watch half these clubs based on the players they’ve given. Such waffle
James Rodriguez first season at Madrid was as good, if not better then Jude’s . Not only did he get a plethora of goals and assists from midfield, but half of the goals James scored were puskas level goals that season. Underrated player who got shafted by managers and people not knowing how to use him.
I actually thought that this was a reasonable list unlike a lot of people in the comments lol
So you are a Raphinha fan
Yeah pretty good list. The only disagreement I have is Yamal over Gündoga
Dougie should make his own channel, you can tell he knows his stuff and watches a lot of football
Frankie De Jong is Barca’s best player by far. The team crumbles without him
9:50 did bro just say cable?😂😂
This is where arsenal strength really comes forward. We have very equal contributors across the field ⭐️
As an arsenal fan its ødegaard
As a arsenal fan it's saka, you don't no ball obviously.
It's rice
It’s odegaard literally no contest if you’ve actually watched Arsenal play he’s the most valuable player on the team
Saka scores and assists but like 90% of sakas goals have been walkins served on a silver platter
@@TimmyTurner-ey2cs you don't no ball go to bed.
Yessss Ellis go on the lad !!!
England have, without doubt, the best squad in world football, as they did during the World Cup, and just like World Cup, they will go out in the semis (or maybe even earlier depending on the draw) at the Euros.
France’s is better. They have much better defenders
@@GIBBO4182Portugal as well
U guys are just hating on England
They could easily win the World Cup
@@minigigachad4946 I’m English and France have been to the last 2 World Cup finals!! It’s fair to say they’re better than us! And it’s the Euros next, not the World Cup!
I really think France has the best squad.
Howler with the arsenal and barca shout😂
Personally would say Vini as Madrids best player. Honourable mention to Fede Valverde as well!
Breaking: Real Madrid sees an alternative in Brentfort's Toney for Mbappé
Was expecting another 47 minute epic video talking la la la
Very interesting draw for the UCL this season.
1.Left Side: Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, PSG, Barcelona.
2.Right Side: Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Manchester City.
I will expect surprise winners in UCL, just like 2004, but I don't think it will be happened.
Dream Final is PSG vs Manchester City. The beginning of new GOAT rivalry between Mbappe and Haaland.
Or, PSG vs Real Madrid, if Mbappe wants to win the UCL as a big "farewell" party before switching to Real Madrid.
That's my early pick. Anything is still possible for the other teams, even Arsenal!
That Raphina call is something else
No one mentioning frenkie is outrageous. Best barca player for me
Saka ain’t world class yet, I know he shows out for England but for Arsenal, if/when he becomes the X factor for why Arsenal win the big games consistently, then he can be deemed in that bracket.
He’s been voted England international player of the year twice, and is in the top 3 players in the world in his position…
I think top 3 in a position makes you world class & only salah is a better Right winger
Haaland doesn't turn up in the important games. Why does saka have to?
@@GIBBO4182 being top 3 in your position and being world class are two separate discussions, doesn’t necessarily make you world class
@@ydfash23 it depends how you define world class. I personally think if you’re in the best 3 players in the world in your position…then you’re world class
This season:
Arsenal: Odegaard
Bayern: Kane
Atletico: Griezmann
Dortmund: Kobel
Real: Bellingham
Man City: Rodri
PSG: Mbappe
Barca: Gundogan
state of football if "bukayo saka" is deemed as world class hahahaha
I like this bald guy. So well informed and his picks are unequivocally on point
Arsenal - Saka
Bayern - Kane
Atletico - Griezmann
Dortmund - Brandt
Real - Vinicius
Man City - De Bruyne
PSG - Mbappe
Barcelona - Lewandowski
Crazy to think that one of the Atlético Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, PSG and Barcelona will be in the Champions League Final 🤯
It's luck. It doesn't matter how good they are and anything can happen.
atletco2014,16finalist
Why is everyone mad about Raphinha pick? He obv is a leeds fan and wanted to only give it a shout. Didn't really argue about it
Love saka but Saliba, rice and Ødegaard are a different level every week
As an Arsenal fan, there is no best player in our team. All are equal and they know it. Zinchenko is as important as Ødegård, Jorginho is as important as Saka. Arteta doesn’t want a squad with competition for the best player. He wants a squad that is working together. That’s why he is not buying a striker. It would mean that the striker will be the focal point in both the team and would get more attention. This would create internal competition in the squad. Everybody in our team scores, presses, passes, defends etc. He wants players to compete for a place in the starting 11 but not for being the best player and the focal point of the team. This debate is useless.
Arsenal- Rice
Bayern- Kane
Atletico- Greizman
Dortmund- Brandt
Real Madrid- Vini
Man City- KDB/Rodri
PSG- Mbappe
Barcelona- Lamine Yamal
Psg vs Arsnal final
Scoring 1 goal in 22 appearances is a good year according to Dougie
everything bro said about rodri was straight facts
Good list except for raphina
Bring back the old football daily sky sports!!!!!
It’s Martin Ødegaard
Brandt is 1000% the pick for Dortmund….
Araujo is the best Barca player...
Curious that it is impossible to get a full english final for a while.
Can’t believe he picked Raphinha
makes such a difference having people with ball knowledge on
That take of rodri being contender for every balloon dor if g/a wouldn't have been given that much value like in the past
Is absolutely correct 💯
I believe if g/a wouldn't haven't given that much priority than this man should have been on top3,
But you know nowadays football has become all about g/a andi it have become impossible for defensive player to be in top3 of balloon dor
People talk about the importance of haaland, De Bruyne and benardo silva for city but Rodri is what makes that team tick.
It was the exact same with Busquets at barca under guardiola.
Of course Saka is world class, he starts for a National team who are favourites for trophies, and as they said hes 2nd best winger in the world right now
Gundogan is Barcelona best footballer right now ✅
No mention to araujo is crazy he pockets every big player he is assigned to mark 9/10 times without him that defence looks so fragile
If you picked Hummels for Borussia and Ter Stegen for Barca you could have 8 players you can field together.
As a real madrid fan i can tell you its either valverde or kroos, then vini then maybe jude…. Jude doesn’t affect how madrid plays at all, he just happened to finish the most chances
L take. bellingham's ability in transition is unheard of and he has the stamina to cover so much ground to make up for kroos' lack of legs and valverde's darting runs or to reach his crosses. plus it is definitely not kroos, thats a joke, he is just your favourite.
you didn't even mention your most important player (rudiger). for the whole season i'd say bellingham is your best player because he has improved attack, midfield and defence on his own, making real madrid a very scary team. valverde's first half of the season was insane but it is jude.
@@danielayar3599 brother i watch every game, if we’re missing jude we’re fine, we play without kroos its chaos no creativity at all, and i don’t even know what playing without valverde looks like cause he plays every minute
@@danielayar3599 jude is fantastic and i love him, but he’s not crucial to Madrid performance like those two, vini is debatable only because of the injuries at the start of the season
@@danielayar3599 yo brother just came to remind you, bellingham ghosted the second half of the season which didn’t matter at all because he wasn’t all that important, and all 3 others ive mentioned have been more important since wouldn’t you agree ?
Pedri, De Jong and Yamal are Barcelona’s three best players.
Pedri is injured, De Jong has been on and off... the only legit argument right now is Yamal, but Araújo is the correct answer.
Gundogan or Araujo
I watch Madrid every game and trust me Vini is the man this season Expecially atm Jude fell off a bit since the yr start Vini is carrying the side atm
Bro I'm dead 💀💀
"Raphinha, Kobel, Brandt" 😂😂😂
The real choices are Frenkie/Yamal, Hummels
Saka having salad level consistency is mental
Imo:
Saliba
Kane
Griezmann
Reus
Bellingham
De Bruyne
Mbappe
Gandogan
Experts ranking Yamal & Raphinha ahead of Gundogan or Araujo, my heads in mars
Ter Stegen, Gundogan, Frenkie De Jong, Lamine Yamal, Lewandowski, Araujo, Kounde are all clear of Raphinha
Did this guys watched Saka vs Porto? It's as if the guy is inexistent, that was the challenge classifying him as world class 🤷♂️
Arsenal: 2:09
Bayern: 4:43
Atletico: 6:08
Dortmund: 7:53
Real Madrid: 10:07
Man City: 12:03
PSG: 13:59
Barcelona: 15:38
Saka is not the best player for arsenal. Rice odegaard saliba all more important
Athletico vs PSG. City vs Arsenal in the UCL semis.
GOD loves us all so much and never gives up on us but cares for us all
rodri isnt 60 games unbeaten, he lost the community shield to arsenal
He lost that game on penalties,so it doesn’t really count
Community shield is a friendly 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 charity match what are you waffling about
@@SWERVEtammyYTthe community shield isn’t a trophy it’s a friend game
Well Rodri is 60 games unbeaten so do your research step off waffling
Rodri never lost to arsenal
Rice over Saka right now after that Champions League performance against Porto.
Atletico - Griezmann
Dortmund - Kobel
PSG - Mbappé
Barcelona - Gündogan
Arsenal - Rice
Bayer - Kane
Real Madrid - Bellingham
City - De Bruyne
Lmaooooooi
Realmadrid - vini jr
How do you have Gundogan over Araújo?
Araujo has been brilliant but Gundogan has created 100+ chances and should be leading in assists if Barcelona wasn't the most wasteful team in Europe, the next person close to him is FDJ then Pedri with like 30+ each @@tharcisse7103
These two quests are so much better than the usual biased youtuber’s on here
With the money and players PSG have they considered them underdogs!
gundogan is barca’s best player imo
Raphinha for Barça?! Lamine Yamal is in the starting lineup ahead of Raphinha since his injury during the semifinal of the Supercopa de Espana against Osasuna, Barça are considering selling him. And for me Gundogan is always there for Barça, playing as a pivot changing with De Jong playing as an 8.
Frenkie
Pedri
Gundogan
Lewandowski
Araujo
Cancelo
Ferran
Ter Stegen are better than Raphinha
As an arsenal fan Odegaard above saka.. anyday
No mention of Haaland or Oblak seems crazy to me
arsenal best player this season is either between saliba, gaberiel and rice sake is a close fourth.
Let’s not be biased. Saka is a world class player but who do you think if he’s not in our team we won’t be comfortable?
Yamal and Raphinia is outrageous it is Lewa or Gundo
Raphinha has been so bad for us this season and has one good game and people are saying he’s our best player lmao
blud really picked raphinha lmao. How do u guys bring on such guests
Saka is not world class yet
Low key think city will sign Raphina, just not making it public so his price doesn't inflate. You heard it here first ;)
Raphina doesn't even deserve to be on bench of city
I just have a feeling that letting Barca have Ferran Torres, Gundo, Cancelo is really going to help City when uts time we want to sign someone from Barca, I don't know who it will be exactly, but time will tell
@@SP_Cbryou will like Sergi Roberto or Alonslow because our other young players plus Araujo and FDJ are untouchable
The absolute disrespect to Frenkie de Jong/Gundogan 😭😭 For them not to be the first names mentioned when you think about Barca’s success this season mainly lies on them, especially Gundogan who’s been very consistent and important for Barca in La Liga and the UCL. Lewandowski too is also getting back on his form and he’s been very crucial in important games this season.
For City it has to be roderi no doubt, kDP was off for 4 months and city didn't that much effected where roderi missed 4mtach and city lost all the match this show how roderi is crucial player for man city
Odeagaard over Saka
De Bruyne over Rodri
Lamine or Gundogan over Raphinha
Spoiler blocker 🎉
0:10 - In case anyone likes maths:
The probability of the 4 biggest favourites (MCI, RM, ARS, BAY) randomly ending up on the same side of the draw is:
(3/7)*(2/6)*(1/5) ≈ 3%
In other words, you would expect this to happen in the quarter finals about once every 35 years.
(In statistics, this probability is called the "p-value". Traditionally, 5% is used as a cut-off for "statistical significance", so the current p-value of 3% suggests that we have evidence to question if the draw actually was random.)
Arsenal not above PSG and Barca as favourites surely
