I don’t think a move back to Europe will mean much of anything. I think that the MLS is frowning in such a way that if he were to stay in the US, he would achieve “legendary” status and kind of become immortal, like our hero’s in Europe. I know it sounds insane. But I really believe the future of football is here in the MLS.
So happy for Riqui and I hope he continues at MLS because David doesn't deserve him. I am a cule but I don't like how easily Xavi throws away young players Riqui, Abde, Pablo Torre, Nico...he has favoritism towards certain players that have good potential. He needs to learn patience and sharpen his eye.
Xavi is a realistic not a dreamer He see them everyday playing and if the didn’t show their talent in the training against his team mates do you thing he gonna be good vs Madrid ? Athletico? And btw he didn’t play well when he was get the chance. Defensively he was shit. His Niveau at the MLS? Says nothing about him. It’s a weak league with all respect
@@al7abab man Riqui Puig at training was a beast, just go see some videos and you will see. And when he was given a chance to play? 10 minutes before the end of a game is not a CHANCE to show his talent. They all had crazy potential but he gives 100% of his trust to Gavi and Pedri while the others deserved it too.
Idk why ppl are hating on you for giving Puig his flowers for performing really well in MLS I'm confused because if Puig performed like shit in which his haters were hoping he'll play like shit they would be shitting on him as well. Haters for no reason 😂😂
The only reason I hate Xavi. He doesn't trust his young stars, he wants established old players from another team .Also when he talks about young talents they turn out to be Spanish .
What support are you talking about? I was a huge fan and wouldn't be searching for his highlights (I searched to get here) if I don't still have high hopes for him. He played safe timid football; always a busy bee, asking for the ball just to recycle like Arthur Melo, never taking any risks, no bold adventurous pass; only sideways and backward passes until Pedri emerged. Didn't take his chances. Still hoping for him to become a star.
@@everydaymaths360 He (Puig) said he didn't feel like he had the trust of the coach to make mistakes. The way you described his play sounds exactly like the way someone would play who was afraid to make a mistake.
So you guys think really that he can help Barca ? Or he you’ll have any chance playing against : PEDRI? Gavi? F D Young ? Kessie? he is kind of player very similar to Oze Sergio Roberto.
Very funny the end of the video. What team need a midfielder with all this skills and abilities. And they say barcelona, the team of the jong, gundogan, pedri, gavi, fermin... Riqui didnt have a place there. Remember this name: Guillermo Fernández. 15:years old and he already has beaten some records of riqui puig
I love how just 11 months ago you posted how he Ruined his career now look you say he’s doing great I mean he recently got a goal and assist how times change in just 12 Months thank you for telling us because I wasn’t aware of how gewas doing I was focusing on MLS players like Brenner(joined udinese last month) Thiago almada(most sort after midfielder in MLS) and miles Robinson(midfield mistro Nottingham forest want him) how far he’s come!
Puig mostly played sideway passes during barca carrier which xavi didnt liked..he should make more direct passes he did nothing to retrieve the ball....thats what his weakness in his game..
Sorry,but Puig used to be the only one at Barca who was able to put something unpredictable on the pitch. Also he used to be one of the best player when it came to holding the ball. It was nearly impossible to take the ball from him without faulting. He earned more free kicks than Messi when he got the chance from Valverde. The side passing game started under Koeman and still goes under Xavi. Puig used to be the only one who took risk and try to operate with lobbed passes behind the defensive lines or a strong passes between the defenders and he used to make the wingers run behind the defenders quickly with long balls. That’s why he wasn’t popular,because he skipped the casual way ( first pass to Messi,than pass to Messi,and after pass to Messi) . He always looked for the one who was in the best position,not for the one who had the biggest name on his shirt. This days Barca still building they attacks super slow. If the opponents sit back they have no clue what to do. Xavi have no plan for that. Puig used to force one on one’s,take ons … Xavi loves to let the ball go around for 20-30 minutes before they try something…..
"Puig mostly played sideway passes during barca carrier which xavi didnt liked.." Did you see Fati played sideway passes after his return from injury sustained in Jan 2022 ?? Fati dare not dribble or accelerate (1v1). Xavier still give Fati minutes in most games ... Fati is off market sale now. Xavier did not give the same opportunities to Puig ... (i.e Jutgla, Abde etc) .. no ??
@@novice4648 we cant compare puig with fati.fati was a star before injury he deserved minute ..even though fati lost his dribbling he still got good intelligence in movements and where to be in game he lacked goal which very surprising considering how good was he before that.xavi used him as a second stricker than winger to who doesnt needed to dribble because he lost it..but considering puig there was lot much competition with pedri gavi and dejong arrival..and for midfielder u should also very aggressive off the ball ..how can three managers be wrong..
@@sakshamwaghmare3199 other managers were wrong to not give him the minutes he deserved but when Xavi came to many better options were there for him In the midfield Tbh without pedri we don't have a player like puig who can take risky passes on and come in the box for a goal we saw how much are attacked struggled when there was no pedri by now we have gundo In case of fati he was given the number 10 and to this date we don't have a proper LW but currently abde is there I think personally abde should be given more opportunities than fati this season
Things are different when he would face real madrid , man city , bayern and teams with strong physical and technical presence. We have all seen Puig play in a lot of matches, we know is a good player but barcelona has pedri, gavi, gundogan, frankie and barca will probably get another high profile interior along side romeu as a back up pivot. We were talking about bernardo because bernardo is the guy who not only will fit barcelona but also is someone who can put 2 goals against madrid in cruical UCL match. Puig is definitely not that guy.
"We have plenty midfielders no need of puigi" Two proven toothless duo [pedri, gavi] ... and expects to perform well at big games.

"So he's shining in a farmer's league? " Don't use "farmer's league" to belittle a player's achievement ! Well, people said the same of Haaland ... playing in farmer's league ... Haaland went to EPL, became the top scorer with 36 goals ... and the top EPL scorer in a single season in EPL history. Messi went to "farmer's league" PSG ... Did he performed as well as he was in Liga ? ... with Mbappe, Neymar in his team. Two consecutive UCL failed campaigns ...
Bro Ruig Puig is playing in the MLS😂. If he played in the premier league he would be trash😅. Even though he playing good in the MLS doesn't mean he's going to play go in the other league's.
"If he played in the premier league he would be trash" Well ... some people said the same of Haaland ... But Haaland is the top scorer for EPL ... 36 goals ! The most goals scored in a single EPL season ...
Stop it. EPL is overrated. Puig would actually be among top midfielders. The premier league has a lot of midfielders that lack technical quality but a bunch of muscles. Only a few top teams have quality midfielders. That huff and puff football they play in the EPL is the reason why the intelligent Spaniards have always dominated English teams.
Also just because he's playing in the Mls and performing well there doesn't mean he wouldn't perform well else where. Yes his time at Barcelona was a flop but it have other players who didn't start they career off with a bang and still manage to redeem themselves. Relax let the boy shine nah 😂
He is becoming a presence in MLS... I'm happy for him.. I'm a fan and I follow his career
Xavi thought that he was destroying Riqui Puig but he only made him better. I've always loved Riqui's style of play
Riqui please stay in LA we love you
I don’t think a move back to Europe will mean much of anything.

A family friend of mine is his agent and Puig is a really nice guy. My brother has met with him and he got us both signed game worn jerseys.
can you get me one too bro

The only reason I hate Xavi. He doesn't trust his young stars, he wants established old players from another team .Also when he talks about young talents they turn out to be Spanish .
Balde, Arujo, Kounde, Pedri, Gavi, Ansu are all young. Puig is also spanish, whats your point ?
He is such a talent but he will have to come to Europe to see his potential. Xavi doesnt send the players out of the academy for no reason...
He was not getting any support in Barça! I am a Barça fan !

I believe he wasn't a good influence on the Barcelona youth. If Xavi let him go we have to trust that it was for good reason
Exactly! Riqui went out to the nights Club with Piqué 3-4 times a week!
He came from La Masia.
Who is here after LA GALAXY match against Inter Miami.

That's why Barca didn't play him😅😂.
One good goal, And suddenly he is a monster. 😂
He will NEVER be good enough to Barca, or any other top club in Europe
I think Andorra Gereard Pique best friend.
RIQUI PUIG😂😂❤
He’s playing well in the MLS… Isn’t that difficult compared to Europe…
jajajaja jajajaja what??????? La MLS es una liga sin nivel defensivo!!! Riqui no tiene nivel de jugador top para europa
ofcouse let him com back
STAY IN LA!
Pique's son
there are so many better midfielders that are better then him in the Barca team. They just dont get minutes
Dude MLS.. like really? freaking of course he will shine.... Zlatan scored 50goals in almost 1year.
He's better than pedri and Gavi. Yes I said it and I'm a hardcore Barca fan
good troll tho.
lol
We don't need him ❤💙
Arda is glad he missed this same level of opportunity and respect 😅
@@danielwalker1538ye but he won’t get game time THATS the problem
He won’t get enough game time
IMF
Man city
leaving a dislike so he can stay in the MLS haha
Umm 🤔
Xavi bring him back

nah
Acting like he gonna play when Madrid have Modric, Kroos, Bellingham, Camavinga, Tchuomeni, and even Valverde even tho he’ll probably play rw for them
Didn't Martin Odegaard waste away in RMA?
