When was this? I remember him on Leeds. He was solid. Nothing to go crazy about. His first two years at Barca they thought he might not get a 3rd year. Then Yamal shows out and all of a sudden Raphinha is burying these chances
Kept them from relegated, was a stand out player too which got him the move to Barca.

You can say the same with Vini, when he first came around everyone said how ass he was. Even Benzema got caught saying don't pass to this wasteman.

Raph is doing all this completing again a world class 17 year while playing out of position.

I’ve said over and over I think he’s the 2nd best keeper in the league and that’s 2nd to the best in the world, I can’t help but feel like we’ve fumbled this, the Georgian keeper I don’t know what we doing with that, I think this is Ali’s last season coming up and then he’s going home.


I wish him all the best and looking forward to seeing him flourish but it will hurt a lot :mjcry:
12.5 million pounds we sold him for I've read :scust:

That is one of the best bargains we seen in the PL Era and will be best signing of the season come end of the season

18Ms with add ons, which you will get cause he will be their first choice.

Was he in his last year? If so thats pretty good money.

I ain't gonna argue it but I feel Yamal's presence has helped him tremendously and has also helped Lewie

It is a bargain but I think the club has previously made it hard for him to get a move with their asking price and kept him knowing his quality for the last 3 seasons, when he’s been ready to move on somewhere he can start every week so I’m not mad about them doing right by him and being reasonable and facilitating a move.


Like you I do think he will really show his levels with the confidence knowing he’s number 1 and playing every week. Don’t think there’s any doubt he’ll be rightfully viewed as one of the league’s best come the end of the season. I suspect there will be a few MOTM performances from him were people will be like just how good was this nikka today and earning Brentford 3 points :wow:
