Most people criticized Joao for his comments about Atletico but he was right. It's way easier to perform in a possesion side than in a defensive side

When you only touch the ball 5-10 times per game it's harder to perform that if you touch it 45-50 times per game. Joao wasn't lying when he said most players would prefer to touch the ball 50 times than 10 times.

Just compare today's game between Barca and Atletico. Just compare how much touches did Joao had in comparison to Griezzman and you would see how Joao actually had a point.

suarez, griezmann ( who sucked at Barca btw), falcao, morata, Diego costa, Koke ( who is a midfielder) all did very well attacking wise. Even villa and mandzukic also did well in their short time there.

People act like Felix has been very good for Barca when in fact he hasn’t. Two different systems and he’s supposed to be doing better in Barca’s system yet He’s been scoring goals at the same rate he was when he was at atletico.
