Eusebio had to be the first Black player to play in any European national and club team - Just imagine what he went up against.
He wanted to play for RM or Barça but they weren’t allowing Black players. So he had to stay at Benfica the whole time.
This would be an amazing documentary man.

Nope, I believe there were a couple before him, but we do need a documentary.

Now if only he could keep the same energy with Busquets that he has for Alba and Pique

He's 34 and they always have the likes of Kessie and Frenkie waiting

This is definitely fake.
Sid Lowe was talking about the journalism in Spain recently. They are all basically tabloids because they put out DAILY 30 page papers. So they have to fill it with any and anything.
There was once a 3 page spread on the haircuts of Madrid players
but xavi ain't playing pique no time soon and alba is even a worse position. Busquets is still useful though. He deserves minutes.

If he’s still playing well I don’t think it matters tho.
So Kessie hasn’t been playing at all tho?

Atleti looked terrible yesterday. It's weird how it seems simeone is trying to change their style. Small segments of high pressing. It's not that they can't do it either. The problem is offensively they don't have the personnel to score when there isn't a lot of space behind the defense.
But savic being out really changes their whole squad. He's the heart and soul of that squad.

They've started well in the league but definitely feel like they'd be more dangerous and balanced with Kessie in the XI more consistently, he's only started 17% of the time.
Looks like Xavi's no.1 MF so far this season has been Busquets with Gavi and Pedri.
It's a luxury having those kind of options though to back him up but feel like slowly moving off him being the main starter there would be the best way to go moving forward.

I'm glad to see Memphis getting burn and starts though, he's 100% a better option than Ferran and good to see Xavi seeing it the last few matches.
They really do have a deep squad man
