Disagree on Bojan only flourishing at Barca.
His playing stlye in fact isn’t suited to current system.
He’s good at as a drifter, not someone whos supposed to be part of buildup play and track back and press.

Agree about Rjikard bringing him too early.

Unfortunately, I think Bojan can only truly flourish in the Barcelona system so his entire career may never truly reach its potential.

They say the same thing about Messi.

No.
He’s a luxury item.
And expensive sub.

Of course, with the addition of Sanchez up front and Thiago being the IT thing of the moment, the only way Cesc will get on the bench might be if he has the backup keepers gloves.

The Thiago buzz right now is like Pedro and Bojan and Messi at their start.

The legend was the Bojan had scored 1000 goals through the youth ranks. Rijkaard did bring Bojan up too early which is not mentioned by many if any. There is a certain sense of entitlement that Bojan possesses but there is no denying the works hard and has tremendous skill. Pedro’s blossoming and the string of untimely injuries hurt Bojan’s progress. He most certainly should have stayed in Barca B but those were different times. Unfortunately, I think Bojan can only truly flourish in the Barcelona system so his entire career may never truly reach its potential. Barcelona will not make the same mistake with Deulofeu.

Bojan has so much promise when he first came into the Barcelona team in 2007. He was supposed to be the ‘new Messi’. Of course, since he’s still only 20, he’s still has a great while to go and can still shine at Roma.

It’s quite funny because Pedro seems to have taken the role that Bojan was supposed to take. 2 years ago, Pedro was a virtual unknown (at least to non-Barcelona fans) who was probably less talented than Bojan, but he’s quickly taken over and has consistently held his spot.

NINE HUNDRED goals at youth level?!

I really, really like Bojan – you have to feel a certain amount of sympathy for someone so obviously talented at such a young, who at most other top clubs wouldn’t have to compete with the best player in the world and the meteoric rise of Pedro.

I’d argue that Bojan is more creative and technically gifted than Pedro, but he doesn’t have the same tireless physical or bullish mental attributes of the latter which explains Guardiola’s preference.

But regardless, Roma have surely got a decent deal out of this – there’s no way they’ll pay nearly 30m euros for him between now and the end of the loan deal, but a chance for Bojan to cement a place in a top team in a top European league may well end up benefiting all three parties.
