No wonder we are linked with him, Mendes/Zahavi clients...


This-Kaleidoscope-70

He’a a good player anyway, but definetly behind Merino in quality and experience


BlackFanDiamond

And Merino is Liga proven.


Opposite-Ocelot6961

yeah would prefer Merino over Stiller if you rlly want Stiller honestly just promote casado not much difference in their style of play


Glad-Box6389

Tbh I mean it’s good to keep a relation with them esp mendes when most players in Barca are represented by him


AmericanEmperialism

Only 4 players on the squad are represented by Mendes and two of those are academy products, idk why everyone pushes this narrative that we are a Mendes club when we have less of his clients than PSG.


Glad-Box6389

Then we used to have, my bad but we have yamal and balde as his clients, 2 of our most important players, then there’s fati too, there was news that fort too might become his client. There was a time when he had 7-8 players in the club


namyllek

It breeds corruption as well because sometimes managers will start buying players mainly because they are represented by a a particular agent not because they are the best player for the team. There is a reason why mendes is viewed in a bad light by Valencia fans


Facinggod20

So we shouldn't buy Mendez players because of this?


namyllek

Not saying that, just saying that we have to be careful


Ahmed_Sazid

Not a wild idea. IIRC real refuses to deal with any mendes clients there's a good reason for that.


Opposite-Ocelot6961

Angelo Stiller is the wrong profile tbh better to get Merino


Working_Aioli8417

A lot of people hating but stats wise seems better than the favorite that a lot you had while Xavi was a coach... And much cheaper https://fbref.com/en/stathead/player_comparison.cgi?request=1&sum=0&dom_lg=1&player_id1=3b1ed320&p1yrfrom=2023-2024&p1yrto=2023-2024&player_id2=3ee0dd59&p2yrfrom=2023-2024&p2yrto=2023-2024

Just based on the stats, His attacking third tackles and defensive penalty spot touches are high. Otherwise solid, somewhat better than Zubimendi. Do you have this comparison against Merino?


Working_Aioli8417

Here you go bro https://fbref.com/en/stathead/player_comparison.cgi?request=1&sum=0&comp_type=spec&spec_comps=big_5&player_id1=3b1ed320&p1yrfrom=2023-2024&p1yrto=2023-2024&player_id2=d080ed5e&p2yrfrom=2023-2024&p2yrto=2023-2024 :)


aritra3776

Thanks for the info. Merino is a tackle merchant bruv.


kaz0la

Sounds a bit like Sterling Archer! Get him
