Krkic sees Barcelona opening with Ibrahimovic exit

Bojan Krkic feels he has a bigger chance of regular football at Barcelona this season.

The striker can see an opening following Zlatan Ibrahimovic's move to AC Milan.

"Without Ibrahimovic there will be an increase in minutes, not only for me but for everyone because there are fewer up front," said Krkic.

"With Zlatan here, he is a high level player, it would have been more complicated. I prefer to focus on me, trust my possibilities and the opportunities I will have."

this guy has been given a chance many times...and in my view has done nothing special. Sure he's scored a few goals but so would anyone playing upfront!!! Look at Pato at AC, same thing!!!
I think he's a little short for upfront position and typical number 9 role. He's a fans favourite so he will get his chance regardless. Like said easy to build him up when he gets to play with the best like to see him at Espanyol now...smaller weaker team...i doubt he would look good there.... :)

(I LOVE MYSELF)

Krkic has what it take to replace ibra at Barca.What they need to do is to give him more time on the pitch so as to get acquinted with the pressure.He is skillful,fast and lastly has a goal-sense

what's the difference? thought ibra replaced by villa???
