Is FC Barcelona star Pedri in his best career moment? He would agree

FC Barcelona star Pedri caused a stir again on Wednesday evening as the Catalans finally tamed what they had dubbed the European 'ogres' at Bayern Munich with a 4-1 win over Bayern at the Montjuic Stadium .

Although hat-trick hero Raphinha deservedly grabbed most of the headlines, Pedri pulled the strings in midfield alongside Marc Casado and Fermin Lopez and played an important role in the build-up to the Brazilian's third goal, which saw him take home the match ball .

Understandably, the number 8 received a standing ovation when he was sent off in the 85th minute and was in high spirits with reporters in the mixed zone after the game.

“It was an opponent we hadn't beaten for a long time and against whom we suffered heavy defeats. “I, a Barca fan since I was little, am proud and the truth is that we wanted to give it back to them (what better way than here with our fans who deserve it the most,” said the Tenerife native.

On the The Partidazo de COPE On the radio show, a panel discussed whether this is the best Pedri we have seen so far, in a short career that began in the elite just over four years ago when former head coach Ronald Koeman attacked him.

Everyone interviewed agreed, and the 21-year-old might agree, as would others who were excited about his start to the 2024/2025 season.

“I am in one of my best moments. It's been a long time since I was physically like that and now I'm achieving this regularity,” admitted a young player whose undoubted talent was often marred by injuries that prevented him from being at the disposal of his manager throughout the campaign stand.

“I have found something that is going very well for me and the truth is that I enjoy playing for Barca, which was my dream as a child,” he added.

Whether a Culer supporter or not, everyone who enjoys watching football should hope and pray that Pedri – who, after a genetic study in a lab in Baltimore, has now developed a tailor-made physical program for him – can finally get off the operating table for good .
