'Ter Stegen thinks he's Garrincha, he's not half as good as he thinks he is'

Michael Robinson, working on Movistar, came down hard on the German goalkeeper

Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen accepted responsibility for Barcelona’s loss in Vigo on Sunday

However, former British footballer and current commentator for Movistar Michael Robinson still came down hard on the German international. 

“Ter Stegen believes he’s Garrincha,” Robinson blasted after the stopper gave away the fourth goal in the 4-3 defeat.  

“Who does he think he is with the ball at his feet? He’s not half as good as he thinks he is. It’s a serious problem.”

However, Gerard Pique, Andres Iniesta and Luis Enrique have all backed Ter Stegen. 

They say he should continue to play as he does as it gives far more to Barca than it takes away from them.
