Arda Turan played a minor role in Barcelona’s 5-0 victory over their rival’s Espanyol in the Spanish League yesterday evening.
The Turkish international was once again left out of the starting line-up and was named as a substitute.
Following the game we took to social media to see how Turan’s performance went down with fans. It’s safe to safe the 29-year-old received a negative reaction with many questioning his role at the club.
No doubt he is liked by many,but Arda Turan has been non-existent at Barcelona

Nice to see we have faith to bring on Arda Turan with a 3-0 lead. Bring on Sergi Roberto who did his job in helping FCB be league leaders

Turan came on in the 73rd minute in place of Andres Iniesta.
The former Atletico Madrid star was unable to play for the first six months of his Barcelona career due to a FIFA imposed transfer ban on the club.
Turan has gone onto make just nine starts for the Catalan giant and has been linked with moves away from the club.
