Has he EVER taken the ball to the byline when receives wide with one man to beat in space? Nope! Passes back inside, does a wee skip and jogs back into the middle. Utterly hopeless, again!!!!

In reflection this is a good, honest and accurate appraisal. Although exceedingly frustrating when with a bit more managerial acumen Barca could have actually won a double. :lol: But you're right, it was a transitional season.

Disgraceful second half. de Jong only one, maybe Alba too that gets pass marks.

Atleti need to win this. :lol:

Atleti have controlled virtually the whole game with and without the ball. They've no worries as Barca have no speed in behind. They're growing in confidence and pushing Barca back with ease. Atleti are doing what they want. Barca midfield lost!

He had a poor first half. Can't imagine his second was much better. A liability.

Brutal viewing. So ponderous and a lesson in keeping the ball for possession sakes. And the defence looks fragile as usual. Need their arses kicked !

You're so far off, man!! XaviV

Nahh man, I'm one of his biggest apologists but today he did squat, really didn't ceate anything (unless first 15 as I missed the start). Moved the ball on, and gave it away a good few times too. Got a player sent off!! lol malvolio

:lol: one of those days, Frenkie.

Well done on th goals but I'm still unlclear what your role is tbqh!

If folks want to pin an horror show performance on Messi then this is your opportunity. He'd have been better rested as he literally did fuck all in this game. Least it's out the way I guess.

Shit performance; thank goodness Griezmann stepped up. :shakeshead:

They need to up the tempo and start taking this gae properly seriously or they'll concede and not be able to get it back again. Team as a whole have been poor.

Straight back down to earth. Madrid getting all 11 players back behind the ball in their final third is embarassig but it's working a treat as this Barca team has no ability to open them up. Really can't see a way back unless they get a break early on. Need a bit of the luck Madrid had first...
