Well that wasn't my argument. He played well in that match against La Real, but I wouldn't consider it as a "defining moment." Last time he stepped up in the clutch in a huge match was vs. Atleti home in 2016 in the QFs.

He scored a goal in a match after we had already wrapped up the league, great "defining moment" for sure.

Option 3 (most likely): Bench Dembele and play Messi, Suarez and Griezmann together. If we don't play Dembele next season he will demand a transfer and we'll end up looking real dumb like Chelsea did with KDB and Salah.

Took some time, but the Valverde apologists are starting to crawl out of their bunkers now that the dust from from the Roma match has settled and the anger has dissipated somewhat. If we win the Copa this week more will start showing themselves and if Madrid gets knocked out of the CL the...

1. No he hasn't. 2. No he hasn't. 3. Nobody is. 4. To you everyone who criticizes Messi is a troll. Fact is you're deluded and can't think straight.

Spot on, his future rests solely on the Copa final against Sevilla. He's coaching for his job that match so it makes sense the match before that (Celta) will be one of the only games where he actually rotates. He's willing to run the players into the ground for an unbeaten streak, but not at...

Complete BS, just look that guy's account, he's just a Barca fan pretending to be a journalist.

Question: People don't care about Liga and just want the UCL. Valverde: "Maybe if Atlético was closer to us in points, the fans would actually care about La Liga." Question: How will Barça celebrate the league title? Valverde: "It doesn't matter. We just have to win it." You have been...

Excuse me? :paulinho::andre: Two world class replacements right there, we won't even notice the difference. Really though, how dumb can Valverde be to play Busi on painkillers in the league where we have an 11 point lead? Busi and Pique seem to to have these nagging injuries forever since...

Messi was better last season. He has noticeably declined from his 16/17 form from what I've seen from him so far this season. He shit the bed in the CL last year as well, but he was still better overall. This is to be expected though. He's at the point where's he going to get worse every...

Passing and dribbling is fine, but his aim should be to find our forwards in space in the final third, not to get too involved there himself. If he gets caught up too high better team will punish us on the counter. This season for Liverpool he mostly played as a "CM" for with Salah, Firmino and...

985902405236670464 He's embarrassing himself more and more with each passing day.

If he goes wandering up the pitch that means there's only two midfielders left to control the game and maintaining our shape would be near impossible. Nobody's saying he has to play as deep as Rakitic or anything, but the way he's played this season and most of his career is far too high to even...

I think we need two more world class midfielders. Don't get me wrong, I like what Coutinho has showed this season with us but he plays far too high up the pitch to be considered a midfielder. Reading some Liverpool forums I've also come to find that he essentially played as a 4th forward for...

I'm not going to try and argue that Pep's giving youth a ton of minutes at City, but it's just the reputation and aura about both the managers. Pep is still a coach that helps players improve and develop even if he hasn't promoted youth since his days at Barca. He still has that reputation and...

I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but Suarez arrived the same summer Pinto left. If we want to get rid of Luis we need to bring in a new BFF for Messi.

What complete nonsense. Dembele already dominated the farmer's French league at 18, then dominated Bundesliga at age 19. He's been dealt a very tough set of circumstances this season, being out for 2/3 the season, having a coach like Valverde and playing in the best league in the world...

Pep vs. Valverde, it's not a difficult decision for a youngster.

The age of our current regulars next season: Suarez: 32 Pique: 32 Messi: 31 Alba: 30 Rakitic: 31 Busquets: 30 Ter Stegen: 26 Coutinho (replacing Iniesta): 26 Roberto: 27 Umtiti: 25 That's 6 out of our regular 10 over 30 years of age. Valverde somehow managed to run this group into the ground...

:lol: A little bit of trolling never did anyone any harm. I wanted to put myself in the shoes of Total-Football for a second and I have to say I did not enjoy it! :dembele:
