+1. It’s going to be the other way around next week. Man U can’t slip up in the premier league and we can rest our players with the 11 point lead. Hopefully Valverde will realize this. We’ll score a bunch at home.

Utd beat both Juve and Psg away. I wouldn't be that confident.
Valverde is a conservative manager and when the cl comes around he goes deeper into his shell.
I can't see how we'd win CL. Utd are such a poor team and we were pinned back.

Madrid literally played one tournament.
Barca has fought for the three titles, so of course your players are more tired and need to rest more.

Got a 1-0 win away at Man Utd, with them having ZERO shots on target and people still bitch around like this was our worst performance ever. What more can one ask in life
Before coming to check this forum, I was certain that most members in here would react in the way you describe above, namely, through bitching!
Yes, it was no vintage Barca performance. But, I think that this in a way is even better for us going forward. We won a tough away game in the Champions League, without Messi being great at all. This is very important.
Second, and I stressed this earlier. Man U had more than a week's rest to prepare for this game, whereas we had a title-clinching game only 4 nights prior. This is a massive difference and at times it showed on the field. United players were more energetic and were first to the ball.
Still, I think that after around the 55th minute, our game improved markedly and basically United did not get a sniff.
Great away victory, and now it is us with all the advantages. We are the ones who can rest players, and we are the ones playing at home.
I can't wait for Tuesday night, I smell a massacre!

United are a pretty terrible team and they still had us on the back foot for a long time. Realistically, against a better team we could be looking at a different result. I can't believe people can't see how bad we were, of course there's fatigue involved but you have to be realistic man.

Guardiola has been crap away from home in the CL since his days with us. Yet, EV gets all the crap in the world from this forum.

Away win, no conceded goals.
Fine by me.
Just take it and move on.

Realistically Coutinho's shot could have been a goal. Realistically Messi would have scored from that freecick. Also realistically we could have lost at the weekend and at villareal.
But we didn't do all that and we won 1-0 away in the CL QF, with the opponent not having a shot on target. So shut the fuck up and let's moan another time, when it really deserved.

The team was tired tonight, especially compared to the ultra-fresh ManU. It will be a lot different on Tuesday night when we are better prepared than our opponents.
And no, as good as Liverpool are, we have at least a 50% chance of eliminating them.
