Lliga: Getafe - Barca 1-0

[estranged]

Tomorrow Saturday 26th, 22:00 CET.

Away to 15th place Getafe. Only 3 days rest after the Milan game. Adriano is fit but Iniesta is still rested as a precaution. We won this fixture 1-3 last season. Discuss.

Getafe is always tough opponent for Barca .. though they only managed 1 win in Liga over barca ..they are far from being easy ..

4-3-3 will be back with Alves - Puyol - Pique - Abidal - Sergio - Xavi - Cesc - Alexis - Messi - Villa ..

Villa made a great match in Getafe last season with a goal and assist .. hope he will do it again .. we need in form Villa ASAP ..

i'd love that formatiotion. but i think pep will go with alves - masch - pique - maxwell - busi - thiago - xavi. cesc - messi - villa

[abual3bed1]

yeah .. Pep will likely go with Mascherano with Pique .. since I don't think Puyol is fit enough to play 3 matches in 7 days .. Getafe is dangerous and Maxwell would be an open street for them .. since Getafe remember how to be a good team only when they face Barca .. and Alexis should start .. he needs to get more time on the pitch ..

Alexis needs to get more minutes under his belt before el classico.

Messi hatrick?

[Myrmecophile]

The league title is already decided so I'd like to see this team:

Vicky

Montoya - Gomez - Masch - Abidal

Busquets

Thiago - S.Roberto

Cuenca - Rafinha - Asexis

Cesc should play with Barca B for the rest of the season after his performances so far.

This game will be easy guys, like I always say .

But seriously, if we don't win we might as well not show up to El Clasico

[PhilS]

VV
Alves Pique Masch Adriano
Busquets Cesc Thiago
Alexis Messi Villa


Though if Pep is willing to go 3-4-3 vs. AC Milan, it might be 3-4-3 pretty much all the time from now on. That would explain why the team bought no defenders last summer.

[Badger]

Has to be 4-3-3. This 3-4-3 crap makes us look so vulnerable. I think Madrid would tear it apart.

I hope not. We should save that formation for "easy" opposition, at home and that's it. It can be fun to watch but it's too risky in big matches and away from home and we can't afford to drop anymore points.

i think :
VV
Alves Pique Mascherano Abidal
Keita Xavi Cesc
Pedro Messi Alexis

we need Alexis and Pedro to get some Minutes before El Clasico

I agree with this although keita should be in the middle, thiago for xavi and alexis should be substituted for cuenca in the 70 minute.

[tiki-taka]

I firmly believe Guardiola should set up a regular XI for the match of Rayo Vallecano and Levante and then rest 6 important players including Messi for the match of Bate Borisov in the CL so that they can prepare themselves and use the formation of R vallecano and Levante against Real Madrid.

[tiki-taka]

This would be my preferred formation against Bate Borisov on December 6th:



Victor Valdes (second half substitute for Pinto)

Montoya - Mascherano - Puyol - Abidal/Maxwell
Thiago - Busquets - Keita
I. Cuenca - David Villa - Pedro/Adriano
