Two dropped points.

Was the offside goal wrongfully called? Looked like it could of been on but then I didn't get a good replay.

Guille got another cameo. Scary that he looks physically ready for the level already, and able to play more. Early impression at this level is Alena vibes (who broke in at 16 and looked very exciting), but hope he gets more chances and proves me wrong in having a higher ceiling.

Depor won btw so a 4 point gap at the top. Which means given their form, we will probably be looking at playoffs and possibly staging at this level another year.

Guiu and Fort saved for PSG?

Can't see Guiu getting any minutes either way with Roque, Felix and Ferran fit.

Didn't watch full game so missed this disallowed goal in live and didn't see any possible replays. But in a slowed down video Pau does look a bit off. Impossible to tell from this angle though.

Anyway, we had more than enough chances to win and were also quite unlucky hitting the post three times.

Don't think they were "saved" for PSG but they are both in the first team dynamics full time and only play for Barca B when needed. Rafa probably prefers to use players who train with the team every day.

Whether that (training with the first team and only play occasionally - especially Guiu- rather than play regularly for BA) is good for Fort and Guiu's development is another question.

Anyone knows how often Casado is training with the first team? He's usually on the bench but only had that cameo appearance against Atletico and also played some minutes against Shakhtar and Antwerp in group stage of CL. OTOH he's obviously the captain and key player for BA.


In other news, Olmedo is our 16th player to score this season. We've also scored 8 goals from the corners. Not sure if Rafa (and/or his assistant responsible for set pieces) is actually cooking something here or just level of defending in Primera RFEF is that low. Probably bit of both. That said both Moha and Unai Hernandez look good at taking corners tbf.

Speaking about Unai, club wants to reward his good season by improving his contract which expires next season but we have an option to extend it for two years. Don't see him making it here longterm but could still be a useful player for BA, especially if we are promoted. If not will probably be loaned to a Segunda team (like Valle) before eventually being sold.
