Oh look, first match of the season in a friendly super cup game with players just coming back from vacation, others playing first official match for the team not yeat accustomed to their teammates, lacking physical and match fitness, playing on african potato field and not giving stellar performance - forum goes into hysteria. Never change barcaforum.

compared to Liverpool match this morning - quite a bad performance. Much too slow passing, not much movement. Nice golazo by Dembele.

Nobody was asking for a five star performance but the deficiencies in our play are still there. Magnified by a clueless manager who should be in charge of a side like Real Sociedad.

Man i came so close to predicting the scoreline.

Great goal by Dembou.

 

[Mitchell1978]

Boring game but it was the first game for a lot of the players so not the time to draw conclusions.

Nothing new to see here.

New season, sane old failings but the oldies are a year older.

Suarez, Busquets and Pique should be seeing a good amount of time on the bench.

Valverde has no new ideas. He brings nothing to the table in terms of motivation, drive.
We will have our usual quarter final exit in cl. This teams spine has run its course. Lucho managed to shake thing up a bit but that was the last hurrah.
On paper we look strong but on the pitch we look slow.

Exactly . I'd keep Busqs as holding midfielder but drop the sluggish Rakitic and replace him with A Vidal who is dynamic and determined .. Suarez was again useless and need to be be benched . I'd use him as a 60th minute super sub and start with both Dembele and Malcom up front

Of course not, the coming La Masia just havent got worldclass potential

Arthur's not from La Masia.

OMG imagine if we had Klopp as manager or even Marcelo Bielsa ... check out the highlights of the Leeds game !

Of course it means something, as it's a much more sane theory, than EV setting out to destroy Malcom's Barça career from day 1.

Yes, he should've been there ahead of Vidal, but it's clear that there is some sort of problem regarding Sevilla and their prying eyes on the non EU quota, hence why they both aren't in the squad.

Valverde: "Leaving Malcom out was a personal decision, I wasn't thinking about anything else."

Well, Valverde is probably a better source than you and Samuel spitballing, I think. Maybe he's not "Out to ruin" Malcom, but this does say something.

so since we won the supercup, we won't be winning the league right?

 

[Barcaman]

Pique got grade 7 while Lenglet got 5 in Sport.

Also, Steven got an 8 same as Dembele and Messi.

Barca has won 2009 Supercup and also then La Liga

Most of the players played their 1st game ffs.
Some deluded people here.
