Great result, awful second half performance. If you're going to sit deep (which I hate by the way) you need an outlet, which Suarez is too slow to provide. Perfect half for Dembele. Take Suarez off if you're scared of being exposed. But that was just dreadful to watch. No control, no threat. Okay so we nullified them well, but we're Barca for christ's sake - should be far more ambitious.
 
I’m actually worried how our chances are later in CL. Feels like our attack is blunt against every parked bus. But regardless, a victory is a victory. Even if it’s not convincing. Now the league is ours to lose.

UCL teams usually don't park the bus.

Not like we lose to sides like that anyway if they want a draw they can have it

Messi saves this terrible manager once again.

He actually seems more of a calm strategic manager. Seems to be able to calculate probabilities and long term objectives, and act accordingly. It's his objective quality what has put us at this great lead this year so far imo.

great win, great first half performance, about 2nd half, barca need to do better on those counters.


atletico and simeone were totaly outplayed, without a shoot on target except that offside goal, what a performance from barca defense.

Good game, played with intensity and focus against the rugby style of Atletico. Fielding Andre Gomes instead of Paulinho early in the match was a huge mistake, cameras were on Valverde a few times simply because of his beloved player failures on the pitch.

I also have to praise Thomas Partey, it was a monster defensive game for the Ghanaian. He is developing into a key player for Atletico as DM.

Messi has got him out of jail so many times this year the guys tactics and team line ups and subs are a joke. Without Messi he would be long gone.

Are you serious?

Yea, no hope or perspective for improvement..just hope messi saves us every match...dont want to see his conservative ass next season...

Stop being fooled by the lead in the championship..we are one of the weakest and slowest barca sides in the last decade and the fact that we fluked some games while real didnt this year doesnt change that..

Defending a one goal lead is not something that suits Barca. That slight offside on Costa was way too close.
