Yeah that’s fair
When you are tought to attack whenever you can all your life and career, you cannot just park the bus whenever you are supposed to... this is just how we play, can't everyone just get use to it...
Imagine being told to do one thing all the time and then all of a sudden you are supposed to do the opposite for 5 minutes... it just does not work that way... we had our chances winning our way but it did not happen... this is life

Subs were basically done out of necessity. Both Garcia and Martinez looked fucked and there was no one else.
Only option for Olmo is Fermin.
No major overhaul needed just the ability to be able to bring in an experienced player rather than going from a starter to a kid fresh out the womb lol.
Imagine being told in August the team was in a CL semi final and Martin, Fort and Victor were on the pitch. Ferran at 9 etc.

Absolutely heartbroken 
When you talk style/attacking play we are clearly the better team but we just couldn't defend over the two legs at all.
It's one thing to ''outscore'' the opponent, accept risk etc but so many fundamentals cost us this year.
That Inter 4th goal was a calamity of errors from start to finish.
Proud of the team, very happy with our coach but our glaring weaknesses all season eventually undid us at the most important moment.

Yes, Garcia was exhausted and Inigo was limping a bit and on a yellow. Literally the only thing he could of done differently was Christensen vs Araujo. Maybe opted for Araujo since Christensen just came back from injury. The man worked miracles this season, some people are delusional.

Its going to take me a long time to get over this. Martin just has to kick the ball out of play and we probably win.
Im stunned at how much of a fuck up this ended up being
It honestly feels like this team never learns from its mistakes.
Barça were up 3-2 with just 5–6 minutes left. And what do they do? Instead of managing the game, slowing things down, and killing the tempo—like Inter did—they immediately rush to put the ball back into play. Why? What’s the point? There was no urgency, no game management, no intelligence. Just blind chaos.
Araujo – The third goal is a pure facepalm moment. Just block the ball with your foot. It's that simple. Instead, he overcommits and gets caught. The fourth goal? He was partially at fault there too—poor positioning, poor awareness.
De Jong – Officially on fraud watch. In a game where leadership and creativity were desperately needed, he offered absolutely nothing. No vision, no forward drive, no through balls. When the team plays well, he blends into the background. But when things fall apart, his absence becomes glaring.
Fort – There's a reason Flick doesn’t trust him. That wild shot from a tight angle? Completely unnecessary. Poor decision-making in a key moment.
Yamal – Had multiple chances to kill off the game. Yes, he could’ve been more clinical, but it's hard to blame him when he was carrying most of the team’s creativity. At least he tried.
Fermín – Disappointing. He was invisible for most of the match. Couldn’t get involved, couldn’t impact the game.
Martín – Mixed bag. He was the main reason Barça got back into the game, and credit for that. But by the end he looked exhausted or mentally switched off. Should have done better in the final minutes.
The referee – An absolute disgrace. Inter blatantly wasted time throughout the match—constantly delaying throw-ins, goal kicks, and restarts. Yet not a single yellow card? No consequences at all? This is supposed to be elite-level officiating?
Rafa – The engine of the team. He gave absolutely everything out there. The truth is, the team let him down today. He had very few chances to make a real impact in front of goal, but the one opportunity he did get? He buried it. You can’t really ask for more from him. Total professional, total effort.
The referee completely lost control. Time-wasting went unchecked for nearly half an hour of the game. It's infuriating because fans don’t watch football to see one team could waste so much time with dirty tricks and get away with it. This kind of performance shouldn't be anywhere near a Champions League match. Honestly, he should never officiate at this level again.
A deeply frustrating performance. The first half was a disaster. The start of the second half gave some hope. But the ending? A complete collapse.
I don’t know anymore. Every time I get my hopes up, invest my time, and truly believe that this time Barça might finally turn a corner in the Champions League—they let me down again. It’s a cycle that never ends. Hope, disappointment, repeat. I want to believe things will change, but right now, it’s hard to see how. Honestly, it’s starting to feel like I should stop emotionally supporting this team altogether—for my own peace of mind.
