Will be tougher games than these four but 2 goals conceded from open play in 4 is not bad.

Valencia were very poor, gave us no game. I kinda feel sad about them in a way. This is not the club we had the rivalry 20 years ago.

You mean pressing. Also, many different players were starting tbf.

What are the minimum expectations from his second season?

I meant defending. Someone pointed out in chat but we didn’t rely on offside trap.

Think our backline didnt push up as much as we have seen before.

But maybe approach for this game dunno.

Valencia also lethargic. But would think then opposite approach make more sense.

Carry on a fight vs Madrid to the end in the league and don't go out to a non-elite side in CL is pretty fair as far as I'm concerned.

Agreed... but if do go out to an elite side not a hammering either. Need to compete.

Valencia sucks but in other games they have looked competent. This was a very good game from Barca
