    CL | Round 4: Manchester City - FC Barcelona 3-1

    Lucho's following Barca's long-time commitment to playing it short and risky in defense and avoiding kicking the ball away at all costs; he's following Barca's commitment to possession ball when there are openings and possibilities to play it direct; and Barca's commitment to having a shit...

    CL | Round 4: Manchester City - FC Barcelona 3-1

    I like Simeone. He built a very resilient team in Atletico. So solid defensively and now very attacking-minded too. I think it's a myth that he's a defensive coach. Having a strong defense doesn't mean being defensive-minded. It's just about organization. In the long term, a defense is a must to...

    CL | Round 4: Manchester City - FC Barcelona 3-1

    Luis Enrique was totally out of his depth. Just stood there watching wondering what was going on. You could see from his reactions how perceptive Pep was and how he dramatically shifted the focus of his team in counter-attacks in the second half, which basically sealed the game. I think it's...

    CL | Round 4: Manchester City - FC Barcelona 3-1

    THIS. It sickens me that the coach, technical director and the president don't realize the *urgent* needs to buy a world-class quality defender, to stop playing it short at all costs, and to defend deeper. I mean the argument that Barca's defense has to go high to support the attack is the most...

    CL | Round 4: Manchester City - FC Barcelona 3-1

    This defense is painful to watch. Horrendous. Defending so badly and so high up pitch, leaving so many spaces behind. And the stubbornness to play it short even under pressure... Why? Why take such a silly risk? Better to lose the ball in midfield than in defense and concede. No top team has a...

    Luis Enrique

    My original bet: Lucho will have more than 14 trophies by the time his fourth year finishes. You're on?

    WC Qualifers 2018 - Europe

    True. I was against Kosovo's admission because now we have two weak teams instead of a stronger one. But we are an independent country after all, and looks like we need a team as well.

    WC Qualifers 2018 - Europe

    We missed a few chances and didn't serve to score to be honest. Defending was pathetic. You can see in individual cases that we have some talent and some potential and we played a great away game to Finland, but this team barely know each other's names. They are completely new; still in the...

    Barca's worst start in over a decade

    Interesting stat. Good to know Real and Atleti aren't far ahead.

    Luis Enrique

    Don't you understand that you can't compare coaches of 4 years in charge to coaches of 2 years in charge the same way? It's like comparing the goals for a striker who played 4 game and one who played 2 games. Yes, in total, Pep has more trophies BECAUSE he was longer with Barca. And I can wager...

    Atlético Madrid

    Sorry I should have qualified, I meant against Barca. They almost always play like that against us. It's annoying coming from a team that aspires to win La Liga and CL.

    Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

    I looked it up and you are correct.

    Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

    They look at the season, not only the year. So in 2015/2016 the story is this: Messi - 41 goals in 49 appearances (0.84 per game) and 23 assists Ronaldo - 51 goals in 48 appearances (1.06 pr game) and 15 assists
