Thanks for quantifying what I was trying to say. Italy has proved brutal for Barça in the past. The Giuseppe Meazza, Milano is our toughest possible away fixture. Fingers crossed for a win! Visca Barça !

It's always brutal for Barça in Italy, especially in the San Siro.

This isn't the Tebas league. Not yet anyway. EE will demonstrate increasing on-field violence the more desperate they get. They are used to having things their way.

EE have nothing to offer but violence.

Smells like a defeat—possibly a draw. I hope I'm wrong.

Valladolid should have been on the end of another spanking vs Celta Vigo. I don't want to burst our bubble, but it seems that Valladolid is a substandard side. Girona will be more like our first three games. Close. I hope for no more injuries.

Barça si, Laporta no.

YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

How are we playing?

Me!

We can't survive this.

Pedri is massively overrated!

Own goal.

Expert summary. Barça don't score goals because our attack lacks quality. It seems Xavi has no taste in forwards.

As someone who has seen a fair bit of Fermin Lopez I can tell you he provides enormous energy with his performances but I expect the inaccuracy of his passing to frustrate you in the medium to long term.
