I get the miss, it was a good shot marginally out. He should have hit the second chance harder, but it happens. The last chance though, you have to pass there, it's obvious you will be blocked and have 3 free players on all sides. Apart from that, the blame is obviously not on him, but let's not...

Not sure Mou will be ok with a team of teenagers and not sure Barca fans want anything to do with him. Also, his game style is not aligned at all with Barca's, perhaps a bad fit altogether.

C' mon, he was against really great attackers all game and did great. The clearance was just unlucky to be fair. He is not the one to blame for the result. Actually, if we want to put blame, Araujo will have his fair share and for me Lewandowski and then Cancelo. - Araujo for obvious and already...

Shouldn't the replacement be already preparing and planning the squad along with the technical stuff? The season is over, might as well bring someone now.

Surely don't miss EV for CL return legs. Other things could be argued but this... not even close.

Ferran had no chance to do anything this game, but he also looked a level below everyone else on the pitch. Perhaps for a mid-table clash he is ok as a sub.

I would rather a more conservative player with no wild moments at LB than Cancelo. If he was a winger ok, but he must understand he is a defender. You can't make wild challenges in the area (even more so when dembele was going nowhere and heading away from goal). The penalty itself is not 100%...

Oh my boy... I literally thought "we are doomed", the minute he was subbed off instead of Lewa. No one to hold up play, no one to dribble.. How can Xavi miss this? Araujo is to blame 50% for this loss. But this change was not the right one, and it's not hindsight. The kid will have his chances...

Did not win most duels this game. Got some fouls and most importantly missed the important chances the striker needs to score.

He did make some mistakes last game. we need him to be 200% against QSG.

Again, not sure if feasible in any way, but keeping Xavi for another season and landing Klopp for the next one would be the best play. If none of this is possible just try to not go a step back again. Not sure what that option would be currently, I hope the club people do.

hope he is out of the squad list for this one so Xavi doesn't get tempted to use him not even for 5 minutes. Feel bad saying this, he looks like a good guy, but he could destroy us if he played.

Start of game is crucial. we tend (in the past at least) to start very cold, slow and calculated which is bad if the other team is out for blood. my opinion would be to surprise them with really aggressive first 5-10 minutes so they don't get over confident. confidence is something you don't...

nahhh... caught trolling red handed, but it's ok. keep up the good work. forum is OK with it.

This must be some kind of money laundering business or it doesn't make sense Goe professional scouters determined he is worth millions.
