People keep bringing up this luck thing, but did you know that we hit the woodwork 16 times this season? Woudn't that make us unlucky?:thinking:

I get what you are saying, but they should have went for Coutinho way earlier, probably last summer before he has renewed. And that's not just Coutinho, we missed many other oportunities to sign midfielders even 3 years ago, Kroos for example. I mean he was offered for us for 25M and we...

Wow, the end was intense, Ronaldo probably would have scored if not for that Lucas tackle, but 10 point baby:rockon:

But players are aging and decling, who could have thought that Iniesta won't be able to play for 90 minutes every match and stay healthy:thinking:. All summer we were talking that we need reinforments in midfield and now we see the results because of boards inaction.

Don't worry guys, Paco got this.

They should start working on bringing Coutinho, 3 months is clearly not enough for Robert and Segura, so if they start in January maybe they could accomplish something at the end of the August.

They still have solid defence, it's just Atletico has trouble scoring. Couldn't score more than 1 goal in their last 9 matches.

And that's what our midfielders should do - attack? How about passing, build-up play, patients and defensive contribution? IMO Roberto lacks these skills and we already have a midfielder who attacks - it's Paulinho and I would argue that he is even more dangerous with his runs than Roberto is...

Most clean sheets in La Liga:

I think people got paranoid after last season defeats against Juve and PSG and Supercup defeats against RM. And remember when Pique said," I think they are really stronger than us", I admit even I thought, yeah, this is the end of an era. And now they are struggling and we are on top, it's hard...

Yeeeeeeees, nice:rockon:

Crosses are starting

2-1 now lol

Nice goal by Girona

I personally like Lopategui, I think he would do great here, but if the manager like him came here, I bet that the first thing he would do is completely revamp current midfield.

Ok, so tell me who do you think would do better job than Valverde with this amazing squad?

So we added Paulinho and midfield should have improved? He can't control midfield the way Iniesta does, he just does fancy runs and in the box where is trying to score goals and the same is with Roberto. Rafinha had some good games, including the comeback against PSG, at least he could pass.

Good squad like this? We have the worst midfield in years, he is playing Iniesta in every match because others can't string two passes together. We have only 3 center backs of which one is off form and we have 2 long term injuries. You'll see the improvement in team play instantly when Iniesta...

This was an ugly, the team totally colapsed in the second half, it looked like everyone sudenly forgot how to pass. But it was expected without Iniesta, it just no one to connect defence with atttack, Paulinho had some good moments in the first half, but he is no creative midfielder. Coutinho...
