Raphinha was in the counterattack with 5 teammates when Yamal decided to take the shot and expose us if we lose the ball. So, nobody could track back. Defense was left alone after our counterattack and lost ball.

We had a counter at 3:2 with 5 players in the attack. Raph was alone on the left. Instead of time wasting, faking fouls or going with the ball near the corner flag and doing that classical shithousery when you waste time near the corner flag... No, Yamal takes the ball and shots and goes for...

I am watching all Barca's KO matches in Europe since 1994's defeat vs Milan. And there is that feeling in the air that Barca is eternally underachieving. There isn't a club or NT team (except Netherlands) who has the worst ratio in terms: how good you are versus how many big titles have you...

He is not a bad player. He is retarded in the last 10 days after the last El Classico. Your post doesn't make sense. So what if he was good during the whole season? If Sczesny was good for 6 months and he concedes 3 stupid goals in a key match, would you say: no biggie, he was good for 6...

Neymar was also creating everything and hogged the ball at Psg all the time. And won nothing. That style of play will inflate player's personal stats but will hurt the team. In the last 15 minutes, 3 players were on Yamal. Instead of passing to the other flank, he tried to dribble through 3...

Kid totally lost his head after El classico Not sure if true, but I have read his quote: this year, no matter how much we are losing, we will win in the end. I knew we are dead after that quote He turned into Neymar vol2 since then. Ballhogging, showboating, not passing to anyone, playing...

With Pep's and Klopp's style of pressing, your team can play only for 3-4-5 seasons. Their legs are gone after that. Then a coach needs to rebuild or move to a new club. Pep has nowhere to move and he doesn't know how to rebuild. And then you get an old, drained, tired version of what was...

I wouldn't call it the 2nd cycle. Because when he came, he needed 2-3 years to buy the type of players whom he wants. And today, his team is still full of players from his first 1-2-3 seasons at City. Imo, a true new cycle will start only when he'll replace the core players. And he has never...

Trossard was good tonight, true ;)

Barca always beats Madrid, even if we end 20 points behind them. It is an eternal hate. Liverpool won vs Real at a group stage. Real is a different beast in KO matches. If we get KO'd, only Liverpool and maybe Psg can harm them.

Imo: 1. true, divorce is surely a strong reason for his problems 2. but also, he is a man who was hailed as the greatest coach ever, the innovator, the genius. And suddenly, his football is falling apart, nothing is working, the opponents have figured them out, he is breaking negative records...

Real didn't even have to do anything. Just sit back and wait for a few defensive mistakes and kill them on counters. Pep is currently where Barca was in let's say 2017-2018-2019. Sterile attacking, yet giant holes in defense on counterattacks. Also, Pep doesn't look healty. That constant...

This team is too hot and cold. After a good run in the first part of the season, they started to buy their own hype and went into a horrible run of matches. Our fall started after a win in El Classico. Now the same story. Trashing of RM in a semi-important supercup match and we will play bad...

Our last defensive action was a total tactical chaos. No one defending on the left side. Balde was in attack. No one defenfing on the right side. Kounde was in attack. Defensive midfielder Eric moving to the left and trying to stop their counter. Balde not marking Molina who came from behind...

Lewa is bad. But tonight, we conceded two goals: 1. after Casado's unlucky clearance 2. Balde forgetting that he is supposed to mark his man in 3 vs 3 counter in the 95th minute There isn't one, simple reason why we are losing. There are 10 reasons. But having too many youngsters is surely...

Aside from doing nothing for 90 minutes, he totally forgot his marker in the 95th minute. He was covering him and then suddenly just forgot about him and his marker freely unmarked passed to Sorloth. Insane. His future is being a squad level of player for Getafe.

1. too many youngsters. I know, we don't have money. But now we are paying the price. A lot of these kids don't know what to do under pressure. 2. we don't have enough of natural finishers. Besides Lewa, Raphinha and maybe Olmo, other players are more playmakers and possession recyclers than...

Pep had some bruises on his face after the match. Either he had really hurt himself, as he said. Or, more likely, he had a fight with someone in a locker-room.

I got tired of Barca and Barca's style. But more like: of Pep's Barca and trying to chase Pep's Barca for a decade. I grew up under Van Gaal's and Rijkaard's Barca, so post-Pep's Barca was slightly too extreme for me possession/technical/dwelling on the ball wise. For example, for years, I had...

Doesn't look like a typical DM but plays surprisingly well for now.
