Well said. Socio's are to blame for this as well. They had opportunities to get rid of Barto and his corrupt friends yet kept him in power just becauss they dont look past the what have we done lately factor and the classico result.
I always feel everything gravitates towards Messi and everyome is so in awe that they compromise their individual style towards safe choices.
We need less messidependencia. in an ideal team its a great team with Messi in it rather than a mediocre old team that without Messi would be competing...
Ever since the days of mvp have we lack depth. Players making run behind the defeders. Slow sideways safely plodding forward style messidependencia was missing for a while with msn but its worse as ever with this old overpaid squad.
Im bored out of my mind just waiting for Messi to save the day...
Thats even worse but proves my point. I think he missed playing football and is just enthausiastic but be smart about.
We cant have him dead tired or god forbid injured in difficult matches.
Yeah now, at 33 he isnt going to be able to deliver 10/10 performances for 11 steaight matches in a short timeframe.
Our whole la liga title depends on this man. Should be smarter with it.
I always felt valverde f'd thalt up with Dembele. He wpuld play him against park busses and sub him off after 60 minutes cause he cant sub Messi and Suarez when we finalle have space.
I feel Messi has poor energy management. Pressing like crazy wben we are 2-0 up and have Sevilla away on saturday.
He really needs to be rest and subbed at times if we are going to win la liga.
This team is mediocre and messidependencia is high as ever.
That set up doesnt really favor us. It benefits the likes of Atletico, PSG or Bayern more imo.
Also with it being in Lissabon I would not be surprised if everything went perfect for CR again like in 2016.
Good points, the obsession with stats make Cristiano look greater than he is as well. I feel if Batistuta, Henry, Ronaldo or Sheva played for stacked teams with they would have way better numbers as well.
Its a myth that strikers like Zlatan, Aguero, Cavani and Lewa are way better than before...
Viewers only. Yeah the added fans and crowd sounds take the vibe of watching a training match away.
I can imagine for some players the lack of a crowd will be a relief, less pressure. But it also takes away a good part of the home advantage.
