Griezmann is not a choker, he’s shows up in big games more often than not. I’d like him at Barca, goal scorer, can do it in big games, works defensively, actually capable of passing the ball unlike Suarez recently.

Paulinho is a decent plan B

It works both ways. It will be Ramadan Karim... for benzema and madrid.

Simeone is playing Gamerio ahead of costa for reasons I don’t understand. Also vrsaljko can’t complain about the red, his fault for being reckless.

It was a red card, atletico are there for the taking

Madrid are set for midfielders, and I don’t think isco will leave. I think Barca have a good opportunity here. It would help the midfield in the short term and also add depth. It would also help ease Arthur transition should he arrive. Barca might actually have a quality technical midfield with...

Madrid were definitely trying very hard to win liga for a few years and finally won last season. The only year you can say they didn’t give full effort was this season.

Actually you’re right, Liverpool can’t play against a deep block, which is Madrid’s standard strategy in big champions league games.

Florentino got his act together. He toned down the galactico policy and started making smart decisions. Our board on the other hand has been a complete disaster.

Thiago isn’t the answer at Barca that’s for sure. I don’t remember a big game he turned up in. I’d rather take a chance with Arthur.

I’m not sure I agree, the level of the competition isn’t what it used to be. Bayern are nothing compared to 2013, Barca are below what they used to be. The premier league clubs haven’t been relevant for a while.

Milner and Henderson can deal with Modric and Kroos. Alexander Arnold will hold the flank against Marcelo. Lovren is tasked with Ronaldo.

Klopp gave them problems in the past, and they have pace on the wings unlike the dinosaurs of Bayern. It’s the last hope.

That Bayern team was so much better

Real Madrid are like the Floyd Mayweather of football

Disagree, Barca are better than Bayern.

Tie over

Thiago and verratti are both overrated. The controlling midfielder is a dying breed if this is the best this generation has to offer.

Thiago is a magical controller apparently
