I reckon if ETH was Barca coach since 2021 and we played like United does, he would be gone by now. Grass is not always greener on the other side. Xavi looks like a lost bet. This doesn't mean ETH would have been a good one.

Coordinated moves existed mostly the first season for some reason and they were great. seen some analysis about this. bit for some reason it all went away as the second season progressed and its all gone now. so a decline tactically. we made no progress. we won the league due to signings with...

we had a great peak with xavi last season that never repeated. Positional play and coordinated moves were on point. it all went awol and didn't cone back. so, one year later, every tactical aspect has deteriorated. its not the signings. its fatigue and Xavi needs to go.

Clutch master is missed.

Everyone looks better outside Barca. For any player you see and think he is good, imagine a 70% decrease in performance after 3 months with us

Yeah, united must advance as second and we as first. so we can witness a majestic football match between Europe's most badly coached clubs, featuring squads that cost close to a billion.

He is a borderline first division footballer, but looked on par with the rest of the squad. That's how bad everyone was. We can't believe the squad is THAT bad.

copium overload.

Not sure I want to waste 2 hours of my sunday afternoon watching this shit again. Perhaps will postpone for a recorder vieweing on Monday morning during sync meeting. It should be more exciting than that, surely.

He can get free from any marker but final ball or shot is not there yet. Still created more chances with him on the pitch than with ferran and raphinia.

He is class on his own. But we don't have a structure. No player can look good outside their preferred system. Imagine without a system altogether.

So, Atlético, that was a bad fit for him because they played defensively is actually a better fit than Barca because he had more space. That is a stupid excuse. The only role he could play Is behind the striker in a diamond. He is not pacy to be a winger as is used currently. Gavi I guess is...

It is weird that a genius midfielder, the best of his generation has failed so badly at improving the team as a coach but here we are. A great coach can at least make some attacking patterns work. he won't score the goals, but will help players get into good positions. it's their job to score...

Constantly heard the commentators talking about lack of service. What exactly should the others do? Cross perfectly to him every time in a clear goal scoring position? If the ball is 2 cm away from his ideal spot he can't control. if a defender is closer than 2 m, he can't win a challenge...

come on... just go back to Qatar already

Well.. either I an a genius and a fortune teller or the team sucks hairy balls. We need a change of manager ASAP or the season is gone.

We were incredibly lucky with this group. Any other group and we are out.

Shahktat is not a good team at all. and we still look worse than them. Xaviball is over. the team is in shambles.

First games he looked like a real deal. then it all goes downhill. we have to consider the managers input to all this at some point.

Not convinced he is better than depay. slow, weak and inconsistent technique. I believe he has some great moments and wonder goals in his arsenal though.
