Pedri is neat and tidy and good at circulating the ball but Fermin just seems more aggressive in the final third, making runs into the box and looks to shoot from outside. Think he will compliment Gundo and Fenkie well. He just seems to have a bit of edge to his game in the attacking third.

Seems like he's ditched the 433 and gone back to the box midfield.

Club should appeal the second yellow if possible, way too harsh for a sending off. Pretty ok game otherwise, Alaves were horrible at finishing. Not sure what was the point in playing Christensen at DM unless for extra height at set pieces. Also why play all three of Frenkie, Gundo and Pedri who...

Feels like his camp played us and used our interest to get a better deal elsewhere. Scummy move.

Osasuna is horrible. We should win this comfortably.

This is new territory for Xavi. For most of his playing career he was idolized. Now instead he is being scrutinized and not in a way he is accustomed to and not in a way that he can handle.

How will he motivate the players for the remainder of the term when he himself has already 'quit' and acknowledged this season as a failure? He apparently broke down in front the team before training today. Do they even respect him now going forward? What a mess. What's to say that we won't...

Time to get rid of him. Team needs a fresh start. It's one thing to finish trophyless but missing out on top 4 will be a disaster.

He won't be sacked even though he should be. Laporta is deluded and probably thinks Xavi is the 2nd coming of Pep. Time to let go of this Barca DNA nonsense. Sentimentality is ruining this club.

He seems out of ideas. The team looks disjointed and frustrated. We're not that far from dropping down to 5th in which case he's gone. Nothing would scare Laporta more than missing out on CL revenue next season. When you look at the table Bilbao are closer to us than we are to Girona and Madrid...

Eric's case is interesting but it shows what happens when you have a coach that knows exactly what he is doing and how he wants his team to play tactically. Its clear we have the better individual players but Michel knows how to setup to get the best out of the players he has to work with...

Out-coached and Out-classed. He had absolutely no idea how to respond to what Michel and Girona were doing. His subs were pathetic. He literally stood on the touchlines without a clue.

The team's shape is all over the place. With and without the ball.

The pitch was horrendous. Wouldn't be surprised if they applied too much water intentionally. It just looked skiddy with puddles here and there.

Has to find a way to get Gundogan more involved. He's been invisible for large stretches in games and not as influential as at City.

The goals we're conceding are so frustratingly stupid. It's not like they are dominating us. Both goals were absolute gifts.

Outfoxed by Benitez.

Bad game to rotate and experiment. We should have gone with the strongest team. The new players are still learning to play with each other. Why is Yamal coming in ahead of Raphinha? We are expecting too much from him at this point.

We look clueless in possession. There's no clear plan in the final third other than pinging it from one side to the next. Everyime they bomb forward we look like giving up a goal.

Feckk. This is tough to watch.
