If they contiue with this attitude this will be a season to forget. If only we had a real captain, who can yell sometimes at his teammates and push them harder on the pitch. Iniesta is like a ghost when things are going bad for us. I miss Puyol.

He probably has more touches with Brasil than with Barca. It is logical, because he is by far their best player and in Barca you have Messi, Suarez and even Iniesta who love to dribble past opponents. You can`t have your whole team dribbling all the time, someone has to be more restricted...

I can`t wait to see this guy back in action with Barcelona. He still has some moments when I would run onto the field and beat him with a stick, but has evolved enormously since he came to Europe and plays beautiful football. I would say he is the second best player in the world today and still...

El tridente back in action, Vermaelen and Roberto also in the first team. This could be a good game. :rockon:

Exactly. Well said. Maybe some members will understand now.

I don`t discuss with 5-year olds, so you can give it a rest.

I see it and agree that Messi definitely dragged some opponents from their position. The guy is a magnet for opponents. Just saying that this goal was a product of a number of errors from Bilbao and fantastic team play from our side, not only Messi opening space.

I`m just stating the obvious. There are players closing down Messi, but it isn`t the reason Suarez is left all by himself. If you don`t see that even better from the video, I can`t help you. End of discussion from my side.

No. Watch the video again. Rakitic`s feint moves the defence out of balance, you can clearly see that. They were expecting his lob ball for Suarez and went for offside trap. But Rakitic did a fantastic feint and passed the ball to Alba instead. That was the reason why they didn`t have time to...

In the picture posted above all I can see is a brainfart by Athletic defense. 3 players around Suarez, no one marking him. Nothing to do with Messi. In general I agree with you, Messi attracts a lot of attention from opponents and that creates space for Neymar and Suarez. But not in this case.

As do other players for him all the time. That`s part of the game, create space for your team mates. I don`t know why you always have to put Messi in the picture, like everything revolves around him. It was a beautiful action in which he didn`t participate and because of Rakitic, Alba and...

The goal was due to fantastic ball from Rakitic, great run from Alba and fantastic finish from Suarez. Nothing to do with Messi.

By far the best player in our team today. Everyone else was mediocre at best.

Piece of shit was just waiting for the first situation where he could give him the red card. Disgusting.

Without Alba and especially Neymar, our left flank is pure shit. Neymar`s presence on the left flank by itself somewhat limits the opposing rb to go forward all the time. And he tracks back quite a lot. Although Pedro does have a very high workrate, the opposition players don`t fear him like...

If you are looking at the big picture, it is okay that he made a mistake yesterday if he is to learn from it and think twice in the future before doing some flashy moves. I felt bad for him after the goal, because he is a very likable guy, but defensive solidity starts from the GK and he wasn`t...

Well, by that standards every last one of our CBs is a steaming pile of dog shit, including Pique. They let Sevilla do what they want the other day, with 4 goals conceded and a few more that could easily have gone in. I`m not saying that Vermaelen is Nesta, but with that disaster team around...

Nothing. But it was ter Stegen`s stupid unnecessary flashy move that got the first one for Athletic, and from that moment everything went to shit.

Maybe he isn`t good enough, but this game definitely is not the one to show that. With absolute crap of a midfield and no protection from them, with Adriano and Alves in his retarded day, Vermaelen played quite solid. He sure isn`t Pique at his best, but in that abysmal team performance...

They had to travel to the game, so it`s logical that there`s more of them already in the stands at the moment. Barca fans are probably around the stadium.
