I agree, would be great plan B for many games. But it wouldn't really have helped us out yesterday, because the midfield didn't control the ball. So what we really NEED is a proper backup holding CM/DM, or just splash some cash or Xavi's replacement (yes, yes - I know we will never find 'another...

4 players + Rafa - ha, I wish! I guess we will buy a CB and maybe, just maybe a midfielder or forward. But yeah, I agree. Backup for Alves (Montoya is not suited), new CB, a DM (sell Song ffs), a CM (maybe Suarez could be promoted, or Rafinha), a forward a la Henrik Larsson.

Seriously? Than we would have 5 CB's, somebody needs to go than? 1 LB? We have Adriano and Alba, you mean 1 RB and sell Montoya he wouldn't start in any Liga side, right? 1 holding and 1 box-to-box cm? No DM? If Busi is injured or we need to rotate? Do you really want to keep Song? What will...

Exactly!

He did suck yesterday, honestly he did. But he is also used to us having the ball in the midfield, Iniesta/Cesc/Xavi controlling the ball high up the pitch with ease - yesterday there was no control in the midfield, no support by Alves - what could he do? But I'm worried, he doesn't look...

I agree with many posters, we need to look to the future and make some changes. If Tata is to continue, and I'm still undecided, he needs to get a couple of players that fits his plan. Tbh, Tata has done great in the big games, so why shouldn't he win the 'easier' games? Is it just a matter of...

But all to often, even if our midfield has a great game, he doesn't really make any runs. He is dropping deep, just walks around in front of the opponents midfield. What service are you talking about since he isn't even trying to make a run?

Amateurish tonight, but tbh his first really bad game since last season.

I've said that 1000 times, bad passing, bad decisions, bad defending etc. He is not even good enough to be our backup. He and Song needs to go and replaced with better players.

But he doesn't really offer anything of quality, anything that qualifies him to be even our backup. If Busi gets injured we can say goodbye to the Liga and CL, he is simply not good enough.

The header to 2-1 was bad. But he got passed on many occasions and Pique didn't really help him out neither.

He was poor, just walked around and didn't even try. Fair enough, he got 1 clear chance and scored - but other than that he was disappointing :(

Exactly, I have a soft spot for certain clubs - this also changes from season to season depending on if they play entertaining football - but I live and breathe Barca. If they loose, draw or play bad my whole day is ruined :lol:

Haha, OMG! :lol: And oh, my stream just died - the black screen is more exciting than this game ever was :lol:

People saying EPL is the best league in the world :shakeshead: Maybe it's more competitive, but so is Segunda in Spain...

I can't watch more than 3-4 minutes at a time, it's just shit overload...

I'm just to used to watching Barca play - the first touches and passing from both teams is just horrible overall. The only way Chelsea could match us is through rough and defensive play.

Doesn't surprise me, probably they are really just trying to drive up his price. Shame really, because he is an exciting talent and he would fit right in with the rest of the midgets :)

Spot on! First of all, just like you say the 4-0 "flattered them immensely" - 2 fouls on us from which they scored and than we lost the hunger, especially that screening from Muller on Alba was disgusting. If City feel a little bit cheated by the ref, which I don't understand, they need to...
