I think this is a factor too. Some players probably do feel overconfident after nearly winning the treble last season. The hardest thing in sports is to maintain your level and win repeat trophies.

Mendes and Hakimi alone destroyed our team mostly due to their athleticism and physicality. It's just the way it is, hate it or love it. Adapt or lose.

To be fair, nearly all top teams are playing this way. They require far more athleticism than ever before. What he's doing isn't much different than the likes of PSG, Liverpool, Man City, Bayern. It's more so the way modern football is rather than a Flick tactic.

Scoreline is too flattering

He needs to be back at his best or we are truly fuked at el clasico

Ya, there's something wrong with the Montjuic and I do not know exactly what it is. It never "feels" like a home game for us there. The sound acoustics makes the away area sound way louder than it should be.

There is only one player that fits the bill and has the potential to be a legend at this club: Julian Alvarez.

He's at the Barca Femeni vs Bayern Munchen Womens match. What a player, supporting all clubs of Barca. True Cule.

MLS Cup will be very difficult given how horrible their defense is. That CB Falcon always gets me triggered, he is terrible. Also, Suarez can barely sprint, the man's knees are done.

Sacrificed his knee for a Balon D'or.

My point is neither the board or the fans will take a trophyless season lightly (if it does happen). He is not Catalan, not Spanish, not Latin. No one will take it easy on him. He has no "biases" in his favor.

You know I was thinking if we fail this season and Liverpool fail too, I could easily see him going there. He will have the budget and the players to play exactly the system he wants. I do not see the fans and the board taking any failure lightly of both clubs. I could see Xavi coming back and...

Ya gotta disagree with Birdy, Raphinha is a wonderful player that we really lucked out on (so rare with our low IQ board). He is key for Brazil NT too now, Ancelotti knows best.

I thought that would be after PSG but sadly it wasn't. I don't think this is our season. Let's just hope they give it their all vs RM or it could get ugly

You sure you're following the same club as I am? It's been more than a decade since our last European cup. Messi era/Pep era was the exception, not the rule. I will gladly take even 1 CL with this era of Barca footballers

Laimer and Davis FB combo is very underrated, only because not many people pay attention to Bundesliga. I think they are easily better than Balde-Kounde too, but that still doesn't take away the fact that is very important in modern football: Availability. Availability is just as important as...

I think a lot of people forget that the whole squad from 08/09, 10/11, 14/15 had a right to brag. They won trophies and made opposition look like fools! These players have a long way to go to reach that. Even the likes of Pedri and FDJ have nowhere reached that status yet. Luckily, age is on...

100 %

There is zero excuse for these players to be knackered. The extended summer holidays that Barca had might've done more harm than good. Should've played the CWC to keep the legs fresh

Balde won't, no. Too injury prone.
