    16 - Fermín López

    It's what we were saying for Spain. For big games put Pedri to AMC and a double pivot with more defensive tendencies. Pedri at AMC gives you the most mileage off the ball, better passing inclusivility with the trade off of a touch of offensive instinct. Barca could do the same. And as always...

    Karl Etta Eyong

    Obviously if you really want to buy him then you pay the clause for 10m and loan him straight out. Register the loss but don't count it against the salary cap. That is unless LaLiga wants to fuck you and you need to register players before you loan them out.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    PSG drew versus Lille at the weekend. They tried rotating the squad and it didn't work out. Brought on the likes of Vintinha and Ruiz but didn't help. Mbappe got the Lille goal to ad a nice little caveat. Suggests two things 1) yes they have the luxury to rotate in Ligue1 but at this stage of...

    Philippe Coutinho

    He also started well for Villa. Done well enough that they signed him, and sharply fell off a cliff.

    Karl Etta Eyong

    Pass. This guy had a 10m buyout which we can't afford. Gets sold for 3m. Then we want him a year later for 30m. :lol:

    Joan Laporta

    They are soon to be announcing the UEFA Super League. So yeah, everyone is sucking each other's whatever they enjoy to suck.

    Hafiz Gariba

    Watched the game and liked him and Baba. But still have PTSD from his Copa Catalunya performance last year. Terrifying.

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    Early last season we had Casado on form. Then latter half seasons we had Eric to bring into midfield who was decent. Yesterday Flick didn't want to change anything. And he's shit scared to bring on Bernal after the PSG shocker. Olmo having a shitter? Stayed on while he (or Fermin) is usually...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Flick knows the defence is not going well. Reason why the CB has changed every game or other game so far this season.

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Another two goals today from around 12 yards out. Sprinting past all the players on the pitch and knocking it first time past the goalkeeper. Incredible player.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    You remember the 90s where the 4231 fell out of fashion because it divided the team into two phases. As football become more physical a more balanced 433 took over for a bit. The offensive team and the defensive team, with the pivots and the front 4 being separated. That's what we're seeing...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    The game wasn't lost because of our press. It was lost because we couldn't deal with being pressed. That's the issue. Our turnovers and our lack of recovery effort as a system. A higher line dies with that.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    True. But we lose even with a deeper line. That's the bigger issue.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Flick is right. You can't cater the system because the players decided they are the fookin' nuts and don't want to put the work in like last year. You have to have hope that the PSG game was a wake up call and they know they have to put the work in again. Today suggests they needed another...

    La Liga Round 8: Sevilla - Barca 4-1

    When the games get combative we have to sort out this Olmo issue and tweak the system. Also slow ball playing CBs with no movement is back. What the hell.

    If we took off Casado for Frenkie, we might have won. Oh wait...
