10 - Lionel Messi - v2
Yea I've noticed this as well. He's definitely not as deadly/godlike as he was last season, so far. I would chalk up at least part of it to his new son... but I wonder what else it might be. Throughout the whole season I have yet to see him look as ridiculously good as he did last year... -

Xavi (bossed the whole game) Messi (off first half, great 2nd half) Pique (damn we missed him) -
Cesc Fàbregas
Hopefully Tito won't pigeonhole himself and has the balls to take a risk and start Cesc in one of those games, where it may be tactically advantageous. Plus if it doesn't work out, who better to come off the bench than Iniesta or Xavi? As legendary as they are, sometimes a different weapon is...- Vapor

14 - Javier Mascherano
Yes exactly. While there are certainly better CB options... let's not forget how clutch he was last year when so much of the team was injured. Mascherano was a straight beast, regardless of who we were facing. I will say that this year he has been off form, compared to the excellent season he...- Vapor

10 - Lionel Messi - v2
I wouldn't agree with that at all. Remember the shot of the two of them joking around and bromancing together on the bench earlier this season? Plus they've made some great plays together. In games where things are heated, its normal for players to get a little frustrated at eachother. It's... -
Gerard Piqué
haha. True that. I thought Pique looked great today... I disagree that Puyol = 3 Pique's. On form Pique is invaluable to us... his presence on the field was immensely noticeable. It's funny just how much better he is at that position than everyone else who tries to play it, next to Puyol...- Vapor

Xavi Hernández
Same here. People are saying "what can you do against the wall"... but there are many times during these games where there is a striker in a perfect position for a sharp pass but instead Xavi or Iniesta either don't see it or ignore it completely and pass it sideways. Yea, I know it's easier to...- Vapor

Cesc Fàbregas
I saw an interesting moment near the end of the game. Where we got a corner kick, and Cesc was running to go take it. You can tell he wanted to take the initiative and just take it quick... he was close to kicking it... but Xavi came over and took it for him. IT was kind of an awkward exchange...- Vapor

Messi Cesc Pique Yes, even though the latter two only played about 30 mins. I honestly thought those 2 were the best on the field when they came on. Cesc was all over the place... and Pique's presence was just so solid. He seems to have had the best mentality on the team in those urgent last... -
David Villa
I think he'll be even more deadly when Celtic is run down and tired. Hopefully he doesn't come on too late in the game, hopefully he comes on start of second half or at 60 minutes or so. But I actually think this is really smart. Keep the firepower in reserve for a while... the impact will be...- Vapor

10 - Lionel Messi - v2
Page glitch again already? Messi is creating glitches in the matrix ffs. I thought he was quite poor last game, but even still, one of the best players out there. And he got better at certain parts in the game. Either way, no need to worry, that was a one off situation. Messi is Messi... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v2
Exactly. He was so off in that game, worst I've seen him play in ages. Though I chalk that up to his newborn son being born the day before... probably a bunch of factors going on and his concentration was lacking. I don't think it's any real problem... he'll come back banging in the next game or... -

Isaac Cuenca
Cuenca is awesome, can't wait to see him and Thiago start ripping shit up again. They bring a real flair and fire to Barca that we sometimes lack.- Vapor

Cesc - Really finding his mojo. Everything about his game was on point, including his defensive effort, and his attacking was excellent. Adriano - Great in defense Pedro - Made some solid runs, beautiful assists... did well today.
