    La Liga Round 25: Las Palmas - Barca 0-2

    Looked like he was trying hard to twist himself into justifying a pen but couldn't.

    La Liga Round 25: Las Palmas - Barca 0-2

    Never fails that Sandro always turns up against us like he has some sort of point to prove every time.

    Ilaix Moriba

    Pretty sure he shared the same agents as Max Meyer who years prior ended up falling into the same trap. His agents didn't care as they got the bag but they still played a big role in his career going south.

    Champions League 2024-25

    It looked like Kompany was trying to deploy a much more aggressive Press/Counter pressing team in the vein of what Flick's doing at the start of his Bayern reign. But the team was very shaky and you can see it when we beat them in the CL as both Kim and Upa were getting shredded consistently...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Probably, Even Neymar got a lot of stick during the second half the season as he went through a rough run of form for a bit. Also, the incoming transfer ban we spent a lot of money and at the time there were question marks on guys like Rakitic, Mathieu, and Verm and no one knew who the fuck...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Which time? I was here during the 2014/15 season and the first part of the season was pretty rough on here, especially on the chat. We weren't playing that well for the most part and guys like Rakitic got a lot of shit for not being an upgrade to Cesc at the time. We didn't start to feel good...

    5 - Pau Cubarsí

    Cubarsi seems fine on an Athletic and pace aspect IMO. Sure he's not Araujo in that regard but he's no Lenglet nor Pique in terms of slugglishness either.

    24 - Eric García

    The loan to Girona paid off for him as it got him the continuity he needed to adjust to top-level football. Under Flick while he's not consistently a starter he's gotten even better.

    Champions League 2024-25

    There are very few teams out there that can perfectly sit for 90 minutes straight up defending and giving the ball to Real the majority of time. Flicks approach is you basically have to keep up the pressure while in the back of your mind that yeah Real's front four are still very dangerous...

    6 - Gavi

    I'd argue that fellow La Masia players such as Casado, Fermin and Olmo ironically made Gavi's inclusion into the starting 11 insanely difficult. Casado can work with Pedri and or Frenkie and isn't a complete headless chicken and still has that tenacity without going insanely overboard with the...

    6 - Gavi

    He needs a lot of personal coaching and some time on the bench before he can start again. Because he hasn't shown anything that he's a better option in the #10 spot than Fermin, Olmo, and Torre like at all. Torre has only 373 total minutes this season and has contributed a lot more in his small...

    6 - Gavi

    He was much better with the ball in the last few months of Koemans reign and the early Xavi years. Crazy how much he's lost the plot.

    8 - Pedri

    - De Boer: "Even if you are not a Barcelona fan, you will love Pedri. Football is getting more physical, but there will always be space for boys like him. He is small, he is skinny, but he will turn away from every opponent and he thinks extremely quickly."...

    Lmao Dani Ceballos, this a guy that managed to be booted away from the National team for being a total cancer in the locker room because he couldn't handle the fact there were players much younger than he is being better than him.

    8 - Pedri

    It's not all surprising once he was moved into an influential deeper role he's been performing at a world-class level this season. He just isn't a #10/SS like he was being used mostly in the last couple of years. Leave that #10/AM role to the likes of Olmo, Fermin, Torre, Raphinha and Keep...

    Premier League 24/25

    Pep is out of ideas and this current city team looks completely dusted mentally and physically. Looks like Gundogan used everything he had left in the tank playing for us last season.

    8 - Pedri

    Lmao it reminds me back years ago when Madridistas were pulling out the Isco vs Iniesta stats claiming Isco was clearly the superior player because he had more goals and assists than Iniesta during the course of the season. (2014/15)
