    23 - Jules Kounde

    He has to play the position that best suits the team, we don't have a super stacked squad, so we can't be that flexible. Saying that, it might be our downfall against Manchester. We have exactly enough good players to implement exactly one game plan. We are doing it great and it works but if...

    Liga Round 20: FC Barcelona - Sevilla 3-0

    It's ok to struggle for now against parked busses as long as we win most of the time. 2 things will happen. 1. Teams will realize the system doesn't stop us, even for 1-0. 2. We will get better and better at beating that system. It's early days.

    Frenkie de Jong

    Let's just keep the 4 mids for know, since we don't have the players for 4-3-3. Frankie is good in this system, as all our mids. Dembele is good in this system. Our defense looks more solid. Only lewa has a dip in form, but that could be due to other factors.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    4 against Bayern it is then.

    Liga Round 20: FC Barcelona - Sevilla 3-0

    Nah, this will be 4-0 Xavi special.

    Frenkie de Jong

    Call him whatever you want. De Paul was Messi's water carrier and bodyguard for Argentina, but they wouldn't be WC winners without him. It all depends on what the team needs. FDJ suits the current system beautifully. If he was part of a classic 4-3-3 midfield he wouldn't be good. Just like...

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    The thing is, it's not about the position he plays. We don't expect miracles from him. He can't even perform simple staff. He loses every single battle or 50/50. So many giveaways and not a single positive action.

    3 - Alejandro Balde

    Undisputed talent. Playing safe isn't always a bad thing. With experience he will choose his moments better. He still makes mistakes here and there but the kid is only 19yo.

    Sergio Busquets

    Appearances can be deceiving, and the real test will be Manchester, but we have to say Busi in this system has improved and actually plays really good for his age. Perhaps the type of opposition suits him. Remains to be seen. But let's stay positive.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    A footballer at his physical prime, should be able to handle continuous games, while also getting substituted for rest almost every time. Many players around the world do that for years. Physical injuries can happen. Dembele has a bad past with injuries for whatever reason. I don't see anything...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Here we go again. He again reminds us why it's hard to root for him. Obviously our most threatening player, but cannot stay fit.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    If it was Suarez in his place, the forum would be full of people claiming he messes up all our attacks by heavy touches and failed highlight passes. We have no other option for CF and we might need his solo / long range goals at difficult matches. He does move all the time to create space...

    Sergio Busquets

    Yes, he can be really good. We can't forget he has been one of the best DMs in the world. But he has exposed us in every tough fixture at least once since 6 years ago. When properly covered, aka, all of Pedri, Frankie and Gavi around him, he is still serviceable. Also, we don't have another...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Oh no! Anyway..

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Do we have any news about the injury? He was having his best spell for us just in time for Europa, out luck is never ending. Raphinia must now step up and deliver some of those crosses to lewa.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Horrendous is not the word. Let's put it this way. If he doesn't score he doesn't do much else.

    Mavericky Puig

    He is the missing piece for the best midfield in the world. NOT! xahahahhaxhahahah

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    E have wasted time with many young players in the past. Why would a loan be bad for him? He would get regular playing time and If proven to be good we get him back. Stay with us, having expectations to perform like a Barca 10, doesn't do him any good.

    Spanish Cup Quarter Final: Barca - Real Sociedad 1-0

    This will not work against all teams. We will need to adjust and play 4-3-3 some games and then we are totally out of it. We need a RB better than Kounde is.

    1 - Marc-Andre ter Ansplant

    Made a wrong pass just to flex on the follow-up save. God Tier MatS this season.
