    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    The hope is that Xavi has realized something and it's not a one off adjustment for this game, yes. Lewa being isolated from the "touch the line wingers" is making our attack disjointed. At least we can use one winger like that (Dembele, whos is the only one actually suitable for that role) and...

    Sergio Busquets

    Honestly it was his best game in a very long time, but still managed to misplace passes left, right and center. Real didn't take advantage of those silly giveaways and didn't press at all, which are all good and well, but won't be the norm. Real had a nightmare tactical performance. Don't be...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    His overall game was improved as opposed to that one against Espanyol, which shows he is still rusty. Still isn't 100%. Despite that he was involved in all goals as well as Gavi. Great partnership between them. If he reaches his top form again until the ManU game (plenty of time to do so), and...

    Xavi Hernández

    It was a great display against Madrid and a good morale booster. What is kind of weird, is their approach towards the game and their defensive attitude. To beat this Barca you have two options: 1. Press as hard as you can. Perhaps with the extra midfielder / inside winger we had in Gavi and a...

    6 - Gavi

    Brilliant today. Not sure if this formation will be repeated or it was an adjustment for this game.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    More anonymous than usual, but wasn't taksed to perform every attack and that helps. Could have scored, it wasn't a bad attempt.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    We have to stop trying to compare Dembele with the likes of Mbappe, Neymar Salah, Messi (lol), Gnabry. Take him for what he is and what he can bring to the team. One of the fastest wingers around, two footed, great 1v1 but also with lapses of concentration and not so clutch until now. He is...

    Xavi Hernández

    Even if busquets and Pedri could give killer passes regularly, which they can't, no one would be there to take advantage of them. Without Dembele/raphinia we lack take ons, crosses and danger.

    7 - Ferran Torres

    I believe in him. I believe He can bring us at least 20m back. I believe he is one I'd the most uninspiring players I have seen.

    Xavi Hernández

    So, our best 11 has no wingers, uses busquets, and Gavi at the Wing? Not even xavi would be that suicidal with a team selection.

    Xavi Hernández

    We might believe that for Dembele, even though he looked to not understand why he was subbed. But FDJ, no way he had a discomfort. More so, in the busquets standard substitution minute.. Just bad subs from Xavi.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    What do you do when Dembele has his beat game? Fucking sub him off for Ferran Torres. Ofcourse.

    Sergio Busquets

    Terrorist. Didn't actually cause a goal but didn't help at all. As most times nowadays. No point for that sub. What is Xavi thinking? Is he just being arrogant and tries to be proven right?

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Didn't look good at first, lost chances to shoot, bad teamwork, but got a lucky goal. He was better from then on but still seemed a bit of. We need him to finish chances because his contribution otherwise isn't much.

    7 - Ferran Torres

    How did he managed to feature both in Spain nt and Barcelona? He has no talent whatsoever. Lost the ball a million times causing counters. Didn't complete a single dribble. Can't score on empty net. Can't pass and go properly. Only good actions were the offside (lucky to be there anyway) and...

    Xavi Hernández

    Ignoring the level of opposition, the first 65 minutes were great from us. Some defensive issues but we were really good when on the ball. The xavi decides we need to sub Dembele who was terrorizing the RB for useless Ferran and FDJ who was great at dm and breaking lines with the relic that...

    Neymar Jr.

    Ronaldinho was never that effective on front of goal and showboated a lot too, like Neymar. He has a crazily small peak period. Other than that he was a Joy to watch and transformed the club.

    Frenkie de Jong

    Kounde hasn't been at his beat yet but that defense with a dm dropping back to help while Balde / Alba push up to provide another outlet should be good enough to break the press. Not the most technically gifted, but our other option is Garcia, who is suspect defensively and has a penalty per...
