    Quique Setien

    Yes, the players we had were significantly better than what we currently have. That is obvious since they didn't drop to EL for two consecutive years but were on the verge of a cl win if not for one if the worst misses in football history by Dembele and a meltdown in anfield. Our current squad...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Will grant him the title of "better than Setien" if he manages to win points against Real. The Shepard did it with a lesser squad. Time to shine big nose.

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Still nothing special (I am being kind) playing close to his best position. The kid shows nothing special at all currently. Take the number 10 away, it's too heavy.

    Frenkie de Jong

    Good actions until the goal, with energy and drive. Then everything went to shit, as with the whole team. We are missing in game leaders and a plan after we score and teams press us. Frankie was as invisible as Busi and Gavi after the goal. All really bad. Pedri was more involved but not in a...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    Closing in one a whole month since the undisputed goat lifted the world cup with players like Molina at his side.

    1 - Marc-Andre ter Ansplant

    Nice one!! The dude with constant shit posting (in multiple forums) believes he has a life. Once he gets a job, post/day will drop.

    Xavi Hernández

    We can look at la Liga results and think that we are pretty good, but if anyone watches the games, it becomes obvious we are hanging by a thread. Last game when Atletico pressed, xavi tried multiple changes and the players just couldn't string two simple passes together. Pedri overheld the ball...

    Franck Kessie

    I don't know what his best position is but the man can't be bothered to move fast. He is sluggish, laid back and relaxed. I doubt this would change at any position.

    3 - Alejandro Balde

    He suffered alone in that side and had some mistakes. Would be better with someone actually covering on the left instead of Pedri.

    8 - Pedri

    He looks out of breath in second halves. The run for the goal was golden. But then proceeds to keep the ball too long for no reason.

    Franck Kessie

    We need to get rid fast. No urgency at all, no skill, no speed, not going into challenges, only one touch pass to get rid of the ball. One of the worst mids we ever had.

    Xavi Hernández

    That was some 65 minute suffering. Good first minutes until Atleti starting pressing then we weren't able to keep the ball at all.

    Xavi Hernández

    We will still be first even if we lose i think. But a win could turn the tide for us. We need a big win vs a big club. They players need that morale boost to believe in themselves and in Xavi.

    Quique Setien

    A good result vs Madrid means jack shit for the master tactician, 4d chess playing shepard. He made terrible calls while he was with us and the team regressed badly. Also delivered us the worst defeat in our CL history while having players that were still pretty good, probably better than...

    Thanks!!!

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Legit question. Can Dembele provide runs behind the defense or only expect the ball at his feet to make plays? So you think it's due to instructions or it's just his way of playing. With such speed and explosiveness he would be a great asset if he just move his ass and made some runs, to open up...

    8 - Pedri

    Isco level is pretty good for our current state. Until we get past the obsolete way we try to play football we are never going back to top anyway. The meta had changed and we are still trying to play some discount version of pep ball with players not even half the level of those we had then...

    Kylian Muppet

    What is quality of a forum really? Having only soft opinions not hurting anyone's feelings? It's closer to the real world as it is, and no need to use ignore lists or anything. If You don't agree with someone or find his opinions racist/bigoted, just don't bother reading if you can't stomach it...

    8 - Pedri

    We have heard these arguments again and again. Yes, most young players won't become world class. Yes, Barca fans have wild expectations from our younger players. Yes, people can't improve everything about their game after a certain age. After all that, Pedri is regarded one of the greatest...

    Eto'o vs Suarez : who was Closer of the ballon d'or ?

    Why soy we put Ronaldo at his own tier.. I get the immense talent and one wonder season he had with us, winning jack shit, but after the injury he was average. That is a "potential" tier. In real life, he never lived up to it. Tier 1: Eto, Suarez, Benzema, Haaland Tier 2: Henry, Drogba, Villa...
