    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    We play nothing like that France side, though.

    FC Barcelona B (Barça Atlètic)

    Who's our #7 on right wing? Not impressed. Puig seems to have a target on his back.

    Arturo Vidal

    Valverde is like your dad who yells at you for throwing out old sour milk because you can still use it for cooking

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    Were Rakitic and Coutinho within passing distance of each other at any point during the game? Why is he insisting that our midfield is spread so thin? When you're playing midfield and defending against a possession based team, the hardest thing is to keep track of how the opponents midfielders...

    Arturo Vidal

    Why the fuck is he playing in this physical shape? He came on when our whole team was burned out and still managed to look like an old man.

    Lliga Round 2: Valladolid - Barca 0-1

    Under the circumstances, we had a pretty good first half. More pace in the play than last game. Had some nice one-touch play. Even saw a few triangles. Coutinho facilitates so much. After the goal, I think it was stamina more than tactical decisions that made us step off the gas and let them...

    Lliga Round 2: Valladolid - Barca 0-1

    A complete shitshow for many reasons, but a performance that was still an improvement over the last one. Nice to see us put in a fight, although I doubt many of our guys ran 11+.

    Lliga Round 2: Valladolid - Barca 0-1

    Alba has been immense defensively

    Ivan Rakitić

    I agree that he was a good purchase and that stuff like starting Xavi instead of him in that first Clasico was a mistake. I don't think he was the key to everything suddenly falling into place in the second half of 14/15 tho.

    Ivan Rakitić

    I like him. He's trustworthy and intelligent, but he's not top level and we could get easily get better.

    Ivan Rakitić

    There's along fucking way from winning the CL and being eliminated, humiliated, dominated by vastly inferior teams. Last season, we were not contenders for CL. Looking like we could win it is not an unrealistic expectation when we have our budget and Messi.

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    This season, let's do a count of how many performances that truly does justice to the talent in our squad. I'm not talking aesthetics here. The criteria is full 90 minutes of us looking like the best team in the world (or second best, if you think City's squad beats our in terms of raw talent)...

    Mavericky Puig

    I've envisioned us bringing Pimienta the season Messi leaves/retires to embark on a new path. Wouldn't mind terribly that he comes before, though.

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    I think that La Liga teams parking the bus against us and not attacking us is a main culprit for our lack of hustle. It's too easy to set Messi magic in motion, when there's really no build up required for us. We've become so lethargic because in most games, we don't really have to hustle and...

    Sergio Busquets

    If you're certain that something is true, you want it to become apparent, so that the problem can be adressed.

    Ivan Rakitić

    Busquets importance is still undoubtable in our team and it's obvious how disoriented we get when he's on there anchoring everything. That we have grown dependant on his qualities isn't the same to say that we can't become a better team overall without him. Him and Rakitic at the same time...

    10 - Lionel Messi - V6

    With Malcom, Dembele and Rafinha all available options on the RW, he should be able to catch some rest once in a while. We have a great depth across the board this season compared to the last three. Once we started clicking in 14/15, being able to rely on Xavi and Pedro was pivotal to the...

    Lliga | Round 01: FC Barcelona - Deportivo Alavés S.A.D 3-0

    I really don't think the type of football we're playing is doing us any favors defensively. First, let's face one thing: when we have players like Rakitic and Busquets in the midfield, we're never going to be a solid defensive unit. Even if our workrate was acceptable, we're simply too ponderous...

    Gerard Piqué

    he is scared of squaring off when opponents come running at him with the ball and it's affording them all the time in the world to pick out the final pass or get a shot off against us.
