    That xG thing seems to be good for nothing to be honest.

    Arturo Vidal

    Double standards by EV if we believe that Arthur was penalised for bad off field behaviour but Vidal gets rewarded for it. Either Arthur wasn't penalised for bad behaviour but for tactical reasons and all claims about him are bs, or EV is a little cunt that bends over for seniors and takes out...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    The only relevant thing I can find about this, is a study that claims average height has grown by 10cm in the last 150 years. It doesn't even speak about even distribution of that growth. Which means about 0.67cm per decade. So, from 1980s to 2010s, assuming even distribution, which we have no...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Haven't seen Maradona play for even a season so not much to say about this. From footage reels his ball control, acceleration and speed are not even in the same league as Messi's..

    Frenkie de Jong

    Fdj not good enough for EV. And we are told to trust his judgement about lineups..

    Nelson Semedo

    Lost faith in Todibo.. I bet this is bulshit, as he hasn't played at all and when he did he showed great prospect. Many improvements needed but he has some great attributes.

    Ivan Rakitić

    But even with this drained out team of elders and bad presidents coaches, sporting directors etc, we were one goal away from another CL final and most probably victory. That was without FDJ and Griezmann. Which should mean that with a better coach, even this shadow of the legendary Barca would...

    Sergi Roberto

    Also playing Bob and Semedo together is just wrong. They occupy the same space, the make the same runs. It is like playing with 10 men. He should have chosen Bob for this one as he was more in form and usually does good against Madrid. that would leave a space open for the RCM. I believe Alena...

    Ivan Rakitić

    But pressing is a team effort. What happens with us, is that some players decide to press while others don't and vice versa. It's not a structured pressing pattern. Messi did press hard for his standards this game and did win the ball a couple of times. But it's mostly running in vein when it's...

    Your choices for valverde replacement

    I have already said this but let's go again. For me, it is not even a matter of EV's abilities, which I don't rate that much, since I've since him a long time before he took over Barca. It is about the broken mentality of the team. They might like him and feel cosy and warm knowing the man for 3...

    Frenkie de Jong

    - First and foremost, put Rakitic, Vidal, and Dembele for sale in the winter transfer window. Cash in while they still have some value, because they won't fetch us any money if we are too late with this. At this point, you have got rid of players who offer little, are highly paid and complain a...

    Frenkie de Jong

    It is obvious we need an overhaul which should have started last season. But we go about splashing 200m every summer like we are only missing a piece of the puzzle. Neymar not joining was a blessing, pure luck.

    Lliga | Round 17: FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 0-0

    FDJ got frustrated a couple of times while expecting a one two, which would releave all preassure and was an easy pass, and never got it. Always back passes from Lenglet and Rakitic. They play too safe for Barcelona.

    Your choices for valverde replacement

    I really find it difficult to believe we will win anything this season. Messi will not be able to keep his consistency for all the matches, which means we lose the only cheat code we have. After a performance like this clasico, it is hard to believe we can win the league. Copa del Rey, is not...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Pure Genius.. Your simple mind cannot comprehend concepts like this. Be humbled!

    Arturo Vidal

    He can't pass to save his life though. We should aim higher as a club.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    When I saw this on tv I though it is abysmal, to have a player like Messi and force him to play so far behind. No possession whatsoever. He tried his best as far as I saw..

    Nelson Semedo

    You still don't know what a manita is? After all those lessons Barca gave you? Bad bad student. Santa won't come for you.

    Lliga | Round 17: FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 0-0

    Both managers finishing the game with 2 substitutes. It felt like a friendly at the end. Boring stuff.
