    Champions League 23/24

    Because it wasn't to our advantage tactically for over a year and it results in losing our best CB.

    Champions League 23/24

    Fuck no. This is the classic "let's play our game" bs that we love. PSG, and almost every other opponents, loves to give ys this control and play the direct way and counter heavily. We need to be balanced and even fairly Conservative at times. And god, I seriously hope Xavi isn't going to do...

    Vitor Roque

    It is a bit ironic that Lewa stepped up after Roque joined the team. :ROFLMAO: Most likely it was due to him the kind of guy who turns up later in the season, though.

    Gold letters will be awful on TV during games IMO

    Joan Laporta

    A lof of the management stuff who leaves goes to better career offers. Most of them were a bit overqualified for us tbh. Barca is big in the sports world, but not in the business world. During Bartomeu era, out guys were rarely recruited by bigger sharks. Would have loved more stability but it...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    He can afford to rest few games in the league. In the play off format, you can accept slipping couple of slots for the sake of rested team in the playoffs

    Nuno Mendes

    Simone Inzaghi

    Allegri was good back in the day, but Simone is more balanced tbf

    4 - Ronald McDonald Araújo

    Barca will have to "unregister" 6 players from first team already: That is free agents Alonso & Roberto, who are meh, Then loaned Felix & Cancelo who were both good value for the team, then Roque and Fermin who were both registered as injury replacement. And we can't use so many La Masia...

    Simone Inzaghi

    Sure, but he is a coach who knows how to put a fairly average/ cheap squad into winning positions. A team of their quality will always have those hit or miss situations, win a close tie they should win or win one they shouldn't. Overnight great coach to have, and it isn't like you can't find...

    Champions League 23/24

    Maybe the grit of CL might have hurt them, you never know. But a broader look, such turn over hurt leagues in Europe tbh. The likes of Osasona, Villarreal and Sevilla became a shell of what they were, hurting Liga badly. Sociedad was consistent and did their Job, Betis was consistent but...

    Champions League 23/24

    PSG are bad match up for us tbh. Their strengths are their speed which can harm us badly, while their weakness is their midfield which we won't punish them for it.

    That can be said about every Liga team not named RM

    Champions League 23/24

    I alm late to the party but sometimes,actually most of the time, it is about the execution of the strategy rather than the ideas itself. The idea of getting a guy like Romeu was inter esque, a cheap old veteran who is doing amazing in the league. The execution was awful. OTOH, Barca FA &...

    Pepe

    Him, Dante and T.Silva are 3 Brazilian CB who has unexpected longevity

    Sergi Roberto

    Nah, lack of squad depth hurt us big time this year. Keeping injury prone players like him is doing more bad than good.

    11 - Raphinha

    Torres does that too when he is healthy, Roque does thar too but he is too green.
