    Ousmane Dembélé

    Too injury prone. Don't know how you can have your offense built around a guy whos not available. Alternatives, if available, should be considered.

    La Liga Round 29: Getafe - FC Barcelona 0-0

    Injuries to FDJ, Pedri, and Dembele has seen Barca's level of play decline heavily. The club has gutted the bench to try and have a good starting XI, but they've even failed in that with terrible transfers.

    24 - Eric García

    Being tried out at DM is very different than being good at the position. It's La Masia loyalty that is making Xavi give Eric another chance to redeem himself.

    Xavi Hernández

    Tebas probably thought that Real Madrid would sign Mbappe or perhaps Haaland and give La Liga another young marketable superstar, but when Madrid signed no one- media partners and sponsors probably told Tebas to get some more star power and make their sponsorship deals worth it.

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Good lesson for the club, media, and fans to not start gassing up La Masia talent prematurely.

    Frenkie de Jong

    But would Xavi still use him as a starter if Pedri and Dembele were healthy, and Raphinha wasn't underperforming this season as a winger? Not entirely sure.

    Sergio Busquets

    He should do what Xavi and Iniesta did and move on from Barca now. Rather he moves to the MLS this summer instead of signing an extension.

    Xavi Hernández

    The only thing that would've mattered today was the result and Xavi got the W. Team spirit looks good too and seems like the squad has good camaraderie among themselves. Building something special and hopefully, Barca can have a decent summer window to strengthen the squad, despite the financial...

    Europa League

    Not technically Europa League, but Villarreal fans pretty unhappy with Quique Setien getting Villarreal knocked out of the Conference league.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    It did feel like post-Neymar that Messi and Suarez were allowed to play their own way while everyone else had to do the grunt work for them. The pace of play was so slow and it was pretty much giving Messi the ball and having him grind the play to a halt, while he and Suarez tried to do their...

    1 - Marc-Andre ter Ansplant

    He was great. Even from the shots from RM that weren't on target, Ter Stegen still showed great reflexes in reacting to those shots.

    11 - Raphinha

    That's one thing I appreciate about him. He isn't sulking away in a corner when he is struggling. Still puts in the work.

    4 - Ronald McDonald Araújo

    Such a strong and powerful thoroughbred.

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Seemed like Ferran and maybe another player got frustrated at him. Trying too hard to prove that he is still a guy with superstar potential.

    Xavi Hernández

    The 2nd half was almost from the Valverde era. Just a constant barrage from Real Madrid and Barca unable to muster any sustained attack. Only difference was that most of Barca's players are a lot more mobile compared to the geriatrics from a few years ago.

    Xavi Hernández

    Regardless of what happened today, I think he is going to be the manager for next season as well so hoping he learns something from his first full season in charge just in terms of what his vision should be and better identifying players in the transfer market. The noose is going to be pretty...

    EL: Manchester United - FC Barcelona (4-3)

    Barely created anything in the 1st leg, created pretty much nothing in the 2nd leg. Failed the litmus test in Europe again.

    Sergio Busquets

    Too slow and is dragging the team down. People used to praise another slow player like Pique having great defensive games the past few years, but it was obvious how his lack of speed(plus Lenglet's) was letting opposition players dribble comfortably into the Barca half and set up. Need to get...

    23 - Jules Kounde

    He was poor defensively in the World Cup, getting dusted by Tunisian players, and its worrying that form has continued since.

    Franck Kessie

    On a completely different wavelength compared to his teammates. No synergy with them. Doesn't bring anything individually either.
