    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Got my wisdom teeth out so I missed the ceremony and spent the last 6 hours or so drugged up :lol: Congrats to Leo! The transition from man to myth is almost complete.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    So refreshing to see a performance like that from Messi. It's like it was taken right out of his best spell in 14/15. He played with his base position at the RW again and was constantly in sync with our play. Arda seems to have really good positional chemistry with him. The trio of Leo, Arda...

    Zinedine Zidane

    Shouldn't be. R9 was a more talented and jaw-dropping player with an unlucky injury record.

    11 - Neymar Jr. - v4

    No. No good can come of trying to poke at and provoke the kind of savages that have the intent to injure you. Diop himself basically said that it's their choice whether or not they want to hurt our players. Why try to invite them to snap and target Neymar when they've got all the animosity in...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Reading this thread you'd think he had just played the CL quarterfinal against Atleti from 13/14 :lol: For the first 65 mins or so, Messi was active and moving fairly well. Moreso than in the last few matches. It was towards the end that he started walking more and, as I said before, that...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Didn't like his movement towards the end and didn't like his insistence on playing centrally but you guys are making it out to seem like he did absolutely nothing. He was easily our most effective attacker and set up a pretty good amount of chances. His first half was better than his second. A...

    Sergi Roberto

    Superb player. Wouldn't mind him partnering Iniesta over Rakitic sometimes, he's earned that much. Though I don't know how the hierarchy will shift with Arda coming in. Iniesta, Arda, Roberto, and Rakitic. Our center midfield is looking very good this season

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Nah this isn't GOAT Messi.. Not close. His throughballs and linkup with Alves were superb and his FK's too, but nothing else was on show today from him (dribbling, finishing, etc.). He kinda usually picks up around January/February while the rest of the team drops. I'd like to see a fresh start...

    11 - Neymar Jr. - v4

    Good playmaking, Bad finishing, and then he put on the skill show in the last 10 mins :lol:... Don't think the assist was intentional with the weird bounce and Neymar's surprised-ish look. But that touch at the end was :worthy:

    Luis Enrique

    The monopoly we have on trophies right now is unfair... He needs to host a barbecue or two :tata:

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Messi doesn't need to run like Suarez or Rakitic, I'd just like him to run like younger Messi. If he committed to having the movement he did when he was 24 or even last season, there'd be 0 question about him or his performance. I don't mind him not tracking back much, if anything he serves as...

    La Liga 2015/2016

    It's hard to imagine that, circumstantially, the start to the 2nd half of the season will be as bad as the 1st. Barca started this season with 2 4-0 losses, the worst defensive spell since the Tata era, a phenomenally unlucky injury streak, and poor attacking form. We bounced back from that and...

    La Liga 2015/2016

    Don't dismiss the fact that Arda and Vidal are joining. We'll have Vidal as our sub in attack (much much better and more dynamic than Sandro/Munir) and Arda likely starting over Rakitic and upgrading our starting 11. Increased squad depth and increased peak capacity, not to mention that we...

    Ronaldo really is awful these days :lol:

    La Liga 2015/2016

    It's great to be up but Atletico are pressing hard for the equalizer. Carrasco is really impressive. Williams has been really important in defending this lead, there is no striker in the world with a workrate as high.
