    Sergio Busquets

    And we had won all games with Song as DM for quite some time, not indicative of how playing Masch in midfield strengthens/weakens us for real tests. I don't doubt that we'll maintain the same or even better defensive solidity, but the purpose isn't just to stack clean sheets. We need to have a...

    Eric Bailly

    He's had good games and he's a good talent. Far from the most intelligent of defenders but he definitely takes initiative and goes at it with aggression. Words like 'special' and 'hero' are definitely too high in magnitude though, even when talking about his potential. And mind you, I've kept...

    Copa semis: Villarreal-Barca 1-3 (2-6 agg.)

    JDS displayed loyalty for far longer than he should have at his own expense. Got literally no minutes as well. I'm sure he has good memories of his time at Barca but his home is at Villarreal and he's not obligated to tiptoe around us. He's not sending a message to Barca by celebrating or trying...

    Sergio Busquets

    Gutted that he likely won't make the Clasico. I love Masch but I just can't imagine the quality of play being nearly as fluid without Busi there. We'll have slower ball movement in the center and have to rely on Mathieu in defense (I don't think Lucho trusts Pique-Bartra pairing). There's an...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    He was more then decent today. 7 dribbles, some great passes, had more touches than anyone else today. He wasn't spectacular by his standards but, by any other player's standards, this would be hailed as an awesome match despite his poor finishing (the one thing that was decidedly poor today)...

    Ivan Rakitić

    Extremely key player on our team, both in offense and defense. Great team player.

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    You beautiful bastard :worthy: This confidence is something, joy to watch him. He should get the nod on Wednesday while Neymar gets rested, shouldn't have been subbed today.

    Luis Enrique

    Good win. Not a perfect game, we did let them back into it during the 2nd half. Although, we can't really expect a lot of 'perfect' in a competition as challenging and hard to control as the CL in an era like this where we aren't the clear 'dominant force' in football. There'll be a lot of...

    Gerard Piqué

    Beasting. Pleassseeeeeee keep it up. We need all the help we can get from the current squad players to show that some areas aren't as light on quality players as we thought. Rakitic and Pique stepping up so much recently are examples of that.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    10 dribbles, 3 tackles, created the chance for the 2nd goal, and had an overall awesome game. That penalty miss will 'taint' this match in terms of reputation but I am full of praise for how he played today. So confused why he'd try a diving header though.

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    So decisive, glad he got an important chance like this to take the goalscoring load on his shoulders and change the match (in a crucial CL away leg no less). Hope he continues this confidence, it helped his all round game as well.

    14 - Javier Mascherano

    He's been great this season and I trust him in our defense but how tf could his game be classified as a positive one. He was beaten numerous times by Aguero. It wasn't just the ones where he was clearly demolished in the 2nd half, there were others where he just could not defend against Aguero...

    Martin Odegaard

    Isco has pretty decent first-step acceleration (evident by how easily he does dribble opponents, demolished Darmian easily yesterday with this method too) but I think a prime Iniesta was definitely more swift. Ødegaard seems to have pretty damn decent pace considering the position he plays. Even...

    Isco

    He's fucking mesmerizing. Has all the classic Iniesta qualities with some added flair and swagger. It's no mean feat for a player to get a standing ovation from away fans. Only ones I know are Messi, Ronaldinho, and Xavi. World class, one of the best attacking mids in football right now.

    La Liga 14/15

    They've hurt us more in the past 3 Clasico's than Ronaldo has. Benzema in particular is always very dangerous against us and Isco excelled in the last two outings. Ronaldo, on the other hand, has clearly not been decisive in any of the recent Clasicos and has had generally underwhelming...

    Why the fuck is Isco so good? Incredibly consistent this season.
