    Luis Enrique

    3-4-3 is a creative way to mask our flaws but only if done correctly which he didn't truly do against PSG. I read that he might try it again? We'll see where he's going with this. All I'm hoping for is that we actually settle into one effective system instead of a successive myriad of them.

    Munir El Haddadi

    He should get a chance against Getafe with Neymar out. Pedro has had a good bit of game time recently too so it's not like he's in dire need of time. Munir on the other hand is caught in Limbo. Low in the pecking order for the first team and likely to be horribly misused by Eusebio in the B team...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    His overall play excelled in all games except the last two, thoroughly outshining Pedro/Neymar in that aspect despite being new here. And the whole striker must score goals dogma is rubbish. A striker is there to help make our attacking play decisive. He has been very creative and responsible...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    When involved, he was a constant danger. Played very unselfishly for Suarez late on as well. The system was chaotic and he still managed to have a high quality performance, Kudos. Played with loads of energy today, saw a lot of running and pressing.

    Luis Enrique

    What the actual fuck :lol:!!! His approach to big games is getting much more radical. I burst out in laughter after seeing the lineup, there's just no predicting this guy. He's crazy. In the 1st half it seemed to work as we kept the pressure high and contained them in their own half but the...

    Jeremy Mathieu

    Not on good form as it is but at LB he's phenomenally bad. Both vs. RM and PSG he's been a laughably bad defender. Alba was shitty against PSG too but he wouldn't have been this bad.

    Moyes's airhead statements and general expression of obliviousness reminds me of this:

    Juan Bernat

    Alaba has some hybrid sweeper/midfielder with license to move between zones but Bernat basically holds down the left flank. Alaba is injured currently so they don't play the sweeper system but Bernat holds the same responsibilities more or less, they coexist well.

    Gerard Piqué

    That 1v1 was the epitome of everything Pique is on a 1v1. Relentlessly retreating and offering them more space until they turn him with no difficulty and do as they please. He doesn't understand the concept of forcing pressure-errors or standing his ground. It's not even about making a...

    Luis Enrique

    The tactics in this game (the 2nd half mainly) mirrored those against APOEL and Sevilla. A lot less rigidity than before. The midfielders actually move from left to right depending on which side the ball is in which is 100000x better for lateral transition than Iniesta almost exclusively staying...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    It's fucking ridiculous. Goal this, goal that, but the real story is how he takes the entire match on his fucking shoulders. 109 touches of the ball today, only less than Xavi and Alba. He destroyed Espanyol, turning every half chance or miniscule space into a beautiful goal or play. It's more...

    Lliga: FC Barcelona - RCD Espanyol 5-1

    I'm a bit hesitant with this lineup if it means that we'll play Rakitic-Iniesta midweek which hasn't proved to be effective at all other than against Huesca. Hope Xavi comes out early so that he can play vs. PSG for at least 60 minutes.

    Juan Bernat

    He's worse defensively but looks right at home in the role he plays for Bayern, produces many good moments there. Him playing LB for Spain largely depends on who is put in the midfield and at RB to cover for him (he needs more covering than Alba does for sure). If it were Azpi on the right and...

    José Giménez

    Had a great goal today (his first in La Liga) and has been fantastic in the past several games he's played due to Miranda's injury. Has a solid understanding with Godin and is progressing at a commendable rate for both club and country. 3rd best CB prospect in la liga after Varane and Laporte...

    Sergi Samper

    Lucho on Sergi Samper: "I don’t rule anything out for him but I see him clearly as a pivote, which is his natural position. You can see all of his features when he plays there.” Fuck off Lucho. Don't be an obstacle in Samper's evolution.
