    Luis Enrique

    Yeah, the difference in quality is so apparent from last season. Not gonna lie, there were several matches that I did not watch last season simply because I was falling asleep about 20-30 minutes into the match. I'm a big Barca fan and will always support them, but the power of sleep is a bit...

    Penal Madrid

    He starts on the right but still cuts into the middle a lot. The big difference is that now, since his initial position is on the deep right wing, it draws all the defenders/mids of the opposing team towards that direction. This creates enough space for our mids and forwards to control the...

    Penal Madrid

    Not sure if srs. Pepe would get eaten alive as a DM. He is a horrible dribbler and his ball retention is mediocre. He is really good at tackling and winning aerial duels, 2 things that are important as a CB. In DM you need to have positional awareness (which he lacks) and ability to retain the...

    Luis Enrique

    Now to prepare for RM! This match will define our league chances! A win with a 3 goal difference and I would be more than pleased! 4 points ahead and even if we are tied up at the season, we would still take the title!

    Pep Guardiola

    Not sure if being sarcastic or not. If so, you can go ahead and look at their squad. Only positions which they lack in are probably backup LB/RB. I think he came just to observe the way we play and also observe Atleti's playing style. Makes sense.

    Ivan Rakitić

    A world class goal that was. Yes, the pass from Messi was magic, but that finish was fantastic.

    Pep Guardiola

    No way he was doing scouting. A big problem with Bayern is that they have way too many world class players for each position. Finding their best first 11 is a huge discussion topic in many Bayern boards.

    Lliga: (El Clasico) FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 2-1

    We need one of Suarez/Neymar on form or we won't win this match. Actually we still can if Messi plays like 11/12 messi, but I bet RM will put at least 2 defenders on him at all times.

    CL: Barca - Man City 1-0 (3-1 agg.)

    I really think during the halftime talk, Lucho told the players to take their foot off the pedal. The 2nd half looked like a practice match to me. It looked worrying but I'm guessing the players and the staff were confident enough that they were going to go through. It could have been an...

    Pep Guardiola

    I found his comments about Barca when he joined Bayern a bit disrespectful. He could've said he's not coming back nicely, but instead twisted it to sound like an asshole. He has been acting a bit douchy now too. In Bayern's preseason tour to US, he had a huge argument with the MLS team coach...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Please, no more players from Arsenal. They are an absolute curse to our club (except for Henry).

    Mesut Ozil

    It's quite sad how much he has declined since joining Arsenal. He used to be compared to Iniesta when he was at RM and was producing some absolutely amazing passes to CR, Benz, and Higgy. That 11-12 season when RM won the league title, was an amazing year for him. Many pundits were claiming he...

    Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

    Yeah I agree with this. His dribbling skills have gone to absolute shit but he is turning into the ultimate #9, trying to make as many goals by being in the right positions.

    Arsenal

    ....by finishing 4th.
