so it's a 4-4-2, which with Messi is really a 4-5-1? provided it's not a 4-3-3 with Griez on the wing, in which case it'll really be a 4-6-0

incredible to think that Pedro could still be playing in the starting 11 if he'd stayed here that's how little we've progressed

Been tired of watching him in the national team for years. Of course the universe sends him so I can be tired of him for Barca as well.

I am beyond frustrated whenever I have to watch him play for the Danish national team. There is absolutely no way in hell he is anywhere near good enough to play for us.

In the training vid for today, he showcases this dipping knuckleball shot at Ter Stegen. Looks pretty deadly, looking forward to seeing him whip it out in games.

Still can't believe we nearly went undefeated that one league season. If Valverde did have a special power, it was to subdue games into this listless affair that somehow lulled opponents into passivity. A stalemate of contentment and mutual security that allowed Messi to launch his swift...

What a presence he has on the pitch. Calm, hard working, clever and aggressive at the same time.

He had loads of space over there on the left flank. He needs to make those runs, but this is something we need to work on as a team, too. To exploit the open areas instead of insisting on breaking through our favorite channels.

why not?

Where's Ansu?

Looked a little sharper and more eager today but still far off.

Pretty good game by us. Starting to see results from the improved physical work in trainings. We had a lot more fuel left for the last part of the game than we usually do. What we should focus on is finding ways to streamline attacking moves. If these combinations and runs are done with...

at least someone has a bit of fight in them

We know he still wants to win every game but he honestly doesn't look like he's enjoying football at all. Every effort seems like hardship. He finds no intrinsic motivation anymore. Only really turns it on when he gets pissed off by something or someone.

What's this sulky fucking attitude among our players? Dressing room atmosphere must be bleak. No-one's having fun playing football. Half of them look like they just wanna get the goal and hurry home.

When compared to Iniesta, Cesc, David Silva, Xavi and those, he trades sharpness for explosivity and alacrity. In some games it will be useful and in others it wont. Still got plenty of time to round off those edges.

Love how he keeps his pace when running at defenders. Showed strong mentality under pressure as well. This instinct to fight harder when faced with adversity is essential. Many 17 year olds would cave and lose confidence.

Big pressure tonight and the seams clearly came apart. Let's see what happens when the side is fully sown and tailored.

I can wear my username with pride once again! The more teammates move around him, the better he is.

that back pass with 30 seconds left when we need a goal omg hahaha
