Pedri plays with Zubimendi / Rodri who can actually defend space.

First of all, these issues have been here even with Pedri this season. Even buildup, especially on that damned left side. Second of all, Pedri and DeJong are terrible off the ball and I seriously think the long term future is with one of them out of it. This season to me they contribute to our...

Please explain to me how subpar buildup, mediocre pressing don't influence a perfomance. Seriously. How are these the standards man, I do not understand, this Chelsea team is not good. We managed to make Pedro Neto look threatening bro, explain

No it wasn't it was from a set piece which coincidentally has ALSO BEEN A PROBLEM IN THIS FLICK TENURE.

No I wasn't stop making things up, go to my account, I haven't posted here in a while. I made my feelings known ever since the Newcastle game and never wavered since, a good perfomance with Flick doesn't mean issues suddenly dissappear. You say you're not the kind to change opinions every week...

The highline is a cop out for an inability to coach a simple midblock when a man to man press, which has forever ago been shown to be unsustainable, ultimately fails.

I've see you here for a while now defending Flick and truly I commend your efforts to look the other way at a burning car crash, but at this point it's just being asinine. If we start playing better it'll be because Flick changed something, which ultimately is the point of criticizing him. Such...

*Taps the sign*

Yeah that's why I put 'nearly confirmed'.

Apparently nearly confirmed to get Upamecano for free, serious club

Honestly I heard more hype about Kumbedi last season than I have this season so I'm not certain what his club situation is currently like, however Yoro and Jacquet are incredible talents, who have already dipped their toes into professional football and grown a bit. Methalie on the other hand is...

The whole U21 squad is nuts man

Smh, in my ideal world at least 2 of them would be playing for Barcelona next year.This is crazy for just an U21 team. If you want serious defenders go to France, this club annoys me sometimes.

Wow, what a result! Who could have seen that coming! It's almost like everything visible to anyone paying attention to how Barca play just showed up today! This loss is not on Flick at all must only be the players, despite everything we saw today being emblematic of the faults in the system...

Pressing still a problem

Another goal conceded the same exact way we always concede them.😄

Vitinha's weight of pass is alot better than Pedri, even Frenkie's better than Pedri and this limits Pedri's ability to make it easier for attackers to receive the ball thus telling me that his passing is not at the same level. Pedri's range was alot more expansive a few seasons ago and either...

That's objectively not true lol. Pedri isn't a superior passer and Vitinha is a better ball carrier. Defensively, its hard for me to judge because last season Pedri was alot better defensively than he is this season, where they both practically don't exist but I'll give the edge to Pedri. Where...

Another concern I had was our buildup and press being subpar and every single thing was evident today. A good press for 10 minutes is a waste of energy.

A while ago I posted concerns about how we defend and said I had concerns about the similarities in every single chance we concede being formulaic. I'm not saying that nothing will change but that last PSG goal is emblematic of the same things I said lol. A good analyst on twitter put it simply...
