No, they weren't. Didn't win shit. And Madrid didn't even give a fuck.

Whenever we have a good win, the opposition retroactively doesn't give a fuck. Think we didn't give a fuck about Bayern.

Yes, we are not there yet, but the improvement from last season is massive. Also, one could say Real Madrid isn't at that level too, but they keep winning the damn thing.

With little more adjustments here and there in a year or so we will be contender.
Something important here to mention. Xavi got all the help he needed from the board members, and they bring in the players he wanted. Among all 8 new players, only Lewandowski and Kounde have the quality needed for starter. Kessie, Christensen and Alonso are SRP (Serviceable Rotation Player) and the other 3 just don't fit well in Xavi's system. Next time, he needs to make some better research before choosing any new players.

What would we have won against Bayern, the 'beat Bayern in group stage trophy'?

A game against Real away at the Bernabeu in LaLiga is one of the biggest games we'll play outside of direct trophy winning games.

He also was great against Real in the Super Cup.

Guys, you don't understand his point. Who cares if we have beaten Real at Bernabeu when they are still on the top of La Liga and most likely will win again. Dembele always fail in Champions League games. Always. Against Bayern he was not even at 50 % of his self and will never be. If the defender is faster and plays close to him, Dembele is out of the game. It does not help a shit even when he starts changing the flanks. He is good only for La Liga. Against big European teams he always disappears. That is what all Barca fans should admit.

Do you think he spent the club's money recklessly? I think the decision was weighted and it will give its results later.
But in this particular match against Bayern I expected at least a draw. Apparently, it has not yet turned out. I hope that in the next match everything will work out!
