11 - Raphinha

[serghei]

We would have to make a late run in the CL to see what they'll do in the SF or final.

Of course, that is obligatory. You can't be the best if you watch the biggest games on TV.

Not bad for a lad battling relegation with Leeds.

 

[serghei]

I'm surprised he didn't develop spinal injury from carrying Leeds on his back for those seasons.

 

[jamrock]

He will walk the entire field in his knees after we win the CL.

Giving the majority of Barca forum it's biggest L yet.

 

[serghei]

Let's hope so. Football needs a positive team to win a CL by outplaying opposition. Too much spotlight for oportunistic Madrid in the last seasons.

I genuinely think we're the favourites this time.


Ofcourse there's no guarantees in the CL but I'm confident about our chances.

To be fair, Liverpool would probably deserve it too if they win it. My beef is with Madrid winning too much because the other teams are somewhat lacking.

Madrid voodoo is powerful.

But they won't get past city.

A 10 year drought is coming

Who'll win then? Early prediction?

It's between

City, Liverpool, us and dark horse PSG.

Can't separate those 4, Liverpool are the best team, but this is K.O football, that doesn't matter much

You can't be serious. Madrid is gonna knock out City for the 3rd time in the last 4 seasons.

Our defense has improved a lot under Slot. He's extremely versatile tactically.


I think we'll spank City if we meet them.

Liverpool, Madrid, Barca, Inter, Arsenal, Atletico, Bayern, PSG in this order. City are done. You can't ship in 5 goals against Arsenal who are not even that good offensively this season, and hope to qualify vs Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo attacking line.

 

[jamrock]

Oh fuck yeah I forgot inter.

They are probably top 3 for me.
