I couldn’t find the thread for it and I am not bothered to make the thread.
The worst Barcelona performance by a player I have ever seen was Mathieu v Juventus, 2016-17 Champions League quarter finals, 1st leg

Ever since the 8-2, I see that year by year we have improved in our general European performance.
Starting from the 2020-21 season, I see that Barcelona as a collective has improved in a way or so, from the honourable second leg performance against PSG in 2021 to the near comeback we did against Frankfurt in 2022, every season is always a step up in Europe. Even in 2022-23, we competed against Bayern in their home and Inter at our home, Inter who also reached the final that year, but the Europa League Idt we had the motivation to compete for it thus the early elimination. In 2023-23, we did the biggest improvement as we were a red card away from the semi final and then the next season we were 2 minutes away from our first final in 10 years.


Look, I am not excusing failure or anything, but I am saying we have to look at the positive side of things regarding this club in Europe. Rome was not built in a day and I see that experience builds character and skill that will allow us to conquer Europe like how we used to do 10-20 years ago.

Guess here is the most optimal place to put it.
Hilarious take down of modern football by random internet guy.
A bit too much silly pictures and tiktoks, but great write up.

I have few things to say here:

-First, this video gives me flashback to the one you posted before(was it you?) of a YT football channel where a guy analysed Barca and said “we need to talk about Stegen” or something and made a case for Joan Garcia(good call there tbf). Where people will present their opinion as supposedly being controversial or insightful even though they are years late to the party. The football = boring is at least 5 years old. He even says “style of a coach I won’t mention by name” lol!

-More and more I have come to realise that football fans are almost equally to blame.
Neymar got flak for “showboating” and trying tricks. Players that slow down to prepare a dummy to beat the player in front of them will get scolded for killing the tempo. etc

Anyway, not bad vid.

edit: I mentioned neymar before he brought him up in the vid.

It rather seems that the voice is heavily edited and sped up. Many tubers do that. If it was AI it would be smoother and without weird accent. Most ai voices are variants of british.
Don't care much about it, because, as i said, i liked the substance. It was a good text.
