CL 1/4 Final: FC Barcelona - Manchester United 4-0 agg.

[Neeraj]

Valmierda showing us once again how truly incompetent he is. Zidane goes out there and plays kids in big CL games, and we continue to play Coutinho, game after game, even though he's been shit all season. I get that maybe Dembele isn't fit/match fit to start, but when you have Malcolm who has done everything he can to warrant a place in the team, starting Coutinho is as clueless as one can get.

 

[raskolnikov]

Maybe Dembele isnt fully fit yet? Starting Coutinho who has actually been improvingvabd subbing on Dembele for the last half hour when there is space isnt that bad.

 

[xxxxxx]

Why not place Coutinho in the midfield, and Dembele up front? We have all of this attacking talent so we should use it.

Because we have a defensive minded manager. He doesn't like to gamble.

Interesting lineup. Roberto instead of semedo shows that valverde thinks barca will be facing a bus and needs Roberto's better ball control and passing. Coutinho instead of dembele is ok, Coutinho was alright in the first game and dembele might still not be 100% also in the recent game dembele looked out of sync. he needs to get back in rhythm.

I'd like dembele to come on in the second half to exploit the inevitable space as Man U are forced to push up, barca will probably have a goal by then.

Dembele cant be fully fit.. thats the only logical reason hes not starting

 

[Centauri B]

Yes we play at home yes we are the better team yes we should win , but in football anything can happened .

This.

Yes, of course we are a beast at home in the CL, but strange things sometimes happen.

Luck may turn against us. We can do no wrong in this game and we have to play at 100%.

 

[serghei]

It's an ok line-up. Semedo away and Roberto at home is not a bad idea as far as RB choices go. You're more likely to have control of the game at home than away. Dembele is probably going to come in circa min. 60 or so.

Coutinho played well vs Lyon at home and was also pretty good in the first game with United.

 

[te amo barca]

facing a team that needs to score 2 goals without your best counter players

Semedo, a good counter player? what?

 

[hulinat]

Dembele din du shit vs Huesca, thats why hes not starting. Coutinho better bang some goals with Jones playing as RB lol

 

[serghei]

is Jones seriously at RB?

Unless they play 3 at the back.

 

[wisconsincule]

Maybe Dembele isnt fully fit yet? Starting Coutinho who has actually been improvingvabd subbing on Dembele for the last half hour when there is space isnt that bad.

Yeah. Dembele will score coming in as a sub. BOOK IT

 

[jairzinho]

Roberto needs to be mindful of pushing up too high and leaving loads of space for Rashford or whoever is playing on that side. That's where United will look to hit us.

 

[Andresito]

Fuck me if they knock us out..

 

[ATLBarcaFan]

Was obvious Roberto was going to start. Semedo's yellow being another good reason to do it.

Rashford will abuse Roberto

Dembele din du shit vs Huesca, thats why hes not starting. Coutinho better bang some goals with Jones playing as RB lol

this is utterly ridiculous, do you think if he wasn't playing with a bunch of B players that he might have looked better?
