Yeah, like Flick vs Dortmund away. Stupid to put Araujo in such a bad situation. Point stands, avoid cheap goals.

Flick had 4-0 cushion and it cost Barca nothing.. dont think his line up was poor and most were in fact calling for more rotation if anything.

Araujo cant not play even with his weaknesses. Inigo was never playing due to the possible yellow.

I hope to see a tifo we haven't had one in a really long time, the October 2023 El Clasico specifically

Let's not go over this again. If you believe the manager holds responsabilities for individual blunders, it's your angle.

He is responsoble for the atrocious defensive line up v Inter and then team were exposed to it.

No one would care about that game if so much was not on the line either.

Dortmund line up is more or less what would expect. Nothing wrong with it and it didnt cost Barca.

Busi as sole DM on front of a CB pairing of Pique/Garcia is beyond ridiculous. Then not to start Balde/Alba etc. Crazy.

Best you can do to minimize the bad impact of players like Araujo is not put them in the first 11.

Sure, same way Flick was on Tuesday. Fair. Unless you use the argument when it suits you, which is no longer fair.

No.. Flicks line up was perfectly fine for the situation and most called for more rotation.

Not even comparable to how badly Xavi got it wrong v Inter with so much at stake.

Araujo has weaknesses but still correct to start him v Dortmund overall... If it costs Barca the tie then another matter.

Bro do you actually think it was intentional, this was due to Kounde, Araujo and Christensen being injured. But yes not starting Alejandro Balde in that 4 game UCL stretch is insanely wild and it cost us slightly Icl

Yes it is 'intentional' as he chose them as the defenders.

Fully aware of who was missing that is the whole point.

Putting together the slowest defence possible near enough bar and then having a sole DM like Busi on front of them

Horrendous and payed for it.

Yeah, still dominated Inter and had more chances than them over two games. This time the team is leaps and bounds better. Inter is a good team but if we do our job we will go through regardless of how they play.

Yes and pay for it with a god awful slow defensive set up and concede 3.

Bayern had more chances than them also. No one cares once all said and done really.

Dominate and concede 5 in 2 games as go out.

No one will be remotely pointing to like of that if go out to Inter in similar fashion. It would be a defeat and thats it.

It is tighter than just going through if do job and opposition play a part in that.

Yeah, well, this time the idea is we will do better than 2022 Barca. Not as many injuries, improved players, new figures like Yamal. Don't think we will be as shite in defense as that side.

Of course the idea is to do better than go out in groups like 2022.

What frustrates is when go out when see teams set up like that one back then.

If Flick makes as bad choices and go out better believe he will get both barrels despite the improvement under him.

He only put them cause they were the only options

If Barca goes out to inter, but perform worse than we did against them under Xavi.

Does that mean Xavi>flick?

Asking for a friend.
