La Liga Round 2: Levante - Barca

[serghei]

Gonna be a difficult game I feel. I've seen games at Levante away go in all sorts of ways, from easy wins to hard ones, and even losses and draws back when we had even better teams than now.

Easy win

They are just promoted and lost last week to Alaves. Not the same team of last time with that old lad up front that always caused problems with his dribbling etc.

Also Barca with full week off.

Should be easy win.

Eric, Araujo, Cuba, Balde
Gavi, Pedri

Very bold to play without a goalkeeper. I mean Barca are good, but I don't think they're THAT good.

Pep will be raging that Flick beat him to pioneering the goalkeeperless formation.

Where is Raphinha lol.

No raph. I start Rashford instead

So you wouldn't start the player with the biggest end product from last season and a top 5 BD candidate, who scored our first goal this season as well.

Come on...

Its Levante. If there is a game where he shouldn't start its this one.
Think we should start rotating fairly early this season.

I don't think Flick will, but its a bottom-of-the-barrel game, which should be easy enough to rotate, and make new players used to our system and league.

 

[serghei]

Players had a full week rest mate. Non issue atm.

Rashford and Casado start! Gavi bench, that's a surprise. Rapha on the 10? Kounde also benched again.

 

[JamDav1982]

Raphinha AM it must be.

On performance last season that is fair on Casado.

That is quickest front four Barca have had in years and years.
