La Liga Round 8: Osasuna - Barca 4-2

[companyofcules]

Should have signed him on loan, told you so.

Seriously, he would be more useful than Ferret by far, lol.

Had 2 chances to get us back in the game. Actually he was not totally useless this time just mostly useless

This team needs to survive until Christmas. With the return of literally half the team soon we could be rejuvenated.

Torre should never be out there realistically with Fermin/Olmo/Gavi he pretty much should never play 10.

Get Araujo back and we pretty much never see Big Dom out there again as well.

We have a MONSTERALLY slow center back. Just incredibly slow. We will be punished by fast teams. Get used to it. Kubarsi, Inigo, Dominguez. There is a sick Araujo, who is fast, but he craps on the ball.

Spot on. Flick plays a high line defence and that shstem needs super fast and athletic defenders to cover up whenever that line is breached and figght off physical duel with opposing team's attackers for loose balls. The current crop of central.defenders are terribly slow and physically weak. What a coach from the opposing team needs to do is to put sprinters on the wings and instruct them to stay in same line with the CDs...... any through ball should lead on to a goal especially when you have poor keeper in Pena

 

[companyofcules]

Well lets not get overhyped we got trashed in Gamper for the same reason, but most of this pretend Barca B players are stars made us fill some big holes.
If you change the team 30 minutes into the game to save the points vs Pamplona you are going to get all this young mediocres depleted of confidence and you get 3rd in La Liga by the end of it as Xavi prepared yourself.

Definitely, agree with this

There's also a new stadium in 2025 and should give us a better atmosphere for home matches. Thiago should be back as well. Maybe a few players will come.

Just need to get past to knockouts in UCL and not get way too behind Madrid in Liga.

Yep.


I am sure that Bayern and Real will punish Barcelona in exactly this way.

As bad as RM have been this year we aren't beating them away playing a highline.

What makes you believe we'll ever have close to a full team? Most players who are out now have a known injury history or we don't know in what state they'll return after being out for a year (Gavi).

I think it's more likely there will be more injuries to key players who are overplayed now than having a squad of at least 17-18 actual first team players.

Just watched highlights.
Terrible game it seems.
Worst of the season so far?

Anyway, I am positive we will bounce back with 2 wins in the next 2, and after the break we will have Olmo Fermin GAvi back, things will look much better in terms of rotations

Gamper was worse. Actually we were close to turn it around. Dom and a screemer prevented that. But to be honest they missed alot too

Flick has no clue what his is doing. Two loses in last 4 matches. It's unacceptable at this level. These are the matches that will cost us the league at the end. "Oh if we had only won 1 pt vs Osasuna".

Remember the days when we trashed Osasuna with 8-0, 7-0? Long gone...

WTF are you even talking about?
Every team drops some points here and there in the season.
Question is how many times.
If that doesn't happen often we are good to go.

Think that we have played already AWAY all of Valencia, Vallecano, Girona, Villareal and won them all
today's defeat could have been one of the above and no one would have complained

 

[Messi983]

Backflash to that Alaves game under Lucho in 2016 IIRC when he rotated like 8 players and left Messi and Suarez on the bench. But at least he did that at Camp Nou, not in a traditional tough away game, lol.
