I hope we play backups.

I don't think we'll fully go 'fuck this trophy'. Resting Frenkie and Messi vs Granada shows it.

Winning this could be great for the confidence. And besides, the game after the Supercopa is CdR against Cornella, so there's room for rest there too.

Against Sociedad we could maybe see 7-8 starters and a couple of rotations.

Good point. Can rest vs Cornella.

Good point. Can rest vs Cornella.

Copa is more important that this made up Supercup though. Let's not do an Atletico. It's our only shot for a meaningful trophy this season.

 

[Barcaman]

6 away games in a row this January. Don't think we were ever in such situation.

I don't really consider Super Copa as away games.

And well, with no fans there are no true away games anyway.

Also, with current weather conditions in Spain we're also lucky to play games in Andalusia (Granada, Supercopa) and then have a very short trip to Cornella followed by Elche. Much better than having to travel to Madrid or the Basque country.

No rest for Messi.

Cmon... Cornella aren’t even Segunda. They are Segunda B. They beat Atletico but we should win without first team.

We should win, but if they beat Atletico, who are better than us so far this season, they can beat us too.

without fans every match is an away match for us

I'm sorry, did serghei call Copa a meaningful trophy? I might have to save the post.

Champions League > la liga title >> Copa >>>> Super copa

Copa isnt as precious as la liga or CL but its good to win the Copa as well.

I'd say it looks pretty meaningful .
