Barca keeps going down

Pjanic ke...

I think it'll be a good idea to sell Arthur �. Dude has not added anything different to Barcelona since he was signed. €81m will be a good return from an mediocre investment, which he has turned out to be.

And no Pjanic please. Our squad is already old enough. Let's not get them older.

I still don't believe this shit and even if it were to be true it's definitely not for pjanic.........This board is stupid but not that stupid(i hope).

It's obvious you don't have the idea of how the deal will work, the two teams are trying to balance their books. Pjanic will go the other way for nothing less than 50m euros. So at the end of the day, Juventus is paying less than 30m euros for a 23yr old Arthur.

Sommyroy10:
The question is, is that deal a good deal?
If man city came with KDB or Bernardo, I'm sure no one would object. We are going for a player that his best position is taken and we also have a better player that can play there.

Lol. And which person in his right mind would exchange KDB or Bernardo Silva for Arthur?

The question should be how many of our signings haven't turned out mediocre? Most of these players were doing so well in their previous clubs, but they came to Barcelona and their level of play dropped.

The system is rotten. It's this same rotten system that wants to bring another 30 something year old player.

Besides, Arthur was playing good when he came... I don't know when he became bad that the club want to easily dispose him.

So I had time on my hands and I calculated the average age of our starting 11 against Sevilla. It was freaking 30 years

And there are credible rumours that Pjanic is coming. Lord have Mercy.

Lineup

ter Stegen
Semedo
Pique
Lenglet
Alba
Busquets
Arthur
Vidal
Suarez
Messi
Griezmann

PasstoMessi tactics is the reason young and enterprising players cannot grow in the Barcelona system.

Bring Bernado Silva and Debruyne to play this tactics and they will flop. Why? Because they can't express themselves, they can't create, they have to #PasstoMessi even when the net is opened or when Messi is already crowded and other players are free.

And even the Messi they are passing to is on a decline. We are gradually going back to the era of early 2000.

Tired of winning LaLiga

Madshit can have it

Exactly. They all come to Barcelona and become impotent because they have to pass to Messi. It's just so painful.

I just wonder why the management don't have the common sense to see that Messi is not like before. Why will a 33 year old player be saddled with so much responsibility? They are just burning him out and the effect is already showing.

When Ronaldo was past 32, he was already skipping some games, but Messi is playing every single minute of every game.

We need a Coach with balls to come and stop all this rubbish going on.

You guys can manage it

We're going for the UCL

This coach looks dumb!

What's Vidal still doing on the pitch?

I even thought Puig was coming on for him.

Where can I stream this game live?

To drag the 6th with Liverpool and merely half of what we have ??

Messi is so shit Gosh!

I said it that I wasn't impressed with Setien. Get me Koeman this useless board

This Messi scoring against only bottom teams thingy is so real...
Gosh

We need Rakitic and Fati in this game. We need energy and ideas in this game. Puig has injected life in this game but we still need more

Goal!

Messi, Suarez, and Alba are so unfair to Griezmann. This guy will make a good run only for those guys to pretend as if they didn't see him. Setien too is a fool for leaving removing Griezmann while that wasteful Suarez is still playing. I hate this current Barca team.

Puig and fati are frigging beasts

Griezmann needs to leave if he still wants to make anything meaningful from his career.

Olamyyde:

That is what hungry youths bring to the game. They just came in and brought in fluidity and movements.

Grezzy shld go and pick form to register with CLUB AMIGOS.

I will take this 3 points any time any day.Not the prettiest of wins but at this point we need results not some world class performances

Key Takeaways

Whoever thought about selling Semedo is very stupid.Dude was great making those forward runs and was really fantastic on the day. We really need Marina of Chelsea as she knows how to make real transfer decisions. Abidal maybe a club legend but being our sporting directories something that doesn't fit him well.

Messi lacked a little bit of match sharpness.Was still OK based on his standards. Fati/Puig and La Masia is the future. We should think to our academy and stop wasting funds buying players.

Arthur was really poor.Vidal was poor but improved greatly in the last 30 minutes.Rakitic continued his improvements.

Lastly,we needa coach that knows what he's doing. This game needed Griezmann and Suarez not starting the 2nd half with Braith and Fati starting in the 2nd half. We needed more energy and that what got us the 3 points

Puig made some passes that shocked me. They weren't extraordinary passes, but those kind of incisive passes have been lacking in Barcelona.

The pass from puig that led to that first goal, Vidal was surprised because He is used to receiving and giving passive passes.

Messi actually have gave a very good pass in the box which he mishit over the bar moments before he was subbed.
