Dude, why are you defending Valverdumb? He practically ragged the players before that crucial return leg. Did you see how lacklustre their movements were?

And he did nothing when he was two goals down.
And what was your hero's first substitution in the 81st minute? Gomez for Iniesta. Hitler's grandmother wouldn't have done that.

He then brought in Dembele in the 85th minute to score hattrick.

I am saying let us be patient because he won 2 trophies. Had he gone trophiless or just won the CDR I would be asking for his head.

Not too many great coaches around o. Except Sarri or Tuchel. I mean coaches that can play Barca style.

Leave,

Griezman dey ball sha.

Upnepaa:


I was about to say the same thing, but it seems the chase of Grizemann is blocking that path but i will like it if we can capture his signature. Imagine a Messi/dembele/martial forward line or Dembele/suarez/Martial forward line with Messi and Coutinho supporting them from midfield. That would be mesmerizing, fingers crossed though.

I can't just wait to hear the amount Atletico Madrid would slap on Griezmann head.
I hope Suarez gets his Shiit together next season, why the hell would Benzema outscore Suarez UCL goals in just one match? This is just unforgivable.

pelvicky:



Can't the players attack without the coach instruction. The players and the coach should be ashamed of themselves .



This is the season we should have gotten a Ucl classico final, destroy Madrid in front of the whole world at the biggest stage, messi claiming his rightful position.

They just blew up everything after leading 4-1.

gosh!

After our loss to Juve last season, I bashed the players, especially the senior ones for failing to raise their game. But I could do same in the match against Roma because the magical tactician has already drained them even before the match.
I still don't know the rationale behind playing the 1st eleven in a match preceding a crucial CL(when the league was almost won) only to rest then in a game before the CDR final.

He messed up. Badly if u like. But I think your last paragraph means learning from his mistakes.

Learning from his mistakes or bowing shamefully to pressure?

Isomerizm:
That guy hasn't learnt anything. Let's just watch how he will backpass his way to glory next season.

Trust me, he has learnt his lessons. Use Dennis Suarez as a starting point.

Olamyyde:

Baba never learn anything...watch him bench semedo and Mina next season.

We both know Semedo will be Lording over that Full back position come next season...
Yeri Mina has to work for a starting berth. No-one is going to hand it to him... He has Pique and Umtiti to battle for it. Don't blame the coach!!

Ronaldo's performance was below par TBH. Going by his standard sha.

Very true
Very very true

One match should not be used to define a man and the season.

It not fair.

I change my mind. He's better than Suarez and thats all that matters.

He's not getting any shiiit together. He would remain in Barca solely due to Messi's influence not due to performance. He's been shiit since Enrique's last season.

Forget,
Griezman is a baller.

He was off form for a period but class is permanent.

The way the guy dey touch ball sef na correct.

He's not the kind of striker to sleep around the box.

Suarez is diminished.

Period!

Messi will keep on dropping masterclasses for another 5 years.

Period!

Bro you harsh O

Wish we could Thiago back. Then Arthur and Alena. Plus Busquets. Then our midfield should be worth something again come 2019. De ligt and De Jon too. I welcome Griezeman with all my heart. Denis would count for something too.

Out: Valverdumb. Either resign or suffer Vilanova's fate.
Gomez.
Paulinho (this is unlikely after the season)
Digne
Vidal

Promote Cucurella, although I hear rumours connecting to Alaba.

Oriol Busquets needs to be promoted too.

It seems the fans know more than the manager and the board sef.

Lol, That's absurd

He do switch off at the commencement of the season then regains form midway, then he switched off again at the end. It has been like that for like 2 years.It is high time we signed Grizemann,i think his buy out clause is around 100million€

Suarez needs the ball delivered to him in order to perform, these days however, the space is very limited and he gets very little of the ball and space so he can't perform laye laye.. Griezmann looks like the opposite thus far, so make Suarez dey go or at best he should be 2nd choice, all this his forming of senior player should stop. Valverde lacks the cojones to bench him though.

Luis is Messi's best friend at Barça. He doesn't have the balls to incur Leo's wrath.

Only brilliant coaches, who have paid their dues and do not solely rely on one player's panache and brilliance have enough balls to deal with Messi and his influence.

Unfortunately for Val, he's more like the deputy manager.

I was thinking Messi as false 9 but I don't think he himself would want Suarez to be on the bench. Because this 4-4-2 is too rigid. I don't know how and where Griezmann would play to start both him, Suarez, Messi, continho and dembele in the same starting eleven ( and this is 5 out of the 10 outfield players already) And selling Suarez doesn't seem to be an option.

it's better we get griezmann but don't sell Suarez, we still need him, Suarez needs competition

I thought you knew football?

So what Ronaldo did on both nights was disaster class.

Na una be the real clowns. Since only dribbles and pre-assists is the only criteria of judging a good player I. Your views.

Even my fiancee who does not know shiitt about football knows Tapnaldo's masterclass or near-ok game performance comes from scoring tap ins and penalties. When that is done, his PR agents spread across the world would sing his praises to the high heavens. And another Balon possibility comes on the dice for him. You can not deny you dont know this, your allegiance to Refdrid aside.

Bayern gave a good account of themselves and kept him quiet over both legs, which might explain why he bottled the half chances he got.

Na Ev nah.. he won 2 major cups out of 3. that is 70% which in WAEC is A3 i.e. Distinction.

no matter how much noise y'all make he will be here next season. If he then achieves unbeaten in laliga. that seals it completely

The bolded part catches my attention.

So PSG is an easier draw to Chelsea
And
Juventus is an easier draw to Roma.

I fear you bros.

And since when did a legit penalty call that none of you have so far been able to prove other wise become ojoro?

As for Marcelo's handball. Sorry and no sorry at the same time. We were lucky unlike you lotsvthat refuse to acknowledge that Ovrebo robbed Chelsea on that faithful night like a mad thief high on konji and raped the Blues without remorse.

You missed the first part of the red card. Don't tell me you are a Chelsea fan in disguise and only took to support Refdrid whence Moanrhino moved there... I consider you the only Madrid supporter of worth on Nairaland, no fall my hand bro.

There were serious of wrong calls in that game, but the biggest was the red card which of course defined the match. The other calls for Chelshit came afterwards. It takes a team with wits to play such a highly tensed game and come out tops. We bossed the game from start to finish despite playing over half an hour with a man down (wrongly dismissed). If any team was robbed on the night, it definitely was Barca. We came to win the game and duly deserved to progress after securing the away goal.

Marcelo's was a clear hand ball that all three officials saw but chose to look away.

Talking of Chelsea is to to show the different attitudes.

Barca fans (just as you are still doing) justify the Overbo wrong calls all on the basis of the wrong red card given to Abidal.

Real Madrid fans on the other hand admits it was a hand ball that we were LUCKY not to be penalised for.

Barca fans are ungrateful oh.... This season was a good season. Messi will still win Ballon d'or if he gives a star performance at the world cup and barca finishes la liga unbeaten (which has never been done since the inception of la liga)

Given the standards at Camp nou, we aren't ungrateful. Rather, we're dissapointed.
