Nigga shut up.

Guardiola also implemented his style at Bayern.

Yes..Like he is going to teach fraud players like Clichy and Sagna to be Tiki Taka gods.

jpmoriarti:
Thankfully we still have Guardiola, the inventor of aethestic football, struggling in EPL to replicate the model he effortlessly implemented at Barcelona. If it is that easy, why does he struggle? Simple answer is that other teams have learned that style as well as how to render it ineffective.

jpmoriarti:
As for me, if you have won a game, you must have played well otherwise why didn't your opponent win ?

jpmoriarti:
My fear is he'll reject any contract offer. I believe this season will be his last. I'll definitely loathe to see him leave. He made us relevant again after the disaster that was Martino.

dmcdad:
Of course everyone would want us to play well and win there, but come on, cut these guys some slack. They managed to pull a victory somewhere they've not been able to do so for 10 years, and here we are talking about playing well.

Ia it that we we now like Madrid fans who have short memories or we are just naturally ingrates?

Don't get me wrong though... I want a victory with good football, but I have seen cases we played well there and still lost. As far aa Anoeta is concerned, a victory is all that's needed. After now, we can talk about playing well and winning still. But for the benefit of breaking the curse, I'd take this win over playing well anyday of the week when it comes to playing at Anoeta.

Let's just appreciate the fact that we have been able to break the curse. You'd agree it's more important than playing good football there. Doesn't mean playing good football as well as winning shouldn't be our goal, but then... You know the rest.

jpmoriarti:
Wake up! The time that Barca goes to opponent's house and dominate them to submission is well and truly over. Guardiola is even finding it a herculean task to replicate same in PL. Other teams have learned too. Give them credit and don't imagine Barcelona must continue to dominate any team they see all the time.

bykebyke:
That time them never place the curse.

jpmoriarti:
Neyboi played well and scored the decisive goal. Yet we have scored more goals there at other times but still failed to win.

Enrique o bu gi nwe aka!

jpmoriarti:
History remembers winners only not those who played better.

jpmoriarti:
Kee ife mere m agaghi e ji too ya ? He's a Barca legend and he helped us break our miserable curse.

Enrique o gi nwe aka !!!

bykebyke:
Last time we won at Anoeta was in 2007 and we didn't win anything that season.

Debroslink:
Until we do it in a league match, I don't believe it's broken.

Debroslink:
Average

ddippset:
3-2 draw? lol. Don't mind me, I know you meant to say 3-2 loss. Quite hilarious though.

onuwaje:
Hay God
Y iniesta??

homesteady:
They are discussing about removing offside rule from 2026 Worldcup!

10d0ve:
Personally, I'm not too bothered about the 2points (prospective 5 if they win) I'm only happy the unbeaten has come to an end. Their season will "hopefully" go down from here.

homesteady:
No offside rule!

This would be bad for teams that use very highline defense like us!

freaklesschild:
That guy na really madrid nemesis

sebod:
Barca!

homesteady:
Kameni kwa? He is still in Malaga!

He only shines against Barcelona!

usbcable:
He retired from international football years ago.

That is the only guy I fear in that team.

Any time he plays a big club he brings his A game. Idiot.

ddippset:
Ramos must have thought it was the 92nd minute and said to himself 'I have to score a header, I just have to score a header. I am Sergio Ramos'

barackohandso:
The season might not have gone as fans expect so far but so did his first season. Good news is we're picking up form @ the right time which is positive, and while we might not be playing the vintage Barca champagne football, know that it's a full transition away from Xavi in the middle, Dani alves on the right and now the older and more fragile Iniesta is having to play with Andre Gomes and Rafinha, but we can take solace in the fact that we're still in all competitions.

Btw, do you have any other manager in mind apart from Sampaoli who you think can do a better job or is it just Sampaoli for you?

jpmoriarti:
We brought in a lot new players. It's difficult to easily integrate all of them all at once. This season cannot be compared to the abject lethargy and hopelessness that taitaned Tata's season with us.

barackohandso:
Same was said of Tata Martino's style but it failed, we went trophyless having played very bad that season. It was like we lost our identity, that was why he didn't last more than 1 season. You might not like Lucho but he still follows our philosophy which has won us lots of trophies, which included a treble

barackohandso:
Sevilla is a bigger team than Celta no matter who the manager is, so they stand a bigger chance of causing an upset against the league giants than Celta.

Luis Enrique will leave eventually, but i still don't think we'll hire Sampaoli
