Even if we had scored only one goal, this'd got to be the most beautiful play by Barça this season.

Barcelona is an attacking side. We leave lots of spaces behind. It's normal for teams to get counter-attacking opportunities against us. PSV had few moments but they were always on the fringes of the match. Any attacking side would definitely leave spaces behind. Liverpool vs psg ended 3-2

Anybody with Ray Hudson's commentary? I need it please

After Messi yesterday. The best player on the pitch despite playing for just 10 minutes was Authur melo. Infact the last 10 min apart from the goals from Messi and Dembele was the highlight of yesterday's game.

Between that post and now, many waters have passed under the bridge.

Please don't get me angry.

Our last two matches have been the worst matches of Barcelona this season..

The score line do not reflect the true colour of the game..

If PSV players were decisive and were as good as the attacking players of Liverpool, PSG, Chelsea or even inter Milan,, do you know how many goals they would had scored?
Can't you see how our defenders left lots of spaces at the back?
can't you see how many times they countered us?

Try giving Liverpool or Tottenham that defensive space and see how they will disgrace us..

I was angry in most parts of the game..


This was the same mistake we did against roma and we suffered for it, due to the fact that Roma attackers were not PSV attackers..

I watched the PSG vs Liverpool game yesterday and i began to fear for Barcelona..

Our defenders apart from semedo and umtiti,, they don't have this ruthlessness,, they can't cover space,, can our defenders cancel out Mbappe, cavani, di maria and neymar, like the way Liverpool defenders did?

I'm a Barcelona fan but Barcelona has the worst defenders amongst the top teams of the world..

modextus:
It was his pass that led to Messi's third goal. The guys passing game is superb! Reminds me a lot about Xavi.

dmcdad:

I disagree... This was just few weeks ago. Just admit that your assertion at the time was hasty and wrong. Hence, there is need to be more considerate in your judgements.

Debroslink:


So I shouldn't be concerned when a team in my group walloped man United 3-0 @ old Trafford and my team struggled to defeat a relegation bound team.

Or because we defeated PSV 4-0, I should believe all is well with the team?

The "many waters that passed" is DEMBELE. The guy is moving past depending on Messi. He's the other source of goal scoring except Messi.

I need Suarez to come up too especially in UCL. Dude scored just once last season. Till he improves, my stance stands.

Upnepaa:
We are an attacking side that plays a lot with the ball,so the greatest tactic the opponents utilize often is counter attacks because there is a lot of space to operate. However, I think the guy is right to some extent although he exaggerated the condition, our defenders can be flexible atimes , you will see them conceding soft goals that maybe, my grandfather would have defended but the fact is that,our defensive department has improved immensely since the arrival of Enersto Valverde.

No one is saying you shouldn't be critical about the team's display. Heck, I'm very much critical about the coach, but then to make certain statements like the ones you dropped weeks ago was blowing things way outta proportion. Of course everyone has its own ideas and all, but certain things stand outright as...

Besides, the fact that ManYoo were walloped at their backyard by Tottenham is not a yardstick to judge your team. Neither ManYoo nor Tottenham are in Barça's level. No matter how bad we may appear sometimes under EV, we can never be as bad or as worse as the aforementioned teams. Even Inter is playing shiit. Tottenham will never make me lose sleep. PSV? Like I care...

Like I stated, you're free to air whatever you have in mind. But, certain comments of ours determine to a great length our level of thinking and how people will view us, hence the need not to send the wrong message to people perusing your posts.

Olamyyde:

Barcelona has good defenders. Prior to his last injury, umtiti was the best cb imo. Pique is ok, alba is ok. The only bad defender i know is roberto and I'm not too convinced about lenglet. Umtiti bullied lozano throughout that match.
Barca's defence is far better than liverpool's or psg's defence

Roberto bad?? how

If you read that post very well, I didn't say we won't qualify from our group. I said when the big teams come calling in knockout stages, and we're still depending on Messi, we'll get the same results we've got in UCL in the past 3 seasons; Q/F exit.

When MSN were producing 121 goals, UCL was won. When we stop relying on Messi alone for goals, UCL will be ours again. Thank God Dembele is doing wonders now. It remains Suarez to be red hot.

busky007:
bros check the stats for liverpool defence and check ur comment

MJBOLT:

Roberto bad?? how

Upnepaa:


The guy is really good, I like him a lot. If given enough game time, he might dislodge Rakitic from his position.

philfearon:

Not Coutinho, not Arthur, nor Vidal is going to dislodge Rakitic from his position!!!

femiti:

Is that so?

philfearon:

We still had MSN in 2015/2016 and didn't win UCL... infact we were dumped out the same way we got dumped out last season.
You guys should stop living in fantasy and come to the reality that Superb seasons come and go...

Olamyyde:

Roberto is poor defensively, he is always exposing pique. Almost all the attacks from psv came from roberto's side. He is good at attacking but i don't think we can win the champions league with roberto as our main rb.

dmcdad:

Honestly you're singing a different tone now. Then, it wasn't about the latter stages of the UCL. You were particular about our qualification from this group. And I could remember it drawing some harsh criticism towards you at the time. I could even remember philfearon's comments when you dropped those supposed concerns of yours.

Anyway, it's all good. At least now you know better.

Debroslink:
On paper, FC BARCELONA have what it takes to top the group.

On current form, Tottenham should come 1st with Barcelona 2nd.

Inter are poor @ the moment, and PSV shouldn't cause much worry.
