IKON360:

in this team when we had Puyol and Pique, both played though both were right footed. We played Pique and Mascherano, both right footed, it won't kill the team or turn it upside down if two left footers start in CB positions.
.
Pique at 32 is still young, how old is Chellini or Barzagli, besides Pique never had pace much more did he rely on his pace, so he has what it takes to play at that the heart of Barca's defense till he is 36 or more

Easier to play 2 right footed players at the back than two left footed players. Can you mention just one formidable left footed defensive pairing ever since you started watching football.

[Francesc Aguilar] The Luka Jovic option has cooled down for Barça. The player is interested, but he would come at a high cost and he is not very willing to be a 'substitute' for Luis Suarez. Due to this, Barça are now looking for cheaper alternatives.

Meanwhile,
Luis Suárez has told Barça he wants to renew.

I think we signed prince to b our photographer i guess he will see more match time now that la liga is in the bag

He takes very good pictures

Hehe

philfearon:

Exactly...
I doubt the coach will start Malcolm. The EPL experience will play to Coutinho's advantage since Dembele is not fit...
For the first in a while though, Coutinho improved against A.Madrid.

Coutinho played very well against Athletico, he was tracking back, pressing, dribbling and best of all, fouled a player. I was so proud of him.
Malcolm is a downgrade on Dembele, his right foot is too weak, and he doesn't make diagonal runs into the box but his pace is still enough threat and he too played quite well on Saturday

has Pochettino ever beaten Guardiola?

I just pray we don't defend first half then attack second half.
Pray we attack all through and starve them if the ball.

And they say someone else is better when he has almost double his motm awards

You are wicked ... How can you wish they starve us the ball all through in our compound Trafford ?

The way Barça fans are bragging on twitter, boy! You'd think they just came back from the future.

And, honestly, I used to be very wary of Man City, until that yesterday's game.

Pep always have a terrible record playing away games in the champions league especially in the knockout stage. He has this believe his team can whoop any team at home hence his reason for benching Sane, Debryne and Bernado.

It might be his undoing this time around as it was with Barca in 2012 and Bayern in 2016.

With Kane not playing second leg...

Man city will qualify.... is it not 1:0?

City were not at their best yesterday as he guardiola rest some player, the reason best known to him.... and i hope he realize that the guy called Delph will continue to be a disaster for him if he continue to use him as a fullback..

They won't struggle as much as they did yesterday and will qualify next week

A goal for tottenham means City has to score 3 goals, it won't be as easy as portrayed.

Delph is bad luck + Horrible put together in his apari head and to think he was the one getting angry when City lost to wigan in the FA Cup last season like say na one senior player. Otu oshi

Hmmm...anything can happen tonight cules.

My greatest joy is there's always a second leg to rely on.

I expect a conservative approach from our coach...yeah too predictable like that

Lastly...god of Injury should just free fc barca tonight

Official: Dembele has received medical all clear for tonight's Match

These are his own plans

One goal by spurs away will be very expensive

A 1-1 would have been the worst they shud have settled for

Lol just thinking about how smalling and Jones will want to keep Messi quiet, can’t help but loooool

Match day cules. The main reason I want to watch this game is to see the quantity of grasses Smalling would eat this night after he yarned dust about knowing Messi's weakness.
Glad Dembele is back. This should be a win for us
#forca_barca

Isiterere:
I just hope the team is not being over confident . The way every Barcelona fans is bullying Manchester United fans on social media is something else

Well one thing barca is not doing so far is underrating opponents in UCL


Messi serious about UCL this season

So fans can be overconfident. But let players not be

Chelsea made a comeback against on form Napoli in the R16

Manchester United also made a comeback against on form PSG in the R16

Manchester United have Mata now

Chelsea had a black and tall King as a CF

Manchester United have King Lukaku

For the night is dark and full of terrors.

I suggest you guys just calm down and take the best result however it comes. I personally prefer a shitty-football type, wide margin win. As in, very rubbish un-tiki taka but get-the-job done levels.

Because at the end of the day, United being the overwhelming underdogs in this one will claim moral victory one way or another... finally, the ultimate goal is to get one step closer to the ucl final.
