For the 1st time in years, I felt a soft spot for Roman Reigns.

patrickmuf:
You can make your point without mentioning the EPL, I read another folk here say EPL overrated their keepers, if it was true, why do we have Neuer from the Buli and Casillas and at some point Valdez winning the top awards for goal keepers?
You guys should just enjoy football and stop the unnecessary comparisons.

When your folks rated Hazard @ Messi's level, I didn't see you object against it. Why are you now upset because we said Stegen is performing above EPL keepers?

jonsnow92:
Dembele really isn't good enough to start in this gala 11..EV should never start him anymore in any big game this season unless he improves drastically..For y'all calling for EV giving Dembele a chance, what other chance does he wants?.. how many starts did Arthur get before he proved how good he was and now we can all see...If you have it you have it.
Dembele has potential, lots of it, but he's not yet Barça's standard, the sooner we realize it, the better.. EV is on the right path by easing him into the team gradually.
Dembele puts unnecessary pressure on himself, forces the ball unnecessarily,tries to dribble foolishly, The look on EV's face when Dembele lost possession for the umpteenth time says it all.

Coutihno, Suarez Messi should be our Forward players any day any time

Man of the Match.. ARTHUR!!!!!!!

As @ 2006 when we won the league and UCL double, Iniesta was still a squad player despite having huge potentials. He grew into the system when Rijkaard started playing him well.

Dembele can grow into our system and become a huge star if he gets more playing time. He created up to 4 clear chances today, 3 for Suarez and 1 for Rakitic which were all wasted.

He has more goals from open play than Suarez despite playing about 50% of Suarez's playing time. He doesn't deserve the coach he currently has. A real coach would've groomed him to a mega star by now.

calculator123:
Because you are God to know he won't do well than De gea right?

That's the problem I have with EPL fans. They believe anything outside their league is inferior unless it is tested in EPL.

TalabiAudu:
Goalkeepers still do well at old age though..

Stegen would do well in England, but not more than De Gea.

At the bold, yes he was young then.

At bold, well, I'm yet to see an old keeper who did well after crossing from one major league to another.

TalabiAudu:
And let's see if Stegen wouldn't end up like his predecessor Bravo if he comes to England..

But trolling apart, I like Stegen, I wish Chelsea would have bought him instead of Arizagbanla, but De Gea is a beast. Him just dey waste for Old Trashford..

Bravo came to England well past his prime @ 32 years I think. Stegen is just 26. If De Gea, Cortoise and Kepa could do well in EPL, Stegen will do much more.

However, we didn't see the beast in De Gea while @ Atletico. I know his fans will say he was young.

TalabiAudu:
Lol.

Ask byke, he's got your answer..

Byke's opinion is sometimes based on emotions. That's why he deactivated his main monicker.

This is the same Sevilla that ràped De Gea this year. Let De Gea come to Spain if he has some balls. Let's see if he will not end up like Cortoise right now.

TalabiAudu:
De Gea?

Forget De Gea's current form.
He is better than Stegen.

I'm yet to see Ter Stegen out of form in any way since he became our no 1.

ANGELMARVE:
Because the English and BBC likes to overrate their goal keepers.
A fantastic save from an English goal keeper and it will become a talking point in BBC.

They don't see the save upon saves other keepers are putting on week in and week out from other leagues.

One keeper that conceded 44 goals was bought for over 70m by Chelsea. Their great Cortoise has been leaking in goals like basket since he returned to Spain's capital.

Let one slowpoke come and preach De Gea.

As far as I am concerned, there's no keeper in EPL that's as good as Ter Stegen.

With Messi 2 - 0

Without Messi 2 - 2

ANGELMARVE:
Yes the coach is useless.
we need to do all we can to convince guadiola to come back to Barcelona or let xavi come coach Barcelona.

we need a coach that understands the importance of young players like dembele.

Just as we moved on from Ronaldinho and Samuel eto.

We are Barcelona, we are grateful for what Lionel messi has done for Barcelona but Barcelona is bigger than Lionel messi and we must plan for the future.

So if Lionel messi retires today , will Barcelona stop existing?

This is the summary of the whole matter.

Flesh and blood did not reveal this to you.

Bloody Truth

Isomerizm:
Suarez, Semedo and Rakitic just wasted three assists for my Dembele.

You dey watch ball.

haymekus:
Did you notice that Suarez has been playing better since Messi left?

Like the weak shot he played from Dembele's pass? Abegii

haymekus:
Surprisingly we have been playing very well since Messi left the pitch

Lenglet is improving since he's seeing game time, same as Arthur.

Our main problem has always been the forward line. Give Dembele and Malcolm a chance, and we'll have a forward line that will compete with the famous MSN.

ANGELMARVE:
Messi's injury is good news for Barcelona.
Dembele and coutinho needs to reclaim the throne.

we must start preparing for life after messi.

No one can claim Messi's throne as long as EV is in charge. The coach is clueless.

No #PasstoMessiFC tactics after 20 minutes. So the outdated coach has no excuse than to play Dembele.

Now Dembele has been our most dangerous forward since he came on. If someone like Guardiola had been our coach, Dembele would have been a great demon by now.

Watching and smiling

Alcacer scored again today. Now they wanna sell Malcolm, while Dembele is not being fully utilized. But Suarez is untouchable despite serving nonsense.

Unlimited22:
My brother, it is a big deal when you're Barcelona.
A very big deal. Stop hiding behind lowered expectations and support your team to the full.

This season, no respect for big teams so far. Madrid lost @ home, and Valencia(another top 6 team) is currently losing @ home to freaking Leganes.

I hope for maximum 3 points tonight.

Unlimited22:
What if they don't?
I was thunderstruck earlier today when I realised ALAVES, of all people, were atop La Liga.

La liga is on crazy mode this season. Na Sidon look mode we all dey. I expect Madrid out of top six by Sunday night.

Unlimited22:
If you like, no win Sevilla.

Sevilla is better than man United currently, so it shouldn't be a big deal if they score a point tonight.

Unlimited22:
Debroslink trolling when he's not sure of beating Sevilla.

I expect #PasstoMessiFC tactics to work tonight at least.

Sevilla is on super form @ the moment, but Messi is still Messi.

Mourinho against Barcelona and Chelsea suppose be PPV anytime any day

The goal pain Mourinho die

FLOP of the match

Hidden Ikebe Super Hazard.

TefBarzz:
If the idiot Suarez has the ball,looks for messi.Alba,coutinho,busquet have the ball,they look for messi.So no individual genius and brilliance in this team?

Dembele that scored a brilliant solo goal in UCL has been relegated to the bench.

The team with #PasstoMessiFC tactics can make Messi score 100 goals this season, but that tactics can't deliver when the ovation becomes loudest

Thank God guys are beginning to see the #PasstoMessiFC tactics that won't get us any UCL @ the end of the day.

Nice match so far

Olamyyde:
roberto with huge potentials? Nigga is already 26 and an average rb at best. Denis suarez should have left immediately when arthur and vidal came, they are just wasting his talent.

Even Hazard @ 27 is still regarded as one with huge potentials by Chelsea fans.

Is Roberto a natural RB? Dude was seen as the heir to Iniesta's midfield role, but our Spanish Mourinho isn't helping matters.

Baddestguyp:
No one wants to win la liga this season

7 points between 1st and 18th

Baddest and most competitive league in the world right now. Anybody can beat anybody.

yorhmienerd:
That Malcolm case is vexing me seriously

I hate seeing that guy in Jean and T-shirt in every match while the likes of Arturo Vidal and Suarez makes the squad.

The only consolation is that Valverde would not start next season as a Barca coach

Problem of Suarez is he needs competition. When Dembele was scoring, Suarez picked goal scoring form too. But our Spanish Mourinho has ruined Dembele's momentum by sending him back to the bench.

As for Malcolm, I just pity his condition. I'm sure the useless coach will use him for Copa del Rey matches. Do you notice that Sergi Roberto and Dennis Suarez have been frozen out too? These are guys with huge potentials. We don't even have a back-up for Alba.
