Not the best performance yesterday, but was expected, which was why I looked away each time fans here brag about going to the bridge and defeating Chelshit. It was never an easy tie, going by the history we have with them. However, we could have done better yesterday had it not been that the line up consisted strictly of the same guys that played over the weekend. This shows clearly, the players were fatigued and the only thing to do to get a decent result was to run less, have full control of the game, and not lose the midfield... At every time we had the ball in the middle, you could see at least 6 of our players close to the person with the ball, opening up as passing outlets.
From the opening 10mins, i knew EV didn't set out to win the game. We played full tiki-taka, with so many triangular passes but lacking in the high line pressing, which was needed to score. Yes, Chelshit were superb in limiting our chances, but they obviously didnt deserve to win. They didnt do so much to deserve to. They hit the post twice, yes... we hit the post thrice in 2012 on the same ground, amidst several shots on target... They had a few shots on target, yes. We had 1 or 2 and bagged a goal. Thats luck!
Well, the second leg would be a whole lot different, as i dont see us losing or drawing. I just hope our key players are given enough rest. Infact, I see no reason why A. Iniesta is still starting league games when P. Coutinho is there. More so, O. Dembele should play the next two games to afford him the needed match sharpness. Its obvious Paulinho S. is the most fatigued, as he was still playing in CHINA when most European teams were on holiday. D. Suarez or Vidal should get a nod ahead of him in some league matches.
And to the mor0ns and diickheads talking shiit about god-Messi; well, even if he didnt break the Chelsea jinx yesterday, we wouldnt have been bothered. He was a thorn on their flesh. He was a danger to behold each time he had the ball; you can see the obvious panic on the faces of the players and entire stadium. Thats why he is the GOAT.!!! |

tesppidd: that's my point!
argentina has an array of attacking talents, up to 8 world class attackers and only a maximum of 4 can feature in a starting eleven.
they then have an average midfield(after veron and riquelme, old man masherano has been their best midfielder for over a decade)
and a very average defence.
so how is that a world class team? it's a myth.
Spain Germany France Brazil did not win the world cup with average defence and midfield. Understanding this is not rocket science, but because they hate the divine god, they would rather draw up all manner of dubious yardsticks as to why Argentina has a better squad to Penaldo's Portugal, and god-Messi remains an underachiever despite such avalanche of stars in the national team.

When you allow a lowlife like Neymar1095 to drag you into petty diatribes, you do more harm to your mental health than you can handle. I have not seen a consistent slowpoke like him in my entire life. Sometimes, I wonder how he is in real life. How he lives off his day and night and what truly goes on in his mind... Was he raised an orphan? What sort of diet does he observe? What was his childhood like? etc.
In fact, dude looks suicidal as he has no real life outside of here. The people he engages in fights here with; his shrewd mind configures them as real life friends and the jabs he throws are simple reflections of his warped imaginations(the mind interpretation of a psychotic loose canon)- something chemically construed to reflect a biological mistake of sorts. To him, Nairaland is his playground, and those that engage him are his best friends... People like him are murderous and similar to those school-shooting nutjobs in the USA. Little wonder he cant go through 3-5 replies without a meme. Check his posts, and yall would see this. He is a nuisance to himself and in general, a social denigrate.
I advice yall to kindly ignore him. Neutrals would think yall are birds of a feather.
NB: I am sure he wont quote me but post a reply, a funny clap back. But sure, I wont honour him with a response. |

SerVik: Whoever said messi gets lost against chelsea doesn't know football. Messi is always very lively against chelsea. Even though 4-5 chelsea players were always on him he always found a way to wriggle out. Even though chelsea defense was always airtight, he still always gets his shots on target.
Man has just been unlucky. He even missed a pk and hit the bar. Chelsea won't be that lucky this time, I promise. It takes a chronic idiot to say god-Messi gets missing in a game. I mean; how can one go missing when the entire opposition team is set up to the defend against him alone? The Oracle from Rosario gets marked by 4-5 in every game and he thumbs up 98% of the time. No player has ever gotten such dedicated marking for the last two decades except him. Put a disciplined full back on Penaldo Tapnaldo and he cuts a frustrated figure. After 2-3 attempts, he runs to the other flank like a sissy coward. god-Messi remains the only player with the fear factor! |

PSG are so out... Madrid would beat them in Paris, as I don't see them doing better than they did tonight. This tie was always going to be won in the midfield, which of course has Madrid in upper strength. Clowns like A. Rabiot got nothing on Madrid's dynamism in the middle of the pack. Only two teams can take out this Madrid,and they are Barca and Bayern. PSG are simply no match! |

EV is a tactically sound coach! He did what i expected yesterday which obviously was not a fan choice, but needed nonetheless- the inclusion of A. Gomes. A. Gomes had just one role in that game- as the conflicted man. His job was simple, put in work on the right flank, although he would have been better on the left as he plays better with his right side to the opposition. He was supposed to be the alternative for passes going forward or backwards. He had no creative responsibility in the game. He was on the pitch for the duration required to keep the tie in the team's favour.
On the flip i feel so confident about this team. We have two solid goal keepers, a young defence and a cordinated midfield. Our attack? The best in the world. |

Miremoses1: Zidane has decided to sell Isco (AS)
The French coach has been disappointed by the player and has decided that if he is to remain at the Bernabeu next season, then Isco is to be sold.
Late night Spanish football television show 'El Chiringuito' have reported that if Zidane remains at the Bernabeu next season, one of the French coach priorities will be to sell Isco Alarcon.
Journalist Josep Pedrerol maintains that Zidane feels disappointed with the Benalmadena born player after depositing his fail in the creative midfielder following the departure of Colombian international James Rodríguez to Bundesliga side Bayern Munich.
Favouritism
"Isco was deemed as to more of a pivotal player than Colombian but has had a discreet and underwhelming season so far" claimed Pedrerol, after Zidane asked Florentino Pérez to offload James as he preferred to have Isco in his first-team squad.
He continued: "Zidane is ahuge admirer of Isco's style of play and what he can offer the team and for this reason opted to keep faith in the player deeming that he would be instrumental in the creative play of the side. After a discreet season so far, Zidane feels let down by the player and as things currently stand will request that the club offload the player in the summer transfer market should the French coach remain on the Santiago Bernabeu bench next season". LOL! The problem is not the player, but the manager. Under a great manager, Isco A. would be a god in midfield. Wish we could have him at Barca! |

I really want to access that guy because at the moment; I don't fancy him even though I haven't really watched him aside YouTube vids.
I just don't feel the guy He doesn't seem like Barca material to me.
He is similar to defenders like varane, smalling etc and I personally don't like such lanky defenders
Guys what's ur take on the mina fellow He's a pretty good defender if you ask me. He's like a faster version of G. Pique; skillful on the ball and with the ability to work the ball from defence. He'd play with time. |

Too many creative players on the field of play and maybe fatigue from the Thursday game can be said to have caused the team's performance yesterday. There was little or no bite in attack. Plus P. Coutinho was clinging to the ball quite needlessly, something reminiscent of Neymar JNR.
More so, playing J. Paulinho as a CMF is suicidal. Against the big guns, the team would suffer. He plays better offensively as he lacks the creative comportment to organise things in the middle. He was exposed time and again and were it a very confident team, D. Alaves should have gotten up to 3 goals from the several counters they launched.
Overal, i think EV has done a good job so far and has proven to be a tactically sound coach who reads games and time his subs properly. He discovered there was great difficulty with penetrating from the middle and then instructed the players to play through the left flank most especially. That unarguably was why he kept Emperor Iniesta, removed L. Digne, brought on J. Alba to torment that flank. Then S. Roberto (a better offensive player) for N.Semedo the tactically efficient man.
I hope we just stay unbeaten till the end. |

Newbiee: THE UNDISPUTED FACTS His Offence. . PMB stopped over N2trillion subsidy payments to the almighty cabals. He stopped the payment of over N30billion monthly salaries to 50,000 national ghost workers. He withdrew the license of rice, salt, sugar etc from one individual and spread the license to various interested group of people so as to stop the issue of monopoly. He ordered the enforcement of BVN in the banking industry which stopped the illicit fraud perpetrated by private and public officials. He ordered the enforcement of TSA where a single government parastatal operated over 43 accounts siphoning funds without remittance to the Federation Account He ordered the enforcement of payment and salaries of National Assembly members to be done through TSA. He stopped the importation of rice from Thailand which our leaders used to siphon billions of naira yearly He blocked all the loop holes in the public sectors even though some avaricious Nigerians still cut their ways through sometimes. He exposed the corrupt practices in the judiciary He did same in the national assembly He exposed them all in the Nigeria Police, Nigeria Army, Navy, Air force and prosecuted the corrupt officials involved. He exposed Patience Jonathan N13b looted fund, N15b, N11b worth of hotel in Bayelsa, N2.5b laundered funds to her housemaids He exposed Ikoyi's gate N13b NIA funds. He exposed N4.7b Ekiti election fraud given to Fayose by Obanikoro He exposed the $2.1b insurgency funds shared among Femi Fani Kayode, Olisah metuh, Bafarawa, Nduka Obaigbena, Raymond Dokpesi and others He exposed the illicit dealings in the legislative house He stopped the padding of our national budget by the National Assembly members He enforced the law to retrieve the N11b loan granted to Ben Murray Bruce which he refused to pay for 10years He exposed our Christian community where N7b was shared to them for election campaign by Jonathan He Enforced the EFCC to go after Ifeanyi Ubah who sold N11b worth of crude oil and pocketed same without the knowledge of NNPC He Exposed Saraki undeclared assets/looted funds. He stopped Intel(Atiku's Company) where trillions of Nigeria money was not remitted to the federation account over the years He exposed our unscrupulous leaders both in APC and PDP even if the law could not prosecute them because of the lacuna in our laws. Through Nigeria Customs, FIRS, JAMB, NIMASSA, Nigeria was able to realize over trillions of Naira remitted to the federation account,the first in Nigeria history. PMB refused to die. He refused to be paralysed. He refused to give up on Nigeria and Nigerians. They spread false reports against him, God exposed their lies. They did everything, they found nothing to pin him down with especially on corruption. . Why would they not hate him? Why would they not wish him dead? Why would they not spread false reports against him? Those who never benefitted anything from the national looters are always right behind defending those who put them in their sorry states. Curse him, wail, cry, shout, grumble, fumble, hate and even jump into the biggest ocean...he who God has blessed, no man can curse. You prefer the devil and I prefer PMB, the God sent, the choice is mine. .

I. Rakitic had a fabulous game yesterday. I give him an 8/10. Like i have always said; playing him deeper and giving S. Busquets the enforcer role is the way to go, thus giving us two quiet and able Central midfield players bringing grit in the middle and added presence at the back. I. Rakitic is crucial to the stability in this Barca team in a two-man CMF in either 4-4-1 or 4-5-1.
Now, that telepathic pass from god-Messi is one of million reasons why its erroneous to compare Bragnaldo with him. No one in the game, bar a few geniuses like Like Emperor 'Dinho and Zizou, has such vision and ability to pull that through. That pass was totally out of this world.

Rakiticbarca: to be honest, I don't really see Griezman as that lethal 9 needed by barca, he is not a world class striker if am asked, I don't just see what the guy plays so why buying him with such a huge amount of money. I have watched A. Griezman a number of times, and can say there is nothing he does that M. ElHaddadi cant do. Its absurd to spend such amount on him, and that is if at all he is even needed. He thrives in Athletic not because he is a great striker but simply because he plays in a system where emphasis is placed on defensive stability even when the team plays on the offensive in a game. In my opinion, P. Alcacer is a better CF. Check out his goal ratio. |

Dude has some crazy add ons to his sign on fees per number of games played. So, the coach is under instructions to play him less this season. So, no need to panic. The player himself is aware. It's business, and the coach saves the club money. We'd see him fully from next season. |

People forget too often that Pep's team led the league for an initial couple of weeks, till he started to experiment and impose his ideas on the players who either lacked the ability to replicate his ideas on the field or were awed by the tactical tweaks he brought up. Thats something a lot of managers dont have the balls to do. He is winning now, not because he spent the most, but because he has the kind of players to play his brand of football. And yes, they are not entirely fantastic players. |

DrinkLimca: Bro no offence but Denis Suarez do not even deserve to sit on Barcelona's bench..
He is the second worst player in Barcelona after Luis Suarez as we speak..
Denis Suarez that could not even trap a ball in our match against Villarreal, yesterday..
He is the reason Barcelona failed to score like 5 goals in 1st half of yesterdays game..
You can even tell that messi and some of the rest forward players were kind of angry at him, with the look on their faces. We need the exact replica of iniesta in Barcelona, and it is only coutinho that has the iniesta DNA. Like i said in an earlier post, our current formation is crappy. A 4-4-2 is too narrow to have any room for creativity. There is a reason even someone as great as Emperor Iniesta struggles to create chances currently, or do we count the number of times god-Messi has been dispossessed this season. The reason is not far, he is limited in space as he normally gets from a 4-3-3. That is the problem with D. Suarez. His best games have come when the team changed shape to wide and triangular play. And yes, the manager shows little faith in him. |
