As much as i dislike Lahoz, he really was fantastic in that final, excellent control of the game, allowed play flow and only stopped play when it was absolutely necessary to stop play.
He really proved why he's the highest paid in the world and has a valid shot at being called the best ref in the world.
Great Guy.

You mean 4-5-1 formation...

You right about kante...

Wish we can replace Busquets with Kante...He is capable of playing as DM/CM near-perfectly... also can play as CAM & DF at ease...

Sell off Dembele, Coutinho & Griezmann and get our man...

Let's protest...

Replacing busquet with kante isn't that easy you know,it all depends on our style of play,kante wouldn't thrive on an obbesse possession style of play(check his time with sarri) sarri tried to reinvent him,although without much success.he revels in a counterattacking style of play where he can recover the ball and start up a counterattacking
Busquet is more tactically intelligent a better passer,and the fact that Messi only seems to make a run behind the defence,when busquet is on the ball(he seems to be the only one to pick out a pass to Messi)
All in all depending on the new coach,if we are to get kante,we should keep dembele and griezzmann,both are counterattacking specialist

Barcelona's women completed the treble yesterday, first team both male and female to do so. Congrats to star girl Oshoala.

Copa America at risk.

Argentina removed as host.

Two hosts getting problems at the same time, Argentina- Covid surge, Colombia- political unrest (typical with the Americas) Laslas it's either the US bails them out by accepting to host it or the competition is completely scrapped

He did excellent job.

He is retiring after Euro. I hope he gets Euro final job too if Spain is not there though

Kante ke? It's easier for Chelsea to get Messi right now than for kante to come over, though barca can still look for box to box midfielders that are similar to him. Football is getting more physical and technical by the day We don't have xavi or iniesta that would use dribbling and passing to outwit opponents in the midfield, busquets is older though his ball technique is still there There has to be some sort of physicality in that midfield

Quite right.

We've been debating on a that physicality issue all season.

We can't get Kante but we do need a "kante" in our midfield going forward.
I believe we've got a few others in the world.

He's got Malian roots but has the lungs of those athletes from Ethiopia and Kenya.

It’s official

Guy, why did you guys allowed Suarez to leave In the first place? this current aguero is shit. Right now Suarez is far more better

andrewbaba44:

And it's aggguuuuueeeeerrrrrrooo.
Bienvenidos Sergio Kun Aguero. Eric Garcia to follow later today. If we get depay, then we should be done with the attacking sector of the team for now

Suarez is a better player than aguero for sure

But saying this current aguero is shit is pure nonsense talk ,Na injury e suffer this season and that doesn’t make him a bad player

Yup no raw strength in that midfield, Wijnaldum coming might help short-term but how many years does he have left, ilaix is still a prospect and needs experience. Camavinga, soumare, tonali and other youngsters are there but money to sign them nko. To me I think the closest person to kante (I didn't say equal ooh) in terms of ballwinning and gameplay is Ndidi, He grew into the game and was splendid in the FA cup final, asides that nobody beats him in box to box abilities and recovery rate currently

I taya ooh though I'm not going to hype him, man hasn't even kicked a ball for Barcelona yet, even though Suarez is better than him, Barca still scored the most goals in la liga last season showing you that that other factors were at play

Yeah

I don't understand how Suarez is better than Aguero.
Before you argue, let me narrate this facts.
What support has Aguero been getting all this years?
Are you going to compare it with the massive supports Suarez has been getting all his life.
From wonderful players and midfielders in Liverpool to that of barcelona, not forgetting supports From Messi, Neymar, xavi, iniesta and co.
You cannot compare that to the support Aguero has been receiving all his years at man city.

It is much easier to score as a striker in a team like barcelona than in man city so let us give Aguero a break, even though injury has somehow affected him but on a good day, Aguero is equally as dangerous as lewandoski.
Put a fit Aguero in Bayern Munich and bench lewandoski, Aguero will still net more than 30 goals for Bayern.

Let us compare Aguero of atletico madrid to that Luis Suarez of Ajax and don't forget the competitiveness of both leagues.

Busquets should either play from the bench or find something else to do... What have his passes to Messi fetched us lately...Spanish cup??

Barca should learn not to depend solely on Messi as it is not working anymore...

Unfortunately, a 34year old aguero won't get barca anywhere close to UCL trophy anytime soon...

Brazil is the new host of copa America. Boost for their players

So how do we manage?

Fati
Messi
Dembele
Griezman
Depay
Aguero

Who starts? Who doesn't?

What formation are you looking at?

Surely Messi can't leave now.

Tbh I can't really pick who I think would start cause of the coaching and transfer uncertainty right now but I think Fati won't be a regular for now Griezmann and dembele are linked with other clubs especially dembele that hasn't signed a new contract so I reckon at least one of them leaving + Lord braithwaite. So apart from Messi (as usual) I'm seeing some crazy rotation in the front line So it might likely be a switch between 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 except koeman stays Well let's just see what happens in the coming days

This list is pure rubbish!

Why the fvck will Uefa include a RO16ist in their team of the tournament......ffs this midget ghosted against juve in both legs and couldn’t even score his penalty when abattoirlona needed him.

Thank you.

No Ronaldo?? Now fifa is looking for trouble
