So Atletico Madrid inherited Tottenham's 4th position league finish and has taken the 2nd leg at home. How did Tottenham even finish in the top 4 ? They have been so poor, just like other EPL teams that finished in top 8. Also looking at the top 8 finish, there is no major advantage of finishing between 5th and 8th position except playing 2nd leg at home in the round of 16 and skipping playoffs. From the quarter finals, you're almost guaranteed to play a team who finished in the top 4 or a team who defeated the team that finished in top 4, and who will thus inherit their position. So, finishing top 4 is way more important than finishing in top 8. Now, if we reach the semifinals, we must play the 2nd leg away from home again. Even if Sporting Lisbon were to beat Arsenal, they will inherit their privileges and our situation will remain unchanged. Apart from the extra playoffs, finishing outside the top 8 is long term more beneficial than finishing outside top 4 especially deep into the tournament when 2nd leg at home can be a significant advantage. |

Curiously, FC Barcelona haven't lost any game without Frenkie de Jong this season. In the 15 games he's missed, Barça have won 14 and drawn just one. With him, Barça have 21 wins, 2 draws and 7 defeats. [@culemanias] I know someone who will be very interested in this stat ![]() But for me, matches are different and it is obviously a team event. Winning or losing a match shouldn't be pinned to a single player. There are several reasons why we might win or might not win a particular match and it is never down to a single player. |

Joan Garcia, Pau Cubarsi, Pedri, Dani Olmo, Fermin Lopez, Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres all called up for Spain. That’s 7 Barcelona players. That bald De la Fuente should know that the Spanish national team is nothing without Barcelona players 😎 He should know this when he runs his mouth and attacks Hansi Flick |

Is Marcus Rashford really worth the €30M or should we be seeking a replacement for him? |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by jpmoriarti(m): 12:23pm On Mar 20 |
SpencerForbes:Having now not played a single minute in back to back matches, questions are rightfully being asked. His longterm suitability to Hansi Flick, who now seems not to trust the English man as he used to, is being doubted. Again, he hasn't challenged Raphinha at all in that LW position even though it is not the Brazilian's natural position and the Brazilian has been out of form before rediscovering his scoring touches in recent matches. Rashford has flattered to deceive in the last few games he had played. Lack of consistency and sometimes poor work rate. I guess a renewed interest from Manchester United may have unsettled him. He was about to become the top man everyone knew he could be but now, it seems doubts are creeping back into his game and he has seemingly lost the momentum he had gathered. I hope Hansi Flick can at least give him some minutes against Rayo on Sunday. |

jpmoriarti:I’m looking at Marcus Rashford vs Ferran Torres for Lewandoski potential replacement. I don’t think we’ll be able to get a top notch no. 9 for now. |

Debroslink: ![]() That's an expected statistic nah lol. Anybody with a decent ball knowledge knows you're always more likely to lose a football match against top oppositions with a profile like Dejong on the pitch.

AirBere:Lmao we Barça fans, we have our expectations for this UCL and we'll take the games one by one 😉 😀 However, Chelsea season is already over. The players are revolting against the club and Enzo Fernandez is asking openly why Maresca had to be sacked 😂😂 They obviously don't trust this current coach. So i think you guyz got bigger problems than the 8 - 2 thrashing you got from PSG. I'll focus on that if I were you |

SpencerForbes:There is a No1 Rashy fan on this thread,na him get this mail. Blud was comparing Rash to A whole Ralph(Pressing machine). ![]() |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Nobody: 11:43am On Mar 21 |
Bimmarlykay:Na lie oo😂😂😂 I be Ralph for life. My faves are pedri, Joan Garcia and Yamal but for Ralph, sometimes he has bad games but he’s proven himself in the past. So I can’t write him off. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Bimmarlykay(m): 3:48pm On Mar 21 |
SpencerForbes:Lol ...you see Ralph ehn,that guy's energy makes me wonder if he gat no GF... you'd see him always working his arse all over the pitch with no sign of tiredness. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Nobody: 3:52pm On Mar 21 |
Bimmarlykay:Ralph is a great player without their trio last season, we wouldn’t have gone far and he even won champions league POTW last week (even with the few bad games) na our man, we must criticize him but we can’t hate him. Rashford can be his substitute but I’ll always choose a fit raphina over Rashford. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Techu: 5:44pm On Mar 21 |
I don't see Atletico Madrid knocking us out, at least not after what happened in the Copa Del Ray... Our concerns should be the Semis with Arsenal.. Because I know they will defeat sporting. And once the boys reach the Semis they would give their all to reach the final. It's time for us to pay Atletico back. Only concern now is all these injuries... We need all players back. 3 first team players sidelined ain't a good thing. Flick needs all options and quality bench, so as to help minimize injuries. WELL, ONE GAME AT A TIME.. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Nobody: 6:27pm On Mar 21 |
Techu:If we take it one game at a time, beating Arsenal should be more straightforward than clubs we’ve faced in the past (semi finals). I’m honestly relieved Araujo is out of that center-back role for now. Once we get Kounde to hold down the other wing, we’ll be solid. But Arsenal will definitely be a tough nut to crack, but this team has faced much bigger hurdles in the past and come out on top. I’m just praying Lewy and Raphinha find their full form again—if those two are firing, that’s easily our greatest strength. |

Flick is a world class coach

A very happy birthday to Ronaldinho

| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Techu: 8:24am On Mar 22 |
SpencerForbes:Beating Arsenal would be difficult but overall it would be an interesting match. Barca would win though... Infact that match would be unpredictable. Arsenal is not a low block and counter attacking team like newscastle, they are equally as possessive as we but we are more possessive than they. I do hope atletico win/draw Madrid today so we extend the lead at the table. Although I don't care about laliga sha. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Leyqute(m): 8:49am On Mar 22 |
Techu:Don’t deceive yourself. Arsenal has the capacity and quality to low block you guys and use counter to wound you. Their midfield and defence is strong enough to neutralize your attacks. They just need their forwards to be clinical on that day. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by Nobody: 9:02am On Mar 22 |
Leyqute:I’m expecting Arsenal to go for a total lockdown if this happens. Our biggest strength is clearly in the midfield and attack, while Arsenal really thrives in their defense and transition play. It’s basically going to be a battle of our front line against their back four. If our strikers stay clinical, we can definitely outscore them, but one off-day from the boys and Arsenal will definitely pounce on those chances. I just hope our defense can keep its shape and stay disciplined throughout. I’m definitely seeing goals on both sides for this one. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by jpmoriarti(m): 1:09pm On Mar 22 |
Let's go out there and handle business against Rayo Vallecano this afternoon. Hansi Flick goes all out with a strong lineup. We need to guarantee we must remain in first place before Atletico Madrid match after the international break. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by OkpaNsukkaisBae(m): 1:51pm On Mar 22 |
The team is paying tribute to Ronaldinho
|
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by AirBere: 2:07pm On Mar 22 |
jpmoriarti:Lol 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 With Araujo starting? Barca nearly conceded in seconds because of his lack of positioning at RB. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by COOL10(m): 2:18pm On Mar 22 |
Raphinha misses a one on one 🙆🏽♂️ |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by AirBere: 2:20pm On Mar 22 |
Ralph will end the game with a second yellow(red). That miss sums off his game so far so good. |
| Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by COOL10(m): 2:27pm On Mar 22 |
That was a clear penalty. La Liga refs are disgusting |
