Gabriel Jesus makes his debut for Barcelona, replacing Pedri

0 - 5!!


Lamine with the 2nd goal.

We have been just brilliant in all areas. Never seen Barca look this enchanting!

We are a serious defence from competing seriously for the UCL. Rodri just dey gbadun himself in that midfield today. He will be vital going forward

jpmoriarti:
2 assists and 1 goal for Fermin!!

This guy is a 150m euro player and we paid 0 euro for him.

So so grateful to La Masia

Chelsea should never try that nonsense they did again. If we sold him to them for £30m they'll have flipped him for at least £70m

What about striker?

Alvarez go just dey swear for tico. See heavy metal football that prison denied him

We will still sign a striker in the future but currently our wingers and AMs are compensating well without one

Cancelo go dey regret why e terminate his contract with hilal

Ntoor

A striker who's isn't a Raphinha or Alvarez profile will affect free flowing football because most real strikers are very static. They operate in and around the box. Alvarez doesn't, Raphinha doesn't.

Anyways, till then..

That's why we went for Alvarez na but a static striker should still do well in this system as long as he's clinical cause of the numerous chances we create. That's why I want my defence to be better to help the other positions

Lol I don't think this one is true sha

This is definitely fake. Julian was subbed into the match and was on pitch until full time

Kilishihunter:
This espart kid is a crazy talent. Versatile like Sergi Roberto back then

One thing I've noticed in Flick's Barca is that he has at least one player who can play at least 3 positions anyday anytime. And the player is mostly available almost all through the season.

Flick did this with Eric Garcia last season. Espart is the new experiment. Also, I don't think this should be really hard. I heard La Masia train youngsters to be able to play at least 3 different positions across the pitch before they gain specialization in adulthood.

Remembering this just makes me laugh at times.... I can remember a time when many Barca fans here wanted Eric Garcia sold and labelled him a bum. Now e be like say many peeps don get selective amnesia of those times.

That's football discuss in general and in professional football, your coach is one of the biggest determiner of your future.

Under Xavi, Koeman or Valverde, Araujo will be #1 name on the team sheet and captain. But under Flick he's been loaned and soon, he'll be outrighly sold.

Under Xavi, Koeman or Valverde, Eric will be a bench player. Probably sold to Girona by now. If Xavi was the coach, Martin will be playing at Levante or in the championship with Wolves.

Xavi was almost sold to Ac Milan Under Louis Van Gaal. Van Gaal also made sure that Riquelme; one of the best players in the world then, failed at barca and eventually sold to Villareal. May be another manager woulved gotten the best out of Riquelme.

So yes, Eric was a bum, he was very weak then but Fiick changed his future. While Eric thrived and stayed, Araujo is one foot out while Kounde is now looking like a bum and may be sold. This is professional football in general.

This is why your contribution to this thread is always appreciated by me, unlike some so-called fans who will come out from their holes to insult people and forming a sage in trash talks.

Lots of our players have started the season in stunning form. Raphinha, Fermin even Lamine Yamal.

This is wonderful news for us. However, nothing is decided now. The season only just started. Games will come in thick and fast. The challenge now is to see how far this can be sustained.

Our doctors should be working extra time on the players to keep them in this top shape and the coach should also adequately manage the player’s minutes.

Lamine and Raphinha played the whole game yesterday when it was obvious at 75th minute, that the points were already secured. I think this was needless and other players like Balde, Hamza would have benefited from playing the remaining minutes.

Unless the coach has given up on Balde, he hasn’t had a single minute this season while Xavi Espart who has deserved his minutes, has played all the minutes. How can Balde improve if he doesn’t get playing time?

The champions kickoff their way to Madrid visca Barca 💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙
Easy win for the boys

Lineup

Rain falling at camp Nou, they should fast track completion of the stadium, everywhere empty.

What a goal from Raphinha!!

Meanwhile, Its raining too much today in Barcelona. First rain of the autumn and it chose today to rain

We have started the game in a stunning fashion despite the pouring rain. The intensity is high and we have kept Feyenoord at the back foot

Adeyemiiiiiiii!!!

What a stunner!!!

How can Adeyemi miss all those easier goals and now he's scoring R2 from outside the area!!!

But Im not impressed with what Joao Cancelo is playing today. Lots of misplaced passes in attack and he's also not defending well. He's output so far is below Xavi Espart.

Cancelo with a great chance but he crashes his effort against the woodwork

HT 2-0.

Pedri losing too many possession. Not impressed.
Same with Cancelo. At this rate, Xavi Espart will put both Balde and Cancelo for permanent bench.

Nice game from Yamal. His dribbling has been superb & breathtaking. Feyenoord defenders can't catch up

Feynoord should overload their right hand side and immediately switch play to thier left hand side, targeting Kounde. The amount of space he is leaving behind is glorious.

Kounde is done at top level footie.

Cancelo isn't making a case for himself.
Pedri has misplaced some passes, same as olmo.

Kounde! Oh Kounde!
