Raphinha should be taking all the pk. He's better in penalty than Yamal. Besides, he is competing for pichichi. We don't need useless giveaway

Yeah no giveaways but I love the spirit of sharing from Raphinha. This is how you pull the whole team forward. At 4 -1 up, we can be a little charitable.

Seems goalkeeper Joan Garcia picked up an injury in this first half. Szcesney is coming on to replace him in the 2nd half. Maybe a precaution, as it shows he staggered at some point. Under this rainy situation, no need to take more risks.

Adeyemi is very fast. Defenders can't keep up

Lamine crashes a beautiful shot against the woodwork after an excellent legwork. Our prodigy is trying so hard to find the back of the net. Hopefully he finds one.

Yes very fast and very dangerous. I wouldn't want to play against him

This Betis player wey carry bush abi evil forest as hair

Bernal and Gavi in for Rodri and Pedri

U wan dey score from corner but u carry penalty dash Yamal

4-2 ke?

Really do not want Barca peaking this early in the season, then when it matters most they fall off a cliff.🥲

What is this fraud goalkeeper doing for fvck sake ?

4 -2

Sczesney just gifted them a goal. How??

I swear this polish fraud play bet

He should be investigated for match fixing

Another penalty. They just can't contain Adeyemi.

Raphinha dispatches it with authority!!

5 - 2

No wonder we bought another keeper. That polish fraud need to go back to wherever he came from

I thought we signed a 2nd goalkeeper? Why not use him ahead of this nonsense Szcesney? How can he hand the opposition a goal without them doing anything?

Omo, Hansi Flick has built a chance generation monster. It seems we produce goal scoring opportunity every other 2 minutes. It is incredible At a point, it looks effortless.

But already we have conceded 2 goals in 3 games. Not good at all for a team with UCL ambition

Alejandro Balde comes in for his first game of the season and the Camp Nou chants his name to encourage him.

Lovely to see!!

What a goal from Gabriel Jesus

6 - 2!

See how he opens his body to put that away.

Lamine with excellent assist.

Racing Santander has been torn to shreds in Camp Nou

This could have easily ended in double figures for us

Lamine finally got his goal!!

7 -2

What a incredible run from Adeyemi

My man of the match is Adeyemi. He has been electric all night.

Adeyemi is absolutely rapid. Arguably the fastest player in top 5 league.

We should add extra 40m to Dortmund for Adeyemi.

Adeyemi is just a joy to watch.

He plays 90 mins game today. He's just too good and the coach didn't even bother bringing on Gordon.

That defender that was tasked with marking him, he lived through a nightmare tonight.

Omo, I must go to Spotify Camp Nou to watch our next game after the international break.This is just too good from FC Barcelona. We can never take this for granted.

Final Score 7 - 2.

Racing Santander literally got their azzz handed to them

this defensive problems have been there for many seasons and is the reason for Barcelona's failure in recent UCLs.
Outscoring the opponent works very well in La Liga but won't work in champions league

Techu:
I told you guys Adeyemi is better than Gordon

Airbere how far
Balde.

He goes forward too much leaving the back exposed. And that's not good and he looks as though he loses awareness on the pitch but overall I prefer him.

My number one choice now is cancelo.

Balde goes forward too much, he was even in midfield. That's not good.

But I love his runs and he is good.

Balde is a bench player. Right now, Flick will not start him ahead of Cancelo and Espart.

abduleez1:
I dey tell you.... That Fermin and Gordon, prime runners still dey bench to feast when the Racing defenders tire out, especially that guy that caused two penalties. Dem go too target am.

We must sign a quality LCB this January. I no see excuse wey Deco go get that time.
E be like say na Balde go be the scapegoat to push out, cos I no understand that logic of saying a defender must leave before they sign someone else. I just feel they ain't too motivated to get one or unsure.

We can manage this defence till January when the business end of the season kicks off.

The attack fire power and midfield depth is giving me joy this season.
There was no need to even bring in Gordon and Fermin.
Fermin would have surely gotten a goal if he came on

The defence really needs a top tier LCB.
I guess the coach and Deco were uncertain who would fit in perfectly.
Nonetheless, we need a solid LCB.

No be today Balde dey do the bombing forward thing. He's a really good player, no doubt but he's not all that.
This same over attacking from him was why ATM whooped us 4-0. Go and watch the highlight again. Most of the goals came from Balde and Rashford leaving that wing very exposed.
Same with the Udinese match.
And to cap it off, Cancelo seems more effective when compared to the attacking output. So, why stress over Balde?
I cannot blame flick, honestly, I cannot.

I saw it today..

But he has good attacking instinct though.

He needs to be cautioned on going forward too much.
That over attacking aspect is true.

I still prefer him over espart though.

He should learn to stay back.

Techu:
How was his performance? You dey say bench player.


I prefer him over espart x10.

Cancelo should be number one for now.

His performance was meh. Wasn't impressive, just normal Balde ball.

Yep, he's a bench player!!!
