Honestly, like I pointed out some weeks back, Suarez has lost everything about being a striker, he can't jump to contest aerial balls without falling to the floor holding his head.

He can't dribble defenders and get through.
He can't maintain his striking position on the pitch. (drifts unnecessarily wide).
Contributed absolutely nothing in this game. (Even pique in his brief adventure upfront after the last goal gave Roma defenders something to do).
And to make matters worse, stood rooted, waiting for the ball to come to him, while defending a corner kick that blew our stay in the champions league away.

This is the first time anyone has described Suarez as a 'toothless' striker...

I'm not basing my judgment on this one game, but Valverde has to leave. We can't progress this way, we can't continue with a manager that wants to maintain the Status quo, he is just kind of papering over the cracks, which he is doing to a fault. He has this small club mentality which is a total aberration of the Barcelona status. Yes it worked and is working in the league but the fault in that system has been showing in UCL.

We bought a winger for over 100 million and Valverde is more concerned about improving the defensive aspects of Dembele's game, rather than trying to improve his attacking threat. I'm still surprised about how he has been managing to keep such an expensive player on the bench without the board reacting, because normally when an expensive player is bought, the manager is always under intense pressure to play him even if he is playing nonsense.

We need a Coach that can create a system to alleviate Messi's burden, which player does what Messi do almost every match? Control midfield, create chances and still score bucket loads of goals? Once that system is created, we wouldn't be so dependent on Messi again. This criteria is very important, and I don't think Valverde is capable of doing it, which is why I want him to leave. Yes it would destabilise the team, but the earlier the better.

Bruvvv..Madrid three peats and that double means fück all...

Danny Ings > Messi

Olamyyde:
Umtiti should get a freaking grip...just because he is underpaid doesn't mean he should play like shit. Nigga has been playing shit since the transfer rumours

VivaLaByke:
Wait...this man's first substitution was bringing on Andre Gomes for Iniesta at the 81st minute.

This is actually worse than Luis Enrique's Jordi Alba for Lucas Digne substitutions.

this game i believe sealed valverde's fate. we have lost games o but this one is just funny because the team we lost to even though they weren't favourite should have been easy for us. i must say give ronaldo the balon d'or cos its clear that my favourite player hasn't been living up to standard (lets be frank). finally we can argue about guard of honor since thats been the issue on our head since. also we should get rid of tata martino's reincarnate and find someone that can deliver champions league.
