Eruditor:


It is easy so see how. If EV wins a treble this season he will be the first coach in Barca history to do so. Also, he would have been doing it in his first season, unlike Enrique or Pep.

Why?

jpmoriarti:
This is petty! Like you're the only one that has mummy or that obeys there mummy. Smh!

see when you dont understand something, don't comment on it.

Retirement from?
Is he still playing football??

Yes he still playing in Qatar.

How do we persuade Barca's board to sign Luka Jovic? I love Suarez o, but old age can't be ran away from, we need a young 9...

We should be having a new younger striker next season and i want to believe the board is working on it.
unless if the formation we used when dembele came in yesterday is supposed to mean something
4-4-2 with messi and dembele up front?

That's if Valverde will still trust Dembele as much as he did before that miss.

Dembele should be forgiven
He missed a string of matches due to injure and he's just trying to match the tempo of our game in recent times
he rarely sees game time sef and the match b4 liverpool was his first 90-min match in a very looong time

You should have just stopped at 'Dembele should be forgiven.'

These excuses aren't it.

errm...you're right
maybe im trying too much to defend him

Dembele plays well with Messi sha but the thing, we need a cold blooded striker, Suarez will miss "easy" chances to score and score the more difficult ones we should have scored more goals throughout the season but missing chances won't help us. Lets get a new striker, Suarez by the end of the season can write his name in the annals of Barca history but the time has come to look forward

Everything is looking towards an all English Europa final.

I no blame them sha.

Sevilla nor dey.

Not enough reason. I can bet if pique saw that chance, he would have buried it.

Guys, now that we have won La liga, and we have a second leg UCL semi final match against Liverpool on Tuesday. I expect most of our starting 11 to be rested for our league match against Celta Vigo tomorrow.

Who do you think should be rested and who should play?

I would want to see Cillessen, Umtiti , Todibo, Charles Alena, Riqui Puig, Boateng, Malcolm, Murillo, Vermaelen (if not injured) and Moussa wague play.

Let's see what they have to offer.

That miss was too basic abeg..


For a double footed person



Liverpool still have small hope cause of dembele

Dembele too needs to play. He needs to get his sh¡t together ASAP

That is no brainer.
Over the years, once the title is won before week 38 match, the remaining matches are mostly played with substitute players (or call it second squad players). So certainly, expect the likes of Cillessen, Todibo, Malcolm and the likes to feature. Although, you can expect one or two first squad players who may want to achieve a feat like highest goalscorer, appearance, fitness, cleansheet and the likes.

Did I hear you say highest goalscorer? Abeg Messi should rest o. E don win already.

LOL.
Just cited instances that may warrant first squad players. Had it been that the GOAT is at par with Benzema (this season second highest goalscorer) in goals tally, trust me, he will play!

Petition going against Messi for what seems to be a foul on Fabinho judged incorrectly by the referee resulting to Barça goal

Hope they won the petition...They can manage that as a success for the season

jpmoriarti:
I don't think Barca played poorly. They had a tactics and they implemented it to perfection. No matter what your tactics are in a two-legged affair such as this, you don't want your opponent to score in ur home. That was the main target. We'll be fools to imagine Liverpool does not have the firepower to score and they have only lost a game all season. They must be doing alot of things right.

I am not being over-confident or saying Liverpool do not have firepower, but the Barca players equally know what is at stake (especially after the debacle in Rome) and for some reason, the abilties of LFC is being grossly overrated...

Nothing dey happen jor, I stand by my comment 100%. This one is now a "dead-rubber"!

Seriously I am 99 percent sure the guys will get the job done on Tuesday.

But we have lost very badly recently;

PSG 4 - 0.
Juventus 3 - 0.
Roma 3 - 0.

I just can't help thinking of these results.

They must be stupid...did they see that milner's unnecessary body-check on messi at all?

I am still in doubt about an all english final.thanks to my club chelsea not winning away.
as for that sevilla talk.no be person knock them out.
IFFA SLAP U EHN

When we beat Real Madrid 1 - 0 in La Liga, and also after the match against Lyon (the 2nd leg) I typed on this thread, "BRING ON ANYBODY" then i was anticipating Man city or Juventus or Liverpool.
.
Today we are a clean sheet away from a UCL final or one goal away from UCL final, instead of being scared or being bothered, relax, this year is my year, this year is your year, this year is OUR year. Relax and forget that match, its in the past, we look forward

Valverde: "We consider tomorrow's game like the others, with the intention of adding three more points. It is true that we have a busy schedule and we will rotate."

Valverde: "It is clear that the tie with Liverpool is not done, the result is very good, but we know what Liverpool is capable of and we saw that in the first leg. Now I am focused on the game in Balaídos tomorrow."

Valverde: "Arthur is fine... He has been suffering from a physical problem for a long time but he is ready to play tomorrow."

Valverde: "Sergi Roberto is a midfielder who has gotten used to being a full-back, his advantage is that he is very versatile."

Valverde: "I do not know if Xavi is the best Spanish player ever, but one of the best for sure. One of the best midfielders, he understands the game of position and his passes were always transcendent, his footballing career is extraordinary."

Valverde: "Of course Xavi has the profile to be a Barça coach."

Valverde: "Criticism on our style against Liverpool? I have nothing to say, we won 3-0 and we have a very strong style and we are proud of that."

Valverde: "Ter Stegen has had a spectacular season, he transmits a tremendous security, he gives us a lot."

Valverde: "The signings of Murillo and Boateng? We have to assess how we were at that moment. We only had 2 fit centre-backs, they were emergency signings for what could happen."

Valverde: "I could use Cillessen for the remaining games in La Liga. We are very happy with him, he is a great goalkeeper."

Valverde: "Malcom is a player who has done better, both in games and in training. He has not had as many opportunities as others, but it is difficult to play here. He has adapted well and when he did played he has done well."

Valverde: "I do not care about how the press value our season."

Valverde: "I think Aleñá is ready to have a more important role in the team, I see him well. Last year he was the top scorer at Barcelona B and despite the strong competition in his position we have high hopes for him."

Valverde says teams at the bottom worried Barça won't pick full team vs. Celta should focus on their own games. "I remember Inter were worried about that, then we drew with Tottenham & they didn't win their game..."

Semedo - Sergi Roberto

� Valverde: "It depends on how the match goes. Some see them as two fullbacks, but Sergi has midfield training. He is versatile and we take advantage of him and Semedo is a very powerful player physically, with a great display. It is a solution for us."
