Moura7:Messi actually reads the game perfectly. And he'll know for sure that our midfield lacks creativity. He mostly drops deep to be the creative outlet. At man-city, there'll be minimum need for that. His groove would come back. 2 Likes |

SonOfAfonja: True! At this point in his career, he needs a team where he wouldn't have to do loads of work. How Juventus plays to Ronaldo's strength comes to mind. It's either you can play the piano or you carry it. Messi can definitely play the piano, others should be allowed to carry it(if u know what I mean). 1 Like |

joviegghead:. The truth is, of all the wingers we have, dembele is clearly the most talented. But when it comes to having maturity in terms of tactical awareness, positional play, ball retention, knowing when to dribble and when to pass, he comes behind Fati and Trincao. He was late for training once more this week. Which shows he still doesn't understand the discipline required to be a top footballer. Talent isn't just enough. Anything above 80million wouldn't be a bad deal in my opinion. |

haymekus: The truth is, If busquet and pique maintain their positions in the team on a regular, then I'm personally not expecting much from Barça this season. |

Sommyroy10: Trust me it doesn't always work this way. Sergio busquet should have the best positioning for a defensive midfielder, but we all know how much he gets exposed. The modern day DM should still be able to cover loads of ground. |

Sommyroy10: But his performance ensured he nailed a place in the team. Ruqui's performance everytime he was given a chance towards the end of the season were top notch. That made up for nothing. In recent years with Barça, It just feels like an hierarchy thats almost impossible for the young players to break. Especially if u didn't come in for loads of money and u're just a La Masia product. |

Ikennablue: I personally think the amount of money spent buying a player plays a role in his selection, especially at barca. At bayern, we all saw how a certain canadian left-back kept Bayern and bundesliga record signing Lucas Henandez out of the team. Team selection should be solely based on performance. Its a shame that money and experience plays a key role at Barcelona. At least that the only reason I can think of as to why pjanic and busquet would still get the nod over Riqui and Alena. Its left for him to go on loan, preferably a team in laliga or maybe Ajax and show his talent. Odegaard would start making the starting lineup after his loan spell. I guess a loan isn't all bad. |

Sommyroy10: We can only wait and see. If its true, I really hope it isn't a permanent deal. At most, a loan |

tesppidd: Lol, A player that would still top our goal and assist stats again once the season starts officially. Messi is his problem, he's just set the bar so high. So anything that doesn't resemble that youthful left-footed Argentine running up and down the pitch that people could relate with 10years ago still doesn't do it for certain people. 2 Likes |

A quick question before the Champions League final kicks off: What are the odds of PSG beaten Bayern? I personally don't see any. Anyone with a different opinion? |

joviegghead: If Suarez stubbornly decides to finish his contract, it would be hard getting rid of him trust me. Except Barça follows the man-utd route with Sanchez. That would mean paying him a considerable amount of money from the salary his meant to earn in his last year. Van de beek is attacking minded, that would hamper the growth of Puig and Alena. If the coach really wants to give "La Masia" a chance, signing an attacking midfielder is the least of our worries right now. Coutinho might even become reborn if he's allowed to play there, who knows. |

haymekus: Sergio busquet still has 3 years to run down his contract. I sure he was 30yrs at the time he signed his extension. How the board gave that man a 5-year contract sums up how myopic they've been. |

From Pique: “Shame is the word. You can’t play like that, you can’t play in Europe like that,” he said. “It is neither the first, nor the second, nor the third time. It’s very hard, we all have to reflect. “The club needs changes and I’m not talking about the coach, about the players. I don’t want to point at anyone. Structurally we needs changes of all kinds, because it is neither the first, nor the second nor the third time. “The first one to volunteer will be me, if new blood has to come in and change this dynamic I will be the first to go, to step aside. ”Now we have hit rock-bottom. I think we all have to look and reflect internally and decide what is best for Barca, which is the most important thing.” I hope Busquet follows suit. Dude has become too slow and weak over the years. He could still start against average teams in Laliga but DeJong has to cement his place as our Pivot. Things definitely has to change 3 Likes |

DissTroy: U're 100% right. In my opinion, the board could still cut their loss. For example, Griezmann would still command a transfer fee of 60-70 million. Suarez could also be sold for 10-15 million. An MLS team would definitely be intrested. That money could be used to get a youthful attacker that would fit into our style. Too many old heads at Barcelona, no priority on youths. I guess we'll just have to see what happens in the coming weeks before the start of the new season. 1 Like |

I guess I was right with Busquet and Roberto being overwhelmed. Why do I still feel like Puig could have made an impact had he started the game. U watch how Sergio Roberto last the ball for the 2nd goal and just wonder why he started this game after being the worst player against Napoli. If Ure trying to defend a lead and need an attacker to drop back, then Griezmann is definitely the man. I certainly don't know what the coach was thinking bringing on Griezmann while we chanced the game. I can't recall any attack Griezmann instigated. Fati was more of an ATTACKING threat in the few minutes he came on. Ter Stegen played his worst match in a Barca shirt. Finally, Setien has to go! |

peterd53: The same Puig that bossed the midfield against Atletico Madrid? Maybe At.Madrid is a small team or u are referring to another Puig. The truth is they're some players that don't really feel pressure. I see Puig in that light. If given the chance this evening, I'm sure he'll deliver. |

Having Griezmann in the lineup today was like playing with only 10men, my worry is how only Messi provides the attacking threat, with very rare glimpse from Suarez. Once Bayern can close down Messi, it's game over for Barça! Can someone explain why rakitic got the nod ahead of Puig in the midfield? I thought of it and experience was the only answer I could provide. The penalty he gave away didn't reflect the 'experience' factor tho Finally, going by Setiens lineup today, I wouldn't have my hopes up on seeing dembele against Bayern. 4 Likes |

Barcelona just kept on passing for no reason, no through balls. Griezmann got lost. I understand how Alba provides the left-width in our new formation but Ansu fati isn't a bit effective on the right wing either. Can't recall him dribbling past Valencia's left back once. |

Adekaka12345: If u saw the first leg which we won, u'd admit that they were the better side. It was just one of those nights in football were nothing goes in ur favour no matter what u do. I'm not sure we'd get that lucky again. To think they've improved on last season, this time I'll put my money on them beating us home and away. Just like Bayern did that year. 3 Likes |

After watching our defeat to Levante, I came to the conclusion that we lack that voice that'll constant remind the players on the need to cover grounds, win those 50-50 balls, stick ur foot in etc. The pep, klopp or conte kinda barking At a point in the 2nd half when the score-line was still 0-1, if u paid attention to how some players were strolling, u'd think Barcelona were leading by 4 goals. It doesn't also help much that Messi is also quiet on the pitch. A Puyol kinda attitude would have kept the lads on their toes. If only Valverde would use passion and drive to make up for what he lacks in tactics. Sometimes, His expressions and body language drive me crazy. 2 Likes |

Spain boss Robert Moreno has been talking about Lionel Messi and has lavished praise on the Barcelona captain. Moreno knows Messi well from his time at Barcelona where he working alongside Luis Enrique initially with the B team and then with the senior side. The 42-year-old is under no illusion that Messi is the greatest player ever and spoke about what it was like to work with the Argentina international. “He’s the best player in history. It was incredible to see him in training every day,” he said. ”What you can see in matches on TV we would see every day. Leo plays another game to everybody else. You can’t train him, you are with him - he is football. You help the other players to adapt to him, his movements and decisions. ”With Leo it’s like The Matrix. He can see the movement of the legs of the opponent, and he sees the movement of the goalkeeper and has the ability to react. ”There’s no other player in history that has done that. Leo is god.” 6 Likes 1 Share |
