    Xavi Hernández

    It's not a disaster because we had an okay CL campaign and showed we can compete with PSG. It's just disappointing in the context of the season where we haven't won anything. But it is much more positive than last season in terms of Europe. We proved that we are on the level at least of teams...

    Kylian Mbappé

    I guess part of the equation is the top players are watched much more in knockout games but he didn't look good even when he got the ball in space, and came up 1v1 against Kounde multiple times first leg and couldn't do much. Barcola and Dembele were much better.

    Xavi Hernández

    PSG also did win against Chelsea in R16 with Zlatan sent off very early in the game. Unfortunately this type of stats aren't documented anywhere though I'm sure there are other examples (probably none like this situation though). The only direct comparison would be finding games where teams...

    Kylian Mbappé

    He scored a pen and a meaningless goal at the end. Didnt have much impact on either game.

    Xavi Hernández

    Is it the best attack in football though? On paper it might be, but they struggled against much worse teams in the group stage, they haven't proven anything like that. The proven best attacks are Madrid, City, Liverpool (not in CL this year), etc. PSG have had the best attack on paper for many...

    Xavi Hernández

    PSG is a great team but acting like 2 goals up with 10 men is some insurmountable task is really not it. Plenty of teams have held with 10 men with leads in important games. That is part of the problem in being unwilling to adapt to new circumstances or adverse events in games. Stuff like that...

    Xavi Hernández

    The whining and histrionics from him is truly absurd. I get it's not all his fault but this guy comes across as massively delusional and egotistical whenever he has one of these episodes. He's complaining that the ref fixed the match over what was a clear red card. How can him and his team...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Not good enough. A few opportunities is all you'll get probably against these top teams as a striker, 0 goals across the 2 ties with a good few chances is not acceptable, disappointed again by this man, unfortunately.

    4 - Ronald Araújo

    It was terrible but we should be very careful not to pin the entire result on this one moment because we still had options being 2 goals up down a man, that's a defensible result. Often when we go behind or have an unfortunate event impact our game we get hung up on it and can never leave it...

    4 - Ronald Araújo

    Just let him score. There is a fair chance it might get saved anyway. Idiotic. He is used to making those risky fouls in LaLiga where the refs take a shine to him.

    La Liga Round 30: Cádiz - Barca 0-1

    These games dont matter much as long as we come up with the goods and get to the CL final.

    Xavi Hernández

    He has a very pragmatic style. We saw against PSG we don't really have a defined style, sometimes we sit back in a tight block, sometimes we hit on the counter, sometimes we try and hold the ball and play positionally.

    Europa League

    Serie A is still slightly behind LaLiga, but improving fast.

    Europa League

    Interesting you say that... what do you make of their strong 11 compared to ours?

    Xavi Hernández

    However, we do have to give Xavi credit if he makes it past PSG and gets to a CL final this season, whatever happens, this season would be better for me than last season. 1-0 against low table LaLiga fodder every game is much easier than beating a good rich team like PSG over 2 legs, teams like...

    Xavi Hernández

    The media and the club have been far more supportive of him than any other manager. I don't know what media outlets you refer to that consistently cover him negatively, but none really exist other than joke shows like El Chiringuito. The actual view of Xavi in the Barca establishment is very...

    CL Quarter Final: PSG - Barca 2-3

    Raphinha physical level is incredible. Even if he is technically not amazing, he will always score goals, endless running and good shooting.

    CL Quarter Final: PSG - Barca 2-3

    I dont like those subs. We cant sub on two lazers.

    CL Quarter Final: PSG - Barca 2-3

    This happens... the intense panic that sets in any time we go behind exemplifies this team so much. That can happen in a game with momentum swings. Just keep playing the same. That's what Madrid are so good at.
