True can't know for sure what Pep would have done with these players but looking at his Bayern team I would be persuaded to say he'd still try to play his style, not that theres anything inherently wrong with that. Also on a broader note, We were blaming lucho after the La Real loss, we blamed...

Funnily enough Messi being older next time will help Argentina more than a prime Messi (Unless Messi pulls a robben and is stil in his prime at 31). He'll dictate the midfield and provide all the creativity, and theres no shortage of young argentine attacking strength. Just needs a sturdy...

I hope Lucho lets the youngsters get some time, atleast Samper should get 10 mins or so hopefully.

Given the circumstances I don't think Pep would have been able to acheive what Lucho has with the players available. His style doesn't suit the current team . If Pep were here we'd have gotten Kroos/Thiago instead of Rakitic though and that'd probably give him the team he needed to achieve the...

Neymar is actually really good as CF too, not as good as Suarez or Messi obviously but his dribbling is just as effective.

I really hope we don't mess up in the final if we reach there, I just don't want this feeling of inevitability to let us down in the last moment as now we are down to what? 5 games? 4 if you count the fact that one of the liga games is a throw away essentially.

The fact that we'd have beaten pep for the treble gives them some credibility funnily enough :lol:

Ter Stegen Bartra - Pique - Alba Rakitic/Rafinha - Busi - Samper/Iniesta - Pogba/Iniesta Messi-Suarez-Neymar Would be my dream team for next season.

I don't think Pogba would fit with us right now, atleast not as an iniesta replacement. Iniesta even though he's an attacking midfielder was always a hybrid which is why he's been able to adapt to his new role in lucho's system. If Pogba is bought in this 4-3-3 I think he could only replace...

+1 he was epic in the champions league and against us in the league.

Ooooooooh, makes sense I never understood that :lol:

Then why was Laporta removed when we were playing the best football ever?

We need a player like Oliver Torres/Veratti/Samper/Thiago not another attacking midfielder imo.

I was defending him more than bringing him down, this is his first real big game imo, because the Dortmund he's had to face is nothing like the Dortmund from before. He has the talent, and if he really only went to Bayern because of Pep then I hope he improves as he should because theres always...

Some of those guys on the bayern forum are delusional, one guy said man for man bayern had the better players in all position except for Messi and Neymar while saying Lewandowski is better than suarez :lol:

Yeah he plays too much like a Pirlo to be our holding DM imo, doesn't have the positional discipline nor the defensive abilities to make it as our first choice DM unless he has two box to box midfielders next to him or unless he's in a double pivot-esque situation with busi.

We just won against bayern with 3 clear brilliant goals and have firmly cast ourselves as favorites to win the treble and you're angry about a couple seconds where neymar was a tad bit childish?

Well I mean when has thiago ever really shown to live up to the hype against a top opponent? Like he's never brought a team to victory in the top flight against another top team like xavi or iniesta. He still has a ways to go.

He was the final piece of the puzzle, he and busi held down the midfield allowing the front three to do their thing.

One foot in the final, on the precipice of a treble!!!!!
