    Champions League 2022/2023

    Chelsea playing like pussies. Get forward and start attacking them. As soon as they conceded literally they created a sitter that Courtois made a world class save to stop, because now they want to play, lol. Playing with mental blocks.

    Champions League 2022/2023

    I think Chelsea can do better than this. Madrid aren't that good of a side and are defensively weak. If Chelsea are a bit more positive they can get a goal and push them back.

    Champions League 2022/2023

    Chelsea are much better than their league position suggests. Basically their only issue is their attackers can't hit a barn door with a banjo. Already it would be 1-0 if they had a proper striker instead of Felix.

    Champions League 2022/2023

    It's not like Tuchel is an improvement over Nagelsmann either or maybe barely in the eyes of some of his fans. Definitely not if he only had 10 days to prepare the game. There was no point making the change that late before the game as it was bound to lead nowhere good. With that said, Bayern...

    Champions League 2022/2023

    Bayern had a chance. With Nagelsmann they had conceded 2 goals the entire campaign (Vs Plzen with a rotated lineup!) They then sacked him and hired a new manager who had 2 weeks to implement his tactics until a do or die CL match against the best team in the world. Tuchel will probably be...

    8 - Pedri

    So some Barca twitter account that has a couple sources from time to time posted a couple weeks ago that Pedri had a complete muscular tear and not just an injury. He says that on the MRI there was apparently a small shadow. There is a solid chance he doesn't play again this season or plays...

    Quique Setien

    That's the thing though - making a team that wins most games in the league is much easier than making a team that wins most games in the league "the right way." It takes time and frustration to get a team winning playing great football and on possession principles. But whenever I watch...

    Xavi Hernández

    Last season with Xavi we were playing much better and more entertaining football than this. I remember 3-0 vs Valencia, 4-0 vs Bilbao, 4-0 vs Madrid, 4-0 vs Osasuna etc. We conceded more but scored way way more and were taking a lot more risks. Now this season we seem to have sacrificed quality...

    Xavi Hernández

    It could be better if we had a dedicated director to make transfers instead of Xavi. Ferran and Raphinha look totally out of place in this team, but he hand picked them and spent 120m on them. Maybe if we spent that on profiles that fit the team our team wouldn't look so talentless. They were...

    Xavi Hernández

    Well, it is nothing new. That is how most of the games have been to watch this year except with 1-0 instead of 0-0. We play a very English style of football, we genuinely wouldn't look out of place in the EPL. It is very intensity and physicality based and our greatest strength is our...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Have we actually dropped points without him in the team? I don't think so. I am seriously worried about this signing going forward. Looks finished and like he's lost a yard or several of pace and quick thinking.. He also isn't near as good as he used to be for Poland either. Their fans...

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    Yep. It also says something that the winners of the last 3 LaLigas (Atletico, Madrid, Barca) had by far the best keeper in the league that season for their wins each time (Oblak, Courtois, Stegen). Having the best defense seems to win you the league as opposed to the best attack. Attackers in...

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    We really have to be seeing more than this in terms of quality of football at this point. Raphinia and Lewandowski maybe are not the best in the world but they can look better than this that's for sure.

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    Our defense is good for LaLiga. We have a lot of fast and strong players and we press aggressively so average Liga attackers find it hard to retain the ball in the final third. Its clear to see why we have issues against talented attackers in Europe though who can deal with that type of thing...

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    Commentator just said this is Girona's first clean sheet away from home in the entire season.

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    Reality is we have been watching this for most of this season. The only difference would be we scored a goal and made it 1-0.

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    Ferran is actually pretty fast. Seems to be an idea he is slow because he can't dribble past players. They are two different but linked skills. Think he clocks like 33/34kmh at top speed which is fast enough for any winger..

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    Ferran can be a good winger. His skills are fine, he's fast, decent frame, just has some serious mental blocks he has to get over. Stuck in his own head.

    La Liga Round 28: FC Barcrelona - Girona 0-0

    Its at the point where you could give any team except Madrid in LaLiga an open goal against us and I would bet on them to miss.
