The few minutes he's played this season, he's been mostly disasterous, sadly. As I wrote a while ago, he ended last season badly as well, and he's carried that horrible, error prone form into the the new season under Sarri. His confidence is shot, and it shows, but I'm afraid his trouble lies...

What a pathetic shit-show of a match. I can't decide who I want to hurl most shit at: EV for proving time and time again that he's not able to fix our defense and horrible susceptibility to counters, or the vast majority of the players playing like utter dogshit. Fucking pathetic all around.

Jesus Christ, man. It must've been a premature lineup, I caught on Twitter. Well, shit...

Just Sergi R. being rotated? Disappointing.

Yeah, they're so good that they're currently placed 15th, 3 points from relegation with 8 goals scored in 12 games. No need to get your panties all tangled up just because I call that a lower tier team.

Yeah, same here. On the other hand, this could also easily be one of those naff matches against a lower tier team, where we've disappointed quite a few times this season. It seems like EV has better success at setting up the team against big opponents this season.

Other than the obvious hope for a resounding win, a couple of rotations and the usual pretty decent football we've come to expect of late, here's hoping that we tear Pau Lopez a new one. A late Pique goal on him to secure a big win would be the icing on the cake.

Yeah, I agree with that.

Not that I necessarily disagree with your Icardi assessment, but who would you have us go for - aside from watching Richarlison's progression of course - as a possible Suarez replacement this summer? Because even though it'd be a monumental downgrade, I honestly don't see many better options...

You didn't read the last paragraph, did you? Not that our play is in near as bad a state as you'd have it of course.

Holy shit, that Bayern goal was a thing of pure beauty! Shame now that Dortmund looked like putting up a fight.

According to the Forza app AM haven't even had a shot yet. Can't say that I'm weeping for them - or Griezmann in particular. That greasy little bastard.

No doubt. Barça fans in here just love to praise RM business in order to shit on our own board, coach and players, though.

I don't think you will find anyone out there disagreeing with the fact that EV (and the players) flopped hard against Roma. About our squad, sure it's among the best, but probably not the best - however you're going to measure that. We should absolutely be in contention though, just like we...

Honestly, the place where I've seen most people overrating the new, young Spanish RM signings is right here on the Barcaforum. Not by the few RM supporters, though, but by Barça fans. Most madridistas seem to have a more reasonable outlook.

That's too harsh. A good showing in the deep end of the knockout phase should be the measuring stick as I see it. It's such a volatile competition hugely influenced by luck, that accepting a win as the sole measure of success would be highly unreasonable. The days of us having the best squad in...

I definately wouldn't mind someone like Richarlison (from what little I've seen of him, he looks like a quality striker in the making), but I think you underestimate how expensive a young guy tearing it up in the EPL will be. If he continues like this, the EPL top will be all over him come...

Just read this from a Benfica fan on Reddit re Grimaldo:

Who are bootlicking here?

We'll see.
