So the line-up many of us expected. Excited for the game. Nice to see Coutinho as CAM and Sembélé on the right.

Pretty much overplayed. Definitely one of the players who runs most and very intensively.

You'll agree that it is not that easy and very important to have the right mixture of resting players while rotating. It becomes crazy when you make changes in the line-up with 5 or 6 players like Lucho did sometimes. So you can give rest to 2-3 players every game and probably take some others...

I'm not that disappointed with the domestic double tbh. We lost last year's La Liga due to stupid rotations and I don't want that the same happens again. Of course, our lead is comfortable but I can understand why Valverde is preferring the safe way. I never really saw a chance of winning the...

https://www.sport-english.com/en/news/barca/barca-trying-to-help-dembele-complete-his-complex-landing-6644112 Read the article again. It is totally different from the one OD quoted one page before although it is the same link. Maybe an early mistranslation? Tells a different story now.

Jordi Alba is second mate. I'd still prefer to see Sergi taking over Paulinho's job and Semedo playing RB. Doubt we'll see that though since Dembélé will get his chance on the right side.

Do you think it is easy to incorporate two "new" players into the team while the calendar is busy and you rarely have time for game preparation? I'm not of the same opinion of Valverde regarding Semedo, but it is hard to criticize him for trying Coutinho on various positions or benching him...

So true. I remember many wanted Draxler after PSG destroyed Barça in Paris.

He can take a break since Vermaelen is back now. Would like to see Mina too but it's unlikely.

Where have you read that? Haven't found anything in Sport or MD.

Sevilla are so frustrating to watch in front of the goal. It was the same last year.

Everything indicates that 4-2-3-1 will be our future system as it solves more or less all of our problems. We can't play a true 4-3-3 as Messi abandons the wing all the time. So if Messi abandons the wing and plays in the middle Suárez has to go left and play out of position which makes him...

Barça want Dembélé to keep him out of media spotlight to cut him some slack as the club deems he’s too young to cope with the pressure of adjusting at new team/league & he’s already had a serious injury setback. Barça provide him a dietitian as well to take care of his food. Sorry to say, but...

It is quite easy to park a bus if you have decent, physical and tactical disciplined players like Chelsea has. A defensive minded tactician on the bench too. Even Getafe is great at bus parking and they don't have the financial sources Chelsea has. And we are talking about the current PL...

MD or Sport wrote about it a week or so ago. He used to eat lots of fastfood when his friends visited him. The club has hired someone who prepares meals for him at home in the same way they do it at the training ground. What do you expect him to say? "The situation in our squad is shit...

Perfect result. Would've taken that before the game and after it even more. Wouldn't be too worried about our game. Can't remember a really good game at the Bridge and let's not forget it's February. If you want to win CL you look to be in form in March and April. We weren't lucky with that...

Indeed. Can't look great as a #9 in that game in first half. Was great when Chelsea played more offensively.

Badass comment: Did us a favor by shooting Willan into the face. I had the feeling he'd score a second but he clearly was shocked after that.

Didn't see that. However, I'm sure we'll see him soon in action again. He'll need a month to get back in game rhythm though.
