What is the greater point in this discussion? If you think Madrid's 3-peat was not plastered with memorable or spectacular football, you'll end up arguing that only about 3 teams in CL history were ever memorable. Bayern, Chelsea, Inter, United, Milan, Liverpool, Porto. None of those teams...

Expected more from Real, seems like they don't have another gear. Complete no show in the 2nd half from them, except towards the end. Messi and Dembélé back in the starting lineup and it's lights out for them in the Bernabeu.

160 million is no joke and Barca won't recoup half of that. However, wait until you discover De Jong's true level next season.

Apart from the miss, good game.

2/3s of our attack is missing, Malcom is a player with almost no minutes, Coutinho is sulking and Madrid's form curve is rising, they'll also want to make the 1-5 forgotten. I see no positive outcome here for Barca but I'm glad for others that the positivity of Roberto not starting outweighs...

Benzema is in good form and he does well in Clasicos anyway so expect a very busy Pique thread post match.

Usually when the pre-game comments about the lineup are positive, we get wrecked. The only league game in which Malcom started this season, we also got wrecked. 3-1 for Madrid IMO. :lucho:

How is their legendary coach doing these days, haven't kept up with Chelsea in a while. Someone? You maybe?

People bashing him because he is often clumsy. The assist to Coutinho, the run he made from inside his own box after Sevilla's corner right until his goal, the awareness for Messi's miss as well as the 6th goal. He is like 2 tiers above any other striker even at his age but hey, he is clumsy, so...

lol @ the pre-game comments. Forum never disppoints.

I'm not a fortune teller. I'm stating my opinions. Even in the Alexis-Dembélé case you can see that I don't make statements just to troll, I didn't claim Dembélé was crap or anything, there were far worse people here on that matter. Sanchez at his best was a class player, a very good one, just a...

I'm actually optimistic, think we will win the treble this season. There are just certain things that I can't agree with. Coutinho being a midfielder in the mould of Iniesta or De Jong being anything special.

I have never watched Arthur in Brazil so I never made judgements about him (in his highlights he resembled Xavi a lot and that was it). I've watched Frenkie.

90 million for a midfielder who stands out at nothing except a bit of dribbling and slightly above average passing in a league that is ranked 6 places below Ligue 1 and even below the Turkish and Ukrainian leagues. Well done. Let's hope Valverde leaves next summer because the heart attacks on...

Coutinho = Iniesta replacement shows a lack of basic football understanding tbh. He was nicknamed Shootinho by Premier League opposition fans for a reason, I don't remember Iniesta taking the ball 5 times per game to go on the same inside cut prime Robben curler goal attempt. Do you? He is Özil...

lol Those 85 minutes totally change the core of the message of course that Willian is a staple in Sarri's side who made more appearances for Chelsea than Rakitic did for Barca. :rolleyes:

lol Don't search for logic here. The same people also jerk off to Sarri while hating Valverde for his supposed "Willian fetish". At the same time Sarri plays Willian more than Valverde plays Rakitic.

Being smarter than you is not much of an achievement.

It's clear that 90 % of the people talking about de Jong here haven't even watched 3 consecutive Ajax games in their lives. lol

If true that he goes to PSG, Barca dodged a bullet. He's a Jean Seri level talent. 75 million + whatever dream wages. lol Barcaforum really knows how to hype up random above average passers of the ball from offensive-minded teams. Not everyone with that attribute is the second coming of Xavi.
