I wonder how long and how closely some people who are bearish the whole time on here have been following Barca. Even in our heyday (2008 to 2011) we had some nightmarish games in both the league and Europe (especially away from home) I will just limit myself to European games of yesteryear for...

He should have passed it to Neymar but yes, a striker going for the kill is nothing strange or even bad in football. These things happen all the time. He missed the chance partly because the Ajax keeper reacted well, and partly because he did not manage to put as much curl/spin on the ball as he...

Not really. He was warming the bench most of the time and that is why he was let go and no team in Spain or Europe for that matter tried to take him on.

The red card was not shown at minute 46' you know. And the Ajax player got red-carded because he made a mistake under our pressure. We also missed a couple of sitter before the sending off (Alba and Suarez) But what the hell, let's keep the whining going. They had us trembling for 5 to 7...

We were actually very good in the second half. Rush decision making in the final third spoiled a greater victory. Suarez is still rusty and lacks confidence. We will improve with time. Some (most) people on this forum must be more patient.

I know Pique is a bit crap, but is Bartra any better? And I want Masche at DM not CB. I would play Pique and Bartra at the back with Masche in midfield. Busquets on the bench.

After two straight losses, one deserved and the other not, this is a must win game for the team. Away at Ajax won't be easy (PSG could not win there) but if we show intensity throughout the game and our forwards stop smashing the woodwork and the keeper's hands we should come out on top. It...

People pointing out that goals are not everything are absolutely right. BUT! I still want Messi to break the record. It would be great for him to do it before Penaldo-Divenaldo does it and this is a golden opportunity. I won't complain if he provides a couple of assists for Neymar and Suarez...

"He wanted to come to England, he could have stayed in Barcelona" :lol: No mate, Barcelona got rid of him.

Quite shitty games tonight. Atletico had some serious trouble against the Swedish team who deserved more. Plus, Juventus with a more than precious comeback.

Was utter piss tonight. Madrid's worst player by far. Seemed extremely tired to be fair though. Carlo should be resting him sometimes. Marcelo was MVP for my money, then Varane and then Benzema.

I agree that Douglas is a bit shit, but we have to be able to win a few matches even with Douglas. That being said, the game being an absolute must-win and away from home, Alves should be starting.

We can only wish that the PSG players who missed out the first game will play this time round. Ibra is so slow that even Pique will be able to deal with him and the hype over T.Silva has been unjustified for ages and especially now.

Our last game vs Celta was the worst in term of luck since the first semi against Chelsea back in 2012. We create chances, hit the woodwork several times and completely dominate the game, while the opposing team scores with their sole chance of 90 minutes. Absolutely rotten luck we had on...

Villarreal were very unlucky against both Sevilla and Valencia. In both games they had the better chances but ended up losing. Valencia basically scored both of the chances they created (from set-pieces) and the other one was an own goal. Villarreal on the other hand missed 4 or 5 good chances.

If so many of you are certain that we will not win tomorrow, then you can make a shitload of money out of it. We are 1.39 to win on Wednesday. Which basically means that if you bet 1000 euros against Barca, you will only have to pay out 390 in the highly unlikely scenario that they win. If they...

Mathieu is out mate.

Not a very great deal going on. One or two good chances for Aguero though.

I tend to agree. Lots of hype, little good football from him.

In fact we had both of those player together for three years and they manifestly failed to deliver. Their only good games came against rather weak opposition. I am not saying they are not good players but unfortunately they proved wholly unsuitable for us. Alexis goalscoring (or rather the...
