It's a balance problem. I'd like to see Xavi and Rafinha together, not sure we had this pairing too often. But well, Xavi + Rakitic / Iniesta is simply a lot better.
Thank God we had Pique, Mathieu and Busquets. Otherwise it could have been ugly.
Still, a very sweet victory. Madrid winning 9-1 and then us getting a scrappy 1-0 win like that is awesome.
:lol: haters gonna hate I guess.
Just imagine how much we'd control the midfield if we signed Pogba :lol:
If this half tells you something, it's that we desperately NEED Gündogan or Koke.
At least Busquets was solid and created two good counter attack situations after he won the ball.
Same as always. But it was unusual for Pep to willingly concede possession like that. Wish they'd do the same against Madrid or similar counter attacking teams.
