Suarez

Added also Valencia and Sevilla to complete most probably top 5 candidates. Interesting to see how completely different both teams look this season. Sevilla has suddenly turned into defensive stronghold, while Valencia is ripping teams apart in attack. Interesting to see that Sevilla is actually...

Really, did our coach complain about that over pint of beer? I am pretty sure Rakitic is not forcing anyone to play anywhere. There are clear reasons both Roberto and Semedo have had their chances and saying Semedo has been excellent is not true. He is promising RB, who has had good games and...

I have absolutely no idea why people whine about his minutes at this stage of campaign. We are doing fine in all competitions, we have really solid players who share time between them in RB position, which means we should have relatively fresh players there in spring and as both have had enough...

Well let's put it this way, if we had exactly same schedule last season and games ended as they did, then yes, we would be at this stage. Same points, less goals scored but also less conceded.

Have been on vacation for 2 weeks, but will keep this updated from now on. Updated with 2 last rounds for all 3 squads in first post.

We have really never used B players in CL group stages unless we have qualified. Don't expect anything bar our best lineup in return leg as well. We may see rotations in Copa and last group stage game. Or maybe if we secure spot already vs Sporting at home.

Paulinho Iniesta Messi

Pique

I hope he is. Would not mind treble in first season and double on second.

Rakitic

Umtiti Ter Stegen Suarez

Think he did fine. His finishing was still poor, but he was heavily involved all game and made some great runs. Looks to be getting into better shape physically as well.

Wasn't really home game considering circumstances. I think it was really decent game, must have felt like training match.

Busi Masch Denis S.

Vidal

Bad game by Messi, not that he did not try, but just nothing really worked out, lost ball too often as well.

Umtiti Semedo Busquets

Rakitic, he is getting worse every game

win is a win, nothing to be too proud of, but at least we win away games now, compared to last season.
