Leo..

 

[knicks]

ncnnc..what a mistake,he didn't pass to Villa in an perfect action when Pedro and Villa was alonee

 

[Alissa]

How on earth was his goal offside? Did I miss something? :icon_confused:

Handball, I think.

 

[Trequartista]

he was well in providing the attack with passes but god,Horrible finishing
People forget sometimes that he is still human

 

[Jesse1509]

He was a bit too selfish too, at times. Oh well...he's human..

 

[gingerless]

horrible finishing? bit harsh?
he missed by inches and hit a bunch of defenders most of the time he was shooting... should have made a pass but i could see it being difficult as he tried to but with 4-5 players around you it's hard to get the ball anywhere

 

[Cal-FCB]

Overall pretty poor from Leo tonight I think. He missed chanes he'd normally gobble up, and he looked lazy at times quite honestly. Obviously he was given very little space but we really missed his movement in the 2nd half. We'll need him to turn it on in the 2nd leg, like last time.

 

[Aryagorn]

You don't just stop playing midway, you are not hailed the best player for that! No wonder our defense collapsed once the first line of defense just stopped playing!!

Seriously I don't understand why he isn't getting the stick for that... There was even this incident where he strayed offside and was walking his way past while the entire mid field was trying to create a chance. And once they did do it and went for the final pass, where was he!? Damn right he was still offside


Really good first half, and was cruelly unlucky to get his goal cancelled

 

[gingerless]

he was unusually lazy, to be fair though he doesn't get much rest and like someone before said he rests during the game sometimes lol

 

[Sergio]

Yep, worse than lazy - burned out.

 

[Barcaman]

He'll get back to his usual self soon. He can't score or make a goal each time he plays.

 

[Valon]

Well he did make the Villa goal. I guess his finishing was just bad tonight plus I believe his goal was wrongly disallowed but these things happen.

It's not about him scoring or not, it's about his pathetic overall effort in the second half. I do realize that he might be tired but he should at least let Guardiola know about that because when Arsenal had the ball we were basically playing with 10 players not 11. Pedro played one of his worst matches in a long time but I still admire his overall work in that game, unlike Messi. I hope he scores against Athletic and gets subbed off at half time.
