Only 3 shots on goal. Definitely out of sync offensively. Ajax is in top form though. Gotta get that 2nd goal to break open the game.

Lucky goal. We're not playing well, all the problems are still there. Not even a bit of improvement... It's going to be a long season.

And yet we are leading.

We dominated last week and lost.

Funny how it works.

Dominated what? The team was a mess against celta, and is a mess again today. Ajax could have scored 2, we were lucky they didn't. we're not playing well, players look lost yet again.

We miss Iniesta a lot. He was the connexion between the midfield and the attack.
Suarez needs to create by dropping in the midfield, like Leo tried to do.

The problem is that we have no control in midfield. Xavi is just not good enough and the real Iniesta is missing. Concerning Rakitic, he can't hold and protect the ball in midfield more than 3 secondes, then make a pass to erase Ajax defensive lines.

We were lucky not to concede, but it was good defending from Bartra and Jefecito. Alves and Alba really really poor.


I don't think that Suarez touched more than 3 balls in an offensive position.

Barca may have struggled but 4 shots hit the post. FOUR!!!!

So far nothing from Suarez

Completely out of sync. I think he doesn't want to hurt the dynamics of Messi/Neymar, and playing tentatively rather than instinctively hurts you, and thus hurts the team.

I don't think we can judge the trio until another 5-10 games once they get used to one another.

Remember, it took Messi and Neymar until this year to get their partnership going.

The team struggles to create. Since the beginning of the season. Suarez is a finisher, he's not getting balls to finish. The team is disjointed, really badly set up.

Look there are different typ of strikers:

Suarez, Falcao , Costa Need to be infront of the Goal , they are finishers

the other Group like Benzema, Lewandowski for example are good at playmaking


And Suarez is clearly playing now Playmaker , which he cant do that well
