CL Quarter Final: PSG - Barca 2-3

After this tie Dembele will regret that he left Barca

Something tells me that LE won't start Dembele but will use him as super sub. PSG scored the most goals of this season (6) last weekend without Dembouz. Maybe LE try this again and plans to bring Dembele after 60min when legs are a bit tired

What’s your verdict on PSG Barca?

PSG have attack that our defense might not be able to deal with, and are FAR better coached by Enrique this season compared to Barca

I gave PSG 70% Barca 30% on my predictions on CL thread.

But, as I have said many times, in a knock-out tie anything can happen, like it happened last week with Inter and Pathetico.
So, some luck in crucial moments can give us an unexpected qualification

I’m surprised you’re such an Enrique fan. Or is that relative to Xavi?

 

[Horatio]

More I think about it more I like us as going through. PSG likely has worst defense we’re facing aside from mid-bottom liga and the eastern european countries we faced in CL groups stage.

Or am I missing something?

He had a problem with one of his ear. Yersteday, Deschamp even asking - are your ears still hurting? During the Nt french gathering.
In all big match LE made him start

You think we should bother pressing them high and risk getting Mbappe in our asses? Or have a calmer, steadier approach?
We devoured Napoli with our press at times but I think PSG is a different beast.

Anyone know if the Camp Nou Botiga is still operational during construction or have they relocated temporarily someplace in the city?

I think we should be offensive. Under Xavi, we have played our best:

1. Against open/attack oriented teams with a high like
2. big teams

Nah, remember what happened when Xavi played a dumb high line against Madrid in the final? Game was finished within 10 minutes.


A high line against Mbappe is suicide.


Barca should play a mid block and focus on building up patiently. Off the ball there has to be a plan of double teaming Mbappe as soon as he gets the ball.

A high line against Mbappe is the ticket for cl exit

Sampaoli tried it and failed badly in 2018... @soul24rage

The official store is still open.

Our pressing is too slow and desynced to play a high line against Qatar's speed. It would be the same shit as the last clasico. Slower pace with the ball, try to bait them into press and when they open, play long balls should be the safer approach here. First leg is in Paris, so let them take the initiative.

Come on! Our style of play needs to be supersexY. 😜😁 I’d rather us go out swinging than sit back, for with the exception of Mbappe, PSG isn’t better than us (as far as individual talent goes).

Edit. Of course we shouldn’t give Mbappe too much space. Just saying that statistically speaking, we have played well against teams that are open. This usually suits us in contrast to playing defensive bus parking teams.
