CL Quarter Finals: Roma - Barca (4-4 agg.)

[CatalinR10]

No Paulinho again.

Seems Valverde has finally dropped the fetish.

id rather see paulinho start and busquets getting rest.

 

[jairzinho]

Solid starting lineup.

Someone pointed out that we've conceded just 3. That's pretty damn impressive.

Dembele will come on in the 2nd half to run at them once they tire.

 

[Devils]

Damn, I feel it. EV masterclass coming today, folks.

 

[jairzinho]

Not too worried.

Just hope we finish the game injury free with that cunt Naingoolan on the field.

 

[ATLBarcaFan]

Think I'm faster than 3/4 of the midfield and I'm 51, man we could use some speed.

 

[jairzinho]

^ THIS.

We're very quick on either flank with Semedo and Alba.

Through the middle, we're slow as hell with Busi and Raki.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

Umtiti. What the h3ll are you doing?!?! Sleeping and giving Rome a chance.

 

[Kuchi]

Lol..watch roma score again before the 30th min mark nd than drama mode on...

Their pressing is great..they might actually pull it off if they score one more before they lose stamina..

 

[AndreC]

This team is deadly tired.

 

[Kuchi]

Same pathetic ucl away display..waiting for own goal or his pall..monumental fuck up to save our asses..

Easily 2 other major chances for rome aftter the goal..

 

[ThwiX]

We are never ever winning the CL playing like this. Deserve to be a couple of goals down already. Roma absolutely dominating us. Freaking Roma. Really getting to see the worst of Valverde’s Barca tonight. After he ran this team to the ground overplaying our starters throughout the whole season.

Edit; Big chances after another for Roma. Unacceptable.

 

[mesiesta]

Honestly, do we train going out from opponent's pressing at all?? What is this?

 

[raskolnikov]

The writing was on the wall for a while. Valverde makes the same mistake game after game playing the same players thinking barca is bilbao.
If we even get to the semi’s we would be exposed badly.

 

[malvolio]

Atrocious display from us in the first half. Thought I wouldn't get to say this ever again, but Paulinho should be given a chance, at least to do some pressing.

PS: fazio and jesus both booked, I feel a red card is incoming

 

[AndreC]

All of our players are clearly tired, but iniesta and alba are dead tired.
