CL quarters: Barca - PSG 2-0 (5-1 agg.)

[EdmondDantes]

It's no formality with the players they have, they are one of the strongest teams in Europe and have been doing well in the CL for the past 3 seasons. I sense we'll edge them, but it's gonna be a tough tie.

I don't doubt it will be tough but if we turn it on like we are capable of , theres only one winner here.

 

[linetty]

So... What do we do so our midfield isn't shit? Because MSN won't bail us out every time without at least a remotely solid midfield behind them. Should we play with 4 in the middle? Suarez is useless most of the time any way.

 

[Neymessi]

Iniesta usually plays well against PSG,lets hope he finds his form here.

If there's something positive after last night's game :


- Neymar regained his form

- we have no important injured players

- we are still on the 1'st spot

- lucho will probably learn not to fuck up next games

- we go to face PSG with them having vital players missing

 

[serghei]

I highly doubt no.4 on that list will happen.

 

[Egert]

I highly doubt no.4 on that list will happen.

He learned from his mistakes vs Sociedad, so there is still hope I trust him, I hope he won't let me down.

 

[Gasgas]

I agree with Mido
Ter stegen
Allves pique. Mathieu. Alba
Mascherano
Busquets
Xavi
Messi. Suarez. Neymar

Bench all underperformers in midfield who says we must play 4-3-3
We even won a classic after busquets came to help masche stabilze the midfield

 

[Egert]

Masche-Busi should be in midfield in big matches. That's how it should be, Iniesta has been crap for the whole season and Raki has also been crap in last games.

 

[Mido]

Quite frankly, I don't blame Enrique at all for the draw. I had the feeling that Sevilla was above us mentally. Neymar hardly defends.

Let's not forgert that Sevilla made us pay two mistakes we made.

I am quite confident that the team will show a new face against Paris.

 

[cris29]

Perhaps we can push Busquets to the middle and Masch as DM? It would offer some creative spark atleast, but it would be huge risk to gamble with it in a CL quarter final. Sad that our midfield decisions are basically "the least worst case".

Alves is suspended right? I don't want Adriano, as i dont trust his positioning versus pacey players.

 

[Mido]

If Enrique got some guts :

[formation=barca,6]
Ter Stegn
Piqué-0-0-Mascherano-0-0-Mathieu
0-0-0-0-0-0-0
0-0-0-Busquets-0-0-0
0-Rakitic-0-0-0-0-Xavi-0
0-0-0-Iniesta-0-0-0
Messi-0-0-0-0-0-Neymar
0-0-0-Suarez-0-0-0
[/formation]

Xavi + Iniesta = creativity

Rakitic + Busquets = security

 

[Ini8]

No need to play three at the back in a difficult away game, even though they are missing many of their starters.

 

[Barcaman]

Bertus, if you were a PSG president, would you accept Neymar in exchange for Verratti+Marquinhos?
Not gonna happen, but just curious to hear a PSG fan and his view.
