CL Round 1: Monaco - Barca 2-1

[Porque]

That's a horrible squad, especially when you consider where most of most of those guys were at just a year back.

Testament to Flick aswell that fans and players alike can go into a CL away game thinking we can win with that squad.

Xavi had a stronger bench when he played Benfica in 2021 by comparison.

Yeah, almost half the squad is around Barca atletic level. Flick works on absolute hardmode with 8 injured first team players.

FC Barcelona players will play tomorrow in a new 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙧𝙙 𝙟𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙮𝙨 against AS Monaco in the Champions League competition.


BAD NEWS THAT IS!

 

[Barcaman]

Ansitouuuuu

Let's hope this is the lowest point in terms of availability of players.

True. If we manage to beat a big team with so many injuries... Flick's role is no doubt crucial.

Let's hope we don't get embarrassed like Xavi did in Europa League.

Wanna see Ansu coming on in the 2nd half and play 15-20 min at least

So happy that he is back, and that is under a proper coach that can re-invent him

Let's hope we make at least QF in CL like Xavi did last season.

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

think 2-1 win

After few years. No worries.

Let's also hope never again to play worst football in decades like we did under Xavi.

Cuenca? Wow, didn't see it coming. Heard good stuff about this boy. Delighted to see Guille and Toni as well, hope they make their debut together would suck if one came in and other not lol

Yup, very mature - good decision making, calm and bloody amazing passing.

 

[Don Juan Laporta Estruch]

Olmo is a massive miss. Let's not forget we were struggling against little Rayo before he came on.

Would very much be happy with a point here and go in for all 3 against The Yellow Submarine.

Saw the UCL winning odds and surprisingly we are 4th favourites, so the bookies are expecting a stellar campaign from us.

 

[MontenegrinCuler]

I wouldn't be happy with anything less than a win, but however this game turns out Flick surely deserves forgiveness. Really poor squad he's facing Monaco with, it's an away game against in-form highly motivated team.

 

[serghei]

Bet on us. 3 goals for sure. I go for a 3-1. It's fecking Farmers League. The boss of that league barely beat Girona through a keeper blunder. Flick is cooking and those French baguettes can't stop it.
