CL Round of 16: Napoli - Barca 1-1

[Andresito]

Big game tonight. Been a while since we were in a CL knockout

Not a fan of these senyera kits tho

Xavi bitch one trick pony .. fearing shame with 4 center backs .. hold the ball and pray not to concede .. knowing well that a 16 years old is all that stands between him and defeat

Good XI. Hoping for Araujo CB, not RB

Osimhen starting.

Hope Kounde has the game of his life.

Shameful lineup ... zero risk ... all it takes is conceding one goal and that is it ... only two attacking players .. one is grampa and the other is 16

Who did you expect?

If this was Pep and not Xavi .. you would see something surprising as Cancelo plays in LW and Araujo or Chris in LB just to shake things a bit .. Obviously this isn't the case today

Lineup is a typical CL away lineup.

Pep away against fuckin Stutters in 09/10.

Just a random game I picked up of his as I recall his conservatism away in Europe.

Would be hilarious if Xavi has Araujo at RB while Osinheim causes havoc down the middle. Or even better, Kvara moves to our left to exploit Cancelo's space but Araujo still stays at RB until minute 75. Rashford deja Vu.

Anyways, Andresito made a good point. We haven't been here for 3 years. So I'm just going to kick back and enjoy the drubbing.

Who did you expect?

How about three attackers instead of 4 mids?

I'm glad Xavi decided against Cubarsi. Although in bad form, Kounde is still the better choice imo, but we'll see tonight.

I haven't liked the Inigo-Cubarsi pairing so far. But early days.

Pretty much looking forward to the game. Counting down minutes.
