Copa del Rei: FC Barcelona - Villanovense 6-1

[Kikan]

What ? No copa No treble, we're not madrid, we don't need to give up on tournaments to win others.

lol , we will win for sure even with half of our regular team , but i agree it would be really fun with Madrid getting nothing another year .

I'm in the same boat about Neymar and Suarez. Give them rest. I think Munir-Sandro and Messi can finish them. I dont want to risk losing this game though. IT would be big disappointment.

I just hope we don't underestimate the opponents too much and lose the tie.

Indeed, that's why I wrote "who will play from the first team".

Play Messi for a bit. if nothing else, it'll drastically improve the chances that Sandro or Munir score. Pretty much rest everyone else.

Guess Masip will play.

 

[Barcaman]

Masip deserves it.
Is it true Messi didn't train today?

 

[Frejsgodes]

Rest the entire team . Copa del Rey is not important .

Maybe not to you, but the club and the players dont agree with you.

No Copa, no Treble. And unless we win both the league and CL, then no Double.

Is it true Messi didn't train today?

Messi probably skiped training, but plays 90min tonight

 

[Kuchi]

Sandro, Munir, Lord Douglas, Bartra, Verm, Adriano, Samper, please. They should be able to bring it home. Hell, the stadium alone should bring this home.

Hell, our bench won't be able to physically support all the skill on it, imagine a bench composed of MSN, Don Andres, Busi, Bravo, Alba, Pique.

Game day

 

[raskolnikov]

I wont mind Messi playing 60 minutes just to get more rhythm.
Dont like the 0-0 result, not to be paranoid or anything but leading 2-0 ore more at ht would be best.

 

[Deco 20]

FC Barcelona 5 -0 Villanovense
Messi x2, Suarez, Neymar, Roberto

 

[Jamie Cal]

"Official: 16 players called up for Villanovense game, Pique, Alba, Busquets, Rakitic and Messi not included, B-players Samper, Gumbau, Aitor"

"[1/2] Squad (vs Villanovense): Bravo, Masip, Alves, Bartra, Mascherano, Vermaelen, Mathieu, Adriano, Samper #fcblive"
"[2/2] Squad (vs Villanovense): Gumbau, Iniesta, Munir, Sandro, Suarez, Neymar, Aitor #fcblive"



So no Messi, but there's no rush. December's a relatively quiet month, should be good for Leo to get up to full strength for when January rolls around.

 

[BigBarcaBoy]

Here is the full list: Claudio Bravo, Jordi Masip, Daniel Alves, Andrés Iniesta, Luis Suárez, Neymar Jr., Javier Mascherano, Marc Bartra, Munir El Haddadi, Sandro Ramírez, Adriano Correia, Thomas Vermaelen, Jérémy Mathieu, Sergi Samper (26), Gerard Gumbau (28) and Aitor Cantalapiedra (33).

Wonder if Neymar or Suarez will start...maybe after HT

 

[Barcaman]

Rafinha, Roberto out. Busquets, Rakitic not called up.

Gumbau,Samper,Iniesta?
