Copa Quarter Final: Valencia - Barca 0-5

[Andresito]

Dani Olmo is doing part of the work with the group. He'll be ready for the Valencia game. Gavi is training inside the gym, for precautionary measures. @victor_nahe

Surely Fermin starts at AM. Frenkie-Pedri at CM would be my guess.

 

[te amo barca]

Start Gerard Martin. I wanna see him ball out

Since we are not winning either LL or CL with such a flimsy depth upfront,
Copa is the most important target left.

I would start strongest XI
We can finish the season with 2 titles, Copa and SuperCopa

Believe!!.

It's a slim chance but we are winning one of the two.

I am a committed realist enough to not have false expectations.

I don't think we can eliminate any of Liverpool, Arsenal, Inter (just to say the top3) in a double-legged tie with only 2 proper players for 3 positions up top.
We are still at the beginning of the Hansi era, and I think he will win us the CL again, but not this season.
This is the hard truth.

In LL, there are no teams that we can't win against. We can humiliate all of them.
But, again, with no depth, I don't see us making the 10 or 15 wins in a row needed to clinch it.

Hansi has truly overachieved so far and brought me (and many others) back the joy of watching Barca play.
But he has not been backed so far by the board.
There is this much any coach in the world can do

Give him an Isak type of CF, a Diaz type of LW, some serious RB-LB with attacking qualities to cover, possibly another GK,
and the guy can really cook hard

It's true though. I think the squad is too thin to challenge for all trophies. If I would lose something it would be Copa. LaLiga is trickier because we are behind few points.

 

[Andresito]

Gavi is out of tomorrow's game. It's not serious, they are just following protocol after a heavy hit to the head.

What are you guys talking about. The 19.2 game isn't even in barca's calendar on the homepage.

Flick will run his players into the ground unless he starts some serious rotations.

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

Think this time Valencia will park the bus, they are not stupid to playing again relative open and to concede 7 goals. Will be a tough match.

Ah ok would make sense why its only 2 days later after our match, good job Loki 🫡

Pedri, Araujo and Lewy will start on bench. Same XI as league game which means Eric, Frenkie, Fermin and Ferran start.

Naive? Or smart from Flick?

'Never change a winning team' 😁

 

[MonteCuler]

Why naive? Lewy on the bench instantly makes us better, same with Araujo. Pedri probably needs some rest, he's playing every single game.
