Copa | Round 16: Athletic Bilbao - FC Barcelona 2-3

[fergus90]

We are winning this.

 

[Gnidrologist]

Pedri, Gavi and Fati playing together would be like two magnitudes of upgrade after what we had until yet so don't write off Xavi yet.

 

[BarcaOG]

ive a bad feeling about this one

 

[JerseyAddict]

Actually his stamina is the most impressive part of him. He seems to have decent level even after playing a billion games. not that his "level" is amazing, but he is consistent.

Probably why coaches like him. Same was with Rakitic. Same diesel motor running every game, yet very uninspiring to watch..

ive a bad feeling about this one

It is not an rare occasion with Bar?a this season

 

[Birdy]

Lineup Prediction:
3-5-2

-------------MATS
-----Araujo-Pique-Lengl--
Demb/Abde----Busi-----------Alba
---------gavi--------Pedri---
-----------Ferran -Ansu

9 spots are guaranteed, 2 pending
Xavi wants to start Dembele. If the board decides to punish him, Abde or Alves start at RWB
Then at the back 3, Lenglet can start or Alves as RCB, or we might see Frenkie there (I hope)

 

[JamDav1982]

Xavi is not switching to 352.

Will be Fati Torres Dembele front line if all fit/available. Then Busi Gavi Pedri midfield.

 

[fergus90]

I’m guessing…

Stegen
Alves Pique Araujo Alba
Pedri Busi Gavi
Ferran Ansu Dembele

 

[serghei]

We need to try everything and win this, even though we got a really bad draw. Copa is a big objective.

 

[Andresito]

Ansu won't start tonight. Dembele probably won't even be in the squad.

 

[Andresito]

Memphis and Dembouz OUT

 

[gregorrin10]

Why no Depay? I thought he was fit. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad. Hopefully this means we're close to selling him...

 

[behindbrowneyes]

Memphis has discomfort and trained individually.

 

[MTL_Barca]

Memphis and Dembouz OUT

Folks in Bilbao shitting their pants seeing that image. Who cares about Dembele when we are about to unleash the BEAST Braithwaite.

 

[Porque]

I look at squad. I see "6 - Riqui Puig". I know there is still hope for humanity.

Mouth-watering frontline. Braithwaite also ready to be unleashed from the bench.

Bilbao won't know what hit them.

Hopefully Neto doesn't start. Absolutely no point since we're trying to get rid of him. Not to mention we haven't had a game in over a week.
