If someone told me last season that next Clasico we'll be playing without Neymar and with Paulinho and Vermaelen... :lol:

Or Barca would go away to Real Madrid with Verm in the defence with S.Roberto at RB after all those errors last season . Then throw in a midfield of an ageing Iniesta with Paulhino AND Rakitic !!!

It doesn't look good in my view .

Their bench includes Bale , Isco and Ascensio who'd all walk into our team :(

Aaaand it's 4-4-2 diamond.

Paulinho starts, Semedo doesn't.

Why the fuck isn't Semedo starting?!!!

Roberto and Rakitic is one slow ass flank. If there is any space Marcelo will just bomb forward with Ronaldo to cause chaos.

Honestly Ernesto Valverde makes my blood boil. I can easily see a repeat of the Super cup here.

Jeez.

I know it's the truth, but not right before the game man.

Was a bit optimistic but now i'm worried.

Roberto isn't slow. Rakitic is!
Rakitic must perform the way he used to do when Alves played for us... Otherwise, Ronaldo-Marcelo combination will cause lots of problems and will probably take an advantage from it as well...

fuck, seems like messi will be double marked by kovasic & casemiro, to be completely fair kovasic really managed to mark him well in the supercopa, let's hope this time wll be a different.

What does Valverde love so much about Rakitic?

Roberto should b3 playing as a right mid/ winger with Semedo behind him.

I bet Valverde will make the change during the match.

Hope that the game goes our way and we are not behind at some point ... there is no name on the bench who can make some positive impact in attack ...
