All three ex Barca players are playing much better than they were here ... in a faster supposedly harder league !!

Oh and under a decent manager !!

Bladdy Gomez is currently bossing the Merseyside derby match and running the whole midfield !!

Go figure !!

Everyone should be worried about how most players seem to be regressing under him.

Sorry, but when that's the case it's not about individual players anymore, it's about the manager.

Also every player that's left us is starting and playing really well !!!

One common factor ~ Valverde

1+ for giving Alena time but -1 for taking Vidal off when Zombie Rakitic is still on the pitch
1+ for taking Coutinho off for Malcom BUT -0.5 it was way too late in the game

i actually enjoyed that match, not sure if its because Ernie has reduced me to this but Dembele was great to watch, shades of a young Neymar

i don't buy the whole 'our players are average', the problem is EV and public hanging should be reinstated if we lose Dembele and Malcom this summer

Guys, guys we have worse players than Villareal that's why we played this way. Bunch of armchair pundits everyone of you.

Same old lineup interrupted by injuries- Check

Busi and Raki playing shit yet again still Vidal subbed- Check

Vidal snubbing Valgreen and the crowd booing the sub- Check

Alena proving Valmierda wrong yet again to be rewarded with more bench time- Check

Same shit on a stick football rescued by an opposition blunder- Check

Defending a 1-0 lead against the mighty Villareal- Check

Still no idea what subs are- Check

Coutinho a ghost on the wing but will be stuck there regardless cos there's no such thing as tactics- Check

Malcom rewarded with 10 mins of playing time even with so many injuries- Check

Static team plus slow passing making Barca fans bored and opposition players happy- Check

I agree but the Coutinho thing, maybe hes being pressured by higher ups to start Coutinho? our most expensive signing and in all honesty he should be benched right now

Or he cud be played in MF. Raki and Busi aren't exactly lighting the world on fire.

De Jong-Arthur-Coutinho is a tasty looking MF. But if Fraudverde and his biggest disciple BBZ had their way we'd have Busi-Raki-Rabiot, the MF which will kill elite teams...with laughter.
