Half time: How satisfied are you with the season?

[ajnotkeith]

3. Or 6/10.
Great in CL, wasteful in the league.

The CL performance needs to be backed up by progress in the knockouts also. If we go out early in CL and finish 2nd or 3rd in Liga the season is a failure.

 

[CatalinR10]

Fantastic in the CL

Bad in the league

Therefore ok season.

run like pigs barcazooooooo

less you're Balde, creampie, rags, etc

7.5/10

Not much to say of course, UCL
performance is above everything we could have possibly expected. League started off incredibly as well then a drop off happened but we are still in the race and could realistically make a quick comeback to the leaders position.

Taking into consideration the injuries earlier this season, the fact we are playing so many unexperienced academy players and many more this is a good season so far. I think that our form at start of the season made people a little bit disappointed about us not being at the absolute top by now, but if you take that bias aside you realize that we are not in a bad position: surely, could have been better but that's true for any season and I don't think we ever had a perfect one.

Should be mentioned we have an immense improvement in football compared not just to last season but a couple last years. Some of the players have lived through a football reborn; Raphinha, Pedri, Lamine, Casado, Peña... They have all improved and it's good for us in the long term.

Another good thing we have improved is our approach to the big games. All the big games in first half of this season we were the dominant side, even against Atletico where we lost and against Bayern, Madrid.

We need to improve the results as soon as possible but there is still potential for this to be a memorable season.

Many are saying the CL form is good which is true but it's not really that important even though I'm glad if we'll finish in the top 8. I'm sure Madrid will finish around 20 and they'll go a lot further than us.

I don't really have seperate grades for each competition, it's all one whole half season for me. Guess something like 6/10 right now.

His biggest mistake is rotation but it's hard to rotate with Segunda level bench most of the games. Well, he could have at the start of the season when we were regularly 3+ goals up but even then he drained the starters to the last minute.

His second biggest mistake is no control of the game and slowing the game down. I don't think he'll learn that. Either blitkrieg works or he'll be gone soon, my bet is on the latter.

Having a few days break worked, i see no 'horrible season' from @Messigician or @iniestaGOAT anymore

 

[Barcaman]

Could be worse. Could have gotten 200 million budget and next hot coach Amorim

 

[Messi983]

Amorim would already win the league, lol.


2,5/10.

Only bright spots El Clasico and emergence of Casado.

Funny

 

[MontenegrinCuler]

Amorim has, by the way, just proven he can't cope with immense squad limitations - which are present in Barça as well (clearly not as much as in United, but they still are). His United is lowkey looking slightly worse than that of ETH, at least in the early days.

Funny

7.5 just as funny.

8 is a league win
8.5 league & cup double
9 CL & League
10 treble.

With how he's thrown away a league advantage to land at 7.5?.

 

[Birdy]

2- Great

The base is installed by Flick: expansive dynamic football, we win by blowing apart opponents. That's how Barca should play

Things that need to improve:
1) depth of the squad to sustain fighting in all fronts until the end. That's more on the board
and
2) Motivation and concentration for the easy LL games. That's more on Flick, he has to keep their minds in line

He has thrown away a league advantage but he has, defying all expectations, all logic and limitations embodied within this squad that previous manager has used to excuse poor results, also achieved that league advantage to begin with.

It is no proper excuse for throwing it away though. I agree, we lost some very dumb points. But this needs to be taken into consideration.

Okay. Can't tell anyone how to rate. Just found that interesting.

 

[Barcaman]

Xavi football 2/10
Flick football 8/10

Titles.. we'll see after 2 seasons.
