La Liga | Round 13: FC Barcelona - Levante 1-0

[serghei]

We were lucky he lost the ball 20-30 seconds before, and he was slow to get back. He accidentally played like a proper striker there in that action.

how many actual 1v1s has Messi even had this season? Feels like it's not a lot

 

[Rory]

Every other forward had chances to score and didn't. And yet people still moaning about Messi. Feel sorry for you guys

Finally a proper finish. Nice assist De Jong.

DeJong man of the match

Messi had 10 shots. This happens in every game. He is by far the least productive attacker in Europe right now.

Pedri has been excellent since he came on.

Very few because entire team passes the ball to him and other teams know this so they cover him well. Teams could cover him with 5 players and Alba will still pass to him

 

[serghei]

He was better in the 2nd half, to be honest. More involved and with better finishing.

Alba for Messi, episode 11

I'll kill myself

Valverde is in top2 of our coaches in last 8 years.

Don't be rude towards him.

That only speaks to how badly the other managers have been because EV is bang average.

He hasn't had many to be fair to him. Most of his shots have been at the edge of the box or there have been people around him.

Penessi. His time to shine.

Lol, that's a pen.

Yes I'm talking about the actual chances, context. Braithwaite 5 yards out, Griezmann basically the same.

My point exactly, it's a big problem he's not getting himself 1v1s, whether that's down to him or the team or a combination of both I don't know but let's not pretend he gets 10 sitters a game and just suck at finishing, it's not really true
