Everyone looks more intense than us, even mid table teams. Nice, soon we'll start winning some games as teams will fell sorry for us and won't be as fired up as now.

But Xavi checked L. De Yong, Umtiti, Dembele, there is no benefit. There is nothing to do in football without protection.

Undeserved based on chances and xG

But Xavi got punished for a very conservative play, especially after the 1-2.
No need to sit back, when you play fucking Osasuna

If we don't get at least two or three new players in January, this team making into the Conference League will be a great achievement. We're not even top 5 in Spain right now, Real, Atletico, Sevilla, Sociedad and Betis are. And i'm not just talking about looking at the table right now. At this rate we're gonna be fighting for that 6th spot with Valencia and Bilbao (and with possibly one more surprise team, that seems to be Rayo for now).

They are afraid and begin to play for time. This is the mentality. Take young Abde, Gavi, Nico, Pedri, Araujo, Garcia, R. Puig, and start building a team based on them. It will not be worse. 2: 8 is in their heads forever.

When I said to the likes of Sergei and other football wanabe expert this team including the likes of FDJ is at best a garbage team without Messi ..

Here we go again starting another 2000's era or worse waiting for the Next Dinho to shake us !!

Unfortunate. This is what the team is currently though so not really surprised….

I expect this is how matches will go for the rest of the season. Some times they will hold on, other times not like today.

Yeah, this was the worst thing I thought. Umtiti started wasting time in the first half already, and then again when they were in the lead.
A lot of throw ins took 15 seconds just to get to the ball, and no one came to show himself for a fast one, then just a chance hoof throw that immediately turned to a

I'd much prefer it to lose 0-3 to Osasuna if only these signs were different (no mindless hoofs, no time-wasting etc). I do not know anymore if I should be positive towards the future, I thought Xavi would be a guarantee for these things but it seems he is not, but instead a bit of a pussy who was very afraid to lose the 2-1 lead, and so lost the 2-1 lead.

Seeing this result it reminds me about an old quote from [MENTION=19457]KingLeo10[/MENTION] ''I see Sergio i see no away win''. Stunning.

How I wish I could be wrong.

But playing with this guy is starting a man less in midfield in 2022.

He was great pre 2015, but FFS it's almost 7 years of mediocrity since.
