La Liga | Round 2: Athletic Bilbao - FC Barcelona

[soul24rage]

It's the same line up as the last game.

 

[serghei]

To be expected. Koeman rarely changes the team if they played well the game before.

 

[Gari]

Bar?a bench: I?aki Pe?a, Arnau Tenas; Araujo, Lenglet, Emerson, Balde; Sergi Roberto, Riqui Puig, Nico, Gavi; Manaj, Demir.

 

[soul24rage]

Very excited for this match. It'll be a true test for this team.

Pace of Williams will be a big test for Pique-Garcia

To be expected. Koeman rarely changes the team if they played well the game before.

Let's hope they win again then, because luckily Koeman has started the season with a reasonably good eleven.
I don't think Araujo is at all needed, and I even think he was the one failing in that supercopa final last season...

What is Gavis position right now? Him being on the bench here doesn't make him miss any playing time for Barcelona B right?
I hope to only see players from this "Balde; Sergi Roberto, Riqui Puig, Nico, Gavi; Manaj, Demir. " part of Garis list of subs get playing time today... Expecting another Lenglet+Araujo entrance when Koeman gets worried.

Being AM/Pedri sub #1.

 

[Bobo32]

Being AM/Pedri sub #1.

I think that might be Demir, and that Nico might be in front of Gavi in that position too.
I hope that Gavi gets to play a lot of football this year, preferrably in Barcelona B but also some in A.

Would have liked to see Aruajo. Curious to see how Pique (doesn’t he have a knock?!?) will cope with Williams.

Visca Barca. Would be pretty sweet if we can go into San Mames and get a victory.

 

[raedkuwait]

The problem is, even if we play bad and lose, guess what's our next game line up would be.

Yup still the same line up. Hhhhh

 

[Rassvet]

Villareal dropping more points. My fears of missing top 4 are looking greatly exagerrated

It was always exaggerated. Will be a shocker if we don't make top 4

 

[JamDav1982]

Araujo in at CB for the pace would def be handy but cant forget Araujo started 3 games vs this lot last season and Barca conceded 7 goals.

But any goal tonight will be put down to him not playing...

 

[gregorrin10]

Seems like waiting to see Araujo-Garcia CB pair is gonna take about the same amount of time as seeing the Pedri-De Jong-Puig midfield...
