No doubt— Flick-ball miles more entertaining than Xavi-ball. Barca fun to watch again. Much more trying to work balls through the middle with slick passing.

Very much still a work in progress for obvious reasons, but we're entertaining without particularly playing well. And the fitness levels look impressive.

It's all on track though. And you can see the squad needed a managerial change and a new air.

I think a lot of it is just putting players in positions that suit them and not forcing some dumb positional play system.

He is trying to suit the tactics more to the players attributes and not putting square pegs into round holes.

End result : 3/3 with great performance so far. The only thing we're missing is some more clinicality as we could have won these games by bigger score.

Agreed.

It's actually a bit of a throwback to the old Barca before tiki taka got indoctrined.

A bit like Bobby Robsons Barca. Alot of relentless attacking, with what looks like a weak defensive.

Fun games. Quite literally if you score x, we will score x+1.
