La Liga Round 33: Barca - Mallorca 1-0

[BusiTheKing]

Hope to see Raphinha rested. Guy is just a different beast with a full tank. Need him leading the pack in the Copa final.

Could try Ansu/Pau Victor out there. Gavi would be fine as well.

 

[Birdy]

Ferran to start
Hopefully all of FAti Pau Victor Pablo Torre see the pitch in the 2nd half to rest starters

 

[JamDav1982]

Surely there is no option but Ferran to start.

The only possible alternative would be Olmo but he needed at AM let alone not being long back.

Ferran to start then taken off for Pau if ahead would think.

 

[Horatio]

lowkey hyped


highkey as well actually

 

[Barcaman]

Scored 5 in each of the 3 matches Lewa was on the bench.

I wonder why its so early, isnt it usually after semi final??

They moved it forward since 2019? I think. Usually CdR final was always way later in the season, just before the cl final, after the leagues finished. But maybe they thought they get more viewers moving it forward, when leagues are still running.

 

[JamDav1982]

The final has been flipping back and forth throughout the last two months of season for years.

 

[FCBarca]

No significant absences, apart from Mats, Lewy & Balde

 

[MonteCuler]

Wow kinda forgot about Christensen

Defo should get some minutes. I hope Flick doesn't keep him on the bench until the end because every single option in rotation can be valuable (something Flick has imo missed to acknowledge by completely ruling some players out of rotation).

 

[JamDav1982]

Garcia needs to shave that heed and embrace his inner Mascherano.

We play like a match every third-fourth day now for some time and until the end of the season - and every match is a must win and more difficult teams we're up against. Honestly... I don't blame Flick or the players if we end up with maybe only Copa, second in LL and a CL final - this squad is to thin, not enough rotation can be had if we wan't to keep getting 3 points and players are starting to look exhausted and lost some sharpness.
I wish we could play more conservative to not risk injury and exhaust our players - do we really have to play this crazy high suicide line? Flick doesn't know how to mix it up a little or what? We don't have to sit in Tek's lap, but maybe play just a tad more defensively sometimes and wait for a fast counter now that we don't have tractor - with Raphinha, Shark and Yamal we can invite Mallorca up the pitch to create some space for our fast attacking trio. No?

Mallorca at home is the time to do it, also give Torre some minutes pls.

Gala 11 (including Olmo if possible from the start).

Rather lose the Copa final than this one. We can rest players and play low intensity when we have a comfortable lead.

 

[Loki]

do we really have to play this crazy high suicide line?

 

[Loki]

Rather lose the Copa final than this one.

Sure, rather lose a clasico final in the Copa than a LaLiga match that can end up being meaningless anyways. Makes sense.
