Game was lost by abysmal defending, silly amateur mistakes and poor game management from the manager. First goal Pique and Busquets amateur hour special, Lenglet with no brain to give the penalty. at 1-1 we looked more likely to win, if Koeman would have put some fresh legs on then we could have won. How many more errors leading to goals do Pique and Lenglet need to make to not be our starting pair?

As a huge Messi fan - the guy is finished for top-level football. His basic instincts and vision are gone. He is still technically great but frankly you can find useful players like him on much lower salaries.

His problem is lack of motivation. We should have let him leave.

We were killed by that penalty essentially.

It is a bad result but have to take the positives. Overall we weren't that bad even with this squad where Koeman wasnt given signings. Dest and Neto were great. Fati solid and Pedri, while quiet, wasn't impressed.

This!

Stop winning.
We were the better side, certainly in the second half.
The penalty changed the psychology. And at the end we were wide open.

Koeman has to learn to make subs, though. He has to make first subs earlier, and
completely messing structure and players the last 10 min is not an emergency plan.

We are not doing great, but this game was 50-50, maybe Barca slightly better.
Flo still controlling everything while our clowns are hiring firms to criticize our players.

Koeman is the biggest to blame for this, there is no doubt about it, how can we all who are not pro coaches see the problems in the first half and what changes need to be made but this coach does not in 80mins?

Disappointed...
Lost against worst Real of last ten years, otherwise a good first half.

We didn't have lose this Clasico at home!
Instead, we lost!
