Messi is a fucking privileged child. He gives zero shit about the team, all he thinks about is himself. He decides to dribble instead of passing and loses the ball for counters; he decides to stop playing when he thinks it should be a foul and the other team takes the ball and counter.

Also, we don't have what it takes to control the game with only 2 midfielders. The 4-2-3-1 is failing us big time with the personnel we have. Our current squad is best suited to 4-3-3.

Dembele is still significantly more dangerous and productive than griezmann. There’s no more excuses left for the fortnight moron

The only reason Dembele is more dangerous is because of his pace. I feel he just loses the ball an awful lot. I do agree with you about Griezmann. His time is over. He's just been a poor signing.

Messi can play only on the bench currently.
4231 and 433 are not for him.

There would be a place for him, but he's shown poor adaptive skills to match his current situation. Basically, he can't be anything else than hero player demanding the ball all the time and making plays.

He can't play wide. Can't play striker. Can't play classic AM because of poor workrate. He can only be an old no10 who does little to no defensive work and demands the action to be made through him far too often.

He plays for the foul more and more these days im noticing. in the past he would always try to stay on his feet

Problem with barca was never defense. Our defense with Rickard and pep was worse and made worse mistakes because we would always outscore opponents. Problem with this barca is the sterile attack. Completely sterile

Excuse me, what?
Under Pep, Barca conceded the least goals by far in just about every season, 09/10 they conceded 24, and in 10/11 they conceded 21.

They were not shaky defensively, at all.

Told ya shit season is coming. We don't have the personnel to win anything. Dreadful attack, non-existent midifeld and same defense for the last 3 seasons.

It's only going to get worse throughout the season. Messi doesn't a crap half the time. I did say it'll be his worst season for us.

We should have left him go whilst we had the chance.

It's mainly because of the attack in my opinion and the ridiculous possession. Most games ended up with 70% or more even against world class teams
