Messi defies logic mate. Logically speaking there are higher chances barca will lose to you guys today. But that doesn't mean barca have zero chance.

Why? On paper Barca is at least 10 times better. Not sure how it can be logically a loss. But hey, it's better to say you will lose, so when you win (which will 99% happen anyway), you have a higher happiness level, is that the case?


P.S. I really do hope that it will be a good match and may the best team on the night win. Also, the most important thing, hopefully the referee won't screw this up... as it wouldn't be the first time to happen.

By that definition barca should win every match, not lose to sociedad every season and struggle at Pizjuan every season. Twice in a row humiliated by celta. It doesn't work like that, there are lot of variables in the play. Barca are playing bad right now with Pique out and Busi on shit form. So really hard to keep the score at 0 considering sevilla attack. And our front three is not firing on all cylinders while our midfield creates nothing. That is when logic comes into play. But matches hardly play out into what you expect them to. We could easily thrash you guys 5-0 or lose by 3-1 or 4-1. Hard to predict.

Morten, is that you? :lol:

Anyway, how many times did we win at your stadium in recent years? Still to even win a league game there with Lucho.

Nahh come on now.... it can be anything but logical. It may be 'probable' to lose, as you mentioned in the last sentence, you can win or lose, that's a probability, but the logic is... you will win, and of course, in every match, Barca is the favorite, because it is the best team in the world, simply put.

False... you won 0-2 in the Supercup match in RSP with Lucho this August... and out of 4 last matches in RSP since 2014, you won 2, drew 1 and lost 1 (without Messi).

I think it's a problem because noone is good enough (or above other B options) to step in for Iniesta-Rakitic.
Denis and Rafinha deserve as much chances as Gomes does, if not more.

Will be interesting to see who he picks here.


Rafina proved himself by now. But I'am affraid he is to much ofensive against Sevilla.

Which is why I said league game. Last league game we won there was with Tata after Messi pulled a rabbit out of his hat. Was an amazing game. One of best we played in that season.

If you stuck to a narrowed version of reasoning yeah your logic will say barca will win because they are good on paper. It is a bad logic that is it. If you are more preferable with the word "Probability" that is also fine. But I would prefer the former, because I can not predict the chances precisely. Lot of unknowns. All I know is if barca played like they did in last few matches I don't see us getting anything from the match. If we do turn up things will change obviously. Like you said on paper we are favourites.

Aahh, my bad then.

Still.... Barca are the ultimate favorites in almost every match, let alone vs. Sevilla!

Yeah but you are considering Sevilla as Real Madrid or something.... Sevilla is known to succumb vs. teams that put a lot of pressure and are often unlucky plus not get a good treatment from the referees vs. big teams (RM and Atletico included).
