Lliga: Barca - Valencia 2-0

[Barcaman]

Pedro made a better display than what Neymar was showing prior to that match.

Ney started playing better after being benched for that game.

Pedro already played against Valencia and he was useless, in fact Valencia knows too well how to counter the classic 4-3-3, with two pure wingers and a false 9, they just need to tighten their lines and force us to go through the center.

We need Suarez, and 2 creative attackers (difference makers) specially against a very disciplined team like Valencia.

Actually, I wanted Pedro to come in for Neymar with Suarez still on the pitch, this would brea the balance of Valencia's defence I believe.

I'd rather want Munir to start than Pedro...

And we all agree what Neymar was showing prior to that match was SHIT.. so... point still stands, Pedro was OK at best against ALMERIA, this is VALENCIA, the other end of the liga ranking, if Suarez is replaced with Pedro it's a huge blow, but what can we do.

But I just don't get people wanting Pedro to start this game even if MSN is fit, you must be seing something I don't when I watch pedro :/

I don't even know what to say.. we're facing the 2nd best defense in la liga (only barça received less goals) and Pedro to break the balance of their defence.. I'm speechless.

Game Day!!!! Let's take 3pts and move closer to the Liga Hopefully Luis will be fine but Pedro should start if there is anything wrong.

 

[Barcadub]

Montoya not in the squad.

Disappointed with that after Wesnesday but he always does a great job when called upon.

Suarez has a fantastic injury record so hope he'll be fit. I hope the fans listen to Lucho and fill the ground and make some noise.

It wont be such a big blow if Suarez starts on the bench. I prefer him to start though, but if we somehow are winning easily then him resting a game might help us more. Starting with Pedro and having Suarez on the bench wont hurt that much.

Valencia conceded only two goals in their last seven games. Extra tough match so we need to play it like it's a CL final. I'm glad we have the home advantage for this one and the whole stadium will be behind the players. Hoping for a Messi brace. A Barca game without a Messi goal feels odd.

Feels so weird with mid day games like this, I can't believe such a big and important game is just four and half hours away. I woke up half an hour ago, I'm not ready to be nervous just yet

Pedro on the right wing is pretty much useless. I hope Suarez starts and plays atleast 45 mins. Munir as #9 and Messi on the right wing could've been a better choice than starting Pedro on the right wing, but Munir is not in the squad..

 

[Mido]

This might sound a little bit controversial but I've never been impressed by Munir. I don't see anything special in him at the moment.
