Lliga: Malaga - Barcelona 0-0

Doobs

The Messiah
What a horrendous match. Douglas was utter shite in attack. Pedro needs the bench as soon as we hit 12 on October 26th. That is all. Something is wrong when Messi barely sees the ball like he did today.
 
I think this is the worst game i have witnessed Barcelona played, you can blame the pitch, you can blame the ref, you can blame the bus, but that was shameful.
Only one positive and that was Bravo. Messi was absolute crap and so was Alba, and why the hell did we buy Douglas for? Jesus wept.

That was absolutely trash, No one looked like they could be arsed to play they should be embarrassed at the lack of effort.

Very disappointed with Lucho, douglas, and all upfront including Iniesta. If you to spare some do it at home where games are easier. It´s footbal 101.

Too pissed to say anything else.

Horrible game. Not much positives from it, just the clean sheet. Nothing worked, everyone was out of ideas... Messi, Iniesta, Neymar, Rakitic, Pedro, Busi, everyone was bad.

Malaga was aggressive, referee was shit and we sucked. Good think we end up with 0:0.
Messi. I think we won't see any pressing work from him anymore.
 
I'm struggling to think of a single player that gets any credit for that performance. Bravo - that is literally it. I've really come to the end of my tether with Pedro though. The kid is clearly lacking any sort of confidence and doesn't merit a place in the current squad, let alone starting every week. I'd give Sandro the start next time out.

Wellington is a dirty f*cker. If I remember correctly, he stomped on Messi’s hand a few years ago. I am not surprised.

Utter garbage. First half was bad, no authority, sloppy passing, no urgency and the successful passes fell on deaf play that crawled to a slow with no impact. Messi was none existent. Pedro & Alba doing my head in with rubbish crosses. Yeah they parked it and put the entire team behind the ball and it really is worrying that we don't have a solution to break through that kind of play as it's the oppositions go to tactic against us. We should have figured a way other than pass it around, look for an opening and trying to drag players out of position; not going to happen when the defense communicates and is well disciplined.

Ref had a bad game too and some fouls warranted yellow's. The hand to Messi's face is a blatant red, no argument, simple red card decision. Don't care if Messi made a meal of it it's a straight red, it's unacceptable and the referee should know better. Guarantee if that was Penaldo, it would have been a red to the offending player and a penalty awarded.

The second half wasn't much better, in fact it was worse. Malaga came out with hunger and Barça looked lost with no creativity, no build up and timid at the back as they hoofed it away. Only a couple of squeaky bum hole moments but otherwise I worry about that line up at the back.

Inability to finish and too scared to shoot, a fair few shots on goal but only Piqué's header was on target but that was ruled as a foul anyway.

Oh and the pitch was pathetic!

2pts thrown away.

Total shit match... Nothing different from last season. Not a single shot on target. Seriously ffs this is not how we win a league. Lot of work. We are not better than real or atletico. At least real can score more easily.

Teams have been playing against us like Malaga did for years, it's seriously worrying that we don't have a solution for that yet. Maybe Suárez is the answer, but it shouldn't really depend on one player.

Exactly.
A part to play more canteranos, what has Lucho tactically changed from last year ?

Malaga fought like lions, we were like lambs
