Lliga | Round 11: FC Barcelona - Sevilla FC 2-1

[bodi16]

Keep hearing this and keep winning.

Plenty of players have been doing well.

Sevilla are not that great a side.

We were struggling against Malaga at home for example, though Sevilla might be a completely different story when talking about our players motivation.

Other than Messi, who else do you expect to create a goal for us? Our defense and goalkeeping have been solid. Messi is the only threat going forwards.

That is a different argument though and team has been winning due to likes of Ter Stegen, Umtiti, Roberto, Busi, Paulinho and even Suarez at times.

Of course Messi is by far the most creative player in team but the other players as a total are still creating more than him.

The idea it is Messi or no one doesnt fit and it hasnt been the case.

That wasnt really a game the whole team struggled and Messi pulled the team through though.

We were barely creating chances in that match apart from the goals (and the first one wasn't even legit). I know Sevilla aren't in their best form lately, but they are not Malaga and can bully us on counter if we don't manage to create and score when needed.

 

[Barcaman]

Sevilla played just 2 days ago in Europa League and they are one of the teams Messi scored most goals against.

We aren't playing great but I doubt we'll falter.

Yeah, said few pages back they have Spartak at home and they need points.

Am getting old

Still quite a quick turnaround for them.

Even then they have not been great this season. Barca should win this fairly easily.

 

[xXKonan]

Paco is alive.

 

[hardyboy]

Is Alena on the bench?

Nope Valverde decided having two CB's on the bench is more important.

 

[JamDav1982]

Must be two up top with Messi in behind.

If that is the case need Semedo on right to take all that side and just start going for it.

 

[mesiesta]

Not so excited by seeing Paco in the squad, but it's a good/last chance for him to prove that he can be useful, let's see.

 

[God Serena]

There is no universe where Paco is good enough to be starting such against Sevilla. Lol whatever, just gotta hope the rest of the team is able to carry him.
