midfield is more sharp without sergio. my ideal one considering the personnel is : rakitic roberto arthur. he should try this trio.

Lol, there should've been at least 2 added minutes.

I know ya. La liga refs seem to always blow up on 45 even if there's goals. They also seem to blow up right on the amount of added time even if there's a player down for a minute or two in that time

Open the damn chat:facepalm: Awfull defending a joke of a backline we have there. I really didnt miss roberto who is so slow and not good enough for a rb.

Our defense is letting us down.

Both Alba and Roberto haven't been good on the defensive end and both Pique and Lenglet not exactly covering themselves in glory either.

Maybe would switch Vidal for Coutinho.
Sure, Vidal runs alot, but he actually has to do something with the ball aswell.
Our defence is really crap, Raki is not there to help either like Busquetes usually is.
Lenglet is not startermaterial really.

Pretty much sums it up. Getafe haven't done much but they are not troubled at all wide, it's like our fullbacks are sleeping in their boots.

Roberto is not offering anything in attack or defense. At least with Semedo you know you are going strengthen the defence.

Take Roberto off please.

The mid doesn't help the defense that much either. Everyone of their mid players has ample time to pick up any sort off pass without any bother in the world.

It's Roberto's first game after an injury and it is pretty obvious that he has not regained his form. Looks a bit heavy and lacks that yard of pace he usually has. Semedo should have started, but he himself hasn't been impressive at all lately.

I feel one of the main issues with Roberto defensively is not his position, but the fact that physically he doesn't make his presence felt, it's all too comfortable having him as an opponent. Semedo is more physical, pushes the opponents more, attacks them with more intensity, is more of a fierce opponent to deal with that makes you're job harder.
