Very nice

Our guys should really practice set pieces this week.

Masip is a great shot stopper and good with the ball at his feet but he's weak in the air due to his height and setpieces will be one of his biggest weaknesses that we should take advantage of.

I have a feeling we're gonna see another freekick goal from Messi on Saturday

Except for against the toughest opponents, I'd expect Valverde to vary the starting lineup throughout the season. Surely the performances in the last game will put Coutinho in, and Semedo out. An opponent like this would be a good time to give starts to a couple of the new guys. Lenglet and Malcolm should at least get a few minutes as subs.

Man you do great job! I always love reading these statistics you post.

 

[EdmondDantes]

I think Valverde will go with a 4-4-2 with Coutinho wide left, Dembele wide right. Raki and Busquets in the middle. Sergi over Semedo at right back.

 

[raki]

0-4. No excuses Valverde.

 

[macleod]

0:5

 

[DonAK]

Another freaking 22:15 game

 

[xXKonan]

This match starts 3:15 PM my time.

I prefer the earlier 20:00/1:00PM starting times though.

 

[LordLichtenstein]

I expect Valverde to rotate and introduce Malcom.

REST:
- Dembélé

- Alba
- Piqué

 

[DonAK]

Valverde said Valladolid away is an even more dangerous opponent than Alaves so I would expect a way more conservative lineup tomorrow.

it's not going to be an easy game (we even lost the last time we last played there in 13-14 season) and I suspect Valverde will be a bit more conservative than he usual does. Also since the pitch isn't ready, I'm hoping nobody gets any serious injury.
