Lliga | Round 21: Málaga CF - FC Barcelona 1-2

[SKS-]

Malaga play a very defensive style, but offer next to nothing in attack, so it'll be disappointing if we concede an early one to them. Not having Neymar will obviously make things a bit trickier given that he has been so vital in our attack, but the prospect of him picking up a YC here and missing the big one vs ATM is something we can't afford. Overall, If the end product is there and we don't make silly errors at the back, Barca should win this game.

Some statistics regarding this match:

- Malaga are tied with ATM for the best defensive record at home (5 goals conceded)
- Malaga have the 2nd worse attack in La Liga (15 goals scored)
- Malaga's Liga home record vs Barca over the past 15 seasons 1W 5D 7L
- Barcelona have not won away in Liga since El Clasico
- Barcelona have not lost a game since October 3rd vs Sevilla (23 game unbeaten streak in all comps)
- Barcelona have kept a clean sheet in their last 4 Liga matches

Not seen enough MSN this season. If it isn't an injury then it's a suspension, really frustrating so far.

 

[ManusXavi]

Um, no

Lets pretend that Neymar was completely available.
Why do you think it would be a good idea to play Neymar?
I personally do not feel we need all 'MSN' against Malaga

 

[barcafan161]

need him fully rested for next saturday thats the big one

 

[raskolnikov]

I hope we wont see Matthieu or Adriano at lb, just play Vermaelen there and Matthieu next to Masche or even Sergi Roberto as lb is better.

Hard away game ahead of us.. I heard Neymar won't play but Messi and Suarez should start.. This may be our chance.. Atletico is facing Sevilla at home and I'm hoping for a draw.. Visca!!!

 

[EdmondDantes]

It's gonna be a tough game, make no mistake about that. But Leo and Suarez are well rested and hungry for goals. Arda to pick up a few assists.

 

[Horatio]

Only one hour left....*sigh*

This time I'll come prepared and bring my cigarettes.


Sorry, still trying to quit?

If you want to be prepared you should bring food otherwise it's going to be the same debacle as in the last chat.

And there is no try. I already quit.

 

[Barcaman]

Are you sure?

Adriano... Sigh. I hope he at least tries to defend today.

 

[Barcaman]

Adriano and Munir on left flank....
