Mostly a cruise control game.

Firpo was a tank and looke much more assured of himself than previously.

Semedo was better than Roberto came on.

Busi, Raki and Arthur together is to much of the same and doesnt work. Rakitic thought was actually decent enough when Busi went off.

Messi looks up for it.

Fati looks the real deal.

Griezmann looked totally lost and Suarez when came on couldnt control the ball.

Decent performance overall.

I would use Fati against tired legs in The second half. Let Braithwaite and Suarez tire them out in the first half and allow both Fati and Griezmann to have a go at tired defenders.

Maybe I'm getting carried away because we've done without for so long, but I thought there were some real positives there tonight. Fati had an impact, Messi is still a joy to watch and great to see him playing with a smile on his face, Firpo looked much better than many of his previous appearances, and good to see Puig get 20 mins

I always felt valverde f'd thalt up with Dembele. He wpuld play him against park busses and sub him off after 60 minutes cause he cant sub Messi and Suarez when we finalle have space.

Training game from us. Also worth remembering Leganes is bottom of the league. Let's see what we got against Sevilla. With Setien I can't get my hopes up, but with the whole empty stadiums situation you never know.

Not the best team performance but a few good individual ones. Really think messi should be coming off after that second goal especially now that the games are coming thick and fast and most will be played in high temperatures

Messi looks great now. He looked awful before the Corona break. He seems refreshed.

Tbf Dembele didn't help himself by being so injury prone. I do agree with your point though. We could've used his speed in the second half instead of the same old, same old static play.

Except that first minutes where we were seriously threatened, with unwatchable atrocious play, whole thing looked like taking care of buissness.

We cant understand anything right now until we see against sevilla who would be in starting 11.

I hope we wont see rakitic busi partnership for awhile

The team is getting back in shape. Some of the players are taking good advantage of the chances they are getting. Lenglet, Vidal, Fati, Semedo and Braith have all shown they deserve to play more.

Some others do need to show better. Arthur is looking like midfielder #5 out of 5. When Lenglet ventured into midfield today, he was more effective than Arthur.
