Two coaches played this game.

One coach going out with a a team that knew (somewhat) how to defend, but was clueless in creating a chance in the final third,

and another that knew how to attack wave after wave after wave to eventually make the opposition crumble

Find who is the Barca coach...

He's an atrocious manager.

People actually credit this guy for La Liga? A league where the likes of Real Betis, Rayo Athletic are occupy places 5th-7th place in the league.

Does anyone actually believe that these teams are better than the likes of Leicester, Wolves or West Ham who are fighting relegation in the Premier League?

He's just terrible and is riding the graces of winning a terrible competition like La Liga.

I don't get why we see not advancing against United as a failure.
They have a hugely larger squad of averagely better players and a more experienced coach.
What was the expectation here? We are broke and they have spent billions the last 10 years.
On top of that we were missing 3 of our best players.
Get a grip. This fanbase is delusional.

The intensity, atmosphere, and pressure of a European night will ALWAYS be greater than domestic competitions. I don't think he has quite adjusted to how different these matches can be than the ones in Spain. With time, I hope he will learn.

Why the fuck did he stand there for so long without making a change? We were on the ropes for at least 20 minutes while Ten Haag makes 3 subs and wins the game.

He was happy with the way we played the end of the first half, so he didn't make any changes, yet Ten Hag made sub 45 min, when he saw it wasn't working. Slow reaction, that's all.

You are delusional.

Any proper manager would have secured the win.

Xavi has the worst European record of any Barca manager.

Me?

Sherlock, I said the tie is 55-45 for United after Dembele got injured, and that it would be decided by 1 goal and it's what happened.

We played a solid match. Had as many big chances as they did, they scored 1 more goal.

You lot are the worst type of fans.

Get a grip. Healthy Barca is a favorite vs this sad sack of a United team. Or it should be for sure.

Dembele wins this for us and the proper coach. That's it.

The thing is, we can create chances, it is just the mentality of the manager.

He tries to grind out results by getting crappy goals and riding luck on chances missed by opposition. Works against Cadiz but not likes of United.

We scored three flukey goals and that's it. We were laughable today in attack.

Xavi is just lucky Madrid and Atletico are shit in LL this season, otherwise he would have been sacked already.
