Xavi is doing himself no favor by playing Lewy 90 minutes EVERY goddamn game

Xg of 3.06 and still drew the game, god it's so frustrating

Dead last Almeria next week at the Montjuïc . As we are in the mood to distribute points in Liga.

We had no less than 10 or 11 chances and only scored one fucking goal.

Looked better today but still can’t finish to save our lives

Author: LunarRaven7 | Score: 68 pts | Source

Honestly we need actual attackers in the winter. If we can swap or sell any of our attackers we should accept.

Author: LostUchiha1 | Score: 62 pts | Source

Just Imagine if we could finish…..

Author: Coolidge302 | Score: 62 pts | Source

Tactically, I dont understand the vision but we created chances I guess.

Lewandowski is cooked unfortunately.

Raphinha was our best attacker(not a high bar)

De Jong(who was so good creatively today) and Pedri are the only guaranteed starters on this team. Araujo too

Kounde should not start ahead of Christensen bar any extraordinary circumstances.

Balde, I love you, I love ur game but watching you try to cross is painful. Watch some Marcos Alonso highlights, then you advance to the Jordi Alba highlights.

Mr hairgel please give us Guiu, Fermin and Casado more. Lewa is cooked and we can't start risking Pedri again. The guy is running for his life, a natural mobile DM even if it is an academy product coming on for about 15 mins will help ease of the workload on our creative midfielders.

Felix gets away with another bad performance because he scored a tap in. He is not notably better than any of our attackers I swear the lack of work put in defensively from him is what kills me more.

I am tired and depressed from watching this team but I will be here on Wednesday again. I have no other option. Visca Barça.

It's incredible how Messi used to bang in goals week in week out for years.

Literally nothing to be happy about right now. This team is dead, no one cares. No motivation. Just fuck off

Author: thebrownestmamba | Score: 55 pts | Source

On the players tonight. Still shit at finishing and naive at defending. It’s a shame because we are creating a lot of occasions, the goal was maybe some of the best football we’ve played so far this season, but we’re still not sharp enough and it’s frustrating. Pedri and de Jong put in a shift tonight so well done. Gundo and Lewy are still not delivering what is expected of them.

Finally, I will thank Raphinha for his efforts and his assist here and there, but his end product in goals, decision making is simply poor and he is more upsetting than helpful. He had it in his boots tonight and fucked it up.

The problem is actually just the front three. Our midfield creates loads of chances every game but those three frauds are just allergic to scoring.

Also Balde is physically incapable of making a single good cross.

For the first time ever, a poor performance/result doesn’t hurt me. It has happened so much that I have become numb to it apparently.

Author: Allstate85 | Score: 47 pts | Source

Don’t know how people can watch and blame anything but the finishing. Its been shot all year

Author: fcbxjdb | Score: 31 pts | Source

closer to 5th place than 2nd 🙂

Author: rawdoggerpro | Score: 28 pts | Source

Whatever happened to Xavi’s “philosophy” where players compete to earn their spot in the playing 11? Are you telling me Lewa scores bangers every training sessions to come and fumble on the matchday?

Author: PrizeMarzipan401 | Score: 28 pts | Source

Just change Lewandowski man

Author: icestory | Score: 24 pts | Source

Official: Frenkie de Jong has been named as the MOTM.

Author: steelbro12 | Score: 24 pts | Source

Some of you are still blaming Xavi for our forwards being utter shit in front of goal 🤣🤣🤣

Author: abbytarar | Score: 21 pts | Source

This team won’t be good for as long as Lewy, Raphina and Felix are starters

Author: Masoud7711 | Score: 21 pts | Source

This is probably one of the worst Barcelonas I have ever seen. Crippled finishing, lack of urgency in defending and running like headless chickens.

Author: Jerry_41 | Score: 20 pts | Source

This team isn't fun to watch

Author: j3ffr3y_ | Score: 19 pts | Source

I know our attackers are shit right now but xavi's reluctance to try something different isnt helping either. Its like he is choosing to die on this hill. I wanna see something with 4 midfielders or 5 at the back. I know this aint fifa to be trying different formations all the time but jesus christ something has to work cause whats there rn aint it.

  1. Our form was great then we lost 2 of our biggest games this season in a row in the same week. What a disaster that week was. Have to finish top 2, no excuses not to,
