Riqui Puig needs to sign up for a gym membership and invest in some protein shakes.

The guy has the body of my 13 year old cousin.

Can't remember the last game when we dominated the whole 90 minutes, that was pretty impressive.

Saved by the post and the red, struggling to score against 11 men Granada at home. No doubt in CL away games against elite teams we'll own from here on with Setienball. :bow:

Agreed. What is he 5'5 and 115 pounds? Unreal.

Also, Griezmann really has to work on his finishing coming from the left channel. Guy constantly blasts the ball over the near post and hits the side netting. Those half chances are the sort of chances he has to put away in the big matches when chance creation isn't as high.

It's going to be a long season if Setiens idea of winning games is racking up passes. Granada could probably have held on for a draw if not for the red

I'm already seeing improvement and it's just 1 game.

Riqui Puig needs to be higher in the pecking order over Rakitic. ffs this boy has talent.

Yeah. Only a week and you can already see the work Setien put in. This Granada would have dominated us for long periods of the game normally

Although we really suffered without Suarez. A proper CF is crucial

Wish we just paid Lautaro's release clause and were done with it

Just as I thought.

Dominating half of football, Granada had nothing, Fati could've a hat-trick. Nice couple touch passing. Suarez out, Barca is definitely missing those missed passes up front.


I don’t know why you decided to rip on Norway for no reason. I have noticed you making similar references to Norway in the past. Now that I think about it, you may have recycled that «burn» a couple of times. I don’t even know what it’s a reference to.

I don’t mind a joke, but you’re not the joking type. I mean, your sense of humor includes going into threads of players you deem a threat to Messi, and writing «who?» multiple times. Is this another one of your inferiority complexes? hmm

Agreed. Cannot wait to see Barcelona blow, for the 3rd time, another 3 goal lead in a CL KO round. Treble indeed.

82,6% possession, third highest in Liga since 05-06. 1005 attempted passes, the seconds highest in Europe in recorded history. :coffee: Also Busquets first Whoscored.com MoM since 15-16.

926 successful passes which is near to Bayern's record against Hertha in 2014 where they completed 1,033 passes.

Avoid losing the ball so you don't have to run back. This is the right attitude.

Donkeys like Busquets and Rakitic won't last long under Setien. He will not settle for their mediocrity and turtle-like movement.

I'm sure Puig impressed last night, he gave the team more in 30 minutes than Rakitic in the last 5 months.

Impressive game indeed, but I wouldnt be carried away too easily. Granada have given us trouble recently but on the other hand I thought they were as good as they were, partly us making them not but feels like partly themselves. Luck was on our side too.

Puig arent gonna start unless its vs the scrub teams occasionally, the kid just cant compete physically vs the stronger opponents. Fati/Perez we will need to somehow squeeze the best out of them but I am not hopeful. Every member of the team have to help in scoring goals now, or unless we can still keeping clean sheets lol.

Busquets was your best player yesterday. He’ll look much better under Setien. The central midfielders are playing in close proximity to him. He doesn’t have as much ground to cover. The smaller the space the better you defend. He doesn’t have to deal with the CM’s playing as false wingbacks anymore to cover Messi’s laziness ffs.

Yeah, Busquets even with his best game in ages lost the ball dangerously and looked like a 70 year old granny trying to recover. Against Granada at home. He's finished and a small "let's impress the new gaffer" performance won't change much once he's up against elite teams away from home in 3 months.

Only thing that matters is how long the new manager bump will last. Ole had about 15 wins in a row at the beginning of his United tenure if I remember correctly (long forgotten times). Maybe Setien can expand it until May and we can sneak the CL.

Though without Suarez, and Griezmann looking more like an attacking midfielder than a striker there is 5 % hope IMO.

We are much better than United. That comparison is utter shambles.

Busquets will be slowly phased out as he should be, the upcoming summer window will be key.

I'm also pretty sure Frenkie and Arthur will blossom under Quique Taka, god willing

But if we don't sign a CF now, we are done for the season.

Honestly at least 8 players Barca fielded today are 2nd division level (including Rakitic, yes)

Neto is even worse than Kepa

Ansu is practical playing as a forward. Not sure this 343 formation will work long term. Maybe as a "surprise line up" but not as standard

Love him or hate him Valverde was quick with subs when things were looking bad at HT. Setien still hasn't taken anyone out

@zigra deceived Barça with his FDJ hype.

Although not as bad as Apostle Hans' Evangel of Coming of Lord Ousmane.
