UCL 2nd Leg: Barcelona v Chelsea

*bleep* it. I aint watching anymore, cant stand it.

Not to say I told ya'll so...but I told ya'll so. Hope next time, some of you could actually discuss stuff without such bias.

Oh and Tello plus Keita was the most useless substitutions as I have ever seen.

I am devastated

I am getting good at this.

Its time for a fresh start. We aren't use to losing for the last season so it hurts even more. But next season, no excuses. Congrats to chelsea, congrats to Drogba (who is a legend) and congrats to torres. But we need to pick it up again.

aaaargh

Brady, we have always had problems with Chelsea. Parking the buss is not a problem when we actually take chances. It is our attack that has sucked big time this year. Messidependencia.

This loss is squarely on the shoulders of Pep & Number 10.

On the other hand, this meltdown is actually good for Barcelona. It will allow them to address the problems that lie with Barcelona, which are:

-Puyol needs to retire or go on the bench..too damn slow on counter attacks.
-Tello is not Bacra material, so is Keita.
- need plan B
-need a striker.
-need tall CB
-need left back

Broken right now. Never seen a team lose that should have won so easily

No.

Barcelona has problems with bus parking teams. Barca have not won the last 7 matches against Chelsea in the CL...says it all really.

I knew it, that's why im not bummed, plus being a Pats fan helps.

For *bleep* sake. I'm at a loss of words. We *bleep* this up. We just *bleep* this up. Chelsea was absolute shit and we still *bleep* it up. Why the *bleep* Keita? He was completely useless. Keita GTFO. And what will this mean for Pep? Will he leave us now? Is this why he refrained from saying anything about signing a new contract? I'm afraid it is.

Don't put the blame on Keita..put it on Pep.

I really do not get why dont we take more distance shots in such cases? Walking the ball is cool and efective but once in a while shooting from distance takes the defenders out of that tight formation to actually block that shot. Teams know we wont shoot so they tighten up even more.

I want Pep to stay. I really hope he does. A new manager wouldnt be apporved by the players either it seems.

Best option for replacement would be Bielsa. Hope it doesn't come to that.

And Brady, Keita was complete shit so yes I can be pissed at him for not performing at even a decent standard. I've already expressed my surprise about him getting time on the pitch so I know who put him up there. I clearly do not agree with this decision.

I loved the fans at the Camp Nou today. Awesome support showed by them to the team right through till the end and after too.

Pep has lost it. He took out Cuenca who was one of the better players on the pitch...

He needs a goal, so who does he bring on? Yeah ladies and gentlemen, nobody else than Holy Keita...

We couldnt penetrate through the middle, use the wings for gods sake. But no, force yourselves through the middle.

There is no time left, but we kept playing sideways... And across tje whole game the ball was moved sooooo slowly.

Chelsea were so lucky. And the players have only themselves to blame, you cant go through if you miss so many chances...


And another thing. We should start doing the same as Inter and Chelsea did. If you lead, then stop the ultra-attack-mode. Move the defenders back and keep the ball. Dont go forward if the plane is parked.

you cant win always, even if the odds are favoring barcelona. Football is just like that, not the best team always wins, its taking your chances when it matters. Ive lost some important games before, even tho we were clearly more superior side.

Well actually I blame Pep pretty much far all these matches, especially not taking of Tello vs RM. The loss with RM got us good, as the players got tired (Messi was way tired tonight) and lacking morale. He brings Keita in???

Well, I hope this makes him question his decisions over these games.

Nah, its not like Pep had much of a choice to turn the game around, considering barcas depth. Peps subs did cost the game, Il admit. Please, dont ban me now.

Well i do not get your comment, seams a bit ambiguous. Care to explain?

Tello on was just as bad...especially after the Real game showing...

Yeah, dont know why he brought on Tello... He only does 1 thing. Wonder why, a guy with his speed, and pretty good ballcontrol is fuking incapable of cutting inside. Whats the problem???????

He had Pedro and Thiago on the bench who should have been subbed in instead. But no, Keita must play. -.-

But the biggest misstake with the subs was taking Cuenca out.

Pep is retarded.
