FC Barcelona - Sevilla | La Liga Matchday 4 | Sept 14, 2013

14:00 EST | 19:00 GMT | 20:00 CET

Valdés, Pinto, Montoya, Piqué, Fàbregas, Xavi, Iniesta, Alexis, Messi, Neymar Jr, Dos Santos, Mascherano, Bartra, Sergio, A.Song, Jordi Alba, Tello, Adriano, Dani Alves y Sergi Roberto.

Personally would like to see a team heavily rotated with players that didn't go on international duty.

Valdes
Montoya - Pique - Masche - Adriano
Xavi - Song - Sergi Roberto
Alexis - Messi - Neymar

So the game is 1 my time which I think is like 6 Barca time...I'd have to double check that.

Either way, it's at the Camp Nou, we're coming back from international break...could we see the FIFA virus strike again? I'd be very fearful of this game last year but Sevilla are rebuilding and, having not seen them yet and judging purely by results where they drew 2 and lost 1, don't seem to be very impressive yet. Official results are a 1-3 loss against Atletico, a 0-0 draw with Levante, and a 2-2 draw with Malaga. All teams that can give trouble on their own day and it's early in the season yet. Either way, Sevilla can always be a dangerous side, although beat them very often.

Will we see Neymar grab a goal like he did this week with Brazil?

It's going to be nice to see Barca again

I'm predicting a 3-0 win.

Nice post bro but BC already made one... Merge?
I'm predicting a clean sheet with probably at least two goals!

would be great match i hope. Lately we had not been doing bad after intl. break. so i am confident we can win comfortably....
Would be great to see Sergi roberto. din see him as a starter yet.....

Tello should start.

I think Tello should start too. I was actually surprised he signed a new contract so quickly, if he was a little but frustrated about not playing enough relative to his performances, I would be quite understanding.

He very rarely doesnt play well, he just doesnt start enough.

Though its also true, he worse games have come when he has started.

I would compare Tello's performance as Walcott's who i think provide everything you need when coming of the bench as compared to starting a match from the beginning.

I agree, but not for very long do 22 year old's enjoy being seen as someone you bring from the bench.

Barcelona line-up (official): Valdes - Alves Pique Mascherano Alba - Xavi Busquets Iniesta - Tello Messi Neymar

so Tello gets a chance...hope he does well

Great 1st Half by Neymar! Finally looks comfortable out there, outplayed Messi by a wide margin.. He was constant trouble for the opponent out there.

Kinda good in a way that Messi is playing like s**t. It allows us to see the full impact of Neymar and whether messidepedence is trully over.

Neymar is bossing it so far , should have scored though.

Get Tello off the right, he cant play there, I think thats clear.

That was clear even from last season, he was never one to play on the right. It's left or nada for me in regards to Tello.

In a matter totally unrelated to football, Iniesta MUST keep his hair much shorter than it is currently. Needs to get it done to number 1 or 2 max.

In its current form, his baldness is painful to see

2 nil, Messi.

Neymar's total faith in his left foot is joyous.

Agreed there. Great pass from Neymar.

People talking about Neymar taking the goalscoring burden off Messi, and I agree with that, but right now he's looking like a great assist and creative outlet up front. Good to see he can do both.

Embarrassing defense there.

WTF was Masch doing? So bad.

I would like to see how they broke the press, I missed that part of the action. Wont blame anyone untill I see that again.

We will be lucky to avoid 2-2 here, fading bad, should of put away another of these many chances

There you go, 2-2.

god *bleep* dammit

holy shit our defending on set pieces is so bad

*bleep*

BTW this is the flaw of man marking, when someone loses their man, there is no cover, no back up. So if someone weak is marking (dont know who there) that happens.

HE WAS COMPLETELY FREE
