Champions League Group Stage - Group D

0-1 FT Don't know what doping Sporting does but they had the same pace the whole game, great effort.

If Suarez had the worst game of alltime last time, Rakitic is probably the new record holder. God knows how he played the whole game.

Malboro man probably ran more than whole Barca career, and didn't even injure himself.

Boy do Barca know how to put a game on snooze. If this was us Sporting would be all over us. They didn't even press in the last couple of minutes. Bottlers

We are so bad. How do we keep winning with clean sheets on top of that?

We were absolutely awful

No clue how Barca won this one

what a bizarre haircut

Allegri expected to go with the old guard.

Buffon; Sandro, Chiellini, Benatia, Sturaro; Matuidi, Pjanic; Mandzukic, Dybala, Cuadrado; Higuain

Shame

Benatia, Sturaro, winger Mandzukic... all pleasant things really

Not sure what Douglas and Bernardeschi have to do to start two games in a row but a result is all that matters I suppose

I feel like Allegri reads GL and he's reverse jinxing us, unleashing his best 11 as late into the season as he can manage

He is relying on the tried and trusted players for a must win game. Its not the most exciting lineup but its understandable.

We know that Allegri has the patented 3/4 month adaptation for new "young" players.

Lets win this

More like Marotta reads GL... buying @Rincon for no reason last year was a flagrant proof.

Allegri, i doubt he has time to go on the internet... too busy masturbating about frequently starting the most obsolete possible squad. I'd even suppose a love triangle between him, Sturaro and Mandzukic.

Unfortunately, I must ride or die with brother @rincon but I'm not happy about the treatment of our wingers in place of this beta cuck attack

Hopefully no penalties tonight, I can't keep doing this

I hope we get tons of penalties, let Pjanic take them.

We can't leave behind such an "important part of our success" (like some rival fans would say) just because Dybala is a pussy who caves under pressure.

Suarez is bad, did anybody say that already? He's awful. And probably the most biased referee performances I've seen since Uefadrid Bayern last year.

Suarez is a disgrace lmao

Deulofeu on the other hand is fantastic though

I feel like if Sporting had a bit more quality and willingness to attack us, we would be in big trouble with this line up.

Thankfully, they’re respecting us a bit too much and probably don’t have that kind of quality available for them.

We woke up after gifting them a goal, thanks Sturaro and Alex Sandro. But despite our quality we really don’t make the quality of chances you’d expect.

All four of our attackers can be replaced. They’ve all had their moments but in front of goal they disappear

Lmao deulofeu subbed off..... Fvck you valverde

Play Benatia until he inevitably injured himself so that you can spend a sub on Barzagli

Joga bonito

Olympiakos, what a disgrace, worst team Ive seen in a long time. Man up, one down bunkers up and loses even more. This ref though, have to memorize his name, worst refereeing performance you can have without giving points to someone.

Allegri holds onto his substitution until 83 minutes

83:15 Douglas Costa on
83:40 Douglas Costa assist to Mandzukic (great cross)

This team is horribly frustrating to watch but I’ll take the win

We dominated since minute 20 after the own goal. Unlucky to not score more. Crap service to Higuain who did well with what he got. Cuadrado and Chiellini our best players. Barzagli made us look so much more solid than Benatia. Pjanic looked lost at first, it seems he needs time to pick up form. Matuidi very ineffective, Khedira's runs were looking much more dangerous and had us creating better chances. I guess he wasn't ready to play 90 minutes. Dybala was good.

Suarez was shocking lmao

Olympiakos are horrendous though

Firs half of the group stage done

Barca 9
Juve 6
Sporting 3
Olympiacos 0

If we win in Portugal in 2 weeks then its over.

We won in the end but Suarez should have been subbed off instead of Deulofeu 100%. That's just so unfair and uncalled for to treat Deulo like that. who was having a splendid performance as opposed to Suarez who is just a wasteman as of late
