Yeah, it was a great game. Valencia earned that point nicely and Messi is too amazing.

Aleñá leaving was the end of the match IMHO. The guy's awareness, technique and intelligence is top notch. Not to mention his passing. Really, really impressed by him.

Once Peasant Arthur replaced him you could see there is an empty spot in the middle/right when Barça attacked. He didn't get involved in the final third, signature back passes, etc. Don't see what the fuss is about.

Too much horizontal passing from us, no vertical penetration whatsoever.

Get the win tomorrow and close the gap bit would very good for the team confidence and pathetico gets win put pressure on barca to stumble.

The Madrid fans thinking they can catch up Laughing

I'll support Madrid next season if they win the league this year.

Please don't

You know full well barca is the type of team to go in a downward spiral, when a couple results go wrong just 2 more stumbles la liga is back on.

by halamadrid2 Sat Feb 02, 2019 7:49 pm

Sadly 10 pointa is too big a gap to mount. I'd rather we rest players against Pathetico provided Celta get a result today and focus on the two away games against Ajax and Barca

by chad4401 Sat Feb 02, 2019 7:53 pm

True might be impossible but there is a lot of room for mistakes, and the team needs to stay somewhat motivated in league to maintain form anyway.

by halamadrid2 Sat Feb 02, 2019 8:00 pm

The toughest games Barca have left where they might lose points are @Celta@Betis@RM. We'd have to be point perfect to even have a chance. Wouldn't want anyone getting injured chasing a lost cause. The two cups should be our priority

Lol Madrid will be a far easier match for Barca than Valencia was.

Can't wait to knock you out of the copa. Mental midget Mehssi will go home depressed and walk his team out of CL. Big Benz got this

by Doc Sat Feb 02, 2019 9:04 pm

The fans being scared is irrelevant, it's the players that need to be up for it and I would hope so. I know Suarez would. Ugh.

by halamadrid2 Sat Feb 02, 2019 9:24 pm

Suarez senses blood when he sees TC in goal

And Sevilla is losing to Celta, Jay really can't have nice things. Hopefully he isn't an avid England cricket follower as well.

by halamadrid2 Sat Feb 02, 2019 9:53 pm

Annd Sevilla lost

What's wrong with Villarreal (aside from may be they have a shitty team)? They used to be a decent club but now they are almost certain to be relegated.

by halamadrid2 Sun Feb 03, 2019 9:17 am

*Thinking out loud* Omg i just realised Barca are only 6 pts ahead of Atleti. With a win today Atleti will be within 3 points of Barca. Seeing as we cant win the league I'd let Atleti beat us next week and do them a solid against Barca, that way they can do us a solid against Juve and all the other big teams they'll get out of our way and then well win it at Wanda for the last laugh hmm

by Myesyats Sun Feb 03, 2019 9:45 am

Never think out loud again, thanks.

by Hapless_Hans Sun Feb 03, 2019 10:31 am

So I see Barca got gifted a point by bad refereeing after that Semedo dive

Unbelievable that this title race is still open given what's been going on at Real

Valverde is not good enough a coach for Barca; also, no Dembélé, no party.
