La Liga 2023/24

Only recently found out about xavi saying he gonna quit.

A tactical fool with an outdated philosophy trying to impose it on a team who isnt suited to what they're trying to do.

I would've preferred him to stay so that barcelona would forever remain irrelevant... But it seems he finally bought himself a clue.

A shame indeed. Was hoping he stay at farsa forever for our benefit.

Ferran hamstring off in 5 mins, in tears as expected for this wimp... w00t! Havent had so good news in a long time I might enjoy watching us more these new few months for this alone!

Lol @ replacement Fermins clearance for the opposition instead of placing the ball into the net from Yamal's cross

Felix is also injured so this is not gonna make a difference.


Im not sure if Xavi is blind or something but you need a DM in the buildup and we have like a blank space where normally a dm should be

literally unwatchable,

Yea Romeu was a huge mistake... n De Jong proved to be not a good DM, so we really dont have one. I guess hope is we'll get a new one in the summer (although I guess we can only afford cheap one) or convert Gavi into one if thats possible?

Barcas downcycle has been in motion for a long while, only fully being realized now, Xavi did well last season to snatch a league win n the economics levers delayed it somewhat?

Fermin the sub gets subbed for Roque finally lol.... Gundogan consistently being our biggest threat in attack this season says it all...

And Roque scores already Cancelo outside of the foot curler cross as usual so sexy

Roque puts Lewandisney to shame. Was so happy to score his first

Roque such a difference making here, just having the pace to run behind n urgency... gets pulled for that second yellow, should be game now

Of cos Osasuna suck in general... but pls, now Roque must start finally. I'm happy finally with our team next should be (hope hes eligble for the CL?)

Roque Lewand Yamal

De Jong Gundo Pedri

Cancelo Christensen/kid Araujo Kounde

Flo seems to have well paid the refs this season, including telling them not to award us pens or something... cos we should have had a couple here again

Classy goal from us... havent seen such a nice one in a while Lewand~

Roque showing real potential... eye for goal, pace, makes runs, physical, hunger...

Gundogan with a nice goal, but off injured now...

Alaves kinda suck though... but this performance better than we have in a while... maybe due to no more blackhole sucking up all our attacks? XD

Bro how are refs paid.

Roque gets 2nd yellow for jumping away from a challenge. Fixed shit

Pfft... Roque gets a second yellow now for a nothing accidental... just when hes picking up form... hope we can appeal or reduce the suspension? We cant get much luck atm...

Yea, one thing for sure, if it was Real player in that incident no ref would have dared sent him off

Tchouaméni got a card for a foul after the reff had blown for offside and they refuse to rescind it. There was two clear penalties that the referee literally laughed off. If it was Real Madrid smfh. It would probably have been a straight red if it was our player

We will surely appeal. This was some bullshit, not sure why VAR doesn't check 2nd yellows or did the ref refuse to look at the monitor???

Anyway Roque is a different type of striker than wooden Lewandisney, he can drop back more successfully but he is also a proper fox-in-the-box, defenders have a hard time seeing him coming as he weaves through the defensive structure. It helps that he is not very tall and harder to notice. And even despite being only 1,74m his headers are like bee stings.

Reminds me of Suarez, that finish last night and the header last time around were straight from the Suarez University of Finishing and Poaching.

The refs get more mention than the players this year! The refereeing is really bad and it’s for all teams. You two keep going on about Madrid, esp after the game against Almeria yet not a word from either of the two of you after out last game when the ref errors were against us.

Lewand is definitely unfairly criticised though, at least its gone too far But cules tend to do that, its always overreactions n black n white nothing in between Its like Busquets, ppl will only realize his qualities when hes gone, the same thing applies to Lewand. Hes aging n declined, but still a top player n much better than anything else we've got. If hes not there as a physical presence taking up n competing vs the opposition CBs, we wont have as much as up there. This was so evident when we played the likes of Guiu/Ferran or all the strikers last season up there. Lewand has some amazing qualities... I hope Roque is good consistently n continue to improve, we need him... but hes not gonna replace Lewand now... I hope he can perhaps play LW this season since we dont have one bar Cancelo whos often injured anyway
