We no longer park the bus against Barca. We pressure them in their own half immediately and initially play a high defensive line. If the pressure with our forwards is breached, the defensive line needs to drop quickly back while the midfield delays their progress... requires a lot of speed.

In the supercup, possession was close to 50/50 between Madrid and Barca. We're aiming to get 40% at a minimum.

Very different with how other teams play Barca... we're not looking to survive. We're looking to beat them.

Something I noticed about Milan was how narrow they where. Gave Barca problems in midfield as a result, especially since Messi didn't drop very deep.

It's funny because usually that would mean Alves would have a good game but Zambrotta did a decent job keeping him at bay.

Barcelona's clearest weaknesses are :

1) Lack of pace in the back line (Something Milan tried to exploit by playing short goal kicks to get them to press higher)

2) Set pieces (Duh lol)
