So Barcelona are going to have a rough ride after Messi too right? It’s not just us?
Champions League Knockouts (12 Aug - 23rd Aug)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Sure, want Flickk on top for free?
Agree. They’re going to get a huge hangover soon, unless they really find a young manager that can develop a young team on a tighter budget that is the norm down there.
That said, I cannot imagine the big Catalan banks ever denying Barsa a good line of credit.
As amazing as he is, I think him walking straight into a team of peak players is helping him be even better.
I don't know if it's a coincidence but every team who has a teenager who hits world class level immediately seem to come into a team of that profile, aswell as him you've got Cesc, Rooney at United, Trent, United's CO92, Messi, Varane, Kimmich examples of the top of my head.
If Foden actually gets David Silva's minutes next season he could be next.
It seems people can't praise a player without putting one of ours down.
All roads leads to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. It's all his fault that Bayern are beating Barcelona 5-2.
How? It's true though. Not every full back out there are Davies, Trent & Robertson. Majority others which those called attacking full backs are nothing special what they offer. Cancelo & Semedo good example.
The problem is Xavi and Iniesta moved on.
He’s been the direct fault of two goals and a fantastic chance due to his own bad decision making though.
The benefits of having 17 reserve teams below you in the Bundesliga.
if they continue with their current transfer strategy, it is looking that way.
A red card for him would just finish the evening off nicely.
Is Coutinho on loan?
Sule is a unit.
An Alba red card would be the cherry on top now. He is such a cockwart.
Why would Thiago want to leave this team?
Pretty sure that poster was kidding. But I get it..Davies is priceless. We are super jealous though!
Yes, I’m incredibly bitter about 2009 and 2011 so, yes, I’m enjoying the Polanski dwarf and his boys getting tonked...
Vidal has looked pretty washed up tonight
True, you know it's only a matter of time.
Can Davies actually defend?? That’s the question!
For sure. Pique could have stepped out and De Jong could have tracked his runner for that last goal though!
He's underappreciated. And also underpaid. Quite similar to Kroos.
Imagine Coutinho scoring 
Coutinho on. They are just taking the piss out of Barca. It’s pretty great.
How can Coutinho play against his parent club?!
they really dont mess around.
Why isn't Coutinho ineligible for this game?
I'm surprised Coutinho is allowed to play against Barca. Doesn't usually happen, does it?
Think it was quoted that he wanted a new challenege somewhere else?
Think Muller has been great.
Midfield look tired and old, and Barcelona have gone and brought in Pjanic.
Whoever has been in charge of their recruitment for the last 5 years has set the club back massively. Really poor job.

He really is.
Bayern’s pressing is incredibly impressive
How can Coutinho play against his parent club?!
Wondering the same thing. Never seen that happen before.
Has greizman actually touched the ball since he came on?? Shocking!
How can Coutinho play against his parent club?!
'Parent club' is pretty much a PL concept.
Might not remember Griezemann's career but I'll remember he was fecking rubbish tonight.
Oh Bayern you troll
Even the ref is moaning at Barca.
Not sure it is the same in european competitions or it is up to the loaning club.
