Champions League Round of 16 fixtures

Barca are not all that great defensively at all.
 
Barca will annihilate us, so let us hope someone does us a favor.
 
Barca not giving the ball back, cnuts
 
I get your point but tbf if you took those particular two players out of any team, imagine how much they'd struggle.

Nah, my point wasn't that they'd struggle. My point was that if Messi and Iniesta weren't in that team nobody would think it was anything more than a very efficient way to play - rather than an ideal to be aimed at.
 
We won't play like this against Barca though. For some reason after 2008 these tactics worked parking the bus and being content sitting back, we in the last 2 finals try to press them high.
 
after a while teams tend to figure it out. they've been running the same play for years now, it was never bound to last forever

Well my point is that if you took those two out of Barca, nobody would be watching them or talking about them because they'd be doing feck all.
