People don't want Coutinho...

 

2 goals 1 assist

They'd be way better served selling Messi and keeping Coutinho. What an absolute fucking clown Eric Abidal is. Took some going to pip our transfer policy around the Carroll time but yeah, Barcelona have performed the worst pound-for-pound football business in the all-time history of football.

Yeah, was thinking the same.

 

Defence and midfield are utter shite, and the two forwards are in their thirties.

 

They've spent hundreds of millions on total shite.

Both Spanish clubs have been shown that slow midfielders might be OK in la liga but they'll get exposed at the very top level

Spending and hoping for quality is easy, as Man City have proven.

 

Spending on unknown players you know to be quality is a much harder skill.

They've been exposed in La Liga as well. Barcelona got 82 points this year, conceded 38, and lost six games. Bailed out by ter Stegen, Suarez and Messi all year as well.

These haven't been a team of a generation in a good few years. 

As they arrived at Anfield, they'd sealed the league title days earlier, were in the Copa Del Rey final and had a 3-goal lead against an undermanned Liverpool. They even had the luxury of resting their entire first XI in preparation for that semifinal. 

 

What happened that night shouldn't distract from the fact they were considered hot favorites for the treble all of a year ago.

I like Barcelona as a place and even as a club (!) but they’ve become like Guardiola - a bunch of little entitled bitches, who piss & moan every time somebody has the balls to stand up to them, a set of bully’s but a complete bunch of sissy’s.

Well that was rather pleasing, especially following on from Leipzig's victory last night. Barcelona may be shite but you have to give Bayern a lot of credit as they look the best team in the competition playing under these circumstances. 26 shots to 8 and 13 to 5 on target says it all. They also had 55 % of the possession.Vidal and Alaba deserved to be on the back end of an embarrassing humping, the Spanish media will crucify them and rightly so. They'll be looking for a new manager as of tomorrow no doubt and linked to about 7 top players, hopefully end up pushing prices up for players City, Chelsea and the Mancs are interested in. 

 

Hopefully Lyon can cause an upset tomorrow evening, if not I hope they kick the shit out of those City wankers.
