What's Ter Stegen at there? Far too easily in at the front post.

Andersonisgod · 14-02-2017 10:16PM

See that press? See how hilariously disjointed and ineffective it was? Time for Lucho to go. A proper possession orientated coach doesn't let that happen. A team with real shape and tactical understanding of how to defend the turnover don't let that happen. Welcome back to 2008, let's now see if Barcelona are as brave and have the same conviction as they did in 2009.

Zidane will be rubbing his hands with glee.
Good performance by psg but that's their final.

He was gone himself anyway.

And rightly so.

This is as inept a setup against a pacy, tricky counter attacking unit as you'll see. He's left legends like Iniesta out to dry.

martyos121 · 14-02-2017 10:17PM

Enrique's face really tells a story, looks absolutely baffled.

Lucas Hood · 14-02-2017 10:17PM

Hopefully they don't get an away goal before it's over .

Some performance by PSG.

It was very, very sad to watch Iniesta try and track Meunier back there.

The 2nd Di Maria goal was pathetic from him. Sure he's been on the other end of enough of these scorelines so hard to feel too bad for him

user2011 · 14-02-2017 10:17PM

Psg have found the force..

GreNoLi · 14-02-2017 10:17PM

Ref has been good as well.

14-02-2017 10:17PM

Did TV3 just say "lovely little dive"
Clowns

Mr.Nice Guy · 14-02-2017 10:17PM

Bet the other Barca players wish they could hide their faces like Rafinha.

Rezident · 14-02-2017 10:18PM

The Champions league would be great if it wasn't for all the diving, I find it hard to take it seriously anymore.

Diabhal Beag · 14-02-2017 10:19PM

They could easily hit Barca for 6

Jelle1880 · 14-02-2017 10:19PM

Barca should just unplug the PS4 now.

You'd think Pique would be able to time his run better for offside there. He ran with Cavani for ages

6 back against 2 psg players and they kept backing off. Shambolic stuff.
Backing off for the 3rd goal too.

GavRedKing · 14-02-2017 10:19PM

Emery has transformed PSG to nearly rans in Europe to genuine contenders it seems but barca tonight have been abysmal and it could easily be 6 or 7 to PSG.

Where is the midfield?

It's there. It's just they're doing nothing as a unit.

I don't know but then I've not put a lot of thought into it. Off the top of my head it'd be Sampaoli or Tuchel but a good board has contingency plans, it has ideas of how a club (and first team) should be shaped.

Tuchel has been bamboozled by low block opposition in the BL, teams have worked out how to stop BVB and his side seems to be uncertain how to deal with it, okay that won't matter a lot of the time at Barca but it suggests he isn't the uber coach in waiting

GreNoLi · 14-02-2017 10:20PM

In the end a Qatari owner wins.

Andersonisgod · 14-02-2017 10:20PM

I feel legitimately awful for Messi. He's trying to run past players, he's trying to make things happen, he's trying to bail out this hilariously disjointed team like he has all season but, at this level, 1 man can't overcome such odds. He deserves better, a lot of his teammates do too.

~Rebel~ · 14-02-2017 10:21PM

agh, better decision making from Draxler there and it's 5.
Barca truly rubbish, just getting cut open.

14-02-2017 10:22PM

Not a mention of how ****e Messi has been tonight
Trying my arse, he's been outplayed and so easily dispossessed

Flint Fredstone · 14-02-2017 10:22PM

Get another one just to be sure.

His teams at least have structure, they have an understanding of how he wants to defend (even if it doesn't always work). The low block is a problem but at Barcelona he would have better players.

Without becoming melodramatic he and Sampaoli are the choices of my head. Xavi Hernandez is the choice of my heart.

user2011 · 14-02-2017 10:22PM

If I had my betting roots, I'd be in the money tonight. But a last one swallow doesnt make a summer lol.

GreNoLi · 14-02-2017 10:22PM

Messi has been ****e tonight.

Messi has been as bad as anyone tonight.

Ronaldo at home right now working out where he wants to put his next Ballon d'Or award.
