The whole team has been awful. There isn't a single Barca player who deserves praise for this match.

Yes he has but the reliance on Messi tonight, and all season, to be deep lying playmaker, number 10 and goalscorer is ludicrous and yet that's, apparently, what constitutes as being a tactical setup. It's an impossible position.

Dunphy is preparing his eulogy for tomorrow night

Rabiot my man of the match. Fantastic replacement for Motta tonight, been everywhere and given Barca nothing.

Lots of worthy PSG contenders though to be fair.

GavRedKing

Thats a shocking miss. If hes braver he scores.

Didn't he have a eulogy for Messi planned in the last round which was thwarted by a strong Messi performance? He might dust that off.

Lukker-

He's been as bad as anyone imo. Lost the ball a fair few times with no attempt to win it back.

Dirty Dingus McGee

Kimpembe has been pure class.Looks like he'll be a great player in the future.

I'm not saying he hasn't but look at what he's asked to do and the structure he must do it in and ask yourself if that's actually possible at this level? It's a joke.

Psg have a ridiculous amount of depth.

His ability on the ball is not what they really needed tonight. They needed him to try, to fight and to generally give the impression he cares about the result. He hasn't done any of that.

Only neymar really looked at it for barca. Messi has been cack by his standards.

Mr.Nice Guy

Rabiot...

Hate seeing that carry on.

Neymar the only Barca player that has been anyway decent tonight.

PSG the much hungrier team tonight. Have pressed high and with great urgency and barca haven't had time to settle at all. Barca just at sixes and sevens at the back tonight and have been completely overran in midfield.

No point arguing this because I don't know what your perception of fight is where it relates to football. He's constantly gotten on the ball, he's tried to dribble at people because he has no other options, he's never shirked his responsibilities and, like all season, he's tried to save this team from itself. PSG have just been too good to let that happen. Anyone actually blaming Messi rather than Enrique for one of the most disjointed and irrational CL knockout round performances ever is clearly having a laugh.

Be interesting to see how far or how little Messi covered tonight. Less than 7km I'd say

I'd say he covered that distance too when he demolished Bayern Munich a couple of years ago....

5km when Barca had possession. 100 metres when PSG had it.

Mr.Nice Guy

What an epic win that was. Absolutely huge result for Emery.

I'd say 6 or just slightly above it.

SlickRic

If you think Messi's role is to run around after the ball and 'look' interested, you've obviously never seen the lad play.

What has that got to do with tonights match?

He was poor although not as bad as Suarez was tonight.

The team of barca's next manager lose 1-0.

Yeah, It's awful.I mean you never see any diving in any of the domestic competitions in Europe.

Aye he was awful tonight, but people looking for him to "run around a bit" are a bit silly here.

Dortmund should've had it wrapped first half by all accounts.

Feel like we'll see this used for a long time.

Id say he could be out of a job soon enough too. Lost to bottom of the table at the weekend and have constantly thrown away leads all season. Miles off Bayern who haven't been their usual force this year.
