Yeah. Transition is never easy in football and they've been in one since Pep left. They are very expansive and quick on the counter - they look more vertical than before. Under Pep, they'd overload one part of the pitch and then switch it very quickly. Xavi was perfect for that.

Messi is out there putting on a clinic, Barca look VERY strong right now.


That was the first observation I had watching them this year...Tata was too slow IMO, and would go for the long ball a little too much. Last year teams would play high pressure on them and they would be very uneasy, but this year with signings like Rakitic who LOVES high pressure, etc. they're easily able to counter.

Game should be 3-0 if it weren't for the post :snoop:
