Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

At this rate, Valverde isn't lasting to Christmas.

I'm sure they will pick up, playing the shyt teams, but this isn't looking particularly good, but then again they are playing Real, who are just a different level to everyone else, so you couldexcuse them, somewhat. Real play better football without C dot, but need his goals, more so in the big important games, against the well organized sides.

I don't know about the years to come, but Madrid is clearly better than them at this point.

Two of their subs are good enough to start for Bayern and Chelsea, Bale doesn't even look like a shoe in for the first XI and they can still beat most teams without Ronaldo. They have Isco,Kroos,Modric, Kovacevic for the midfield positions where Barca has Rakitic, Iniesta,Gomes, and at a stretch Sergi Roberto and that says it all.

Madrid looking unfukkitable

Brehs, i don't think either dembele or countinho can save this barca team. the whole barca team needs a restructuring.

I just don't see anyone stopping them again this year in the CL. In previous years you could say it was 1 of 3 who were definitely fave for the CL, but this year, Barca and Bayern look they look old, plus Neymar, Xabi and Lahm all moving on from those teams.

Kovacic is modrics successor

They won't because their midfield is trash and have not dealt with their fullbacks. Dembele is good but he would be replacing Neymar who was already top 3 at best and definitely top 5, see what he did when Messi got injured for a 2 or so months when he showed that he could step in. Unless Coutinho develops into a number 8 type midfielder who can replace Iniesta it will still expose them. What makes them look worse is that if Messi wasn't playing playing today how would they have lined up , put Defoleu and have a Suarez/Defoleu partnership backed by the midfield they have today

Barca fans gonna destroy Dembele if he doesn't get a hatrick in his first game

I saw an article written by a Bayern fan saying Real is what what Bayern should have been They trashed their original blueprint, moved to possession football when teams had already found that out and still have Robben/Ribery on their wings with no replacement in sight. Effectively trading Kroos for Xabi, refusing to pay Kroos money because they wanted to pay Goetze and then over-reliance on Lewandowski for goals. It looked so different in 2013.

The Heynckes team was it was the perfect blend of both styles, that rape and pillaging they did to Barca was then Pep came in and everything that goes with that. Kroos was a big loss, but that's the Bayern board, they don't allow anyone to try and dictate terms to them. And they did go over and beyond for Pep, which they wouldn't normally do for a coach, too make him happy, until they had enough of his bytching.
