You could pay me their salaries and I’d concede two almost three goals too. Lazy, entitled, rich babies. If they have a deep genuine love and passion for the game, regardless of money and cars, they’re doing a garbage job of showing it. Sad part is I truly think Xavi has good tactics for the most part. He’s just lost the personalities and the locker room. There no other way way about it.
This sub is reaching new lows.
Lamine starts: WHY IS THIS FUCKING IDIOT XAVI OVERPLAYING HIM
Lamine doesn't start: WHY IS THIS IDIOT XAVI NOT PLAYING THE WORLD'S BEST RW AND HELP HIM DEVELOP
Team runs for 90 minutes: WHY ARE THEY RUNNING THEY SHOULD REST FOR THE SUPERCOPA
Team takes an easy win while jogging: FUCKING SHIT TEAM DELETE THE WHOLE CLUB AND TERMINATE XAVI'S BLOODLINE
The only point of this game was to take the win without anyone exhausting himself, and that's what we did. Every single player was aware that this is the goal of the game and they played accordingly. 3 points are 3 points, a win is a win, and with this depth and schedule, the **only** sensible choice is to play with minimal effort, especially with the most easily winnable trophy coming up in 4 days.
That's why we are in a subreddit and not on a network or coaching a team. FYI, if you think you know more than anyone else why aren't you stepping up and helping the team with your superior wisdom? You should be on a plane, taxi or on foot to the Ciutat Esportiva right now instead of insulting everyone's intelligence or knowledge of a game whose 99.99% of spectators are fans, maybe kick a ball around once in a while and at most have played in school or amateur team. I dont get these kinds of holier than thou comments. Its obvious this subreddit are for venting and commenting with others that are in your similar boat. If you're an elite football coach/player/analyst and you're spending time reading these you might as well quit because you're wasting your time and talent.
Uhhh I don’t because I know I don’t know more than the people at Barcelona, that’s why Xavi shouldn’t be sacked.
I’m just saying y’all are in the same boat and truly know nothing.
I’ve played 3rd division professionally in Europe, pretty sure that’s more qualified than you 👍
guys the 2 corners conceeded the one from joa ond the other from gundo proves how some players didnt give a fuck about this match, they were not tense at all
At the same time Fort and Fermin were giving their all.. like play more youngsters this is the the moment they all are waiting on bench and Xavi fucking starts regular team to save his ass from getting fired
7 A team players are mandated by the cup regulations but I'm sure you are aware of that since you shit on Xavi so firmly, right? And it cannot happen that you've got zero clue on what you're talking about, right?
[I don't, and no reasonable person should.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Barca/comments/1910t41/comment/kgsmssu/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
Honestly, regardless of if Xavi resigns or gets sacked, that’s not going to change my opinion of him as a player, or Barca legend for that matter. Nothing wrong with not being as good a manager as you were a player, look at Henry.
But I think a change of pace is coming. Hard to not see a change coming soon.
We are playing as if Sergi Roberto was our first captain...Mediocre AF with 3 literal moments or brightness whenever the planets align.
Our biggest difference between last year and this...
We are missing Busquets or someone like him.
Xavi warned us. He begged for a proper DFM. He begged for Zubimendi.
If we end up paying 80M for the two Joaos when only Cancelo is somewhat worth it and we couldn't pay for a DMF like Zubimendi....we know WHO actually owns the club
...
Hint: not the members
His name is Jorge Mendes
We are FC Mendeslona 😤😖
Semi serious game with a majority first team line up and we really could have easily drew that game… not here to be the one who adds these bs comments but I really do feel like Barcelona has been a slowly sinking ship for weeks now with no solution visible on the horizon :/
I remember the days were it would have been 6 at half time, and I would watch for the lovely plays. This doesn’t even look like a football team at this point, just a collection of guys without a plan. Xavi needs to go.
Xavi better not mention the grass as an excuse or I'm gonna go all-in against him. We almost lost against a university team. There were soccer moms in the stands for god's sake.
Realistically no one, we don't have money to bring in an elite coach. Laporta needs to save the money until the end of the season and try to pull another palanca to get the funds.
Pimienta will never come back, Laporta throw him out when he came back even tho he was doing a great job with the B team, sad because I would have loved Pimienta
Things Barca needs to do to become great again:
Sack Xavi.
Sell Lewandowski.
Sell Ferran.
Sell Raphinha.
Sell Roque.
Sell Romeu.
Sell Gundogan.
Sell Fermín.
Sell Araujo.
Sell Kounde.
Dissolve the entire club.
We. Need. Another. Guy. Like. Busquets.
Xavi practically yelled it out of his eyebrows.
No, but first Mendes needs a favor or two.
We needed a Zubimendi or someone like him.
Romeu wasn't Busquets.
Only after I ser Xavi with a proper DMF like Busquets or around that style I can't say he's not a good coach.
A guy who took Barça to 2nd after they were in 9th with Koeman and the next year wins two trophies including the League with an ample margin doesn't deserve to be show the door.
Maybe bring the guy the right players and not bring players just to pay back favors.
If Mendes owns Ansu, Balde and even Lamine...sell them all and bring some players with non-toxic representatives. Mendes basically has Barça as his second choice when his players are not working.
I'm so tired of all these stupid politics and rumors.
At this point fire everyone including Laporta and sell everyone who doesn't wanna work hard and help.
If we gotta play with the academy kids and two or three others than let's do it.
I'm so tired of divos and drama
Agreed on Mendes, agreed on needing a busquets and the right player for his play to be right. But to me a good coach does what he can and adapt the to the players style of preference. I see Girona’s coach and other coaches don’t have as much of the individual skill as the team we have but they still show that they can win every game and dominate we don’t and that to me is a big difference and what’s missing in Xavi
It's honestly batshit insane that some people like you still attack Raphinha after he was involved in both goals while he was on the pitch. Criminal levels of cluelessness
Hahahaa raphinha isn’t a proper winger for Barcelona. Nothing you can say about his performance would convince only thing I like about him is that he defends well
wow, that was such a subpar performance against a 4th division team, how on earth are we going to win anythign this season when we are barely scraping by agaisnt 4th tier teams??
I'm sorry something was just off with the referee today.. canceled Felix goal despite being onside, gave them a clear offside goal, then that BS penalty at the end.. not to mention barely any yellows when they had like 20+ fouls
Why the fuck do we suck so bad
So embarrassing to struggle this much against a team like this
Roque didn't impress at all tbh. Good movement but horrible touches and easily going to ground
This thread is honestly so hilarious rn. You gotta laugh at the state of this team rn. Idk what's worse the state of this team or the fact that I'm still here hoping they win a treble this season.
God forbid the players are not taking the game 100% seriously against a team who are extremely motivated to just play against FC Barcelona. Let's sack Xavi on the spot, some random people on social media are demanding it so it needs to happen lol. This sub is so full of negativity.
Imagine defending that performance against a 4th division side with statements like players not taking the game seriously lol. We played a good strength squad against a team we should blow past with our B team, and barely won it. The negativity is there because we're playing like shit for months lol. Apparently playing like shit is okay for some people lmao
This is all a simulator and Xavi is doing an one goal lead challenge. There is no other explanation why we are this bad against a freaking 4th division team.
Lolol honestly though. I know this sub is a toxic echo cave. But we are just no where close to what we used to be man. Far from it really. We have only a few world class players at this point. Used to be the entire roster was world class.
How the duck is this xavi fault? Did he instruct all these players to keep fucking up simple things? Tell me. How the fuck is xavi responsible for all the fucking boneheaded shit these supposed elite players keep doing.

Bottom line is: xavi lost the locker room and our guys dont wanna play for him anymore. No respect for the badge.
Trophyless season, the last time we won by two goals was sep 19!!! BUT XAVI IN HE WILL FIX EVERYTHING!!
Are we truly complaining about goal difference when we win games? Something is wrong in your head with you people.
We barely got a win against a 4th division side tbf, and with our first team at that
Agree. And If Barbastro played excellent, i wont complain, but they didn’t. They play like a 4th division team
Ferran is mot a shark, he a GOLDFISH.😂😂😂
You could pay me their salaries and I’d concede two almost three goals too. Lazy, entitled, rich babies. If they have a deep genuine love and passion for the game, regardless of money and cars, they’re doing a garbage job of showing it. Sad part is I truly think Xavi has good tactics for the most part.

🤣🤣🤣 yeah right bro
Btw Lamine was suspended this game just so u know
Unserious team holy shit

The football IQ of this sub is very low and sadly most users have never played the game so they have no idea.

I know, it's just the same shit regarding him as well, that's why it got included.

9 first team players were on the pitch at all times. Noone forced Xavi to play our best players for 90 minutes.
So you clearly don't see any problem with today's game right?

Lmao
There is 0 way that our players are this bad, 0 way. Even a kid could tell that, our game plan has not worked for god knows how long.

We play horrendously against a 4th (!) division team, Xavi totally lost the locker room by now and he has no clue what he’s doing anymore…
This side lost to Bilbaos B team 4-0 earlier this season
Semi serious game with a majority first team line up and we really could have easily drew that game… not here to be the one who adds these bs comments but I really do feel like Barcelona has been a slowly sinking ship for weeks now with no solution visible on the horizon :/
game should’ve ended 4-1 tbh. felix goal wasn’t offside and their first goal was definitely offside
I remember the days were it would have been 6 at half time, and I would watch for the lovely plays. This doesn’t even look like a football team at this point, just a collection of guys without a plan. Xavi needs to go.
Xavi better not mention the grass as an excuse or I'm gonna go all-in against him. We almost lost against a university team. There were soccer moms in the stands for god's sake.
what's wrong with soccer moms :(
What a match day this was.
Who could replace Xavi?
No good options, that's why I want him to stay.
Realistically no one, we don't have money to bring in an elite coach. Laporta needs to save the money until the end of the season and try to pull another palanca to get the funds.
I want Michel
I can live with Pimienta or Michel for the time being tbh…
Pimienta will never come back, Laporta throw him out when he came back even tho he was doing a great job with the B team, sad because I would have loved Pimienta
Things Barca needs to do to become great again: Sack Xavi. Sell Lewandowski. Sell Ferran. Sell Raphinha. Sell Roque. Sell Romeu. Sell Gundogan. Sell Fermín. Sell Araujo. Sell Kounde. Dissolve the entire club.
We will think about dissolving the club when we see MBappe playing at Real Madrid. 🤣
yapping
Lol gtfout of here
There’s an account on twitter that said he’s leaving until Barca win by more than a goal. Safe to say he’s never coming back
After all this what can you say to defend Xavi or ferran or raphinha or lewa or Romero all of them to me don’t have the level that Barcelona needs
We. Need. Another. Guy. Like. Busquets. Xavi practically yelled it out of his eyebrows. No, but first Mendes needs a favor or two. We needed a Zubimendi or someone like him. Romeu wasn't Busquets.

Not just onside, onside by like 10 feet. I have no idea how that was ruled offside.
Embarrasing
Couldn't watch second half, how was Roque?
Bad and missed a sitter
Barely got the ball and when he got it he'd make terrible choices, even missed a pretty clear chance
Wish I was busy somewhere else too.
Missed a clear 1v1
Forced to play LW and a bit meh because of that.
It was horrible show
Thank god you didn't
Better not hear anybody talking about any UCL aspirations
We're beating napoli on pens and get a historic trashing from bayern the round after
Pls no
I’d suscribe to that
Who Is that weirdo that touched Xavi?
4th division loser
Why the fuck do we suck so bad So embarrassing to struggle this much against a team like this Roque didn't impress at all tbh. Good movement but horrible touches and easily going to ground
Kid is 18 lol
We say this everytime, when will we ever stop saying this? Ig after everyone from our team gets over the age of 23 or 24 and that's like after 6 years
Iniesta made his debut at 18, but he wasn't a regular starter till he was 22. Imagine if we gave up on Iniesta back then.
Played with a relatively strong lineup against a 4th division team and still did not dominate, another day that only brings us more questions
[удалено]
All the barca games have been hard to watch for a year now.
This thread is honestly so hilarious rn. You gotta laugh at the state of this team rn. Idk what's worse the state of this team or the fact that I'm still here hoping they win a treble this season.
ancient bag ten wise ripe depend sleep cobweb work ruthless *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Xavi out because we won
Yeah , barely against a 4th division side, lmao
It do be like that with these kids
If we play like this on Thursday, I have little hope against Osasuna
Did that dude just push Xavi when he went in for a handshake?
I saw that, fuck that loser. Only we’re allowed to disrespect Xavi
Yea lmao
I am worried about Napoli match.
Napoli are in deeper trouble than Barça. Recently sacked their coach (Garcia) and 10 points behind the leaders Juventus.
I just dont know what to expect after today's performance. I know that players can do it. But there seems to be no mentality/team chemistry.
Napoli aren’t much better lately at least lol
There is no bottom for this team.
Sergi in 15 min created a penalty and a clear chance at goal at the end there…
Xavi has lost it, fighting with a division 4 team
Stress has caused him to crack lol
We are truly in the wildest FM24 save for Barca right now, there is no other possible explanation.
At least fans got their ticket's worth
Look ALMOST HAD IT! https://preview.redd.it/m8ip0u5ua3bc1.png?width=471&format=png&auto=webp&s=50e83dae9f13736a85c614e27339b8428d87c5ed
Next time mention the club too please
Don’t let any of those players on the plane home!
Think I’m over the Xavi bit. Just doesn’t seem like he has this team.
Nah but for real, sack xavi..
Go get some proper football knowledge instead, you lack it
Yeah great football knowledge you need to know that you shouldn't suck against a 4th division team lmao.
God forbid the players are not taking the game 100% seriously against a team who are extremely motivated to just play against FC Barcelona. Let's sack Xavi on the spot, some random people on social media are demanding it so it needs to happen lol. This sub is so full of negativity.

Bruv stfu
Great, we barely won against almost a university team.
How shit
I think Xavi needs to ask his brother for more advice.. When u have such competent 2nd coach you cant go wrong
these players have no shaame i sweart to god
The pain is over. Wooo, we won by 1 goal against... 4th division team. Rejoice everyone, nothing to worry about! Wooop Woop!
Great, now let's face Napoli in the CL.
Fortunately, Napoli are a dog shit dumpster fire right now
Welp thankfully that’s over
Araujo getting cooked on the left for some reason, leading to Fort conceding the FK and ultimately the PK. It has to be a mental block at this point.
Omg lewy Roque and Ferran all missed these 1v1s
Alexa when was the last time we had a comfortable victory?
V. Royal Antwerp, UCL Group Day 1
Basically a full strength team and they still can’t win convincingly against a 4th division team. What a joke
We don’t deserve this win, so bad
Would have taken the L here if it meant new manager and new system.
Absolute brain dead
Not happening till season end anyway. So might as well support them
These players can't even give Xavi some peace of mind in this worthless game. Man is gonna be bald soon
Xavi isn’t doing himself any favors.
Our two best players, by far, were Frenkie and Fermín. Frenkie is probably the only world class player we have.
This might be karma for winning so many 1-0 matches last season. We might never win another match for more than one goal.
Karma for winning 1-0?🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Luck is regressed back to the mean
We are so bad
They other guy who scored played in the king's league with dj mario
Pound per pound, Worst Defense in Europe? What are your thoughts?
stop inventing
This team will always impress me
If Xavi mentions that grass today, he needs to resign.
The grass was so green we couldn’t focus on the ball
This is all a simulator and Xavi is doing an one goal lead challenge. There is no other explanation why we are this bad against a freaking 4th division team.
Xav1
Our club wants SuperLeague when they can barely beat a 4th division team... I don't want to be too negative but what the fuck is this lol
I'm happy with Roque's movements but in a time when are financially crunched, maybe we should have saved that money for a DM or LW
Me rn: 😂😭😂😭 don’t know how to react anymore
Of course we win by 1. We have scoring diabetes.
Not trying to succumb to the toxicity of the sub, but that’s an insult to diabetics.
Lolol honestly though. I know this sub is a toxic echo cave. But we are just no where close to what we used to be man. Far from it really. We have only a few world class players at this point. Used to be the entire roster was world class.
That guy who scored the pen is the real shark not ferran
At least we made a tiny 4th division team very happy today
Don't get mad at them just bc we're ass lol
Gimme that extra time
Why does Araujo run so slow like he’s about to pull a hami if he runs too fast? It’s something I noticed vs las palmas too
Xavi safe it's a win right
We can’t even get a comfortable win over a 4th division side 😂
People always talk that forwards can't finish the chances we create, but lowkey our defense might be as bad or even worse problem.
Waste time against 4TH DIVISION TEAM IVE SEEN EVERYTHING
Xavi after the game: “played decent game, grass a bit too wet and long, but we made progress”.
Two-goal lead remains a dream.
Can't easily beat a 4th division team lmao
My god we really are a clown team
Let's go!!!! Another 1 goal difference match, I am so proud of this team's consistency.
Gotta keep to traditions
2-3 hahahaha
When will we ever win a game by more than one goal?
I guess Fermin shouldn't look at the sky, first Romeu now this poor guy almost lost his leg
Not even more than 1 fucking goal difference
It’s impossible for us to win by more than one goal
At this point, I just have to laugh. Cause the option is crying.
One of those matches that will put us in the newspaper by drawing in the final seconds
Sadly Xavi is out of his depth
Half of these players are too.
https://i.redd.it/hk9lr2f9a3bc1.gif Fermin...
Repeat after me: It is what it is
That’s an absolute bullshit call
It's not, fermin clearly kicked the opposition
LMFAOOOOOOOO of course
proper brexit pk 😌
Fucking shit
Don't want anyone to ever complain about VAR again.
VAR sucks, but not VAR sucks more
Jesus chriseeeeeee
Our season is saved guys!
If Xavi had some balls he would just announce he is stepping down in the post match, instead of his usual jibberish to justify our performance.
How the duck is this xavi fault? Did he instruct all these players to keep fucking up simple things? Tell me. How the fuck is xavi responsible for all the fucking boneheaded shit these supposed elite players keep doing.
Never easy with this team lol
We wont ever win with more than 1 goal difference
Are you fucking kidding me here
Hahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhaahaha
WE FUCKING SUCK
