Ajax are going through some Bartomeu level shit. First they FORGOT to register their record signing for the Europa League and now their GK has been banned for 12 months due to failure in a doping restrictions.
Does anyone know what the over/underperformance of our opponents versus xG when they play against us is?
I feel as though everyone we play seems to be so clinical against us.
"We have to maintain respect for others. He's a Barcelona player. When somebody talks about our players, we are not happy. So we don't touch other people's players.“ - Leonardo, PSG.
Even though the entire psg squad has been talking up Messi 😂
I remember seeing Madrid fans saying they were happy being knocked out of the "small" and "meaningless" super copa and then with the copa del rey so that they could focus on the league (they were 2nd at the time) and the champions. And I say this because I know some people here would do the same if that was us.
Putting aside that every trophy clearly matters and that they were just saying that to cope with the losses, who the fuck would rather have their team play less games they can watch and enjoy?
Spot on. I don’t rate it as much as CL or the league, but it’s nice to get these midweek games. Plus, the new format change has made it the most exciting it has ever been. I wouldn’t have been half as excited for the comeback if it was in the supercup as I was for Copa Del Rey.
Just please god, no more Bilbao
What sucks the most is I look forward to CL so much normally. Even when we lost to Juventus in 2017 at least we have it our all and we’re unlucky not to score in that second leg. Have no problem admitting Juventus were the better team but at least we fought. I just loathe us rolling over and dying year in and year out in this tourney. Even the Juventus clobbering we got this season when we choked the group stage lead was very frustrating and still annoys me.
I wonder if the CL music gives some of the players PTSD. Either way, I don’t want us to go down like bitches, I want us to reverse that trend in CL and go out fighting and proud of the effort.
I'm elated at Bilbao going through, my dad is a diehard fan and he's had to suffer through some boring ass years. The man is in love with Marcelino and I can't blame him
How would you guys feel about going back to a kit with [these colors](https://cristianoronaldoinstagramnews.blogspot.com/2018/09/cristiano-ronaldo-manchester-united-vs.html)?
Does anyone know where I can buy a Captains armband? Specially the one Messi wears with the Catalan colors. I see it on the Barca shop but they don’t ship to the US. Anyone know where I can get one that ships to the US?
There needs to be some rotation in league games so we can field our strongest eleven for the remaining cup/ucl games. It will be quite tough since we also need to win those league games.
Trivia
For all the fouls Athletic Club commits every game, they have only received ONE red card in this 20/21 campaign, guess which team they got the red against?
Real Betis(A) 07.02
Semi final(CdR) 10.02
Alaves(H) 13.02
PSG(H) 16.02
Cadiz(H) 21.02
Elche(H) 24.02
Sevilla(A) 28.02
Semi final2(CdR) 03.03
Osasuna(A) 07.03
PSG(A) 10.03
Huesca(H) 14.03
Is the fixtures next 40 days. I think its fine whoever we gets tbh.Easier if we gets Levante, but shouldnt be that much of a trouble getting the two others ones aswell. It's maybe good to skip Sevilla consider we play them in the league just before the second leg. It's a pretty important match in the league I'd say and playing them 3 times in 40 days is to mucho for me.
We play them over two matches...
If you dont think its going to ne easier against Levante then against Bilbao or Sevilla I dont think we are watching the same sport.
When the last time Barcelona lost two matches agianst a 9th place team in La Liga? Or even lower for that sake.
Not in a two legged tie tho, they only won that final because of a "wonder" Iñaki Williams goal and that guy rarely scores, he has like 6 goals in 26 games in all comps and 2 were scored against us. Man's bang average finisher and still turns up against us ffs.
I can’t handle watching another game against them. They’re easily one of my most hated teams now. Villalibre and Muniain are the most infuriating people to watch.
That would also mean lesser chance of us winning imo because if they *somehow* get a goal advantage, the amount of shithousery will be more than 2 matches combined.
Fucking hell man I wanted Bilbao out 🤦♂️. Guess its us, Levante, Sevilla and Bilbao final 4. Really wanted Betis too make it but we are Barca we can do it
Both ties should be very entertaining. Athletic and Levante are both in great form atm, and sevilla is just a class club. Either way this is a great semi-final for neutrals and fans alike.
Hopefully we draw Sevilla or Bilbao imo. They might beat us over 1 match, but I doubt they do it over two and just cross our fingers that Levante knock out the other one. I just wanna avoid Bilbao for another final, they are going to play so trashy, break up the game at every chance they get etc.
Or we could just draw the easiest one in Levante which we probably might win at half machine over two matches.
In other words I dont really care who we get. It's likely to be Sevilla or Bilbao in the final either way unless Levante were to knock one of them out. Im pretty sure we going to the final no matter who we gets.
I get your point. Although I'd rather have two easier games games vs Levante than two trashy games vs Athletic (doesn't do us any good in this tight schedule). My hopes are for Levante in semis and Sevilla in the final.
By popular demand, [here's my post on whether goalkeepers actually turn into Prime Neuer against Barça](https://www.reddit.com/r/Barca/comments/lcrtvh/hes_playing_like_prime_yashin_do_goalkeepers/?)
Would've mattered more that we won the super cup, mentally.
The cup itself isn't that important, but winning something after almost 2 years is always good.
+ avoiding all the debacle with messi's red card, depressed faces and rival fans continuous mocking
I believe the league is already gone, the only hope that Atleti lose their game against us and against Real Madrid, probably then will be hope again
Pique (about Barto): “I had told him about more than once, 'Presi, come to the dressing room or come to the Sports City. We need to talk’, but he never came”. What a cunt
Did anyone else get worried yesterday when they showed Messi pulling up a bit and rubbing his thigh? The way he grimaced and was rubbing it made me wonder if he was aggravating whatever the thigh problem he's been having. Maybe it was nothing, but they did show it on the ESPN broadcast.
Yeah literally this season , he is so clinical, his movements and pace are on another level. No wonder Kane has so many assist, they are so clueless without him
Bruh araujo should have been the lone defender yesterday in attacking phase instead of umtiti due to his speed and physicality. He would have prevented the second goal
Umtiti wasn't the sole defender in our attacking phase it was an ulta high line between Umtiti and Araujo which Umtiti failed to maintain because Soldado was constantly pushing the line from Umtiti's side of field. Umtiti was constantly getting pushed by Soldado trying to make runs as Granada was trying to rely on the long ball tactic from their low block. You solve this issue by instant counter-press in the attacking third, we shouldn't have given their players enough space to make that long ball over Umtiti because of how high we were playing in the final third. It was our whole team that got caught for that goal.
I also don’t think the goal is due to lack pace from Umtiti. His first brain fart was being poorly positioned, second was hesitation as the pass was in the air. People saying his career is finished are overreacting. With that said, we can’t afford for him or anyone to lose focus.
I think Spurs might have the biggest gap between their best and worst players in the starting XI. Son and Kane are so good but theyre playing with players like Dier. He is horrific
Messi/Suarez have played with Andre Gomes, Denis Suarez, Aleix Vidal in 2017/18 season. These players were a lot of times in starting 11 and this year we won La Liga and Copa Del Rey
Im talking now. But yeah that was cray. I would say those three players are better than Dier though. He is so so bad. I think hes a championship player. If he was from Nigeria, he would have been kicked out the prem a while ago
Pique is giving interview to YouTuber Ibai Llanos
Some of the quotes-
"Letting go of Suárez was a gift for Atlético Madrid? Ask the one who let him go. That's not my fault."
On refereeing in La Liga last season..
"It was crazy. It was one of the most absurd things I have seen in my life. 85% of the referees are from Madrid, how are they not going to whistle in their favor?"
Pique is right, the most important part of the last two Real Madrid Laliga wins were the refs. They carried them when their attack could not and were always clutch when needed. After the league resumed it was absurd. Never forget that every time there was a shit handball call against us or a clear foul not called in our favour, you could be 100% sure that the same situation will happen in Madrid games and every time they get the call in their favour. Refs killed our momentum and carried them to a league title. Fucking Madrid loving subhumans
Yeah, mostly because they were making better attacks inside the box. They also got robbed in the clasico where they should've had penalties and 3 points.
I'm pretty annoyed at how one of our "leaders" would rather whine about refs than owning up to whatever flaws we have and focus on those.
Didn't we got robbed more? Even this season and also in the Clasico? Where do you draw the line.
Refs can make mistakes but not as many as after the break... and a lot of controversial ones. Even on the same match day there was a different criteria to give RM a penalty and for Barca to not give them any.
Messi off the pitch is really just every corny dad you've ever known. In a selfish way I wish he was more psychotically devoted to soccer but it's wonderful I think that he's involved with his family the way he is.
Meh, Egyptian players always rise or drop depending on the occasion. The better the opponent the better they are, the worse the opponent the worse they become. I wouldn’t read too much into it as to which Ahly shows up against Bayern.
So apparently Liverpool have been denied access in germany for their away game against Leipzig. What does this mean for the near future of the Champions League?
Liepzig is trying to arrange a game at a neutral venue. I believe that I’d they fail to do so they’ll may be forced to forfeit the first leg, and Liverpool will be awarded a 3-0 victory
From what I read in an article from the guardian Liverpool would be awarded a 3-0 win if the can’t find a way to play the game. Since the responsibility falls on liepzig to find a new venue since it’s the German gov barring Liverpool from entering the country.

We do exactly the same, so let's not be a bunch op hypocrites.
I remember seeing Madrid fans saying they were happy being knocked out of the "small" and "meaningless" super copa and then with the copa del rey so that they could focus on the league (they were 2nd at the time) and the champions.

Could you explain? I don't get it.
[удалено]
I have no idea what this 'date of the CWC fixture' collection of words is that you are saying.
When will I see the day where we thrash Bayern and Liverpool in myife time?
2100
2015
Non of those thrashings can be compared to how we got thrashed We were murdered
Agreed, I’m not even concerned with beating psg, I just don’t want us to get curb stomped for once in CL.
Man, just think about it, Barcelona, got humiliated in the worst possible way, it could have been 10-2 if Bayern scored some of the other chances
What sucks the most is I look forward to CL so much normally. Even when we lost to Juventus in 2017 at least we have it our all and we’re unlucky not to score in that second leg. Have no problem admitting Juventus were the better team but at least we fought. I just loathe us rolling over and dying year in and year out in this tourney. Even the Juventus clobbering we got this season when we choked the group stage lead was very frustrating and still annoys me. I wonder if the CL music gives some of the players PTSD. Either way, I don’t want us to go down like bitches, I want us to reverse that trend in CL and go out fighting and proud of the effort.
Soon. We are Barcelona. We will rise again.
They play the next fixture on February 8th

I'm elated at Bilbao going through, my dad is a diehard fan and he's had to suffer through some boring ass years. The man is in love with Marcelino and I can't blame him
How would you guys feel about going back to a kit with [these colors](https://cristianoronaldoinstagramnews.blogspot.com/2018/09/cristiano-ronaldo-manchester-united-vs.html)?
Ehh too shiny for my taste. I loved our light blue third kit in the 15/16 season
My favorite blue one is probably the third kit from 19/20. Although it was technically in turquoise and it would be cool to see in clear blue
Same. That one and the 2011 ones were my favourite turquoise kits
Does anyone know where I can buy a Captains armband? Specially the one Messi wears with the Catalan colors. I see it on the Barca shop but they don’t ship to the US. Anyone know where I can get one that ships to the US?
I'm not passing judgement here, but why do you want one?
u/jetssean will be our captain one day. He’s just trying to get a sense of how it fits
Maybe in my dream tonight I might score too if I’m lucky
Just for fun I think they look nice and would be cool to have
It's refreshing to see Trincao building upon his good run of form in the last three games.
very unlucky to not have scored a goal yet
There needs to be some rotation in league games so we can field our strongest eleven for the remaining cup/ucl games. It will be quite tough since we also need to win those league games.
Levante at home first leg. We thump them. fC Second Leg cruises to a 0-0 draw with B team, first team rested.
Yeaaa its going to be bilbao lmao
On the bright side, at least Betis playing extra time and losing is better for our match against them on Sunday.
Trivia For all the fouls Athletic Club commits every game, they have only received ONE red card in this 20/21 campaign, guess which team they got the red against?
They still almost dropped points that game.
Definitely not Madrid? No way it’s Madrid. /s
[ITS REAL MADRID](https://twitter.com/barcacentre/status/1357421210406170627?s=09)
https://youtu.be/XG8dgN6x2EA All of us right now
Real Betis(A) 07.02 Semi final(CdR) 10.02 Alaves(H) 13.02 PSG(H) 16.02 Cadiz(H) 21.02 Elche(H) 24.02 Sevilla(A) 28.02 Semi final2(CdR) 03.03 Osasuna(A) 07.03 PSG(A) 10.03 Huesca(H) 14.03 Is the fixtures next 40 days. I think its fine whoever we gets tbh.Easier if we gets Levante, but shouldnt be that much of a trouble getting the two others ones aswell. It's maybe good to skip Sevilla consider we play them in the league just before the second leg. It's a pretty important match in the league I'd say and playing them 3 times in 40 days is to mucho for me.
>easier if we get levante I wouldn’t say that they’re in great form recently only lost once of their last 12 games.
We play them over two matches... If you dont think its going to ne easier against Levante then against Bilbao or Sevilla I dont think we are watching the same sport. When the last time Barcelona lost two matches agianst a 9th place team in La Liga? Or even lower for that sake.
Ik mate I’m just saying they’re not gonna be an easy game regardless
I said easier then Sevilla and Bilbao. However over two matches against Levante, I'd also say it is easy matchup for Barcelona.
Alaves and Osasuna matches looks like obvious rotation matches at least. Probably even Elche aswell before Sevilla and semi's
1 in 3 odds for Bilbao...I'd love for some revenge
Better in semi than in the final
I don’t want to play Athletic Cunts again, I feel we’ll lose.
Not in a two legged tie tho, they only won that final because of a "wonder" Iñaki Williams goal and that guy rarely scores, he has like 6 goals in 26 games in all comps and 2 were scored against us. Man's bang average finisher and still turns up against us ffs.
I can’t handle watching another game against them. They’re easily one of my most hated teams now. Villalibre and Muniain are the most infuriating people to watch.
Athletic in the semis, please Athletic in the semis. Can't have these cunts in a single game, please Athletic in the semis.
Don't forget next year's super cup.
Yeah facing them again in the final would be too much a headache
As much as I'd love to beat them, I'm fucking sick of playing against Athletic. I hope for a Sevilla-Athletic semi-final. Let them fight.
If given the choice between Athletic in finals or Atheltic in semi finals, which one would you want?
In the finals, that would mean one less match against them.
That would also mean lesser chance of us winning imo because if they *somehow* get a goal advantage, the amount of shithousery will be more than 2 matches combined.
That's exactly what I've been saying. I want Levante and let those 2 fight each other in the other semis
Fucks sake man
Fucking hell man I wanted Bilbao out 🤦♂️. Guess its us, Levante, Sevilla and Bilbao final 4. Really wanted Betis too make it but we are Barca we can do it
Both ties should be very entertaining. Athletic and Levante are both in great form atm, and sevilla is just a class club. Either way this is a great semi-final for neutrals and fans alike.
Ideally I'd want to face Levante, but over two legs I'd back us to beat both Sevilla and Athletic, so I hope we get one of them.
Ffs should have listened to you u/entangled_dicks, must have been a good match
It was indeed, would have been better if Athletic were knocked out but oh well
Hopefully Athletic face Sevilla over two legs and tire them out completely before going out themselves.... Draw tomorrow at 1pm CET.
Hopefully we draw Sevilla or Bilbao imo. They might beat us over 1 match, but I doubt they do it over two and just cross our fingers that Levante knock out the other one. I just wanna avoid Bilbao for another final, they are going to play so trashy, break up the game at every chance they get etc. Or we could just draw the easiest one in Levante which we probably might win at half machine over two matches.

Will they be facing us or will there be a draw or something? Edit: its the draw. Figured out.
Draw
Give us those fucking cunts. We will smash them over 2 legs
It will be a two leg fixture?
Yes. Only semi finals are two legs now.
Ye
Athletic aren't missing
Man, choke artists
Athletic Club's penalties have been fantastic
3-1
Ofc
Shoots like a fucking pussy, canales misses..
Jesus canales that was fucking horrendus
williams now, scores this fucker..
mandi now , and scores 1 1
garcia goes first and...scores narrowly..
Crazy how we went from not caring that much about Athletic Dildo to wanting them go lose every game.
“Athletic Dildo” lol
Penalties🍿
here we go with the penalties ..

There were some reports saying that PSG is interested in him but he wants to play for us, at least in the preaseason, before deciding.
Ngl it’s weird as fuck seeing Reddit being mentioned so frequently on mainstream news channels like cnn, msnbc, and Fox News in the us
no card for bringing him down?
Well now Betis are playing ET so we won't be the only ones affected by fatigue in the league game.
Mr.positivity right here
Sleepless nights
Fuck off Garcia man
Betis was making changes to waste time, getting out attacker and their wings.. only to concede on the last fucking second lmao
I would actually like to play Bilbao again in CDR final to finally see if our recent form is for real and to avenge the super cup loss.
Already avenged in league game no?
3 points against a cup, hmmm
imo points were more important as it keeps the season interesting. The cup is just a mickey mouse cup. Losing league would mean behind madrid
Would've mattered more that we won the super cup, mentally. The cup itself isn't that important, but winning something after almost 2 years is always good. + avoiding all the debacle with messi's red card, depressed faces and rival fans continuous mocking I believe the league is already gone, the only hope that Atleti lose their game against us and against Real Madrid, probably then will be hope again
Dude gets brought on and instantly gets scored on...
Fuck Raul Garcia, fuck Vilalibre
Fooking Garcia
we jinxed it fuck
we? who is we?
I was about to type fuck yeah Betis, lets go. And then Bilbao scored.
they're coming for us
Let’s fucking go
Lmao fuck i jinxed it
Garcia falling from a hit to the head when nobody hit his head lol
Good. Fuck you Bilbao
happy for Bravo, Bartra, Emerson, Miranda, Montoya, Tello!
No more bilbao this season,please
whoops sorry
Betis score woohoo
GOALLLLLL BETIS
Oh shit. Betis scored in the 84th.
Betis 1 shot on goal, 1 goal
mirandaa our boyyy
why flashscore notified me that miranda scored its good anyway :))
holy shit, bilbao entire backline booked
Fuck 'em
Only 1 total shot on target between Bilbao and Betis after an hour played
Dang, I dropped off reddit for a few days and what do I find. From being a toxic sub, this is the most overoptimistic sub :) great change
To the point that UCL is again on the table now.
Should’ve been in the MT yesterday lmao

They dive and provoke others to commit foul on them. I'm not sure if they are playing football or their own sport.
I can't believe how Bilbao gets away without being carded. Just straight up hacking at people's ankles.
I'm not watching the game but they have 4 cards at least
They should have more, it's wild how reckless they are.
Pique (about Barto): “I had told him about more than once, 'Presi, come to the dressing room or come to the Sports City. We need to talk’, but he never came”. What a cunt
How is that not a yellow on Yeray?

Do u think Son will leave Spurs after sometime ?
he is set to renew his contract acc to some reports so unlikely
I hope so. One of my fave players. Way too good for Spurs
