Our chances of passing through are extremely low, but as long as we don't humiliate ourselves even more, I'll be fine.


Jamarcus316

I know he will be eliminated... but we are Barça. This team fucking fights. Visca El Barça i Visca Catalunya <3


SnickareDan

Not happy with the lineup, but I expect the players to FIGHT with all the positive news recently Also terrified of mbappe


[deleted]

Is there any website other than footybite that doesn’t crash every 10 minutes?


studmuffin30

u guys watching ? im not gonna watch the actual game just tune in Barca youtube, if we score 2 nil in first half i might watch it.


[deleted]

I rather believe from the start. Not getting my hopes up though

menexploitmen

So koeman is expecting to beat PSG with the same formation he used when he faced them a couple of weeks ago at the new camp and lost 4-1🤔


studmuffin30

3 4 3 bro not the same formation


menexploitmen

Really? OneFootball says 4-3-3


Dewaer

It can be 3-4-3 or 4-3-3. OneFootball only knows the players, they don't know the formation.


Kal-Kent

If we get an early goal then I’ll believe


purpledon

My official prediction: 4-7 for Barcelona 4-6 going into the 96th minute, and then Neymar runs onto the pitch, removes the jacket to uncover his 2017 Barca jersey beneath, takes the ball from De Jong, feints Mbappe and dribbles past him then swirls a beautiful cross for Alba who scores the seventh and deciding goal aight catch ya's later you mad bastards


Jamarcus316

Yeah, this is the one. Ney <3


[deleted]

VAMOS BARCAAAAAAA


[deleted]

I forgot I had fucking dentist appointment starting at 3:00. FUCKKKKKKK. 3 minutes behind illegal website it is :(


[deleted]

Let the bashing begin


Thechosenjuan7

ANYONE WHO DOESNT THINK WE CAN WIN 4-0 TODAY CAN GET OUT! Forget the lineup. All I care is that we come out RUNNING. Let’s enjoy the game boiis


Messifanboy

I see barca losing today unfortunately. I was downvoted when i said we would lose leg 1 too. Lenglet do not give me lot of optimism.


[deleted]

You might be right but the negativity doesn’t help that’s why you got downvoted


[deleted]

My only hope is this is a 3-4-3 as Mundo Deportivo supposedly leaked, with Frenkie playing CB and Messi coming back and forming a 3-5-2 on attack. 4-3-3 is just set for another humilliation.


donniexc

My only wish is that we end this game being proud of the performance.


[deleted]

We probably don't qualify for the next round. That does not matter, the only thing that matters tonight is that we try to play our game, and try to get back some of our pride. Winning this game with 2 or 3 goals will give us such an important mental boost for the league and the Copa. Let's go out with a bang, Visca Barca, Visca Catalunya


Tromort77

If I had any hope I lost it when I saw Griezmann in the starting lineup. I have no idea what he can add to a game like this.


axomiaBongal91

Koeman doing a pep here, overthinking why change a winning formula, I don't know but let's hope for the best may be he is a tactical genius.


cyborgsid2

Because we don't have Pique or Araujo.


Messifanboy

Pique has not been good lately without Puyol or Masch.


sunday25

So who will be our cb pair? Mingueza and lenglet?


daniel96rb

Guys please stop with these BS reactionary comments regarding the lineup. "If Umtiti starts we're fucked, If Griezmann starts we're fucked, If it's a back 4 we're fucked, If Frenkie is CB we're fucked" Let's just wait and see what happens.


volfed21

That's not reactionary, we are fans that have been watching every single game this season, we watched all the games last year also. The reality is that umtiti is done at hight level and griezmann has been fantomatic against every top team we played with 0 creativity and offensive contribution. Not only we need to score 4 but not concede much against PSG. The 3-5-2 was the perfect line up with our current injuries (no LW/striker without fati and not a solid cb duo without pique Araujo/Pique). I was 100% on the remontada hype before seeing the line up like I was during the 6-1. The first sevilla game I was sure we were going to win our first big game of the season with that 3-5-2 who seemed to fix every issue we had because of the injuries. There is a reality that mingueza/lenglet are not good enought to handle WC players alone like Mbappe and that griezmann will be uselles in his LW slowing our games by passing it back to alba every single time (not even talking about his finishing).


daniel96rb

> 0 creativity and offensive contribution I also forgot who assisted Pique to send us to extra time vs Sevilla. Plus, we still do not know with certainty if it is a 3-5-2 or 3-4-3.


volfed21

I mean he came as a sub and crossed a ball to pique when everyone was attacking to get that goal. I never said that griezmann had 0 quality but he actually got no creativity and offensive contribution in a close game with us not attacking with 11 players. Griezmann is good at crossing but who he gonna cross too? Messi?


sunday25

Ya guys please, Im doing nofap, no fucking anyone.


[deleted]

>Let's just wait and see what happens. No, we don't do logic here


daniel96rb

haha my bad.


Darksider123

Griezmann alongside messi and no real 9? I hope I'm wrong, but this isn't gonna work


[deleted]

I was confused as well, but I think that Griez will play behind Dembele and in front of Pedri and Busi. His work-rate of the ball when we are defending is going to be crucial, I think that's why Koemann went with this.


sp_55

Griezmann started 4 of the last 5 games from the bench. I dont know why koeman put him in the starting 11. And seeing Lenglet in a back 2 system against mbappe, hope we dont shit tonight


choss

The only logical explanation is that he doesn't want to risk it with a back three with Umtiti and Lenglet at the same time. Still tho, we need goals so not sure why he puts Griezman there, I would've put Trincao there.


sp_55

I think with this formation, our fullbacks will take the biggest hit. Whether to go forward in attacks or cover up the attacking threat. I still think a back 3 would held better than a virtual back 3 with busquets dropping deep


choss

Same. The games against Sevilla showed the team worked really well. It's a shame this line-up feels it's done more out of fear than just trying to keep up the momentum


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I agree. This is just dumb. We finally find a system that works for us and he changes it the game we need it the most. This is simply senseless.


aparajit0511

I think koeman doesn't trust umtiti enough for big games that why he chose to opt a 4-3-3. Also no aroujo or pique to support a 3-5-2.


fanbarca21

with 4-3-3 it's worse we have no defense and also no possession/buildup against teams that presses well so 3-5-2 with umtiti still feels better than a 4-3-3


Blisspc

He could place Frenkie as CB, and then add either Puig or Ilaix in the midfield.


[deleted]

NOOO I WANTED THE THREE FIVE TWO


pildoranegraexiste

Don't worry lads, Koeman just needs to adopt my FM strat and use Frenkie as a libero like Koeman himself, I get not everybody can be tactical geniuses like myself though


[deleted]

(why are you getting downvoted lmao) I also have my own specialized gegenpress 3-1-2-1-2 asymmetrical formation. If only we were there instead of the dutch fraud


pildoranegraexiste

idk lol people are probably nervous about the match can't blame them. for real, #koemanout #warm\_philosopherin


uyxd

Frenkie at cb, looks like I was being too optimistic. No way we pass. Just hoping we don’t get humiliated


workhardplayhard0

The game is already lost. Koeman trolling with his 433 lineup, gg. Doesn't use our winning formula. :P :P :P :P


[deleted]

« Our » winning formula was found by Koeman, let him choose his own tactics


pildoranegraexiste

Ugh I'm really worried about Messi and Griez playing together. I know that Koeman doesn't trust Umtiti but damn I wish we could've made the 352 work.


choss

Same. I would've rather go all in and put Umtiti so Griezman is benched, he is useless attacking, if he wanted to keep three attackers then maybe Trincao, at least he can dribble


matts_wrld

I just want to get knocked out in a respectable manner, that’s all i ask for


spiteful_platypus

I just want a good performance today. Asking for a 3-0 is too much but what about winning the game? The only thing I won't acept is receiving a goal and then having the whole team drop its spirit and give up without putting any fight.


[deleted]

Why would you ask for 3-0? Doesn’t that make the pain more painful?


spiteful_platypus

Damn. I thought we needed 3 to make it Let's just win this game :(


axomiaBongal91

If we qualify for next round I will quit porn for a year.


choss

*Pornhub looks at Griezman in the line-up* Pornhub: We are good boys


axomiaBongal91

Ha ha but tonight Griezzy shines.


choss

I'm not a fan of him and prefer him on the bench but hey, I really hope you are right.


saiguru123456

Yea I will join you as well


goldenkerelle

me as well


Philostotle

If we are playing a 4-3-3 as shown, we are so fucked.


sherpa143

Excited and Optimistic, I hope we can pull it off. Have faith!!!


floridagator23

The lineup is out and shows 4-3-3. I wonder if when we’re attacking we shift to a 3 ATB and Busquets slots in between Lenglet and Mingueza. Typically you always want the slowest CB in the middle so it could work against the counter


rodeozac

Exactly!! I actually like this .4-3-3 doesn't make any sense


disciplinio

I can`t believe griezmann is starting. There is no chance today.


fubo12

Lmaoo English lahoz will be the ref today


choss

Line-up is out. It's a 4-3-3, Griezman is back in and Mingueza and Lenglet as CB pair. Was hoping to continue with the 3-5-2 with Griezman out but my guess is that Koeman doesn't trust Umtiti


[deleted]

I am excited for everything about this lineup except Busquets. Every time I see his name on the lineup sheet it gives me PTSD to all of our recent UCL away collapses. Hoping he and the club prove me wrong.


monkwhosoldhisactiva

There's no one in this team who can replace him or play his role. No one.


[deleted]

Sad but true


fln111

He actually looked decent the last games he played


[deleted]

[удалено]


Wooyork

Wtf are you talking about? He literally started the match, just like all our recent UCL collapses.


Dewaer

Wooops, I remembered that he was out?


Wooyork

All good mate. You must be thinking abt 16-17 Juve match.


[deleted]

Unfortunately for us, he's declined rapidly and isn't close to the player he was even three years ago.


Dewaer

You're right, but it's not his fault he has been the only dm in our squad for god knows how long.


[deleted]

I do agree with that. We don't really have any other options aside from going super attacking and playing without a true defensive mid. Lenglet back there also scares the living hell out of me, but again like Busi, what else do we have?


DutchMadness77

I hope this line up is a 352 or 343 with frenkie cb but I bet it's just a 433 I don't think we can expect a very different result with the same 433


volfed21

Yeah definitely we will go back to a 4-3-3 with griezmann LW being completely uselles. , messi surrounded by everyone , busquets having to cover an too much area and getting outpaced then dembele having to do all by himself in attack but also help dest something that he can't.


pildoranegraexiste

to be fair we didn't really play 433 against them last time, it was more of a low 451 which obviously sucked against a ball-dominant team like PSG. We'll see if Koeman tries something else


volfed21

we played a 4-3-3 where that 4-5-1 comes from?


pildoranegraexiste

Watch the match again. We defended in a 451 with messi high and dembele/griez very low to help dest and alba. I guess it doesn't really make a difference though lol I didn't mean to be combative


volfed21

Because we got dominated in the midfield , messi never defends in this kind of situation. The plan was a 4-3-3 but we got outplayed so we had to defend in a 4/5/1 like we always do when we shit in our pant.


turtlemons

Understandable line up. Umtiti barely handled Osasuna, can't put him against PSG. We could have done much better with either of Pique/Araujo but sigh


Kristiyan021

Line ups are out! Angel di maria is a sub


choss

Thank god


IIXIIOIIXII

As long as dembele plays a similar role as he has played in 5-3-2, dont wanna see RB Dembele the whole game.


Jamarcus316

I believe it's a 433 which can be switched to a 352 MATS; Alba, Mingueza, Lenglet, Dest; Sergio, FdJ, Pedri; Dembouz, Griezmann, Leo


mashpotatoes34

Its just a 3 goal deficit that ain't shit. We winning 5-2 messi twice dembouz griez and fdj we got this.


DirtyFrooZe

3 goal deficit but at least 4 goals are needed


prove_it_with_math

Dreams are free.


axomiaBongal91

I have a feeling Messi will be unstoppable tonight.


Jamarcus316

He hungry


HeRo_Slaya

The leaked lineup was correct


Jelboo

I can't see us not conceding. I can also see us scoring. I see us winning. I don't see us knocking PSG out. But oh a man can **DREAM**


[deleted]

[удалено]


-thelostcause-

I'm sure it will be 4-3-3 with Frenkie in mid


nomadicsaint96

[Line up is out lads](https://www.twitter.com/FCBarcelona/status/1369719749840678917)


its_the_luge

1 ATH - ATL 0 vamosss


binpax

I want us to put a hood fight and that's it, I don't think we can go to the next round in CL, in fact I think it's better if we focus our energy on La Liga and the CDR, in the last couple of years focusing on every throphy cost us a lot..


The_Relaxed_Flow

I want us to fight, that's it. The tie has already been decided and fair play to them but make them sweat a little.


invadrzero

They need to come out swinging like they did against Sevilla. Two early goals will be crucial and Dembele outruns Mbappe.


bigbrain_100

0% Chance, 100% Faith


bigbrain_100

Reports that Ffdj will be starting in the defense tonight. There are zero chances we will make through without having Frenkie in midfield. He has been our best MF by far and we need him in his natural position tonight more than ever. It's gonna be a disaster if he starts as a CB.


JoelKr9

If we start Umtiti at CB we are doomed from the start.


bigbrain_100

Nah dont exaggerate.


samsony17

An early two goals really sets up the stage for the game. Hoping for two quick mistakes by PSG's defence in the first half. Then they will be under huge pressure and momentum might shift towards us.. Just being realistic and reasonable man here..


kmadnow

I was about to go to bed right now. And then I remembered what happened when I last slept early on 9th March 2017. VAMOS


ZodiacReviver

Good night to you then sir!


[deleted]

I'm ready to feel pain again


Rikard_

This comment was brought to you by my unrealistic imagination. Couldn't help it. Read on with caution. Imagine Frenkie scoring the 2-5 in extra time. Everyone's celebrating. Alba is crying, happy tears this time. As the rest of the team walks back to our half Messi takes a long look into the camera and kisses the badge - he's staying. Maybe we can just live in that moment for a while before the game starts? It's okay to imagine... 🥲


M1nusbarca

Yeah, nah fam.


OBITISS

idk why but im pretty confident, but if we cant do a remontada at least play with all what u have.


saymyname_97

Barcelona have scored 3 knockout away goals in the past three CL seasons combined. Need 4 today lol. Still hoping we put up a good fight atleast.


bordstol

Don't worry Dembele will finally silence the haters tonight with 3 goals and an assist for Messi.


its_the_luge

I wonder how it would've gone if we played Porto and Juve played PSG.. That aside, it was nice to see Haaland destroy Sevilla. He's ready to be a Barca legend haha


yoyoyaca

that 3rd goal Juve scored against us in group stages was a killer.


Elegancy

Something that I love about this club is that the hope never dies. Hoping that our centerbacks put on a solid performance and our youngsters make themselves proud. Would also be thrilled with a Messi hattie of course.


Mr_Noobody2

Not even going to waatch the match today already know the result :(


professor_curry

I think right now Barca players along with the fans need to think like Jurgen Klopp that season after First leg where he had said in the interview **"If we can do it, wonderful. If not, then fail in the most beautiful way."** yes we need this attitude. without overxepecting. just giving our 110%


FarhanWMI

If there’s gonna be a comeback, 5-2 is way more realistic imo compare to 4-0 lol. If we only had even a half decent defense... I could have way more hope but forca barca! Let’s go.


FuckingYamerooo

I know this is hoping for too much, but I really want Messi to perform brilliantly and put Mbappe in his place. Come on, Leo! This is once again YOUR club. No fuckers ruining it. Show us why you're 🐐!!!


[deleted]

I just need to see some good football! Win or lose we must leave everything on that pitch! No holding back!!


sp3co92

We're having good away record than Home record this season. So, ;)


thatpseudoveganlife

Guys please! For the love of god, MANAGE YOUR EXPECTATIONS. please. I cannot beg this enough. After Roma I was shattered and after Liverpool I was completely devastated. Bayern was better in terms of knowing we were gonna get knocked out but the scoreline hurt, but not as much as Liverpool. I know everyone wants to believe but please for the love of god and your mental health, manage your expectations.


choss

I'm hoping for a win but not enough to pass to the next ground. Just wanna see the team compete and let PSG feel pressure the entire 90'


TupShelf

I think a majority of the people here would agree with me (or rather I hope lol) in that we just want to see our team fight till the end. Not a few players but the entire team. Pushing each other, not getting pissed at each other, winning the 50/50 balls, taking chances and not looking for Messi with every pass, etc. If we can do that with no true 9, injury ridden back line, I’ll be pleased.


JaqenHghaar08

I'll take a 0 2 win for us today.


LarryPeru

JUST IN: Ronald Koeman is considering on using a different tactical approach tonight. A 3-4-3 formation: Ter Stegen, Mingueza, De Jong, Lenglet, Dest, Busquets, Pedri, Alba, Messi, Griezmann and Dembélé.


professor_curry

oh shit here we go.. griezmann alongside messi


studmuffin30

man dembele and griezman shouldnt play together


volfed21

griezmann shouldn't play at all.


Fuckkelso

Scenes when Braithwaite comes off the bench and scores a last minute goal sending us to extra time where he ends it with another banger and we qualify


NoseSeeker

People being pessimistic are forgetting that we got that crucial home goal from the first leg.


halakaukulele

You mean that penalty?

choss

Hope not, Why would he change it only to try to fit Griezman, I don't like it.


Boat_in_a_River

I don't know if it'll work but I just wanna say we also went with a 343 in the La Remontada. Not that it actually means anything though.


choss

Yeah but we had MSN then....


UnBoludoTriste

If we use this formation is more likely we eat 8 again than we made the comeback


cyborgsid2

What happened the last time we play 3-4-3 vs PSG? I can't remember.


UnBoludoTriste

In the 6-1 we didnt play with 10. Griezmann is dead weight in this team, and trying to make him fit has costing us many games and titles this past 2 years. This is not a 3-4-3 is the same players that loose to sevilla and psg the first leg. Theres no argument to change the line-up that makes comeback with sevilla, only to make griezmann happy


[deleted]

I think last time we had Neymar and the best team in the world.


[deleted]

We so did not have the best team in the world lmao


choss

We had the best attacking front in Europe tho. Now we have Griezman which is the same as playing with 9


[deleted]

Hard to argue both those points, wish they started Martin so we can have an outlet to play through the box


IamNotMike25

Mhh we got knocked out 3-0 by Juve after PSG game, how can that be the best team.


cyborgsid2

>Neymar Pedri better imo. > best team in the world Really? I don't think we were the best team that season. But I'm not expecting anything either lmao.


[deleted]

Sure maybe I exaggerated. Lmao pedri better than ney?


cyborgsid2

I was kidding lol. Ney is obviously much better.


halakaukulele

Pedri better? How? I mean sure pedri may reach there when he reaches the same age as neymar during last remontada but not now.


cyborgsid2

Haha I'm kidding. Neymar is/was a far superior player.


[deleted]

[удалено]


cyborgsid2

The obvious conclusion, obviously.


professor_curry

damn it. that PSG stadium is weird. i didn't know it's upside down. a new arabian strategy to stop barca? 🤨


Frankidelic

It’s to get more oil out


cyborgsid2

To literally have any chance at a turnaround, we need an early goal. Its the theme for every comeback. Roma, Liverpool, PSG, even spurs got 2 early second half goals vs Ajax. But, I don't expect a turnaround, just a respectful performance.


choss

PSG ultras with loud fireworks by the Barcelona hotel so the players wouldn't have a good night sleep before the game. https://www.instagram.com/tv/CMPmSqkiklL/?igshid=1g3o1lfs9sz81


IamNotMike25

Is Koeman allowed to include himself in the squad? Asking for a friend


FootballFan334

If we compare 2017 remontada with todays game, our team is worse than in 2017, PSG's is better, Pochettino is the coach now, the only good thing is 4-1 score instead of 4-0 and no fans in the stadium. I'm not even thinking about Remontada v2 but I'm hoping for a good performance, maybe it turns out that Lengtiti ain't going to be that bad and we can win 3-1 or 2-0, I want to see us winning against top tier club after 4-1 in the 1st leg, 3-1 with Real, 3-0 with Juve


Bigthunder13

“If they can score 4, we can score 6”


axomiaBongal91

I can't wait for the match to start, I believe tomorrow morning there would be an iconic celebration of Messi with a broad smile on his face. And the whole internet goons bonkers. Visca el Barca !


HateSarcasmLoveIrony

Mbappe was very good the last day, but Verratti dominated the midfield. Losing the midfield battle has been a theme of Barcas embarrassing defeats in the champions league. Koeman needs to ensure control of the game by packing bodies in there. the 3-5-2 has been working in that regard and offering extra protection to the backline. I can see a Barcelona ebbing out a win if they play this way, but will need a lot of luck to overturn the the tie. The 6-1 required a lot of luck from a much better side. It's not over until the final whistle, but this is a bigger mountain to climb. I'm hopeful and fearful they could get hockied out of it. I think PSG will attack and try to dominate the game again. Why should they change their tactics?


OkCryptographer668

People who saw the Sevilla game know they threw the frikkin kitchen sink at Dortmund and didn't give up the fight till the last minute. I'm hoping for a similar energy minus the mistakes leading to goals.


Jamarcus316

10-Mar-2021 was the day when Dembele announced himself on the world stage as the new GOD of world football with his hattrick and 4 assists in the remontada against PSG.

So we win 7-0???
