Messi plays everywhere.Since when did Messi play on the left?
Didnt know the spanish were so comfortable with the English language. Even used 'efin'Latest from a Barca forum:
"I dont know what to expect, but deep inside me i want messi to bottle it, we lose by two goals margin in a ugly game for us, get exposed, and start fresh with valverde sacked. I think i would start to cry if messi yet again saves a day, dont want that at all. I want others to start doing their efin job and grow some balls"
and I thought some of us were bad.
Own goal.Luis Suarez hasn't scored away in Europe since 2015..
Guess who Suarez is scoring against tomorrow night..

Doh. of course, what was I thinking.It will have been written by a basement dweller who supports Barcelona, France, the Dallas Cowboys and Roger Federer.
I think that post alone probably proves the underrated nature of Busquets - he's arguably one of the best midfielder of his generation.
I don't think Barca's midfield overall though is better than the one Madrid played against us - I think the big difference is that Barca are a better team in sync with a genuinely frightening attack.
I wouldn't be against us just giving them a kick around to be honest.

So what, will it be 5-1-3-1 or will it be 4-3-3?
Basically either
-----------------Lloris---------------
-Alderweireld-Sanchez-Dier--
Trippier--------------------Davies
---------------Wanyama----------
--Moura------Lamela----Son---
-----------------Kane---------------
Or
-----------------Lloris---------------
Trippier-Toby-Sanchez-Davies
--Sissoko--Wanyama--Winks-
--Lamela-----Kane----Moura--
Actually this latter option does not sound too awful? Or is it just me?
To be fair, there's only room for one Argentine GOAT in a suit.

It's gotta be:No Eriksen, Vertonghen, Dembélé, Aurier, Vorm or Alli training with the team today. Aurier is doing rehab training.
As a positive Hugo is back training with the squad
