    Oooofft, that was class.

    Barca getting run over here, that was a sitter would've ended it too. Pique has lost the plot altogether.

    Even Messi's timing looking off.

    Is it possible Levante have done this too early? It's an incredible comeback but 20 minutes against Messi is always dangerous.

    But it's Barca who look like they'd rather the game ended now, forget Messi, they are just a mess.

    Oh here we go.

    What happened? Griezmann ffs :56:

    Can't mind ever seeing Barca rag dolled like this, especially after going ahead. Even when Bayern destroyed them a few years back it didn't look like this.

    Maybe a bit unfair to compare them to the Xavi Iniesta team but it's the first time I've thought how gutting it would be if Messi's last few years were in an unbalanced team.

    Messi's carried them for a decade. Barca are * now, would be great for someone else to win the league

    Liverpool, Leicester and City - only teams now with any chance of winning the league - completely different from every decade in English history! Opposite of Spain. Would love Granada to do a Lesta or even Atleti again, would be hilarious to see Griezzman's face after Barca spunked so much on him

    I meant someone else actually winning their national league, like say maybe your other team. And it’s Griezmann.

    Not really seen much of Barca this season since theyre not on the tele any more but it's weird to see them being pumped so often, probably the first time they've fell back down to that level since about 2005/2006/2007.

    Think their main problem now is they severely lack pace Busquets, De Jong, Rakitic, Vidal, Arthur aren't the quickest, Suarez has no pace now, Messi doesn't run much any more, Griezmann is probably their fastest player from midfield forward who actually gets a game and even he isn't that fast. Probably becoming too much work for them to outplay teams when they don't have the likes of a Pedro, Sanchez, Neymar or even Villa who all had a bit of pace to worry the opposition and keep them pinned back. Teams aren't that worried about Messi, Suarez and Griezmann outpacing them or Arthur, Rakitic, Vidal or De Jong making runs forward so can afford to attack Barca more than they used to.

    Got to admire the bravery of Celta's approach but can't help feel it's going to end in tears.

    Aye I think Celta pressing so high caught them off guard. They've been a bit hit and miss this season the games I've seen mind.

    They'll win this comfortably now though.
