La Liga, 2016-17

Tough blow for Eibar that. They played with such energy and great pressing and also created some nice moves I thought they could have got something from the game but Sevilla's class proved too strong in the end. For a small town Eibar punch well above their weight, their manager is doing a great job it looks like. Is his name St Pauli?

Good result for Sevilla.

 

No, it's Mendilibar. You're probably thinking of Sampaoli, the Sevilla manager.

FT

Gijon 1-4 Atleti
Real 2-0 Espanyol
Depor 0-1 Alaves
Sevilla 2-0 Eibar

 

Ah of course thanks, I was getting mixed up with who the commentator was referring to I never thought if it as sounding like St Pauli.

Good name, Mendileibar. He must be a decent coach. Probably not as good as Sampaoli though.

Good result for Alaves.

Bale made a dramatic return. Madrid will feel even more confident now.

 

Big win for Valencia today

 

1 nil. Lovely ball Suarez..

Gonna be a cricket score..

 

Great a save from Ter Stegen

 

The front 3 excluded, this is the most average Barcelona team i think i've ever seen.

 

Thats all Enrique has relied on, rather than fix the other areas with a top player or 2 he has brought in players to make the squad bigger. Turan, Vidal, Digne, Umtiti, Denis Suarez, Gomes and Alcacer are not good enough to better them at the top levels. Shame Rakitic has went right off the boil

 

Iniesta's very inconsistant the past couple of seasons, legs have gone a bit still has occasional very good games but a lot of games pass him bye now. Rakitic doesnt really suit Barca although is a good player, bit like Johansen for us too sloppy and rushed at times for the way Barca play.

They need 2 big signings to freshen themselelves up a centre-back and creative midfielder. They haven't really signed a world class player since Neymar, been all £10-20million younger guys or squad players.

 

Barca have been brutal since the first goal..

 

Woeful..

No trying a leg..

 

Quite sad to see the end of the great Barca era. They are turning into Arsenal.

 

They should have conceded at least once here Barca, thats about 4 good saves Ter Stegens had to do.

 

Pathetic performance..

 

I reckon if we played Barca now we'd horse them

 

1-1 Ter Stegen should possibly have saved that one but a goal was coming

 

It's not even a surprise, this is not a Barca team

 

Been coming all game. Leganes should be ahead..

Barcelona have been a disgrace. Hope they get pumped here..

 

Barca look like the huns here

 

Aye, goal had been coming although it was a soft goal to lose, possibly offside as well.
