La Liga 2019-20

Oooh Betis need to keep it together, flying to ground against Barca is never a good idea

Oh my, there's your man ILTC, he looks really good

Feels like it would be sacrilege not keeping the ball on the ground on this pitch, just begging for creativity when every pass would be true to touch.

Alba ffs some player but since 2012 I just can't bear to celebrate his goals

 

Like Leigh Griffiths in his prime

3-1 Perez

 

And again, the speed of their play is frightening.

 

Alba 4-1, pumping them now.

Whos that they mentioned who might get on, some young guy?

 

Why does that pitch always look massive when it's the same size as most pitches in Europe? Is the the high camera?

 

Ah, so this is what we should be doing with Broony, resting him when the game is over.

 

5-1 Vidal, that 16 year old Fati coming on as well I think.

 

Oh that's the pick of the bunch, unbelievable. Griezmann and Vidal bonding again Barca style

Boom!!!! Now that 's the pick of the bunch * *

 

He must be something special, unreal to be playing for Barca that young even though the game is over.

Edit: Well there we go, super fast feet, that was explosive skill for a kid.

Is this not a bit ominous for the league, Rakitic, Suarez and Messi not playing?

I know Atletico and Real have big players too but can they play without that kind of quality?

It says 5-2 but it feels like 10-2, when Barca take control it's hard to stop them on their patch. Who was playing instead of the 3 first team mentioned above?

 

Ansu Fati is a gem, remember the name

Carles Perez is too good to be playing in Segunda and he's not likely to get many first team minutes once the injury situation stabilizes

 

Fati does look special, incredible feet. Can see he's been with Barca since 10. Perez's finish and movement before his goal were excellent, class players are normally calm when they see the goal like he did and just pass it. It looks easy but players often panic.

If he's not getting first team games he does look ready for a decent team on loan.

 

Ansu Fati debut

 

Seal of approval

 

Never even heard of this kid before. Looks amazing.

 

Barcelona return to Pamplona for the first time in 3 yrs ahead of the International break - Messi, Suarez, and Dembélé all remain out while Barca B winger Carles Pérez & 16 y.o. Juvenil A forward Ansu Fati once again travel with the senior squad

Osasuna haven't conceded a goal in the last 6 matches at home. Hope to see similar lineup to that against Betis:

Rafinha-Griezmann-Pérez
De Jong - Roberto/Arthur - Busquets
Junior-Umtiti-Lenglet-Semedo
Mats​

 

What’s up with Messi, mate?

 

Right calf strain, he's been training with the group but the plan is allegedly to give him the rest with the international break coming up

Had Barcelona dropped points against Betis, I suspect he'd play against Osasuna but that's just my gut talking

 

Thanks

 

1 nil Osasuna said it before that Barca defence is rotten and needed sorted years ago.
