@BarcaTimes The red shorts against Sevilla really pissed me off

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@brfootball No Putin, Xavi or Pedro for Barcelona? How drunk are you?

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@11synergy That’s exactly what happened with Barca when they signed Dembele, Coutinho and Griezman. Just extremely bad profiling, especially Griezman, signing him was absolutely pointless

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

Shots from outside the box are key to unlock low blocks and they will come in handy throughout the season

Adyemi might end up being the signing of the summer, insane player and his performances in the last 3 games have been jaw dropping (2/2) #Barca #FCB #LaLiga #BarcaRacing

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

I’ve never seen Flick’s Barca as dominant as this season. First half was absolutely electric, I was overwhelmed by all the intensity.

We’re still sloppy at the back, teams barely get chances b/c we’re so dominant, but when they do, they’re dangerous. (1/2) #Barca #FCB #LaLiga

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@NealGardner_ Even nicer is the support he received from the crowd

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@NealGardner_ This dumbass can’t see the field ever again. Just give it up already

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@DKostanjsak His through balls have been absolute class this season

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@NealGardner_ He has a point to prove

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@NealGardner_ As it should be, only serious teams move like this. Need more headaches like this for Flick 😬

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

One of the most intense halves of football I’ve ever seen. The intensity is so overwhelming for me let alone for Racing lol

We’re shaky at the back and that’s the only annoying part, but everything else has been marvellous. We’re in great form.

@ReshadRahman This team is absolutely thunderous, I was genuinely overwhelmed by all the intensity lol

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

Early goals are heaven for a team that presses so high. They bring opponents out of their shell and the spend the game chasing, leaving spaces and getting the team comfortable to play their best football #Barca #FCB #LaLiga #BarçaRacing

[Domagoj Kostanjšak @DKostanjsak]

Barcelona now score goals early, giving themselves a lot of breathing room to establish superiority.

It's like we go into every game with a goal cushion.

Massive.

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@NealGardner_ Yes that’s wild to say— Pep’s Barca was otherworldly and drawing that comparison right now is premature, this squad needs to win a UCL or 2 before daring to be in that convo. Relax

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@11synergy I think this might be far fetched, but I’d love to see Balde and Gabriel Jesus start, while also resting Rodri and Cubarsi

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

He’s simply the best player itw, no one gets you on the edge of your seat like Lamine. Had a great season with Barca, and while he had a World Cup below his standards, he was an important part of the champions’ squad. Mind you, he’s only 19. The only worthy winner for me.

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@NealGardner_ These people have 0 shame

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@BouafifNour Gordon please, really need him to score his first goal tonight

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@NealGardner_ Probably unrealistic to see Balde starting but this seems the perfect game for him to get some minutes. Espart, Fermin and Rodri rested. I’d also look into subbing Jesus for Raphina and Christensen for Cubarsi at the hour mark if the score permits

[Basel Maddan @baselmaddan]

@Furymaker_ If true, why do you think Barca would be monitoring a player of this profile when we have Fermin and Olmo in that position (and probably Lamine transitioning there down the line)?
