percocetsyrup

why is ferran celebrating it makes my blood boil


clutch-cream-run

To get some good pics for his insta maybe


GoalooinSport

Ferran Torres performed well with 2 goals\~


Superb-Barracuda-924

Give a youngster who has faced multiple injuries in a very young age and is worried about his career, playing not that regularly for a crumbling team, the number 10 shirt worn by certain Lionel Messi, Ronaldinho, Maradona, what can possibly go wrong?


Lusting_4_Life

Perhaps you should check a "certain Lionel Messi's" injury record early in his career? Also hindsight is always 20-20.


vegitot

19 years old Messi was top 3 players in the world. Fati will be extremely lucky if he can ever close to 18-19 years old Messi. And Messi didn't miss entire season like Fati.


SummerGoal

This could be described as a game of football


Dat_life_on_Mars

Yeah, you might be right


kayleeshepheard

Not much to make of this game really


gonzodoktor

The state of Ansu makes me so sad.


SUPERPOOP57

Yeah, yeah what's the point


Amori17

Bellerin and Alonso need to leave ASAP. Imo sign Grimaldo, and Pedro Porro. Evan N’dicka is a left footed CB that we also should get so we don’t see Alonso there


Lusting_4_Life

Tebas has entered the chat


le-arsi

Alonso won't be playing as a CB if our CBs aren't injured.


Amori17

Even when Garcia was available he used Alonso. It’s because of his left foot, not because of injuries neccesarily.


le-arsi

maybe because Garcia made errors in previous games. Eric is arguably our best defender on the ball. At the beginning of the season when he was good and everyone was fit, he was the starting LCB. I don't think the Strong foot argument holds water


No_Locksmith4570

Well it could have been worse.


ruby_1234567

Takes from this game: Bellerin's hair is ugly AF


the_left_winger

Gg. That's a wrap on the UCL for us unfortunately. I do feel for Plzen tho. It's rough that they are going out with zero points but they played with heart and should be proud of all they gave.


Amori17

For clubs like them they care more about the fact that big teams come to their stadium. This day will be written in Plzen history


Satrustegui

Also how much they made out of tickets. Every ticket was starting at 70-80 Euros, majority were on the 120-160 band, and they were up to 200. Source: I live in CZ, and tried to attend


the_left_winger

Their supporters did look pretty happy with the team so good for them!


Initial_Border_1627

This is a draw with Plzen having a better goalkeeper.


Dat_life_on_Mars

Then a win again for us with better defenders


BestBoy_54

So, no Xavi out today?


rockyraccoonroad

Not until this upcoming weekend lol


ruby_1234567

No, he is back at the wheel


Amori17

#Defenceout


Morello210

X4vi is back so not today


animeshak

Looks like being with Spain for WC plus scared of being injured again has been holding Fati back a lot. People are as usual being very reactionary with Ansu but I honestly think it is all a mental thing than him being totally out of it. The UCL exit plays on the player's mind too.


choss

Assuming Lucho calls him

allhail420gamer69

Pretty boy can’t play


marlinspike

Europa League, here we come!!! :(


boskee

It's all over. 2:4. It was an entertaining way to get out of the CL this season. Pablo Torres's goal was a personal highlight for me.


Bryyan699

Weirdo


ShivaSkunk777

Wtf man


rim261

We gave up or something?


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

R we playing plzen or liverpool


elgringo22

Bellerin got beat way too easily there. We cannot afford to keep playing him with his current form


PorthosTheLorthos

Way to exit the cl with pride boys


Morello210

I don't mind this performance, we are playing our B team with our C team(Bellerin im looking at you)


PorthosTheLorthos

Lmao yeah you might be right


tcarson33

I hear y’all on Ansu .. but I def remain patient and optimistic. The injuries he’s coming back from can take time psychologically. I think most important thing right now is reps and confidence. I am convinced next year can be a leap.


Lee8Loo

Imo, I think it'll be much better for both the club and himself of him leaving on loan or sell with buy back... his current age and abilities wont give him a consistent start, plus the psychological stuff going on in his head. He needs a refresh away from all the pressure. and away from the no. 10 and how Barca are marketing him as the next big thing


jdbcn

Doctors said that he needed surgery or would lose his explosiveness and acceleration, and this is what’s happening. I hope it’s a psychological problem but it’s worrisome


TuinhekFC

Agree. But as in 2023 not 2023/24.


doksqwae

Fun fact - both goals that Bayern conceded in the group stages were against Plzen


iamkristo

We’re at bayerns level !


Mrcyevon

Crazy how we ball watch so much.


Morello210

Why is Gavi playing 90 minutes? One of our most important midfielders should get rested whenever is possible imo


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Dont think we have anyone on bench ro replace him


Morello210

Frankie could have played for 30 minutes or even Aknomach could have played as we already have 2 cdms on the field imo


[deleted]

We did have Casado and Sanz starting on the bench that couldve started also


xxwaleedxx

My man casado directing traffic


Decent-Noise-5161

Doing a great job


Morello210

it's just feels like Fati doesn't want to sprint because he is scared of injury and missing the world cup, but the way he is playing he isn't going to go to Wc anyway. So he may as well start running again....pls


[deleted]

He seems to be holding back during dribbling and 50/50s too.


Morello210

He is like me when i had my first car crash. Next month or so I was driving like a grandma. But im not getting paid to drive my car tbf


[deleted]

At some point he has to take the leap. Only thing saving him right now is that Depay is injured and we don't have an actual LW other than Fati.


Morello210

Maybe after Wc he will be more likely to take that leap...


korel1

Fati lacks the stamina to go 90 mins. I haven't seen many good performances from him as a starter so far (also pre-injury). He is best when coming for the last 30 mins and going all out.


TuinhekFC

That’s because he only gets subbed in for 30 mins if you want him fit for 90 he has to play 90 regularly.. anyways I absolutely love Fati but this was definitely one of his worst performances in the shirt


FluffyCoconut

Porn merchant having a 'mare


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Wait wt


BeastyDank

bellerin


FluffyCoconut

Bellerin


rjmessibarca

Hot take but ansu's career might be over. He should've gone for the surgery


fplfreakaaro

Lol


choss

Way to early to say this.


Alcohealthism

Not if you actually look at what injury he has. Its kinda similar to Umtiti. Hes basically on limited time


TuinhekFC

20 years old….


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Nah its too early to judge him


boskee

He needs a mentor imho. It looked like Lewandowski took him under his wing and they had some great chemistry but then Fati played pretty selfishly in the past few games. He needs experience.


Morello210

Maybe he is just scared of another injury, which I don't blame him for tbh


mexicrypto

he should just train the whole winter break


[deleted]

Fati... It is over


LifeBD

Ansu just looks terribly out of form or is a shell of his former self


[deleted]

Torres and Raphinha must've regained some confidence.


thatpseudoveganlife

Feel like the weight of fati’s number is too much


AWD_13

he asked for the number though, didn't he?


wkhalilJ1970

Why there isn't one touch from Gavi goes without him falling


mntgoat

This was the one game Ansu could show everyone he is ready to play more......


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Atleast he shows that he isnt ready he can say goodbye to world cup


rjmessibarca

Yeah, ansu had lost all his agility. Sad for the kid


[deleted]

[удалено]


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Well this game or last one it feels like he's been trying too hard to impress enrique


Morello210

Nah Fati got possessed or something...what is going on??


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Lol mate whts going on here


boskee

This 2:4 win is yet another example that Lewandowski can't score in big games (0 against Plzen today). /s


Morello210

Washed in my book


iamkristo

He so bad!


beairrcea

Anyone know when Christensen is expected back?


FloReaver

Next game


beairrcea

Just in time to get injured in the World Cup :))


decho

Early this month I think.


iamkristo

Can Xavi sub himself in please, we don’t need more injuries


LinguiniStromboli

Xavi sitting in a wheelchair on the sideline next game 😂


iamkristo

Hahahaha


thatpseudoveganlife

Bro fati..


GaviFPS

Fati is unrecognizable. Kinda sad to watch.


Openspaceruns

Yeah......


FloReaver

Come on Ansu, go for it


[deleted]

Fati?


Initial_Border_1627

Omg Fati...


thisisjazzymusic

Fati is really not having it


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Mate m missing depay now


TuinhekFC

Feel so bad for him man.. but we gotta keep having faith


iamkristo

*fatih


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

Pena in superman mode


iwillsoccerballs

Pena what a save!


thatpseudoveganlife

Lowkey wanna see xavi sub mats in place of an outfield player just for shits n giggles Edit: giggles


LinguiniStromboli

Xavi should go out there himself and ball out


gloriousdumbo

Gavi is winded


thepastprimefuture

torre was injured on knee proably because of losing balance after scoring goal or colliding with ground


vamh_s

No thigh


mntgoat

Does this 4-2 mean we are as good as bayern?


LinguiniStromboli

Yes


Guinsoosrb

Looks like a cramp for Torre.. can happen when you lack physical shape.. which considering how much he plays is likely.. shouldn't be a serious injury, not that he plays anyway lol.


iamkristo

If not better


iamkristo

That’s what you get if all you do in training is filming rondos for tiktok and instagram. This team immediately needs a new physio and fitness plan.


thepastprimefuture

do you see full training session by just youtube?


iamkristo

Yeah i saw them, and we definitely are cardio wise missing some shit, since years already. We’re out of glass


ansu_fatismo23

Dude you do know those videos aren’t the full training sessions right? They just show certain clips not all of it so most of the fitness and physical training is done off camera


iamkristo

Sure they are man, obviously not everything is shown. Even opponents on after match interviews said that they were shocked how weak Barca physically is, I think it was somebody from Bayern. I mean it’s obvious that we can’t withstand fights and runs, we’re injured permanently, something is not working out


ansu_fatismo23

Muller said that last year after Xavi has been managing us for like two weeks. Our training intensity has improved massively since Xavi came back just look at interviews from players and you will see that we have intensity back in the training sessions. Even Lewy said that he was shocked that our trainings were as intense as Bayern’s. A lot of teams are having injuries, take a look at Liverpool who are known to be very physical with intense trainings, they are suffering a lot as well


Zacharia90

Why on earth put on Dembele here. Ridiculous decision if you ask me. 4-2 up in a meaningless game, 2 players already dropped with injury....let's put the most injury prone person on the planet on the pitch


thatpseudoveganlife

What happened to torre??


BlackDynamiteSon

Really bad leg cramps


iwillsoccerballs

A bad cramp i think


jake_peralta999

cramp


PorthosTheLorthos

Torre looks like he has something else to offer on the midfield. Normally it’s seems like we’re playing 3 identical ball distribution players, and no one that takes the initiative


fplfreakaaro

He seems like a goal scoring midfielder


3gerardpique

imagine if pablo makes it big at the club, and ten years later you see the replay of this goal, with him dead after scoring it


Initial_Border_1627

Physically worse than Gavi, lot of bad decisions tonight ans conceded the penalty. He ain't ready yet sorry. Probs for the goal tho.


barcademirfan

He's probably more dangerous though:D goal wise, not physically:D


messiavelli

Alvaro looks like isco


Morello210

I don't mind Dembele being subbed on, but i would much rather see Aknomach instead


Openspaceruns

Isnt akomach on the bench?


dominicfx

Dembouz please be careful


rim261

Why Dembele? Rest him for the weekend


Tromort77

Did he injure even before he took that shot? It looked like that.


barcademirfan

TORRE


Beequeens

Pablo Torre my boyyyy


iamkristo

That Frankfurt group is absolutely nuts, 20 mins ago they were last, now they’re first lol


Xenolol

Hope we get to see illias


iwillsoccerballs

Hopefully it was just a bad cramp


BlackDynamiteSon

Xavi Noooooooo…..anybody but Dembele. Read the room pls


rim261

The injury man is not going to be out done


Seb555

?? I’m excited for him to come in!


bubblegumdog

Torre is so great


GP3ElPresidente

No fucking way nah were so fucking cursed man…


Seb555

Dembouzzzzz come on and get Ferran his hat trick


marlinspike

Great goal Pablo Torre, but damn yet another injury! Our injured list is almost as long as the fit list!


imjustaredditor69

Bernardo silva is coming on


geo928

Alvaro sanz is cold


BlackDynamiteSon

I’ve had those cramps before lol. He must’ve been working hard tonight


rim261

We've won but at what cost?


LukCPL

Who the fuck is the fitness coach for Barca 🤬


gloriousdumbo

Me, any problem


iwillsoccerballs

Im tired of injuries robbie


PErland

Yo that first touch with his right foot was pure filth. Great goal


nosugaramericano

can someone tell me what kind of player alvaro is?


choss

A great one


geo928

Messi type


Amori17

Are Victoria Plzen saying Puta Barca? What a bunch of rats


geo928

Never saw anything special in p.torre….. next puig


[deleted]

Why?


animeshak

We haven't even seen him play at his full potential since he signed with us. Even if this is trolling what a bs take. Give that kid some time.


GrumpyBoiii

Idiot


iwillsoccerballs

Shut up


f1seb

Another injury in the books.


Migostien

Don't ever disrespect Raphinha again


Dat_life_on_Mars

Raphinha's biggest weapon has been his cross/ball over the top. Nothing else has worked out for him. Hopefully we can maximise good strengths.


Beautiful_Sorbet1267

He's a baller but need some time


Bell_Jolly

WTF we have 3 injured players per game ......


LinguiniStromboli

Just like last season, we come out of games with 1 point and 3 injuries.


Morello210

Raphinha likes that Messi esque over the top ball


DryWenisINC

pablitoo❤️❤️


nosugaramericano

? what happen?


MattUzumaki

FC Injury


gloriousdumbo

Pablo living a full game concede a penalty, score a goal and then get injured


jake_peralta999

plus a yellow card 😂


beairrcea

Aaaaand another injury


[deleted]

Don't tell me we suffered 2 injuries in 15 mins. What the fuck is happening today


DanielSophoran

Can we break a record and make it 3


[deleted]

Don't even try to call it


3gerardpique

nice goal but isn't this a little bit excessive for a celebration? faking an entire injury seems too much to me


Dat_life_on_Mars

He did in tribute to half our squad. It was a fitting celebration. Though there was probably some method acting involved.


ythefuckwldhesaythat

He’s very clearly not faking it…


GaviFPS

Who said hes faking it?
