Barca look complacent, I dunno. But it's just been passive possession. Now they have finally come to life

I’m not sure we’d be able to be as tactically disciplined as Chelsea are being. I know we defended well against Real, but we still allowed them a fair few chances.

I think we were still more offensive than Chelsea though, they are pretty much parking the bus.

How the fuck is Paulinho starting for Barcelona and Brazil? He's still no better than he was for us, which was pretty useless.
@Everlasting Seconds thinks we made a mistake getting rid of him. His qualities are what they are. He is a decent 2nd striker/loafer/goal hanger and works hard defensively. Nothing else.

ES, you still thinkg we made a mistake?

We want them exerting as much effort as possible over the coming weeks, this is a good result if it stays like this.

Barca strolled in and won 3 nil the return leg would be a dead rubber.

Barcelona will score at least one at Camp Nou but it's all about away goals, they need one here.

This season, the second half of the second half they are at their best. Unfortunately Conte is at his best when he plays ultra defensive. They are practically putting 9 men in the box now. Barca always play the same way and they really don't have many plan Bs. Dembele has hardly played this season due to injury and he's the only player that might be able to change things. Saying that all Messi needs is one shot.
