Barcelona vs Tottenham Hotspur (Joan Gamper Cup) 19.00 Tonight

[Pistols At Dawn]

I agree with almost everything said in this thread today. Feeling very optimistic -- what a shocker!

But I do not agree that Son has been poor. He was instrumental against Shaktar -- didn't score, but was heavily involved in everything.

Perisic is fantastic, and looks reborn. But I wouldn't be putting him ahead of Sonny just yet.

 

[Bump]

This ref...

So two squad players vs a squad XI? You are way too pessimistic and overly negative.

They started quick and had the ball. Scored an early goal and I bet you and most were thinking "oh here we go". Then we got on the ball and pinned them back, figured out the defensive width and forced them to go back more often than not.

It's been impressive for an XI and a defense our fanbase would be worried about.

No I’m saying that the view of Spanish people watching the game alongside me in Mallorca is that they don’t rate those two specific players and that they feel in general the squad isn’t at full speed in terms of preparation for their season

not my personal opinion

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

That's not a foul in any other stadium

 

[nidge]

Spainish ref in awful decison shocker.

 

[Tucker]

Embarrassing dive.

 

[Tractorspur]

Richarlison has done fuck all

 

[mark87]

Fuck Raphina. Prick.

 

[TheChosenOne]

A game my old man always talks about

Ray Clem let one in he should have saved. That was the difference. Apart from the violence, Alan Simonsen was one of the worst

 

[ComfortablyNumb]

who would've thought skippy would turn into lampard in his prime under ange
lad's a goal scoring machine

Me, I would!

 

[Huddlebone]

Nah calm down, Sanchez just cant help himself from putting some pressure on the defence

 

[wspur]

Sánchez wow

 

[mr ashley]

That was wonderfully patient play to break through the Barca press

 

[wishkah]

This is lovely to watch

 

[sage]

BIG DAVVVV

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

The ease with which we break their press……then the speed and range of passing is refreshing to watch

 

[robotsonic]

Look so confident playing out there. Never saw such swagger under Conte despite trying for the same.

 

[spurs mental]

Bissouma is the Dembele replacement we've been waiting for

 

[Nerine]

Superb play out from the back there.

 

[Dr Know]

Sanchez playing really well.
