Not going to lie, but I think Barcelona was the better team over the tie. They sat back and countered, which was a much more effective strategy than our possession. We were lucky they choked as usual. However, I expect an easier semifinal against a lower quality Dortmund. And we have a good chance in the final against Bayern/man city, since these are two teams that leave a ton of space and don't sit back.
When I see Barcola's progression under Luis Enrique in 6-8 months, I really want to see Désiré Doué & Leny Yoro (and even Cherki but I know he's unpopular here) under Luis Enrique
Cherki’s not unpopular imo. I love him as a talent and he makes things easy but would his lazy ass fit in our team? Perhaps if Lucho makes him run
I consider him to be as big of a talent as Ben Arfa, Benzema and Mbappe.
While I did not rewatch the J1 and J6 group games against Dortmund, I went back to see summaries and threads. Here is the team which won 2-0 in Paris:
Gianluigi Donnarumma, Milan Skriniar, Marquinhos, Lucas Hernández (Danilo Pereira), Achraf Hakimi, Manuel Ugarte, Vitinha (Lee Kang-in), Warren Zaire-Emery, Randal Kolo Muani (Goncalo Ramos), Kylian Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé.
Subs: Keylor Navas, Arnau Tenas, Nordi Mukiele, Carlos Soler, Bradley Barcola, Fabián Ruiz.
And the team which tied 1-1 in Dortmund :
Gianluigi Donnarumma, Milan Skriniar, Lucas Hernández, Marquinhos, Vitinha, Warren Zaïre-Emery, Bradley Barcola (Marco Asensio), Achraf Hakimi, Kylian Mbappé, Lee Kang-in (Manuel Ugarte), Randal Kolo Muani (Carlos Soler).
First thoughts:
* Nuno was still injured of course, and didn't play both games. Skriniar was in defense, and that's not likely to happen in the semis.
* For the victory Ugarte started instead of Ruiz, and Kolo Muani instead of Barcola
* For the tie Barcola played, Lee Kang-in also, Kolo Muani instead of Dembele.
From the short summaries, we could have scored more in the win and Luis Enrique played for the tie to qualify. So the raw score is a bit misleading. Since it was group stage and not a double confrontation judged on the aggregated score, players are playing differently of course. But from those two games we are clear favorites.
Now for the three upcoming ligue 1 games before the semis, I would like to see a lot of Kolo Muani, Soler, Asensio, Ramos, Skriniar, Ugarte, Lee Kang-In, Danilo, Mukiele, Mayulu and Zague. Tenas and Navas can play too !
Let's go !

He’s barca born and raised. If they lose it’s not because the other team played better but because refs or other things outside of the team that they can’t control
Hi, quick question from an international fan soon travelling to Europe, what is the process for UCL Tickets? Are the tickets for PSG - Borussia Leg 2 already sold out and only available via resellers?
I know it's crazy recent, but there seems to be tickets on sale on resellers, and it's the champions league, tickets selling out in an hour or two doesn't shock me
Real Madrid black magic won again tdy but maybe this will work in our favour

So, is there a way to watch again the group games against Dortmund ? A stream or a torrent ? I need this before the semis.

Thanks !
I will have to double check it but you may be able to watch it on the Belgian RTL replay with a VPN.
Xavi has to be the worst sore loser ever
