La Liga Discussion 2016/17

LOL Rakatic doing Roberto's defensive work for him ffs.

Atletico tiring Barca controlling more.

1-0 Messi makes it, Suarez taps it in.

1-0 after messi brilliance. poor atletico. i almost feel sorry for them. they give us a hard time 10/10 but luck is against them

Everyone gives hard time when refs helps at everything, as soon as ref dialed bias back Barca controlled and scored.

They've been relatively shit since the start of the season, though. It's not just poor luck.

Good to see we are showing to be more physically competitive in this game though, our players fouling them back and giving them their own medicine often

that gomes pass tho

yes! but since 4/5 games they have resorted to their "old" (1/2 season ago) tactics, after the failed earlier tactics (more posession, creative wing play etc). they are again to be feared

Gomes and Roberto both improved from the horrific start.

Tbf I think the ref in this game has been ok, he missed some fouls of course and one can argue about one or two of the offsides or not, but overall no biggie.

Their physical prowess and cynical play will always be feared, but from what I've seen from them this season, their attack just doesn't look very potent at all. I suppose all of those seasons of punching above their weight and hardly winning anything has taken it's toll on their morale.

They think is though teams will play often like that us vs, the top teams are being to position and pressure us effectively and they have shown in so games they have trouble coping. For Gomez lets hope he just needs time to keep adapting and good enough to get used to it... but Roberto's sake hes been at Barca for so long and I dont rate him at our RB position, at least defensively and overall consistently. We have been extremely lucky in the tie so far but clearly its either Enrique makes some adjustments if he still so more to help him in tough games, or improve him more, or to get a better replacement. Otherwise we will keep seeing games like these where oppositions attack that side and give us trouble.

Roberto was amazing first half of the season as RB, don't know what happened, probably why Vidal is starting lately.

Godin injured.

Ref with corrupt decision. What the hell is this, where's FBI investigating FIFA, who is controlled by Perez?

3-1 when this referee entered in Real Madrid referee list.

WTF? Was Vidal coming on for Roberto anyone know? If so just too late

Lucky the lines up on our side?

Gil Manzano enters in list of Real Madrid referees, not that it's anykind of surprise as all young refs are chosen by corrupt RREF.

He was great for a few games and deceived everyone thought it was going to be that way period, but time quickly showed hes no Alves level obviously, no where near.

Torres off has me more worried than the red card Funny Simeone keeping faith with him for so long.

He was great as RB period.

Yellows only for Barca today. Colored by some reds.

One of the bggest corrupt ref jobs Barca has had against this week.

Ref getting another call from Perez lmao.
