Lobato Rafinha Deulofeu

Lobato Out Cuenca IN! 62'

Espinosaaa IN Carmona Out! 79'

Thanks for the updates!

This team is going to have absolutely no problem to stay in second division. And they are still missing Sergi Roberto, Montoya, Soriano, Kiko Femenia, Planas, and perhaps Keirrison! If Soriano stays or Keirrison joins, Barça B to win the league! (although Rafinha as fake 9 will do a great job too).

Ps.And most of the players were jet lagged.

Tomorrow Espanyol will crush us though. Osvaldo to score 2 at least.

We played with

Dalmau - Gomez - Rosell - Balliu

All 19 years old players, just promoted to Barca B! i was really impressed by Dalmau & Balliu! although they need to get better physically!

Gomez was sold, made some great interceptions including one of the goalline! Mino made @ least3 or 4 great saves!

Rafinha & Deulofeu played in 2nd half.. this is when Barca started playing better, more possesison & more chances.. both were fine, but still expect alot better from them.. but team played better with Carmona in midfield & both (Deulofeu/Rafinha upfront).. Rafinha is back from injury so hope he keeps improving & get 100% fit!

like u said, with players like Sergi Roberto, Kiko, Bartra, Tello, Planas, Montoya etc.. This team will be gd enough to make another great season in Segunda!

Tomorrow (9/8/2011) Barcelona vs Espanyol " Copa Catalunya Final "
@ 21:45 PM BarcelonaTime (+2 GMT) !

Espinosa is useless defensively... needs to improve a lot in that department.
But seriously, the amount of talent and depth Barça B has is incredible.

I think we should wait for next season to Judge the Barca U-19 Players.. Just look @ Tello, how much he improved towards the end of last season & this summer with Spain u-20!

Playing @ Barca "B" in Segunda will help Balliu, Dalmau, Gomez, Rosell, Gustavo, Deulofeu, Espinosa & Rafinha Improve alot.. especially Physically !!

I'm judging Espinosa as he is right now, and right now he is the worst CM when it comes to defend I've seen in a while. But he can improve a lot, he is very young and weak.

Espinosa played for just 10 minutes today:) he was fine in the audi cup & us tour in few minutes he played..
this season with Barca "B", i'm sure he will improve alot!

btw i hope, Guardiola gives another chance for Mino.. he was great today..

Catalan Cup final vs Espanyol tonight @21:45

Line-up Predictions:

Mino

Balliu - Gomez - Armando - Lobato "Grimaldo:P"

Riverola - JDS - Carmona

Cuenca - Saul - Deulofeu

GrimaldoOoOoOo becomes the youngest player Ever to play for first Team @ age of 15 !!!

Official starting line-up vs Espanyol:

Oier
Armando Gomez Rosell Grimaldo
Rafinha Gustavo Espinosa
Cuenca Saul Deulofeu

Ooooh, what a play by deulofeu that missed from a tight angle after dribling a defender and the GK!

I don't like Saul, a bit slow.

:S:S it would have been a great goal .. Deulito <3

agree about Saul:)

Grimaldo is having a decent match not bad for 15 years old !
Rafinha is fine, expect more from him..
Espinosa is realy gd !

0-0 HT!

Armando was bad in both goals goals.

Dongou is getting in!!

69' still 2-0 for Espanyol!

Deulofeu is destroying Espanyol's defence, but failing the final pass/shot.

Oier is not good enough with the ball at his feet for our style...

Wow, this Thievy Bifouma is very good.
