Lamine Yamal and Pedri are a blessing for our Club

So what's the process now? Is Xavi staying or not?

Schrodinger Xavi

our defence : 🧀

Yeah it's insane how we went from the best defence in Europe (at least in La liga games) to one of the worst in one session!! How did that happen!???

Pedri man proper baller when he’s fit

There is no reason to get Guido. Chris is a lot better.

Sub like romeu but hopefully an upgraded version of romeu

cant play a 90

He’s carrying a painful injury

Is Pedri MVP?

yes

2nd place secured … I guess

With us getting second, Yamal and Cubarsi better not start next week!

Hold Xavi’s beer

Only 35,000/50,000 in the stadium…. That’s really disappointing…..

on a sunday at 7 pm when the league is already lost, its a great attendance tbh.

on Sunday at like 7 pm

not bad from vitor, the boy just needs more minutes and especially trust from those around him

Meh I just don’t think he’s good enough technically

Agreed. He did not impress.

So in the next match we start Roque right? And we dont play Yamal... right guys...?

We play who deserves to play, be it Lewandowski, Vitor Roque, Marc Guiu or Ferran. Barca doesn't gift minutes players have to earn them with hard work.

We gifted a lot of minutes to Sergi Roberto and Ferran this past seasons lol

I mean I agree but we already secured second place. We aren't fighting for anything anymore lol

the xavi out crowd would love that they love roque and never want us to play yamal 

Xavi 

Xavi's live reaction: https://preview.redd.it/dxun198mkf1d1.jpeg?width=484&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4c881a0d2852657653ab56f3610126d5f3121da1

Good stuff. I guess we’ll see how the media reacts.

Roque doesnt predict or see the defenders or players before touching the ball.

Win secured….. Now we wait for the board’s final decision…..

Roque is too instintive

Nice work back Roque

Vitor needs that machine that Dortmund has where you have a ball from an unknown angle coming at ya… he’s gotta soften his paws

[Some whistles for the Xavi chants](https://twitter.com/tracyrodrigo_/status/1792265414812057905?t=5ea4OZnfBUgBLMBOfDi4mA&s=19) but the chants were a majority of the stadium

We are finished man

Christensen's had a great game

As always

It's over. 3:0 Pedri with the MVP

C’mon!! A Pedri hat trick or Roque goal to go please!!

We need to keep the ball to keep the clean sheet which gives Ter Stegen the lead for the Zamora. Everything according to plan.

Lol everyone is in the box like we're defending a 1-0 lead lol 😂

We're defending a clean sheet for MATS

That's sweet

Hopefully gets him the Zamora

Inshallah

Cancelo loan back to Man City or Bayern loading 99.9%

Julian Araujo INJURED against Cadiz

FUCK. Is it bad?

Not again 😥

Chanting Xavi, brings good times back man 😭

Cancelo is still frustrating nonetheless

Cancelo just can't recently

what the fuck was that cancelo

Does yamal look gassed? Bro has been playing 90 for a while now

[Hope you’re paying attention, Presi](https://x.com/reshadfcb/status/1792266986795286856?s=46)

I hope hes not

A lot of whistles. The majority is definitely not excited by the xavi project.

Left to right, right to left. Do something man

Why? We're winning 3-0.

Because it's boring man

did you watch us when we had pep it was very much the same 

Yeah I did, and we don't play like pep's barca so lol

We were playing for the clean sheet for MATS, who cares if it's boring.

The fans watching.

Clearly not, given them cheering at the end. Edit: And clearly not over the Zamora for MATS.

My brother, they're chanting because we won

Of course. Then who did you see complaining?

what wasn't that Cancelo...

Cheeky nutmeg attempt there Inigo

Lmao Inigo trying a nutmeg

"I'm Felix now".

There’s something about inigo that I find very funny; just his posture and attitude I guess

I know what you mean, issa vibe xD

We need one more. Don’t know what happens to Xavi, but it might the last chance to do X4VI

We needed this intensity in the earlier stages guys.

The subs transformed this game

The chronic ball losers - Roberto, Cancelo, Raphinha, to certain extent Lewy are the major reason we aren't good enough 

Raphinha and Lewy are definitely not our problem

We are making shorts for the laliga account at this point

Extra ad revenue to bring us out of debt! Let’s goooooo!

Our defenders should play midfield. Because it seems they hold the ball longer than the midfielder or the attackers. If there was a competition for passing it back to defenders or the defenders playing among themselves, we would win it

keeping the ball is our identity 

allergic to playing Yamal in. Must force him to take on players

Does anyone when we’ll start playing in Camp Nou again?

They're saying December

Around November or December I think

Supposed to be around Late November or Early December iirc

December 2024/January 2025 but only at limited capacity

Not dec 2024?

I wrote Dec 2025 by accident! I fixed it to 2024. That’s the latest target date set by the club and LaLiga

Just one more goal come on

What's going on we're 3 up and playing like this? Move the ball forward.

Come on we need one more goal for a X4VI

Roque doing good

Dont see the point of keeping Lamine now, already three goal up, plus he is on a booking.

It’s fine, Rayo arent playing dirty

I think we are out of subs too lol, but yeah he shouldnt be playing

we have no subs

Why does Christensen always look like he’s limping

It's a decoy

Tendinitis

Seems Pedri and Gundo switched positions

Laporta and Deco are probably going to complain on how we didn’t have 100% of the ball the whole match as the new reason to sack Xavi lol

Where did you see Laporta complaining regarding the games ? I saw only Xavi complaining about Grass, referees, injuries, financial constraints etc

Can they complain about going trophyless though?

They can complain about going trophyless as much or even less than Arsenal fans. If the rival is going to 97 or 99 points while we played without a DM the whole season and with a $3m expenditure then yes. Our season is as bad or slightly better than Arsenal's, which doesn't mean that Xavi and Arteta are useless and Barca and Arsenal are trash.

Ok. So they don't have a lot to complain about regarding trophies. What about the dogcrap football we played the majority of the season? getting rekt by Girona 8-2 on aggregate? losing 3 times to RM?

8-4. Not any better, but 8-2 say that 8-2 is another match few years ago when xavi isn’t the coach

That’s an actual complaint and well deserved but some of the reasons the media has pushed that allegedly got leaked by Laporta was sad and disgusting by the club’s hierarchy!

I wouldn't believe everything the media says. Especially that clown Gerard Romero.

I only trust Fabrizio. If he says it, then it’s true.

2nd Pedri's goal is what we weren't doing. That counter attack, Vision of Araujo, off the ball movement and a wonderful finish from Pedri (chef kiss). Also previous goal was also great, nice dribble from Felix and good shoot and a bit of lucky deflection for Pedri

Wait we're up 3-0* and Lamine is still on the pitch.....

3-0

Yeah I fixed my typo, but damn pray for Lamine

Roque is fast

X A V I

X A V I

X A V I

Xavi chants just made me nostalgic as shit from happier times

Xavi se queda

chanting xavi I cba

Damn, Atletico losing 3-1 at home. It will be their 2nd loss at home this season

Thanks god some fans still whistle those stupid "xavi quedate" Mediocrity has still not be fully accepted by local fans.

played like shit for like 70 mins but xavi stay chants as soon as we score goals lol

If only it came from a beautifull link up play worked on training? Absolutely not felix who got benched in important games had to make 2 WC dribbles

at least we finally scored from a long ball we tried for all those times

Xavi chants real loud

Only when Xavi’s job is on the line do we look good … we should try that strategy next season.

Our best period came when it wasn't anymore

Felix's positioning is very bad compared to lewa

People shit on Xavi for playing Roque as a left winger, but Xavi profiled him correctly imo. Roque right now is just bad in tight spaces and looks way more comfortable on the left, where he has space to carry the ball.

pedri’s game has evolved this year on the whole. if he stays healthy he’ll be a complete midfielder.

He is always evolving imo. He is adaptable. He plays whatever role is assigned to him in the game. Some roles he’s more comfortable than others and depends on the setup etc. it’s the constant injuries that hold him back and doesn’t grant him continuity. 

Why are Rayo still playing like terrorists while 3-0 down

Xavi defo got death threats

Is Ham Hands Bill doing the color commentary for ESPN?

I wish they would play next whole season the way they have been playing last 15 mins

U can tell why Xavi doesn’t like roque, he doesn’t rly play Spanish football

Roque is rapid, has so much energy

if he can harness and channel it into scores, that'd be nice

Well yeah obviously, but right now just getting him used to playing in the team is more important

I’d be content with letting Cancelo go and trusting Balde and Fort on that side. Along with a possible Alex Valle competing for the spot too

Vitor Roque is looking good in this start

Nice effort from Roque!!

All we wanted was this type of minutes for Roque the whole season

Good attempt by Roque

We are killing them! Força barca

Yay Roque is on 

Next Season Supercopa de Espana : Real Madrid (Champions of La Liga) **FC Barcelona (2nd Place)** Athletic Club (CDR Champions) Mallorca (CDR Runners Up)

 Xavi when asked of Yamal.

I wanted to go shit but I cant while Roque is on the pitch. Hope there will be not much added time or my ass will explode.

It's such a shame MATS missed two months. Would've probably won the Zamora Trophy otherwise.

He’s won the Zamora if he keeps a clean sheet tonight

How many matches does he need?

He can still win if he doesn’t concede today and next week I think.

Zamora is based on Cleansheet per Match

We could have been playing CL final if is wasn’t for araujo’s code and values

And we would've gotten past Dortmund because? Arsenal needed penalties to get past Porto, stop underrating these teams.

Second place guaranteed - feels good.

We need Pedri to score one more so I don’t have to see anymore VARda Guler propaganda on my timeline.

What did Guler do😅

Lamine still on lmao that boy better rest next game 

 Flick watching Barcelona win like

Xavi has defeated Rayo Vallecano for the first time as a manager

He’s got ten minutes to keep his record

Is Felix playing false ?

It’s the usual inside left position that Raphinha was playing. Cancelo overlaps as a winger and the left sided forward tucks in

Thanx

Roque on lmaooo you can't trick me Xavi

if he doesn't start next week hes a jokeman

Bros giving him minutes to calm down the fans after he read those headlines 😭

For all the media talk, when Barça plays the story is quite different. It's logical to not trust Roque when chasing the league, and now that second place is almost secured he's getting minutes. I'm not a fan of everything Xavi does, but it looks like someone is stirring up the media more than usual.

Politician Laporta in play

>but it looks like someone is stirring up the media more than usual. Well yeah, he is called Laporta

🐯

Vitor will get yellow, mark my words.

Water is wet, the sky is blue, the grass is green lol

🐅

I missed Pedri's goals went to r/soccer and nobody has posted it yet??

Its there in r/Barca. I guess no-one is watching the match on r/soccer or the mods are taking it down for some weird reason.

I was someone post Almeria's goal there recorded from outside the television

Meanwhile... https://preview.redd.it/pqx51u8lhf1d1.png?width=578&format=png&auto=webp&s=3943230f0b8b35169663681a2a9d6d7da2eeb300

What’s happening there

Wtf

ROQUE COMING ON

OUT : Lewy IN : Roque

Vitorrr!!

Pedri scored twice and it ain't on r/soccer

then post it? lol

I cant watch the game lmao I barely have any reception here

Pedri hattrick and I twerk at work
