    One more match, one more trophy still in play.

    Likely the last football match, maybe the last event ever at Atletico's old stadium

    Guess who practiced today, 2 months ahead of schedule (though it will still be a miracle if he actually makes the squad much less plays). Aleix Vidal! Ronaldinho also appeared. Alena and Marlon practiced with first team but they are badly needed by Barca B who need to turn around a 0-2 deficit to win a place in Segunda.

    Ending on a nice run for this guy, hopefully going out with a win.

    We will be without some key players: Suarez and Roberto both suspended, MAtS expected to be benched for Jasper in goal. Rafinha injured, Mathieu, Mascherano, and Vidal may also miss through injury. Pique should be back in the squad. Big question is who covers RB with no Roberto, and likely no Vidal or Mascherano. Given Lucho's recent experiments it seems we will either see Gomes or Digne.

    Jasper C
    Gomes (my guess, I'd prefer Digne) - Pique - Umtiti - Alba
    Rakitic - Busi - Ini
    Messi - Alcacer - Neymar

    Copa Golden Boot in play with Messi, Turan, suspended Suarez, and Alaves's Edgar all on 4 goals, 1 behind Sevilla's Ben Yedder. So 3 eligible players need 1 goal to tie or 2 to win it outright.

    Gomes will play right back and he will handle Theo.and cillesen has to keep his Copa SF performance up.

    Paco should take his chances too.

    Alaves are a bunch of dirty cûnts. Then again they have two madridistas in their lineup

    Messi and Neymar both tracking back all the way to the half way line to collect the ball. Uninspired display so far.

    Seriously, we need a creative midfielder desperately. Messi-Neymar are the only ones who create anything consistently. Veratti or Coutinho, please.
