    Barcelona defender Javier Mascherano was able to train on Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against Leganes. Mascherano, one of the players, along with Aleix Vidal, is one of the first team players Luis Enrique currently has sidelined. The Argentine was on the pitch at the Ciutat Esportiva minutes before his team-mates, doing a number of exercises with the ball with some of the coaches. When the rest of his team-mates came out, Mascherano greeted them and then headed inside to do some gym work. Arda Turan was able to take part in the session and could return on Sunday and Carles Alena also took part in the session. One player who will be missing on Sunday is Sergio Busquets, who's suspended after picking up his fifth booking last weekend.

    Unlike what Sport predicts, I'd love to see Pique rested, Ini rested, and one of MSN rested. Start Umtiti, Denis and Paco instead, time to charge up now or not at all. 4-1.

    No Iniesta?! lol

    He needs to get back into the rhythm and this is a perfect match to prepare for the ATM game. So the starting line up should be almost the same as next game starting line up. Lucho still rotating for what? We only have the league games for now.

    That should be a wake up call, fantastic save by MATS. Sloppy by Barca.

    Neymar with some skills but no result..

    Iniesta in at halftime, he needs to get back into rhythm, Luchos choices don't make sense unless he's not fully fit which then otherwise would question whey he even played in Paris.

    MATS!! Best in Barca so far!

    HT: 1-0.

    Extremely fortunate deflection and save from MATS preserves our lead.

    Players don't look like they have the motivation to play. Very sloppy performance.

    Some whistling towards the end of the half. One gets the feeling that the longer it stays 1-0 the more the faithful will want to do a pañolada.

    Rafinha isn't a midfielder , Denis is but who gets to start .. Gomes already have no understanding with anyone in the midfield or front but Lucho decides to play him as DM again even though he can't defend for shits ..

    we could've been a couple of goals down in the first half alone against a weak team ( 17th in la liga ) because of the unnecessary changes in midfield and defense again , as expected from Lucho new week , new game , new formation.

    Let there be no doubt , Gomes WILL start against PSG and we all know what the result will be , the only thing we don't know is what new formation this retard of a coach will use in the next game ...

    another example of shit defending from "pro" players

    either Matthiu should have been aware that a player was behind him or Digne shoud have been in line with his defenders and thus made Levante player offside

    You are something really! lol

    Another example how the extreme rotation is killing any chemistry between the players. Forget the defense, are you happy with our midfield and attack?

    I remember the Barcelona I like after any defeat, they come back firing on all cylinders to make a statement. The statement they made so far is load and clear if you still didn't get it.

    Craperto strikes again :thumbsup: ( and from the replay Gomshit didn't even bother trying to block that shot )

    amazing how many chances Leganes had so far , we are lucky we aren't 5 goals down by now , god help us against PSG , Lucho as usual stand up and start walking around nervously without making a sub as usual :cautious:

    Lucho should have been fired after PSG game, board are stupid not to act fast enough and they'll pay the price. He's lost all connection with the players..

    dude at some point players have to take some responsibility yeah?

    this is not a pick up game where no one knows the other guy

    that play that you posted did not require years of chemistry just simple communication

    I am shitty at the players so no I am not happy with whats going on the pitch
