Arguably, even Guler melted there. These guys aren't ready yet, and while I feel like Guler will have a very different trajectory compared to Endrick, they just aren't there yet. People mention Barca players all they want but they grew up there and have faced Madrid a thousand times already at various age and competition levels. We lost a lot of maturity over the years.
Yep, like I said, this is not the KCM + BBC team anymore. At the same time, most of these players have already won 2 UCLs and should show more maturity. Let's see what a new coach and system can offer them.
These guys showed no passion! Meanwhile Asencio and Valverde on whichever Barca player had the ball: Sabu takes WWE/ECW to the extreme. (2005 - 2007) ☠️👑 pic.twitter.com/mhLNs9obiH— Vintage Puroresu プロレス (@vintagepuro) May 11, 2025
Jude and Arda can but how many players can you do that away from if you’re being swarmed with no alternative?
As I said, I'm incredibly calm because this is a frankenstein monster of a roster that almost took it to the house for three titles. We need to make improvements, and the change is needed to clean house. But Carlo deserves a ton of respect. I don't think for a minute another coach wins with this team. Losing "nicer" is irrelevant to me. Not worth any time. Moving forward I almost feel we'd be doing him a favor to replace him. What's coming isn't going to be any easier.
Very logical and well deserved title by Barca. 1. Our players don't know what to do on the pitch 2. We have a serious lack of quality at the back (duh)... my word watching LV and Fran at this level is absolutely criminal..... 3. Players are tired and over it. Happy the season is pretty much over. Have the surgeries, rest players etc. We get Xabi and new weapons and return. Very happy we signed Mbappe an absolute monster. We get the right team behind this guy and sky is the limit. Hala Madrid
That's Carlo's saving grace.....honestly you CANNOT win with this defensive talent at this level. It's impossible.
Great comeback. So is Dani, Nacho, Joselu, Raul and and and. We praise Barca for integrating their youth early but god forbid the club is criticized for not doing that to our players. And you get silly comments like the
Three goals puts Kylian Mbappé in the history books as the first man to score a hat-trick in the Clásico and lose. Yeah, okay. Mbappe didn't do enough... Meanwhile Vini plays golf.
Barca had 120 minutes vs Inter. Lost the game. Hurt., RM had 1week preparation. Yet, they manage to score us 4 goals in one half
At some point, it felt like they were playing 20 against 10. We couldn't connect a pass. Ridiculous from everyone involved.

the real heroes for us today were Tchouameni and Asencio..... imagine being them and having to rely on Fran and Lucas lol... I thought they did their best....especially Tchouameni who is playing out of position.
Season feels like a close of an incredible cycle, we’re spoiled. This new crew needs to learn what it takes to win whatever that means. Missing some on field leadership too.
I thought Tchoumeni was horrible. Was way too passive and showed no aggression to close down the 18 yard box on multiple occasions. Didn’t offer anything with the ball when we were pinned back. Asensio wasn’t much better.
my point is that he is out of position fighting fires everywhere. but yes it wasn't a great performance of course.
