Bonucci shaky against suarez iirc..

In another game Suarez would scored twice because of Bonuccis jittery defending.

yep. couple of situations where we looked vulnerable because of him. im starting to think we should start Barzagli in the return leg because hes quicker and more of a natural defender

Na. Bonucci playing out the ball from the back will be crucial for an away goal for us. Plenty of space that we can exploit at the Camp Nou.

not saying we should, was just a thought :D

btw Barzagli can pass the ball too, and hes better pure defensively wise than BonBon. on the other hand, Bonucci-Chiellini is the better pairing because they complement each other the most.

ah fuck it, we should go out with the same lineup and try to get an early goal again, then do subs accordingly from halftime on

Barzagli is miles better as a natural defender, but he has been exposed pace-wise a couple of times this season and pitting him against Neymar would be a questionable decision.

My man of the match. Absolute joy to watch him like this.

That tackle on Suarez in our box almost killed me until I realized he took the ball and Suarez remained on his feet. :scared:

I was the first person here that would pick Rugani over Chiellini against Barcelona and he comes out and puts the vintage Chiellini on display like that. It's insane that he can still put out a performance like this. You'd think that his best game nowadays would not be the same as it was 5 years ago, but it is.
