Marco Verratti's game by numbers vs Barcelona:

90% pass accuracy
50 passes
4 tackles won
2 chances created
1 assist

Top-class performance.

Don't want to take anything away from PSG but Barcelona's midfield was like a 10 lane highway. I was just imagining Dybala running through that with Cuadrado on the right and Higuain upfront.

Barca won't turn it around, not even close.

They're not the same team of the last decade. Which is reflected on their average squad and their shitty transfer windows of recent years. Plus, Enrique is clueless.

Barca needs 3 new midfield signings.

Busquets absolutely exposed when he doesn't have 10 other players pressing the other team to pieces in front of him.

Andre Gomes is the opposite of a Barca player. Iniesta is past it.

Rafinha, Suarez, Sergi whoever are all trash.

If PSG play pussy tactics and try to defend that lead, they'll be in for a long night otherwise I think they'll do just fine.

Yep. All the top teams have weaknesses (obviously us included) no real reason to be scared of any team.
Obviously a bit too early but no big team so far is playing the kind of football which is making other teams poop in their pants. All of Madrid, Barca and Bayern have looked pretty ordinary on many occasions. From Juve's perspective, no reason to fear Madrid as we always beat them and Bayern are still relying on their old guard to bail them out.
I really think this should be the year where none of these above three is gonna lift the CL imo.
