Just saw the news :nervous: its an ok draw i guess, Bayern would definitely have been worse to get. Obviously this isnt the same barcelona of the past few years but what worries me a bit is they will probably be on a high after that insane comeback against PSG (and the questionable officiatibg we could face).

I blame PSG for this....french cunts should have gotten rid of Barca cunts last round and prevented this:D

The 4 goals in 4 home games in CL does look bad on paper, but we will get more space against this barca. We need to practise our counters more often from now till the barca game. Atletico have time and time again been the nemesis for this barca, we can certainly learn a lot from them. A lot has changed since 2015. We got this. :allegri:
Mostly for us and I think we had a better team back in 2015.

They are favorites and it's more likely Barca to make the semis.
We're strong, too. And we're not too different from Inter 2010, Chelsea 2012 and Atletico 2014, 2016, who managed to eliminate Barca while being the outsider.

Ok. Just to make it clear. There is some fake news here...

Suspended in first leg:
Fucking Busquets

Could miss second leg, if get booked in first leg:
Cuadrado
Rakitic
Neymar
Pique
@zizinho @BayernFan
i was wrong about Higuain, i checked again and i counted one yellow from Mandzu as his. but why Neymar? he has 4 yellows so far, after the 3rd he was suspended so now he has 1 again? maybe im missing something. Rakitic too btw, i was wrong about him too. same as Neymar, he had 3, was suspended for Gladbach, now has 1 again :boh:

No, neymar and Rakitic have both 4 yellows. You get suspended after 3,5,7,9.. yellow cards. So if Rakitic or Neymar get booked, they get suspended for the second leg
Nope, Neymar needs one more to be suspended.

"from the first match in the group stage, a player is suspended for the next
competition match after three cautions in three different matches, as well as
following any subsequent odd-numbered caution (fifth, seventh, ninth, etc.)."

Rakitic and Neymar already served a suspension, but after that they got 1 more yellow, which means that both are a yellow away from suspension.

As for the rest, Busquets is suspended for the first leg, while Pique is on 2 yellows so far.

It would be nice if Neymar, Pique and Rakitic all get a yellow in Turin :D
OK, this makes it clear, i thought every 3rd yellow gets you suspended :D

I actually think it's better to get the home leg out of the way first. In the second leg, since you're not afraid of conceding away goals, you can play more freely.
This. Plus if extra time we get 30mins extra with chance of away goals but the main point is being able to pay more freely without the fear if conceding away goals which basicaly count as 1.5

I prefer other way around, we all saw how much of a difference the home fans made in the second leg against psg. PSG had very little of the ball at barcas ground to make anything from it. We will get our chances but will have to be clinical.

Not the ideal draw but I'm sort of glad we got these bitches.

We got everything to beat them and go through.

I also hope Dybala scores the winning penalty from a Dani Alves dive.

Manbro and alex sandro will have to be on fire to stop Messi. Its a big test but they habe the tools to break him down shut him out. They are going to be really important.
Worth noting that Messi has played centrally recently. Rafinha plays wide right and Neymar wide left for them after they changed their formation.

Bad draw but if we win, it means we have went up a level. If we dont then we still cannot match barca at their most vulnerable state in years (assuming they dont suddenly turn consistent.
