Look at him. He's the second coming of Toulalan.

He's been lying about his age like them "18 year old" Africans. @Bianconeri81
:klin: Iniesta "old face syndrome" will definitely need to be kept quiet. Rakitic has been sub-par this season (probably has to do with his tepid relationship with Enrique), and Busquets being suspended in the 1st leg is significant. We need to win the 1st game at home. 2-1 will do :donedeal:

Dont know if mentioned before but El Clasico is april 23 maybe that can help us someway :)
Considering they are second yet still in the race then hopefully Barca's league commitments will tire/ distract them at least a bit. We have the advantage of another season of no serious domestic competition to distract us

Their midfield is shit without a performing Iniesta.

Only problem is Iniesta always performs in big games
Park the bus and allow iniesta time on the ball, and he will find new and exciting ways to get that front 3 through the defence.


However, play a very hard physical game against the cm's, and have your wingers commit consistantly in going down the flank at any given opportunity, and Iniesta will struggle, meaning barcelona will struggle. Just make sure they cant counter through the center.



PSG's first game was textbook. Hard physical midfield play and a genious deep playmaker able to pass in the space between defence and midfield with no time at all, having the CF stretch the defensive line and the wingers go down the flanks.


In fact, having Dybala operate behind that midfield, would be key.





Just dont park the fucking buss
