As much as people love him here, he was really hampering our development in the CL. His interviews and tactics were clear indication he was not ready for it. He didnt had the correct approach. His excuses were absurd and a desperate effort to not embrace responsability.
We showed that with porto
Now is time to kick them in the ass and put an end to their reign, with a morale destroying win. If we can defend properly and counter them..we will score.
Also we need to limit the referee´s influence as much as we can...he wil be the real barcelona mvp, not messi or neymar
Just for reference....Barcelona's home record in the Champions League this year:
Barcelona 7 - Celtic 0
Barcelona 4 - Man City 0
Barcelona 4 - Monchengladbach 0
Barcelona 6 - PSG 1
So, so far in the champions league they have only conceded 1 goal at home and on average have scored over 5 goals. All 4 of their home results would be satisfactory in order for them to get to the semi finals.
This barca team may not be as good as Guardiola's one (which was overall much more complete and hard working). However, this Barca team has goals in them.
Make no mistake. This is still a VERY difficult match for us. We need to score twice as Allegri said. Sitting back and going for the break is something that I think all 4 of their opponents have tried. We need to be balanced and look to attack when needed just like we did in the 1st leg - We have to IGNORE Camp Nou and assume its just any other game.

I dont even think we need to score twice, but one would suffice if we mimic the game we did in turin.
About the results you showed, yes is scary, but we need to take in account that Juventus is better than those 4 teams, and 2 of them were practically way out of their league in camp nou.
Im positive that Barcelona will not run with the same luck as in those games...as they will be facing a much more complicated enemy in Juve.
IMO, if we do our game..only the referee and a major coup can save them.

Agree. I have to mention again. In the first leg, during the second half, they changed to 3-4-3 and we really became under pressure. They almost created two one on ones with Suarez, and an almost clear header for Umtiti.
We actually can't sit back and play counter attack. We have to attack and press from the get-go. Put in tackles in our own attacking third.

Of course it is. They have best trio in front and the entire UEFA in their pocket with a fanbase quite ignorance that don't care if everyone think they r a fraud. They just keep doing the same shit over and over again (specially diving and red cards to rivals)
That's why we have to beat them for the good of this game, enough BS.

That's what Allegri have to work. Of course we have to try to keep a clean sheet but it would be to hard to do, IMO the most important thing is to convince everyone that Farca may score us, even early in the game, but they are VERY weak in the back and mentally so it doesn't matter if we get two goals, we SHOULD be able to score them because our attack is way way way way better that their defense.
Option 1. Keep a clean sheet and get a tie
Option 2. Keep a clean sheet and break their weak back several times
Option 3. We concede, they attack everywhere with everyone with a lot of space in the back so it's all up to us to BEAT their asses and take them back to their laundry and tax fraud activities

tomorrow Barca will look at that field and see a huge swimming pool where they will all dive into for 90 minutes. BEWARE of the Olympic gold medalists in diving called Neymar and Suarez, especially by the Juve diving board (goal). Don't give them cheap PKs, that will be their lifeline if they get them. HIT THEM HARD on the counter and kill them off quick! They will throw everything and the kitchen sink at us, we need fast and decisive counters!
