I feel like Liverpool can beat any team in a 2 game series. Their top level is pretty amazing.

They havent been particularly amazing since the new year, but this game was particularly bad.

And if you watch the game, Roma played their hearts out from minute one and Barca just showed up and expected to win.

Expecting to get bailed out by Messi or Roma to fuck something up. Cant do that at this level.

Roma gave them no ins, controlled the game, won every single 50-50. Completely deserved.

Any reason for Barca's fall in form? They surely have all the motivation in the world to redeem themselves in the CL after last year?

Wow Roma! They have a real chance of getting to the finals if they avoid Real Madrid. I feel Bayern would be an even game for them due to Roma can defend well when needed, not all the time though and have goals in them. Vs Liverpool might not be favourites on paper but for me their ability to defend and not concede and have a threat with Dzeko up front makes them very dangerous to them. However vs Ronaldo FC i can't see them stopping those galacticos as Ronaldo just turns up and does stuff and its game over.

I don't think they have been that great all along. They dominated laLiga because Real played their worst first half in probably ever and they had/have a good defense with Ter Steegen peaking behind it.

Just to point out, Paulinho was probably the biggest reason behind Messi that they were performing as well in the first place and that says much more about the rest of the team than about him being better than expected.

I think a large part of it is the way they are being coached. They are a bit to deep into the conservative Mou style pragmatism.

Todays game is a good example. They came to defend a lead, not win a game.

The shape was passive, the pressing, the intensity none of it was there because they wanted to sit back and let Roma play and "something would work out." They didnt even imagine that Roma would be able to score 3 goals against them.

They are doing this in the league aswell since they got a lead at the turn of the year there and in that case Messi keeps bailing them out but Messi wont win you games on his own against quality teams as consistently as he will in the league. Definitely not in the CL.

With the way the players and squad is built I would much rather lose like City did then the way they did today. Atleast in that case 2 teams are playing football.

roma almost screwed it up 91st minute tho. i still dont get why players keep on stop playing just because they think its offside. the ref didnt call anything, keep playing!

both runaway leaders in PL and la liga bombing out, juve leaders in serie A most likely out, would be hilarious if bayern lose tomorrow too
