Now Barca might have to do without Messi.



La Liga could, for a few weeks, be a normal league.

Greizman I guess.

Transfermarkt says Coutinho and Griezman are tied for 2nd in market value, followed by Bale and then it's already Busquets.

Looking at the league table, Alaves could be major threat though

Honestly I have no idea if this Barça can beat Madrid. The 4-2 vs Sevilla is kind of a miracle. Early goals thanks to Messi genius, then Ter Stegen saving everything. The team plays so bad it's sad to see.

I'm guessing that you don't watch the matches of Madrid. Barca willl have no problems with them in their current state. We are talking about a team that scored 1 goal in 5 matches and didn't manage to get a point in their last 3 matches against football giants like CSKA, Alaves and Levante.
Last game they had their entire playmaking power on the field(Isco, Modric and Marcelo) and scored once.
So yeah, Barca are fine.

I saw the Madrid game, aside from the first 20 mins of Brain fading they were pretty unlucky. Granted you can only say unlucky so long, but they were really unlucky..

On the other hand Barca had the same brain fades and got bailed out by Messi magic, and Ter Stegen. The scoreline is super inflated because Sevilla were really good. Had Barca on the ropes alot even after being down 2-0.

Barca are certainly less flawed, but there are enough weaknesses there for Real to exploit. I wouldnt be surprised with any result really.

This has to be a joke

I mean of course Madrid can win, but seriously, Real Madrid is awful.

La liga table is hilarious right now, Barcelona with one point above Espanyol and Alavés:

First, it'll be easier for them to be highly motivated against a big team than Alaves (just see the Roma game), and also they create a lot of chances. They're not good, but neither is Barça which concedes stupid goals and can't control the game every single game. I'd still put Barça favorite but it will be far from a walk in the park. Put Pep or Luis Enrique's team and then alright, I'd have been scared if I were a Madrid fan. On top of that no Messi.

Think it was Ashley Young's fault for not covering Luiz, Smalling had to cover the other guy and lost the header. Good save from De Gea from Rudiger's follow up but the whole team switched off and open goal from Barkley.

it was pretty chaotic though ...i actually don't blame them for that goal, it was painful but quite understandable ... normally we criticise the defending team for not being "switch-on" enough but you have to also consider that the attacking team at that point was also giving 120% to find an equaliser..

the first goal conceded though was pretty avoidable, but mad props for Chelsea for executing a perfect set piece... you could see how Luiz and Rudiger signaled one another before the latter made his run ... very well organised goal ...

good spirit from the boys in the 2nd half which can be somewhat a concern .. it's like they need to be pushed to a point where its a goal or two down before they can start playing aggressive football ...

Arsenal are carrying all the luck they had been missing under Wenger (and it really is only luck that they are not 0-2 behind with 10 men)

Yeah that was perfect football. It's been a while for me since I last saw that from Arsenal, I'm glad Emery is looking like a solid replacement.
