Minu MotM Sevilla vastu:

Selles olukorras oleks võinud Neymar vabalt ühe puutega palli vasakusse alla/üles nurka lüüa, aga miskipärast tahtis Messile tagasi sööta, mis oli ilmselgelt vale otsus.

See oli amatööri sööt - keegi ei võtnud Neymari "löögiüritust" tõsiselt. Barca mängijate puhul meeldib minule just oskus kavatsusi varjata. Eks neid meeldivaid asju ole muidugi veel

Arvatavasti häiris sind sama olukord, mis mindki ja kindlasti paljusid teisigi. Õnneks on sellest olukorrast ka juba gif tehtud.

Täpselt!

[Staadium]

Eile oli Kataloonia raadios kùlas Eric Abidal ja rààkis oma sôprusest Dani Alvesega. Nende vahel on see sôprus rohkem, kui sôprus. Dani on juba endale vôtnud numbri 22, mis kuulus Abile ja olevat talle pakkunud oma osa maksast, kui selleks on vajadus. Loomulikult Abidal sellest keeldus, sest Dani on proffessionaalne sportlane ja selline maksa siirdamine oleks môeldamatu.
Veel rààkis Abidal, et Pep Guardiola olevat teda kutsunud Bayernisse, aga Bayerni arstid ja juhtkond kartis Abidali tervise probleemide pàrast ja tehing jài àra.

20 named for Champions League opener



Tata Martino has named all his available players for Wednesday's meeting with Ajax at the Camp Nou

[1/2] Squad (vs Ajax): Valdes, Pinto, Alves, Montoya, Pique, Bartra, Mascherano, Adriano, Buquets, Song
[2/2] Squad (vs Ajax): Xavi, Dos Santos, Sergi Roberto, Iniesta, Cesc, Pedro, Alexis, Messi, Neymar, Tello

Tata Martino excited about the Champions League

On Wednesday, the manager will be in charge of his first ever Champions League match, and has high hopes for what Barça can achieve.

Tata Martino is about to be inducted into the world of the Champions League, and is thoroughly looking forward to the experience. “For any manager, being in the Champions League means a lot for their careers” he said in his press conference on the eve of the game with Ajax Amsterdam. “We have high hopes for the competition” he added.

On the opposition, Martino commented that “they have an academy that hardly ever changes. It’s a team that is constantly developing and every year they sell off their best players.”

Self-criticism

Martino is not bothered by the criticism the team has faced in recent matches, saying that “it is our obligation to always be self-critical.” He admits that the team is lucky enough to be able to allow some margin for error, but they still need to work to smooth things out, adding that “we are used to criticism, especially because this is a team that has achieved such levels of excellence in recent years”.

But he did comment that “we are still at the learning stage and yet we’re already in a privileged position, having won every game so far”.

Dead ball situations seem to be one area where Barça are lacking of late, and Tata claims that “this isn’t because of zonal or man-to-man marking but because we’re simply not as big. We have to find solutions for that, to make sure we can defend more effectively”.

He also spoke about his rotation style, commenting that “it is harder to rotate Mascherano and Piqué as much as players in other areas of the pitch because they form a defensive triangle along with Valdés”.

Gerard Piqué keen to start Champions League on right foot

The centre back commented that “the team is looking foward to starting this competition because it's the most prestigious”

He added that “we'll try to do well. Barça will be fighting to win the Champions League"

The Camp Nou is the venue on Wednesday night for FC Barcelona’s first game of their Champions League campaign. Gerard Piqué, who has already won the title three times, once with Man United and twice at FCB, said today that “the team are looking forward to starting this competition because it’s the most prestigious. There are some great teams in Europe but we’ll be hoping to do well. Barça will be fighting to win it and it’s essential that we get off on the right foot.”

Unchanging style

He went on to say that “there’s no negotiating our style of play. This way of playing has done us good, but in the last two or three seasons teams have worked out what we do. We have to come up with variants and different ways of attacking. It’s the only way we know how to play. We don’t know how to defend a scoreline. When you’re out on the pitch, these things are difficult. We could do things better, but at the end of the day we have won all four league games and the Spanish Supercup … Under Tata Martino we’re learning new ideas. We need to find the right balance and know when we need to be more direct and when we should play the way we always have done”.

Piqué was asked about his fitness, and replied that “I’m feeling okay, but more is always asked of people playing in defence. In some parts of the game we never stop running up and down the pitch. But I’m feeling fit”.

Liga marks the way

Piqué then compared the relative importance of the Champions League and the domestic title. He commented that “it’s the Liga that dictates the way you’re playing, and whether you have got things right or not. Last season, Bayern Munich were much better than us. We have to face the facts. But we had a great season, winning the league with 15 points more than Madrid and getting 100 points.”

Puyol welcome back

Carles Puyol trained today and looks like he could be returning to active duty very shortly. Said Piqué, “there is still some recovering for Puyol to do. He’s still getting back into his game but when he’s fit again, Tata will be using him more. A team always needs its captain. He’s a great professional and a very good friend of mine. The team has managed to get by without him for months, but with him in the side we’re always that little bit better.”

Kurb uudis. The father of Barcelona coach Tata Martino has passed away. He will travel to Argentina after tomorrow's game against Ajax.

TV6 kannab mängu ka üle!

[BCfey]

Hea näha Fabregast sellises mängus Xavi asemel alustamas. Oli ka aeg, et meie nr.6 sellises mängus oma jalgu säästab.

[xavic]

Hea algkoosseis!

[Diz]

Peab meeldima kui Fabregas sees on.
Montoya võiks ka mängida saada...vähemalt 30min

[affelay]

Üsna halb mäng Barca poolt ikka siiani olnud! (kui värav välja arvata)

[Staadium]

Kuni 22. minutini oli palli valdamine 70-30 Barcale. Peale messi vàravat langes see 57-43. Kuskil on midagi màda, vôi siis têsti asus Ajax rohkem peale suruma. Màngu pilt tegelt pole ilus ja see mida sooviksin nàha!
Messilt on see 60. vàrav CL'is!

[Diz]

Oi kuidas ma kardan seda viimast 15minutit. Hea oleks kui täna suudaks 90min vastu pidada ikka...
Aga mäng on suhteliselt niru hetkel.

Niru on veel hästi öeldud sellise jama mängu kohta. Vale sööte on sama palju, kui tähti taevas.
