Strange line up by pep…really hope thiago and sergi have a great game

I wouldn't say the lineup is strange

I would say, however, that the midfield could’ve be stronger. Osasuna isn’t that bad so we really need Thiago and Sergi to have a good game.

Last time Sergi played he had a good game

he is more dynamic than Thiago or Cesc, good to see Pep giving him a chance

Damn mendilibar said he’s going for the win…so i expect a thought game…good thing about playing the young ones is their eagerness to impress…
On the bright side we have some solid forward and defenders starting..and mascherano will be looking to make some crunching tackles and hopefully we will control midfield

I wouldn't say it suits them

That's it..new superstition...not gonna read arron's previews from now on:p

On a serious note…we suck…the weather is terrible..the pitch is terrible and the ref refuses to let us take a free kick quickly…and if we do get thru on goal…obviously offside by the ref:|
if we havent scored 2 by half time..we will need to get xavi or iniesta or both

Abidal Pique Puyol

Great save Fernandez

Tello had the chance to tie it

wow that should have been three right there

Messi had too many passing choices I think!!

Endavant Villarreal!!

Anybody notice that almost everyone Messi tries to assist has had a poor first touch?

It was offside

When Sergi flicked the ball on Messi was offside

depends on who the ball came off

if a Barca head, he was offside; if Osasuna, clearly not

Endavant Villarreal!!

Alexis has found the back of the net four times today (so far)

Only one of them actually counted. That has to be some kind of record, right?

Another save Fernandez

Not the best header by Cesc

It's over

Despite a good effort in the second half we lose 3-2

To summarize

We get a bunch of goals disallowed (some correctly) and the goalkeeper has the game of his life. Oh, and the man (woman?) above hates us and throws some nice weather at us. Did we really expect anything else?

Nope

Unless you’re Real Madrid of course.

Summed up:

-Horrible defending
-Inability to keep the ball in the first half
-Absolutely abysmal game from Pedro
-Worst game Puyol has ever played
-Pique with probably the worst game he’s ever played, too
-Osasuna keeper with a great performance
-Osasuna get a goal offside
-Three Barcelona goals ruled out

by Luis Mazariegos on Feb 11, 2012 9:54 PM CET reply actions  

only bright spots:

-Pep’s adjustments
-Cuenca/Tello/Cesc contributions in limited time

Our record in the greater Basque area (Basque country + Navarre)

Two draws and a loss. And they say the Basques like the Catalans.

Barca needs a solid CB

what these 2 did today was a joke!

by hobo_barca on Feb 11, 2012 10:04 PM CET up reply actions  

to be fair Puyol has been good this season

This game was so far below his usual standad I wanted to cry. Pique has been completely out of sorts in my view though, I cant explain it.

by Luis Mazariegos on Feb 11, 2012 10:06 PM CET up reply actions  

Pique has been out of form

for a while now, I am not sure, too much Shakira?

by hobo_barca on Feb 11, 2012 10:08 PM CET up reply actions  

If we're looking for a bright side...

This means more playing time for the young ones…

by Atchins on Feb 11, 2012 10:05 PM CET reply actions  

I was 100% certain

that Pep will start Cuenca and Tello, well, had he done it, it would not end like this

by hobo_barca on Feb 11, 2012 10:10 PM CET up reply actions  

I Don't Know About That

I don’t think you throw out Villa yet. He’s still a world class striker and he gives us some stuff that these other guys don’t.

by Atchins on Feb 11, 2012 10:17 PM CET up reply actions  

I think Tello needs extra year or so

but when players are in form, they should play, and he definitely is

by hobo_barca on Feb 11, 2012 10:22 PM CET up reply actions  

if anyone gets the shove, it’ll be Pedro

by hobo_barca on Feb 11, 2012 10:25 PM CET up reply actions  

Apparently this also happened

Mascherano picked up a second yellow (red card) in the tunnel after the game and he will miss the game against Valencia.
