Everything is the worst. Barcelona lost to Leganés and now everything is the worst. They face Athletic Bilbao on Saturday and everything is the worst. And then they travel to Wembley without Umtiti and everything is the worst.

PREDICTION

I lost a lot of confidence in this team after Wednesday, so I don’t even know what to predict: I’ll be safe and go with a 0-0 draw because that’s a win for Valverde.
