Got bailed out by a soft pen but I think we were the better team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma 1,766 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Also, 6 academy players on the pitch in that match. It's going to be a long season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) Bellingham has scored 3 in 2 so far, occupying the attacking midfield role, behind the striker. He's going to be a problem for Barcelona's title chances this season that lad, it has to be said.

What is it with refs turning a blind eye to off-the-ball challenges on Lewandowski? About 5 last week, and Luis Hernandez just shoulder-barged him off the ball but referees/VAR doesn't care to check it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was blatant as fuck that. Even the Argentine commentator has been laughing about it saying it's a blatant pen. What's the point of VAR even existing? Other than that though, the attack has been flat. Looks better since Fati came on though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan 18,386 Posted August 20, 2023 Author Administrator Share Posted August 20, 2023 Yes Barca! Finally! Pedri slides in after being slotted in by Gundogan, perfectly weighted ball and Pedri gets just about enough on it to score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Yes, about time. Pedri. Gundogan with a lovely weighted pass something that has been lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Ferrán to make it 2-0. It's been a very difficult game but the substitutions have made an impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma 1,766 Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Sevilla, yikes. Lost 4-3 to Alaves. Who'd have guessed Valencia 6 points and Sevilla 0 points from two matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
