France football need to get 2 Ballon d’or ready for next year. I don’t know what Raphinha and Lamine are up to this season

16 goals and 12 assists. Lamine Yamal, please don't stop whatever madness you're on right now.

FARINAS VS ASTON VILLA

Gordon has to start over Adeyemi tonight. I’m sure he knows a thing or two about playing against English teams. There's no reason to overthink this one. Put the man in the starting XI.

Respect to Kounde, man. When Flick called him out, he took it like a professional, accepted the criticism and even admitted that the manager was right. No unnecessary drama, no playing victim, no looking for excuses. Just accountability.

Raphinha has scored more goals than 16 Premier League clubs this season, that's an outrageous individual scoring record. The bigger point is that we're talking about a winger, not a traditional number nine. Raphinha contributes goals, assists, pressing, chance creation and defensive work. He's not just finishing chances; he's heavily involved in creating them too.

Barcelona as a club has only one defender who can actually defend. And this one defender can sometimes be prone to error. Low IQ Barca fans need to start blaming their sporting director rather than the man that has given us a lot.

Gordon: “Neither Real Madrid nor PSG are superior to us.” So much honor and respect. And honestly, he’s absolutely right. We know what we’re capable of, and we’re not going to put any team above ourselves. That’s the mentality every player in this squad should have.

We’ve been 3 defensive signings away from the treble for the past 3 years. We keep repeating the same thing

My honest take on Gavi and Bernal is that Barca should be looking to keep Gavi, even if it means moving Bernal on in the summer. Gavi offers something different to this midfield. His intensity, aggression, work rate and ability to win duels are qualities we shouldn't underestimate.
