Barcelona seem to be on the lookout for a new keeper. So are many across Europe. But who actually fits the bill? I filtered through Europe’s top leagues to build a shortlist of potential fits. Here's my latest: 👇 https://t.co/UPmIo9S8hF

You say history, I say fucking shambles.

Mexico’s 16-year-old Gilberto Mora is set to play in three World Cups in the space of nine months 🇲🇽🤯🌟

🚨FIFA and AFC have officially denied the Indonesian FA’s (PSSI) proposal to replace Kuwaiti referee Ahmad Al-Ali with a neutral referee for the 2026 FIFA World Cup Asian Qualifiers Round 4 match between Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 and Indonesia 🇮🇩 on October 8, 2025. #AsianQualifiers

I honestly feel that the move to play domestic league fixtures in other countries should be blocked at every turn. The response of “revenue generation” will always be made but once you start playing home fixtures in other places, the game’s well and truly gone. I hate it.

🏟️ In addition to playing the WC qualifying tournament at home, 🇶🇦 Qatar and 🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia were given another advantage. They are the only ones to have a 6-day gap in between their two matches. All other teams 🇴🇲🇮🇶🇮🇩🇦🇪 will need to play their matches in the space of 3 days.

We were lucky with injuries for most of last season, until the end, and that’s when it fell apart. This season is already much worse, and our lack of depth is getting majorly exposed. This side can probably function without one of Lamine or Raphinha, but DEFINITELY not both.

Barca are running dry on squad resources. Flick-ball doesn’t provide rest with the ball or rest without the ball & I think that impacts the ability to keep players fit. That’s the edge Alonso has on them to keep guys fit despite Barca having a higher ceiling when everyone is fit.

This is why I think football has always been such a huge part of my life. For 9 months of the year, you have something to give your weekends structure, something to care about that’s both bigger than you and detached from the everyday shite you’re forced to contend with.

Uhm- it is Jharkhand right? I think you missed an 'R' admin!

🚨🎙️| Hansi Flick: “Our idea is to press our opponents, it’s crucial and part of the Barça mentality. We can do it better in certain situations. When it’s structured, we do it well, but if there’s no pressing, the line is too high. We have to improve and train for this every day,

Yes, Barça are very vulnerable when opponents can stretch the backline on the counter, a few runners and a good cross is often enough. I think compared to PSG, the issue is the lack of quality fullbacks and recovery pace in defense. Flick at Bayern had Alaba and Davies.

More touches for Lamine equals more football for FCB, issue is especially in europe (BVB away, PSG 2nd half last night) more and more teams are blocking passing lanes via M2M press and forcing Lamine to scraps

Por cierto, el Bayern sometió al FCB hace un año durante 20 minutos de forma más bestia que la del PSG ayer. La diferencia fue que Raphinha marcó 3 goles en 45 minutos.

Also it’s possible for both competitors to have a good game in the same match. Ie one player dominate one passage of the game before the other takes control. Saw the same thing with Pedri v Vitinha. For me a proper pocket job is 90 minutes of total domination. #barcapsg

Stepped back a bit from football the past few years, and seeing the meltdowns after losses like last night’s just reminds me how reactionary football fans are. Crazy thing is, I used to be the same. Flick is still great. We’re still great. Everything will be alright.

Lamine has no longer has no business on the wings and it’s not even because he can’t operate there it’s because it’s very easy to close the passing angles to him, a good m2m high press automatically means he is receiving 80% of passes in his own half (psg today, bayern last year)

Gonçalo Ramos explained on CBS that he purposefully stayed offside on the 2nd goal and claimed that he copied what Harry Kane did when he played vs Barca. ELITE #9 play from Ramos: - Stays offside so that he isn't marked by Barca backline. - Jogs and distances himself from being

Flick 🗣️ "When you see PSG, the whole team defends, and the whole team attacks, and we have to learn that. All of their team knows how to press and all of their team knows how to use the spaces." Flick seems to think his side have a way to go yet.

There are benefits to staying in an offside position as the centre forward against Barcelona.

As I said before the game, pressing was always going to be the key to deciding the winner. PSG pressed better and dealt with our press better, so they deserved the win. Flick’s idea of having the wingers press centrally was too risky against their fullbacks both of PSG’s goals
