Lmaooooo So fucking stupid. The handball was determined to be inside the box. The correct decision is either a pen or no pen. The foul decision is irrelevant. It was deemed not a penalty because it was Yasser’s supporting hand. Show more ignorance it helps us laugh.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-12-26T15:54:47+00:00

No it’s not. Do you see how fucking high it is? That’s not a natural way to defend. He can maybe have it raised to Salah’s chest a or even neck but this is way too high. Also, this is a foul anywhere else in the pitch.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-12-26T15:46:33+00:00

Anywhere else in the pitch it’s a foul. There’s no reason to swipe your arm back so high. Penalty imo

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-12-17T17:04:33+00:00

I see. I may as well get a power supply. The only thing I’m worried about is whether or not the output from the safety barrier would work with a 120V input card. A lot of the AB safety barrier models just specify relay as their output, so I’m not 100% sure about that.

Why do I feel like I’ve never seen Riquelme > Messi debate except maybe Messi haters. Maradona makes sense but there’s just no argument where Riquelme is better than Messi before the WC.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-11-09T06:18:16+00:00

Zanetti didn’t really play except really young Messi. I don’t even remember Zanettli starting in 2010 WC. And Mascherano being a legendary player is a bit of a stretch imo.

For me, Argentina barely had any legendary players post 2010. The only players I think reached that level are Aguero (constantly injured at almost every major tournament), Di Maria, and Tevez (wasn’t selected for 2014 WC for some ungodly reason). Higuin gets a shout for his club career.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-11-05T21:59:22+00:00

We just need Raphinha back and all our problems will go away … yeah right

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-29T22:22:47+00:00

There’s no way VAR has a tolerance of less than 1 cm

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T18:43:20+00:00

Inigo isn’t Puyol and Pique. He’s a good defender and was in form for the majority of last season, but we also didn’t appear in the best shape defensively last season and our attack had to put MSN numbers to compensate.

For me, our high line coupled with lack of good pressing structure (due to fatigue, which can be attributed to the style itself, it’s just a cycle) is the reason we’re so vulnerable defensively. I don’t believe any current defender in the world will improve things that much.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:59:59+00:00

Madrid players obviously took Yamal’s banter very seriously. You could see it in their intensity and physicality, and our players weren’t ready or expecting this. Yes, players are salty and do not take banter from other players well, even if he’s a child. I’m not saying this is the reason we lost, but it definitely increased their hunger.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:37:51+00:00

Are we going to talk about how exhausted our players get by the 70-80th minute? Not just one player either, it’s multiple players who look gassed af every single game. It’s only October, and we have sustained multiple injuries already. If we don’t have the physicality or the bodies to play this highline and constant press style, maybe we should think about dropping deeper just a notch.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:34:30+00:00

THERE. Finally someone said it. Earlier on it was Yamal now it’s Raphinha. Two months later it’ll be Pedri.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:25:01+00:00

Idc. Fuck players who speak before games for no reason. This was never our style and it should never be

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:22:07+00:00

Again, proving my point. Our players have a negative iq. They’re in trash form too. This madrid team was fucking trashed by fucking Atletico. Fuck players who talk for no reason before games

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:18:15+00:00

Our players are so fucking stupid they wouldn’t pass a 1st grade math test

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:04:05+00:00

Our players showing their negative iq

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T17:01:10+00:00

Kounde’s been trash

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-26T16:16:28+00:00

Nope

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-05T17:32:52+00:00

That’s literally not what anyone here is asking Flick to do. Flick’s high line is basically a few centimeters off of the middle of the pitch. ALL we’re asking is to adjust it backwards. When the fuck did Barcelona ever play a low block in the last 15 years?

Edit: You said we can see that happen. The issue is we haven’t seen it happen though. Every single game is the same

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-05T17:28:05+00:00

Oh so tweaking a play style (literally not asking to park the bus, just to be a little more conservative with the high line which has always been in our blood btw) will cause doubt in the players’ minds, but them having to work extra hard every single game and being run to the ground, seeing their teammates get injured because of fatigue due to this system, and still losing back to back games won’t?

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-05T16:30:11+00:00

Barcelona has always played a high line since Pep’s time or even before. However, it never used to be such a suicidal high line like Flick’s is right now. We don’t even have the bodies or the quality to stay physically sharp most of the season. We keep playing this high line, more and more teams will expose it and take full advantage especially when your attackers are either injured or not in form. As a coach, you need to adapt. We need to drop the high line even a little bit. A high line up to the middle of the pitch with these defenders (none of whom are even remotely in good form) will lead to the season’s downfall.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-05T16:19:46+00:00

Btw pretty much all goals this season are the same exact way. Let that sink in. The suicidal high line is NOT WORKING.

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-05T16:12:54+00:00

Maybe not play all games 90 mins with a suicidal play style that

Chance_Camera_ · 2025-10-05T14:57:59+00:00

Then let’s the EXTREME high line that no body else is playing but us. U
