    Thanks for uploading the picture with better quality.

    We have a difficult game against Roma but they don't scare us and I think we can go through.

    No worries. I mean yeah on the paper they're the fav but I've seen you guys qualifying after facing tougher opponents than Roma so anything can happen.

    Fun fact, after Molde(11) Braga is the team with the most goals received that managed to qualify from the group stage with 10 and I think Slavia also got 10 as well so having a week defence against a team like As Roma that scored more goals than Juventus in Seria A can be tough.

    Crazy how Dinamo Zagreb in a group with Feyenoord, CSKA Moscow and Wolsberger received only one goal and that was at the end of the 6th game

    Those goals are easy to explain.

    We went to Leicester (at the time was 1st in premier league) with our second team because we had a game 3 days later in benfica home ( which we won), we lost 4-0 no surprise at all.

    At home with our best team we draw 3-3, 7 goals right there.

    Then we have the shittiest CB i ever seen but somehow this dude keeps playing every game for the last 3 years. When I say people hate him I really mean it, people can't even watch his face in the screen. I'm pretty sure he has some clause in his contact that he has to play every game, there's no other explanation.

    Neah, I think Bielsa or Nagelsmann would be perfect for Barca.

    Nah. Bielsa prioritizes his system over any players. That means that he'd force Messi to come back as a LB.
    Bielsa will never coach big teams because of this reason. He's tailored for smaller teams with no superstars in them.

    Great coach, but not made for big things.

    And trust me, I know. I'm from Argentina. Bielsa was the biggest failure of our history. We were knocked out of the 2002 WC in the Group Stages. Unprecedented.
