1 nil Barca

Raphinha

great assist for Lamal

[Vesper 29,320]

1 1

Otamendi header

[Vesper 29,320]

Wojciech Szczesny should have done a bit better

he is rinsed IMHO

[Vesper 29,320]

Raphinha already has 44 total goals produced this season

26 goals

18 assists

[Vesper 29,320]

ter Stegen out for the season is the one massive thing that keeps me from putting Barca up as one of 3 sides who are favourites to win the CL

along with Pool and Real Madrid

[Vesper 29,320]

2 1

Lamal

[Vesper 29,320]

3 1

Raphinha on a hat trick

Looking at their bracket they are favorites to reach final and in one game everything is possible. After all they are ahead of Madrid in LaLiga and destroyed them twice this season. 

[Vesper 29,320]

top 15 wingers on the planet atm IMHO

5 of the top 6 (and soon the top five of five in a year or 2) are on Real and Barca

in my order

Mohamed Salah (Ballon d'Or favourite atm)
Lamine Yamal 
Vinicius Junior 
Kylian Mbappé  
Raphinha
Rodrygo  
Florian Wirtz    
Jamal Musiala   
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia
Ousmane Dembélé   
Bukayo Saka
Bradley Barcola
Rafael Leão
Xavi Simons
Michael Olise

Wojciech Szczesny really worries me still

he is a howler machine
 

[Vesper 29,320]

IF Barca win it, you have to go back, IMHO, to Pool's Jerzy Dudek (the Milan Istanbul collapse) in 2005 to find a worse winning keeper (Mendy for us was the FIFA and UEFA GKer of the year on the planet when we won it)

and Dudek that year was better than Szczesny is now
