Barca's right back has been knackered for 20 minutes and Alves is on the bench

As you say that Alves comes but not for Araujo, it's for Alba

Remember when some of us on here didn’t want Auba in jan ?

I was very much in that camp, although I think the challenges are very much different and whereas I'm not sure he would have put the same effort in here

Though I thought it was a bad signing for Barca as well and that's proven not to be the case, he's been class

Are all you watching on streams, or do you subscribe to La Liga TV / Premier Sports?

 

Nights like this you wish it was back on Sky Sports, or even BT.

I have Premier Sports/La Liga TV

Oh Auba, should have been his hat-trick and 5, poor miss that 

Was a fantastic finish by Aubameyang

It counts, get in, 4

Onside that no?

Looks tight but probably his shoulder is off

Class from Auba and a brilliant finish

Torres does score, 3, get in

Unbelievable that he's only 19.

 

What's happened to Fati, btw?

Just constantly getting injured

Which is a shame because he is some talent, his composure is something that just stood out

Sorry, I should have been clearer. I meant Madrid.
 

Barca look miles better than the shite Koeman was serving up. 

Ah right, then aye I also agree

They benefitted from Koeman being Koeman and also Atleti having a dodgy season

Chelsea shouldn't fear them and they aren't likely to lose the plot under the slightest bit of pressure like PSG did

I half watched them a couple of times since getting La Liga TV. Just never seem impressive by their high standards. 

I do agree with this but this is very much a transitioning Barca

Xavi has done brilliantly to get them picking up results and nailed on for top 4 when it was looking a bit ropey under Koeman

Get in, Araujo makes it 2 and another assist for Dembele 

Never a pen actually, replay shows he was going down already 

Looked like a pen on Vinicius to me

Not seen much of Real Madrid this season. But they have looked shite when I have. Even against PSG, they looked awful over two legs bar a 20 minute spell. It also helped that PSG kept getting assists for Madrid and gifting them goals. 
 

Barca have played them off the park here so far. Mad that they are running away with La Liga. 

Hasn't helped that Barca have only started looking competent under Xavi, since Xavi came in it's been a lot closer 

Good play from Dembele and a good header from Aubameyang

Plus Lingard on a few will be after big wages and you can bet it will be at least a 4 year deal, zero value in doing that

We could easily get better, younger and on lower wages

Yeah, in January Lingard would have been a good signing but I'd be disappointed if we went for him in the summer

He's 30 this year and for the wages he'd be looking for on a free I think we can easily get better

Shame Sheff Wed couldn't win, would have put the Mackems 7th but they do have a game in hand

Drawing. 

I wonder if it was another dodgy penalty decision

January was about making us solid, be hard to beat and that has proven to be the case. 

Assuming we stay up then the summer has to be about sorting that front three out.

Both against Chelsea and Everton we played well in parts but were let down by a lack of cutting edge.

Get a top striker and winger in and that suddenly changes. 

Just imagine Nunez and Diaby in our side, would be quite transformative. 

In 2 weeks on the Saturday we have these fixtures

Liverpool v Watford

Burnley v Man City

Then before our game we have

West Ham v Everton

Hopefully all those go our way and it means the Spurs game is a bit of a free hit with less pressure 

Then on Wednesday you have Burnley v Everton, someone will drop points and then we have Wolves at home on Friday night, if we don't get anything at Spurs then it would be nice to beat Wolves to all but seal safety.

Leeds have won it

Thought was gonna be in, great block by Saiss
