You’re not being compared to Betis in terms of quality. The argument given by others follows that Liverpool’s high press is dangerous to Barca. Barca have faced a more aggressive press in Betis, therefore it’s not the press itself Barca will struggle with most. It’s the quality of the front three on the ball, that is the big challenge to them.Its really cute that we're being compared with Betis and Eibar on Redcafe.
Because they press too, innit.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
VVD totally ignoring Cilessen.
Fecking hate Barca. But like City, the lesser of two evils.
Being an ex Red, Pique knows he can't allow Pool to win...
Why are they booing CL anthem?
I know it’s nothing new, but why are they whistling the anthem?
Go one of the teams!
Barcelona can't spell colour apparently
The lineup from us is extremely safe. Though TAA missing out is warranted, he's been overrun in recent games, needs some rest. But the midfield, oh my... I hope it's not trying to play Keita as LW again, because he's too slow for LW.
Suarez dive for penalty please
That Barcelona bench is ridiculous
Don't be daft with the innit stuff. Pep Guardiola brought this Betis thing up as well.Its really cute that we're being compared with Betis and Eibar on Redcafe.
Because they press too, innit.
Amazing Vidal actually starts important games for them still.
find it weird they would start the older fouling machine Vidal over Arthur
I hate Liverpool and I hate Barcelona. What a f***ing choice. Well between two evils then GO Messi Go.
Seeing the CL trophy on a bus around Merseyside is my worst nightmare, Please God don’t let me down...

A hat trick of them please. And a sneaky bite on VVD that he gets away with, and a booking for dissent because even after all that he's still a victim.
Really wishing and hoping the whole "VVD hasn't been dribbled past..." gets royally done by Lionel!
barcelona por la vida!
barcelona por la vida!
rat face is due a CL goal surely
Flashback to Young gifting the ball to Messi while we were on top at Camp Nou.
FFS Rakitic, just hit it.
Messi taking on the entire Liverpool team what a player.
what a player.Who's that number 10 chap in Barca? Seems decent.
Good start from Barca. Rakitic should've shot there.
We didnt look this soft against barca, this early
Both teams will score.
Looked a pen to me
Vidal looks like sonic the hedgehog
Thought he was gonna give it.
A big shout, with no appeal. Dive.
How is it possible to be so good on the football? I've been watching Messi for about 15 years now and he never stops amazing me. The little cnut is an artist.
The choice is pretty straightforward to be fair.
Pen?
Conservative line-up by Valverde with Vidal and Roberto. Dembélé will be the Top Sub (Coutinho dropped), Arthur second sub only if Barça are winning (Rakitic dropped).
That kit on Allison. Hideous.
McManaman's surprised. 
In your dreams certainly .Barca look clueless and Pool will win this without much fuss.
That’s a pen, for me
Why no VAR
Should have booked Mane for diving.
