Valverde has a charisma of a shoe.
Uh oh
Have to say, if i'm in charge of a midtable club at one of the top 4 leagues and i'm looking for a coach, i'm hiring Slavia's manager tonight
His players are, frankly, a bunch of farmers. And he has them playing inter, dortmund and barcelona even. He's not just outcoached Conte, Favre and Valverde, he's gone back in time, banged their moms then came back and waited for them with a "I'm your daddy!" sign

He’s not a destroyer which Barca’s front three tend to be, a player who can do it all on his own.Not to mention how Griezmann is struggling to adapt as well
early days for him yet though.
Yeah. It doesn’t help having Ernesto in charge.
That’s embarrassing
Griezmann is too similar to Messi and they don't really have the optimal players to make them co-exist
Also Valverde
Also Valverde
He's been played out of position all season, it is insane that he's always forced to play on the left wing instead of central.Not to mention how Griezmann is struggling to adapt as well
early days for him yet though.
Even when Suarez doesn't play Griezmann is still stuck out wide. Insane.
Leipzig on course for the round of 16, as they should be.
Some of Messis's touches, passes and dribbles have been exquisite. Him and Vidal aside though, absolutely everyone else was shocking.
As much as I dislike Suarez and think he's past it, Griezmann was even worse when played up top today.
Valverde will be gone very soon.

They heavily missed Luis Suarez. He gives their attack a lot of different options especially when Messi is playing and they don't have anyone to replace that.
Agree, although de jong gets a pass as he is young and actually was pretty damn good and stepped up near the end to try and force the issue.
Dembele may have had some hamstring issues (yet again) but if he can't sort out his touch, intelligence and passes in a game like this also, he's done.
Ansu Fati showed smarter touches and almost set up two goals in the time he was on.

Slavia were absolutely outstanding in the two games against Barca. Very good performances. Much credit to them and the manager!
Maybe it's time Valverde to go. Abysmal play.
For all of Suarez's faults, he atleast is a presence in the box and a good finisher in there. Griezmann, even if he got only half hour centrally, was absolutely woeful. If he plays there at the weekend, he's going to have to massively improve or he's back to the bench when Suarez returns.
Nervous about this one. I feel Ajax will really go for it tonight.
Ffs, electricity gone as I was preparing to watch the games.
Genk could be eliminated tonight if results go against them. I think a Napoli/Liverpool win tonight knocks them out.
But you're posting here...what kind or sorcery is this?!
Watching Barcelona shift further and further away from 'the methodology, has been interesting to watch. At one point you had 5 players in a single line
Chelsea 
Ajax take an early lead. Promes. Could be a Tammy OG.
I know
Any chance they’ll fire Valverde after this 0-0?
I can only prayAfter Liverpool he should've been gone, absolutely staggering he was able to continue. The players get tired so easily and have zero work rate it makes you wonder if they even do conditioning in training.
I have a terrible feeling he sees the year out and they get Koeman after the Euros.
Would love to get the Ajax coach instead though.
The methodology was prime Messi, Xavi and Iniesta and now Messi is not the same Messi (Still better than most) and there are no Xavi or Iniesta to bail them out. They also have been spending big amounts but are flattering to deceive. Would be interesting to see what happens once Messi leaves.
Now Chelsea awarded a penalty. Foul on Pulisic.
All square.
Nice quiet start at Chelsea.
That tackle by Biraghi. 
One of the fastest yellow cards I've ever seen.

Lyon take the lead. Anderson.
Why do goalkeepers fall for that? Surely just wait ...
Inter take lead in Dortmund. Martinez.
Laturo scores again. Inter lead
Looks like Inter and Barca will make it from this group.

If they don't, he'll just put it in a corner. Hazard does the same.
What a goal by Martinez.
Dortmund's back 2 ...
