    Yeah I agree. Certainly need a tall Centre back atleast

    They also lack Penetration, I dont think Pedro is good enough anymore, and I think they now need another Focal point upfront, playing just infront of Messi

    Easy mate, already done it :icon_mrgreen::50:

    It's good to see Barca being taught, comprehensively and humiliatingly, that simply passing the ball horizontally for 2 hours is not the be all and end all of football, nor is the best way.

    Get the ball forward, preferably as quick as you can, shoot, and score. That's it. Possession is * irrelevant.
    I hope those * who copy and pasted possession stats after Celtic won 2-1 are doing the same tonight, because Barca once again dominated possession but just got totally mauled, so explain that you tiki-taka sycophantic retards.

    Could be an interesting summer for Barca, interesting to see who they sign.
    DEFINATLY need a defender!
    Sell Alexis and bring in a direct, skillful attacker.

    Wish they would sign Hummels from Dortmund, but having agreed a deal to sell Gotze to Bayern, they might not want to sell two of their star players in the one window.

    I had suggested Mertesacker a few times before. In some areas, skill on the ball matters little. For a centre forward, get Llorente or Džeko. Without a serious option that benefits from wing play, Barca are easy to stop.

    The footballing talent on display from Bayern is scary, they are not the team you want to be drawn against in a competition.

    * part went too far , of course you can give him criticism over getting it wrong tonight , was not so long ago you was raving about him being wonderful when the side was taking teams apart for fun.

    I would consider getting rid of
    Sanchez
    Alves
    Pedro

    Villa and Valdes are almost certainly going to go as well.

    Llorente would have been a good shout but pretty sure he's agreed to sign for Juventus though

    Aye they have everything, pace, skill, workrate, height, solid keeper.

    They dont have any weakness'.

    The ideal final now must be them V Madrid. Madrid are like a poor mans Bayerns but have Ronaldo which Bayern dont.

    Wow.

    Wow to the result. Bayern are so multi-talented. They have been on the up for years, and they could be the next dominant force in Europe. You just hope a team of Barcelona's quality can bounce back next year.

    Wow to the reaction of some people on this forum.

    Yeah, Bayern have a solid team, but they dont seem to have that one, magic player! Probably the only thing they dont have.

    I like Robben. He was a brilliant player before he got badly injured. Probably the best player I've ever seen live. Not counting Henrik Larsson of course.

    He goes down too easily but so do a lot of the best players. He worked his socks off tonight as well which I can't remember him doing too often before.

    Lovely goal as well.
