3 simple steps to beat Barca by 2

1)Buy a golf club

2)Name the golf club 2

3)Start whipping their mother fucking asses with 2, start with busquets(spelled wrong)

[Ted Hughes]

Try to play our normal game, but be a little more cautious not to over commit players in front of the ball, at least til the last 20, then hit them with everything we have got, kitchen sink, pass & move, long ball alehouse, crosses, corners the fucking lot.

Get a midfield player, for example Garcia, to drop deep & take the ball from Hart, Vinny, Nastasic & pass the fucking thing & get Silva, Yaya dropping in there too. Have the guts to accept the ball under pressure in our half, pass it through their line of dwarves & then attack the useless excuses for central defenders. Don't let Kompany whack it aimlessly to their back 4 or midfield.

That's how we should have played the first leg; & imo we would have turned them over. Their defence is even worse than ours.

Now we are desperate, we will have a hell of a job not conceding goals whatever we do. It could have been so different.

In a strange way, I personally feel the pressure is now taken away from our shoulders.

On that basis, we just need to relax and go out to play our normal, flamboyant attacking game, impress everyone with the style and quality we exhibit and let the result take care of itself - which it will.

To quote the old expression "we've nothing to fear but fear itself".

Yes, a back 3 .
This will tempt Barca to not park it and come at us instead . 5 mids so we're not outnumbered, Ed/Beast to start
in attack - depending on form - alongside Kun - if this doesn't guarantee us goals , then Ok, it's just not our year.
As I said after Chelsea (Pl) at home -
Our attackers are good , so pick 2 of them
Our mids are good , so pick 5 of them , and unleash YaYa
Our only good CB is Vince ,so pick him
The pressure created by our attack/mid will starve Messi & co, relieving pressure on our defence.

This is an annoying post for many reasons, I am rendered speechless by it's stupidity. Only thing left is to shake my head and walk away.

Steady on, Slim.

Just don't shake your head too much, in case it falls off.

This is getting kinky

Play how we did with ten men but this time with eleven. For all the possession they had they didn't create much until we were down to ten men. Stuff respect and let's have a go.

[gmercer1]

if the players go out with the attitude that they can win....we WILL win. Put £10 on it so they have to!!

[Ted Hughes]

I would actually agree with the back 3 idea if we'd done it before but it would go to shit if we suddenly tried it.

We could play without a 2nd cb though, & use Clichy or Zabba there.

Barca don't have a striker & players such as Lescott & Nastasic (who will probably play) have no traditional forward to mark; they will be faced by midget midfield players running/passing at them rather than the kind of players/system they are used to. And as they have nobody to mark, one will just be stood there & then expected to spray the ball around under pressure, which neither is great at, then stop little tricky fuckers from running in behind.

Lescott wins his fair share of 1v1s but is not great on the turn & Nastasic usually gets skinned by any player who runs at him . Getting numbers behind the ball quickly when they attack mob handed, rather than relying on individuals, is the key.

We won't stop Barca scoring in 1v1 situations with Vinny plus Lescott/Nastasic anyway. An extra man dropping back in there is probably needed as a minder if either of those two play, to help out both defensively & on the ball.
