Hard to believe how poor Barca are under Valverde.
Unbelievable!
Unbelievable!
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.
We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Injuries didn't help.
Umtiti is not match fit at all.
Griezman is just starting to settle down.
Busquets was piss poor in this game.
That defense needs a lot of work!

Games played in Saudi Arabia by teams that did not win a trophy last season.
What a shame.
The Barca coach should have made good on his initial statement not to go to such a dubious tournament.

TOPICS: SUPERCOPA DE ESPAÑA, BARCELONA, ATLÉTICO MADRID, ERNESTO VALVERDE
The Spanish coach had an interesting meeting with the press after the bus that took the team to the training ground got lost in the way.
Making the trip to Saudi Arabia, getting lost in the way to the training complex and having to add one more game to an already tight schedule seem to be enough reasons for Ernesto Valverde to question the Spanish Federation's decision to change the format of this competition.
Speaking in a press conference that was delayed after Barcelona's driver got lost in the way to the training ground, coach Valverde admitted that he liked the Spanish Super Cup back when it was played in Spain, and furthermore, he questioned the need to have more teams invited to the competition.
"I always thought about this tournament as the first of the season between the league and cup champions. I think it was fine back then. We'll have a say on the format once the tournament is over," Valverde said.
Then, the coach aimed a dig at the two teams that were added to complete the Final Four format established by the Spanish Football Federation.
"From a sports perspective, we all know there can only be one league champion and there will only be one cup champion each season. It's weird to have to play this tournament with two invited teams," Valverde added.
The former Athletic Club boss looked back at his previous Super Cup experiences in an effort to play down the need of fighting for this title at home.
"Let me give you a statistic. This is my fifth Super Cup trip. In the first three, I had to play for the title away from home. Then, when I won the league, we had to play for this tournament away from home. It's quite odd. We'll see what happens, because there could be one more game for us if we win tomorrow...or not," Valverde concluded.

I get your point though they were a bit unfortunate with the two disallowed goals ruled out by VAR - correct calls but those fine margins are the difference between being poor and being winnerstxj wrote:Hard to believe how poor Barca are under Valverde.

VAR didn't seem to view Messi's goal from the front.
From the back it looked like a handball but it looked "iffy" from the front.
It didn't help that he moved his hand.
