Barcelona have been really poor so far.
The one we ain't playing 2017/18
Paulinho is completely mediocre. Nothing in his game stands out at all.
Chelsea have been resolute.
This Barca team remind me of Arsenal 05-06. Mix of youth and some average players with ageing world class players upfront.
Willian and Hazard are the kinds of player we've been lacking in like a decade. Pace, power, endurance with great dribbling.
Why in fuck's name are you not paying attention, Wenger?
We just sold a player with pace, power and endurance with great dribbling this summer to great applause from most of the fanbase. Indeed, Wenger got stick over the years for playing this player as much as he did.
Been saying for a while Willian is hands down Chelsea's best player. And Costa was second, Hazard just got all the plaudits.

You've been chatting absolute shit for a while, then.

Willian has been terrible this season. He has games like this in his locker but goes missing for weeks, months even, on end. His end product is unforgivably poor for a player of his talent as well.

Gerrard on BT Sport (I know, I know) has been saying the same thing.
Willian scores. 3rd time lucky, been coming
Shitty game. Only one team trying all this while.

His stats are poor (having said that he scores important goals) but he is their biggest threat with set pieces and delivery of his balls. Efficient.
I think this Barca team will smash Chelsea up at the Camp Nou, but they are really not a particularly good side.
Think they might struggle agaisnt City over two legs and I'm not as high on City as most are. Maybe even Spurs might be a close run thing.
Man, what a great time to compete for the Champions League! And we play Östersunds ffs...

Efficient is exactly what he isn't.
And his set pieces have been very poor compared to a couple of seasons back too, when he seemed to be a threat with every one he took.

We wouldn't get past the 2nd round and you know it.

We will get knocked out by whoever we play in the last 16 definitely.
