We have one top striker and he didn't play so if we had 3 and they were all on the bench how would that have helped? How would a top striker stopped the bravo cock up?

I missed the game, but just based on the facts, I have to agree. We apparently played well and Barcelona played badly, and yet they still spanked us 4-0. We were well in the game when the sending off happened according to most people, and yet if it wasn't for the sending off, we would have been 2-0 down against this team that we were "matching."Apart from their finishing tonight Barca were poor. I actually think we are making good progress under Pep overall and can see a lot of improvements but in all honesty tonight didn't look like any kind of message that we have arrived in Europe.

now i have not read a single post on here after the game, so I don't know what the mood is. but tonight is the first time we have ever looked like we belong with the top three (Barcelona, Real and Bayern). I'm not sure of exact numbers but i make it 13 times wev'e played the big 3 (4xreal, 4xBayern 5x Barca) in 6 years. and withe the exception of the Bayern game away where we won (dead rubber to them), in all honesty weve never had a sniff!
tonight was different! they went 1-0 up through a mistake. and before the sending off we were matching them (without our best player). even at 3-0 down we were having a go!
we will do them at the Etihad!
But the best part of my night has been realising that them rag ****s are now like us 15 years ago, praying their rivals get dicked in Europe!
M.C.F.C SALFORD! (from a salford blue that only knows 4 lads thats have been to old trafford more than him)!
You expect us to beat Barcelona with Caballero at the helm! ffs

Unfortunately we've just shown yet again, that we're miles away from winning this competition.
We just don't have enough players in all positions who are technically good enough to keep hold of the ball under pressure and most importantly who are mentally strong enough in the big games.
I'm afraid this team is pretty much the same as last season's, flat track bullies against weaker teams, but mentally weak against the better teams, both domestically and in Europe.

looking that way to be honest. Since PSG in April we haven't beaten a decent side...Unfortunately we've just shown yet again, that we're miles away from winning this competition.

We all hold our breath when Agureo goes down hurt and pray he will stay fit
He's 100% fit and we don't play him v Barcelona
Sorry I've not won 20odd cups or whatever it is but I'm fucking baffled by that one

Joke game, where everything went wrong, again.
But, lets have it right...............At half time we should have been in front then a momentary lapse finished the game.
However, lets not get carried away. This is a group game and we will qualify in second place so no harm done.
And, its only a second into Pep's reign so lets keep calm and trust the man. We dont need a total overhall or throwing out half the team, just a bit more belief and some fucking luck for a change!
