What's the best time to get there to see the players getting off the coach?

Never been to see the players at the new ground. Is it at the main entrance?

 

[MCFC1993]

Alba, Pique, Iniesta and Turan all out injured for them.

Thats leaves them; Ter Stegen, Sergi Roberto, Mascherano, Umtiti, Digne, Busquets, Rakitic, Rafinha/Gomes, Messi, Suarez, Neymar

Same approach as last time with slightly different personnel and we have a chance. Their back 4 can be got at but we got to stop the supply to the front 3, easier said than done but until the red card that's exactly what we were doing.

3 at the back is the only way to get those 6 midfielders and Kun onto the pitch, Fernandinho could go right back but I think he'll want his energy in midfield. If we want to crowd out their midfield then it looks fine but we'll have to adapt the system when defending against their front 3.

Just keep 11 men on the pitch for 90 minutes and build from there.

Very hard. Barca enjoys a special protection by the refs, and an integral part of their play is to "search and get" free-kicks when they loose the ball. Besides that players like Suarez and Neymar always roll 5 times around on the floor to make things looks worse than they are.
