The decision to play Garcia was a joke.
Pep rightly dropped him for the Real games after his decision not to sign a contract and then puts him back in the next game, the biggest game of the season.
I am sorry but that's appalling management.

Our greatest strength is our attacking power, yet incredibly he leaves out some of our best players in a game of this importance.Pep has lost his nerve. Such a strange decision to play defensive players in a game where the opponent predictably defended deep. If these defensive players were Vinny Kompany behind Nigel de Jong I'd understand in part, but Fernandinho is no central defender whilst Gundogan and Rodri have no pace. Rodri was enough in front of a 4. We had Laporte. There's Walker's pace in defence. There really was no need to make these changes. All it did was limit our offensive potential.
I don't get how such a celebrated coach can have come to this decision. if his judgement is gone then that's him as a coach gone. It happens> Wenger and Mourinho.
He tonight is anything to go by, he is the last person Barca need.I'm guessing it was meant to be a 'stay here/I have faith in you for the big games' moment based upon the Barca shitshow yesterday that ended in the most spectacular of backfires. Utterly bizarre decision.
He'll still go back there ffs.
His performance is irrelevant, it's the decision to bring back a player who is on the verge of leaving, especially when you have players on the bench who have shed blood for this club.Not good for dressing room morale.Sadly he was the best defender tonight. The tackle he made on the breakaway from behind was world class.. sadly the ball just went to Cornet and he curled it in for the first goal.
Pep lost it when we needed a calm coach under pressure.Our greatest strength is our attacking power, yet incredibly he leaves out some of our best players in a game of this importance.
I am speechless , one of the worst team selection I have ever had to witness, what the **** was he thinking?
If Sterling takes his chance, there's no conversation to be had.
You telling me that team wasn't good enough? Are you saying we didn't create enough chances?
It was on the players tonight with a special mention for the officials.
Completley lost it, and made me angry.Pep lost it when we needed a calm coach under pressure.
