games are meant to be played, no team should be underestimated because over confidence can cost big time. Vamos Barça but with humility and respect for our opponents.

No more Roma incidence. ...Barcelona should take Lyon seriously because they beat City in their own home

Barca shouldnt underestimate them just like they did to Roma .They shouldnt lose focus as they even managed to beat Man city in the champions league.I hope that all our injured players recover fast

This game should be an easy one.But we need a defender for sure.This summer transfer has to be the key to the competition.As Pique may prove bad or Lenglet.Messi is always there but some should secure the defense.And we should have not rotation running till that date.Valvarde should find the best formation and players before the game.He may have know it but his changes every match don t prove it.Even though some changes are forced by injuries.
