Barcelona just feel so toothless without Lionel Messi. The whole atmosphere at the ground, the lack of invention from the players - they’ve really had a punch in the gut.
I’ve a feeling they’ll struggle to have success for a while in the wake of this episode.

They had the weekend off as well, whilst Bayern had to play away at Leipzig, and they still got thrashed.
That said they do have Dembele, Fati and Aguero to come into the side after their injuries.
We can’t be far from seeing Bellingham in an England shirt as a starter. Think after this WC he’s got to be the choice
It’s hard because Phillips and Rice have been very good but Bellingham looks like he can be a level above given the chance.
People think you're slandering Phillips or Rice by saying Bellingham has to start.
You're not, Bellingham is just really that good. Sometimes you just have to accept that if a player is that good, it doesn't matter the form of the other players.
Messi, Neymar and Mbappe start together for the first time.
And drawing so far, none of them scoring.
Been watching snippets, they aren't playing well, very much give the ball to the one of the front 3, stand and watch them in the hope they'll do something brilliant.

I would consider a 4-3-3 with Bellingham playing alongside Rice and Phillips instead of Mount in the hole. That would also potentially allow full backs to get further forward. I don’t think GS got it wrong in this sense during the euros but there is defo an opportunity now.
I know it's only Besiktas, but the football Ajax play is great to watch. Absolutely tearing them apart, they could upset a few teams this season like they did back in the 18/19 season.

Adama shot for Sheriff, but he did not shoot the deputy...
Sheriff don't have a single Moldovan player starting.
Shakhtar have 2 Ukrainians starting, along with EIGHT Brazilians.

Pochettino comes in, has seemingly been able to sign whoever he wants..........and they've got worse.
Pochettino has done far worse, he didn't even win the league.
37 goals scored in 8.5 games so far this season.
