Yeah, can't say they've peaked yet either - I suspect their best is yet to come

Roma used a rather suicidal high line but some of the skill on display from Barca is lovely.

I expected a really superlative performance tonight coming of El Clasico and because it was Roma who frustrated them in Italy...and happy that it came to fruition, great entertainment...Better still, shocked to have seen Samper get a cameo - did not see that coming

Looked good when he came on. very composed. Suppose it's easier to do with that team around you and 3-0 up but all the same..

Have a feeling Olympiakos will hold on for a 1 goal loss

 

[WarringtonBlue]

Would love Cambiasso to upset the Gooners.

Bayern and Barca just look unstoppable. The gaps between the top clubs in Europe is even more pronounced

Very composed and looking to also make an impact with some of those passes...happy for him but in disbelief that Lucho played him

just back after the game. Bizarre performance from Roma at times, from the moment early on they let Messi collect the ball in space at the edge of the box and turn and shoot and almost score. The reaction around me was, what the hell were they doing as nobody gives up space to him that easy.

second goal incredible. Busquets excellent again.

Still cant stand Suarez, or really warm to Neymar, but in this form that front three would win a two-way tie against Bayern right now. Whether its all going the same come the second half of the season...lets see.

pure exhibition stuff for an hour tonight, worth freezing my ass off for.

*Feels sorry for Samper now*

 

[tsubaki]

I hope Barcelona are so boss for the next two seasons that even the idea of bringing Deulofeu back is greeted with derision over there.

 

[Caolam]

that's a big shout lad

They will loose 3 of their next four, we win all four and we are a point ahead of them. Simple.

Why is bringing Samper on for Busquets whilst 3-0 up a shock? He's the natural heir to Busquets and I'd say the highest rated academy player at Barca ahead of even Munir & Sandro. I'm shocked he's not made more appearances.

Good points. Not such a shock when you consider Mascherano was injured too.

I'm seeing Arsenal being 2-0 up in Greece and shipping a last minute goal

If that happens, I'm willing to bet that Wenger will just play the kids in the Europa so they can get knocked out quickly and concentrate on the league

No club the size of Arsenal should be having to play a team of kids just to concentrate on the league.
