Ronald Koeman's men put up an impressive peformance to ensure the security of the three points, as well as inject a boost in the team's morale ahead of the Copa clash against the sam opponent. Barcelona have now won seven consecutive matches for the first time since the 2012/13 season. Ronald Koeman's choice of line-up raised many questions about the tactics and formation to be implemented, as it had 5 defenders, 2 attackers, none of which was a natural number "9". The decision to go with 3 CBs and 2 fullbacks was to allow the team to dominate possession as explained by Alfred, Koeman's assistant. Sevilla took total control of the game right from the whistle, dominating possession, registering long spells of possession, exerting pressure on the defense and dictating the tempo of the match at will. The team however worked their way back into the following strings of passes despite constant longitudinal pressure from Sevilla's midfielders; Fernan...

FC Barcelona continue their league campaign as they face Sevilla on matchday 25, and will look to take advantage of the fixtures' complexity to initiate an upward push on the league table. Second placed Real Madrid face fifth placed Real Sociedad, whilst Atletico Madrid face sixth placed Villarreal in matchday 25 round of fixtures. Next week's round of fixtures will host the Madrid derby, which presents an opportunity for either or both Madrid sides to drop valuable points, which would prove valuable to Barcelona's title race. However, whatever results may abound, one thing is certain; that the team cannot afford to lose points at this stage of the campaign, having already dropped 2 valuable points in the late draw against Cadiz. Barcelona travel to Seville to face a Sevilla side who have won 5 of their last 6 matches, with their only loss being the 3-2 defeat suffered against Dortmund in the Champions League. Sevilla have played 15 games this year, recording on...

Its the Summer of 2017 and PSG Announces that they are going to pay Neymar's Release Clause. The player too informs the President and his teammates and best friends Lionel Messi (and Luis Suarez) that his final decision is to leave Barรงa.... Immediately, the Barca board held a meeting to discuss a player to replace Neymar. Two players are identified as prime targets; Liverpool's Phillipe Coutinho and Osmanne Dembele from Dortmund Flash foward, the players brought in to Cover Neymar's absence failed to live up to their expected standards. Osmanne Dembele was ever on the treatment table. After being played in and out of his favorite position Coutinho too failed to rekindle his Liverpool spark. Hence, despite spending over €300 Million on players, the gap Neymar left was still Uncovered and it started getting bigger and bigger. Bartomeu AGAIN had to start looking for outside for a solution and this time only one man seemed to fit the bill; Atletico Madrid's ANTOINE GRIEZMA...

BARCELONA AND LA MASIA: A CASE OF A DERAILED TRAIN.

Barcelona proved to be one of the most dominant forces in world football in the past decade,conquering teams domestically and on the European sphere. Barcelona did not just win matches and trophies subsequently,but the team won them in a certain pattern and way which proved to colour football. An important factor in the team's conquest proved to be the talents which were being produced in their "factory",the famed La Masia academy. La Masia was a vital cog in the gear that turned Barcelona's wheels of success over the years. The talents produced at La Masia proved to be world beater and unmatchable talents. La Masis instilled a culture,lifestyle and pattern needed to succeed into the players who passed through them. Amidst sporting and economic crises,La Masia proved to be a reliable panacea against impending peril. In a sporting sense, La Masia provided Barcelona with world class talent at little to no cost,in retrospect,the likes of; Puyol,Valdes,Don Iniesta,Busi,Xa...

He made 1 clearance, 1 interception, 4 tackles, 102 touches, 77 accurate passes, earning 85.6% pass accuracy. He lost possession 14 times in the match, but managed to win 7 out of 11 contested ground duels as well as winning 4 out of 5 aeriel duels. In reality, Todibo has shown massive improvement in his game-play; involvement, composure and physicality.
