Barca just own the Metropolitano now. That's 5 straight LaLiga away wins against Atletico Madrid. Only two other teams in the whole history of the league have ever done that. The list: Athletic Club - 5 in a row back in 1955 Real Madrid - 6 in a row in 2013 Barcelona - 5 in a row in 2026 We are writing history in their own backyard.

Same script, three years in a row at the Metropolitano. Atletico take the lead, think they've got us, then Barca flip it completely. *2024/25:* 2-0 down, we win 4-2. *2025/26:* 1-0 down, we win 2-1. *2026/27:* 1-0 down, we win 2-1. At this point, it's not a comeback anymore. It's a habit.

Hansi Flick’s side have scored 30 goals in their first eight away matches this season — their best return in 125 years!

We need Frenkie in this game in the second half. And what a goal from Fermin, I'm not surprised. He just showed up once more.

And some Barcelona fans keep saying we should line up with both Balde and Cancelo in the same team. Funny as hell.

Atletico Madrid scored 1-0! what's happening 😯

How did Alvarez not score from that position.... Wonderful timing from Joan Garcia 👏

Lamine Yamal's masterclass tonight 🔥 Who's says no?

We are here! Get ready, Atleti! 🔥

In attack, as usual, Gordon starts ahead of Adeyemi. In midfield, Bernal starting ahead of Frenkie is not something I was expecting in this game. I don't know why Flick starts him ahead of Frenkie in a crucial game against Atletico Madrid at the Metropolitano. I just hope this won't haunt us back in this game. And in defence, Fariñas starting is something special and what I was expecting to look forward to. How he performs tonight will tell how ready he is for the first team.

❗ LINEUP Bernal starts, Fariñas IN. thoughts? 💬

And this is an example of when people fail to understand that the problem at Manchester United is not the coach but rather the players in the team. A lot of the players in this current United team are below average, and even with a world-class coach, it still doesn't improve any aspect of their game. Carrick, on the other hand, is young and lacks experience, but I still feel he can carry this team with time and with the right profiles. In my honest opinion, a total rebuild of this squad will help, and it should start from January so it won't get worse towards the end of the season. Carrick already knows the system, he just needs to be given the right tools to use, just like Arsenal did with Arteta. It might take time, but it's going to be worth it.
