Do you think Barcelona can win UCL playing high line?

[Ja sa bong]

The Barcelona manager Flick loves playing high line offside trap tactics. It worked for him in every club but it's not doing well for them in the UEFA Champions League because they are conceding too many goals.

How will this affect their push to win the UEFA Champions League?

The offside trap rule have changed and I think that is the challenge that he is having right now with the club. Most clubs have understood how to play against such high line and once Barcelona is not pressing better. It gives the other teams a lot of chances to score when they face the Catalonian club.

It's not just the high line tactics that's costing Barcelona but how weak their defense have been for a while. I would rate Barcelona's defense in the top 10 in La Liga because even small teams walk over them. To answer your question, no they can't win the UEFA Champions League with this weak defense.

USA League which is Major League Soccer being able to attract big players like Carlos Vera, Zalatan Ibrahimovic, Messi and so many other big players is what boosted the popularity of the sports.

Tottenham was exposed last season when their former manager Ange Postecoglou was playing the same tactics. It was the reason why they finished 17th on the EPL table which led to him being sacked even after winning the Europa League.

Every football tactics set up have a flaw in the style of play which can be exploited if the opponent knows how to put pressure on it. This is why clubs keeps scoring goals at both ends of the pitch. There's nothing like a perfect flawless gameplan.

The case of Spurs last season was that they scored less last season. The tactics would always work better when a team is more focused on scoring more than the rival which Spurs didn't do well last season.

Who says Barcelona cannot win the UCL? They've got the team and the right management to win that League. Barcelona have been quite impressive in recent time. That high line tactic they adopted is a dangerous game. If they press well and pass quickly, it can actually work, but a counter-attack from the opponent will penetrate their defence. To be fair, Barca has all the talented defenders, but playing high line against top UCL teams is not an easy thing at all. But If the midfield dominate and they control possession, maybe they can make it. Above all, if they got the tactics right,they might pull it through.

You actually have a good point but the problem is that when a team concedes goals very easily, they are not going anywhere. This was what cost Barcelona last season in the UEFA Champions League semi final against Inter Milan. If they don't fix that, it's going to be the same result again this season as well.

Today, we are going to find out if Barcelona have what it takes to win the UEFA Champions League when they play Chelsea by 21:00 GMT.

My prediction is 3-1 win for Chelsea in the game.

Teams that play highline always have very quick defenders. And Barcelona don't have those kinds of defenders. That's why they keep getting exposed when they play that highline against teams with fast attackers.

This is very correct. I had predicted 3-1 win in favor of Chelsea and they won 4-1. They completely exposed the weakness in this Barcelona team.

Yamal was not in top form. That boy is the one that I expect to see doing great things when he is fit and ready to play matches. I hope Barcelona get to meet Chelsea later in the competition as the outcome won't be funny for the London boys.
