Well city goal to concede, far too high a line and the lb being far too lightweight

Genuinely one of the only neutral games this season that’s had me off me of my seat!

This is top class football! It’s why we watch the game!

Some of the passes from Barcelona are incredible

I went to the Barca game the night before our game v Sheff U and whilst it was against inferior opposition (Osasuna), they played such a controlling, technical passing game you could not admire it.

There are times when we try to be ‘controlling’ and it gets a bit boring. With Barca, seemingly every pass had a purpose and it was genuinely beautiful to watch!

I’ll be honest, most neutral games I watch, I rarely take too much interest in the games.

I’m all in on Cov and England and that is it for most games of football. So this game has been a fantastic display of elite football.

Barca are the better team, imo but Inzaghi is a vastly underrated manager. So tactically versatile with a somewhat limited Inter team compared to the competition!

Pass and move, go for goal. That’s what I want to see in a nutshell

Lovely play all round. Great by Thuram to hold it up and beat his man, and love that pause to put the defender off balance before he hit it

Inzaghi’s technical area could be all of Europe and he’d leave it

I’d like to see Inzaghi in the Prem. He is, in my view, the most underrated manager in European football.

The football Inter play is so versatile, you have to admire it. He’s lead a quiet revolution in the way he utilises 5-3-2 and utilises his CMs in build up play. Objectively, they have a weaker team than many of their European rivals and they’ve got to a few UCL finals lately.

He’s truly an elite European manager and we should fear the day he manages the Italian national team.

My worry is that he’ll fizzle out like Gavi did somewhat.

I’ve watched him play twice and each time he was a joy to watch. Well, not so much the first time because it was v England but he is undoubtedly the premier talent in European football right now!

I really rate Gavi! He and Pedri are genuinely class midfielders in possession!

Yamal, I’d love to see his numbers benchmarked v Messi. It must be close!

I think commentators mentioned tonight, when Messi was Yamals age, he’d played 5 games for Barcelona

That’s crazy. Yamal is a generational talent but I do worry he’ll burn out because it’s two long season for him!

In the 2 games I seen him, he was genuinely one of the best players on the pitch in both games.

Gavi is still only 20 and has only this season come back from an ACL injury. He's a great, great player and yeah can be generational.

Not too much in it when you look at total goal involvements, but the ridiculous thing is Messi was 3 years older
