Edu Aguirre said last night on El Chiringuito what many think about Barça. It's an irregular and unreliable team. It might make a comeback with the referee's help in Lisbon, but it wins one out of eight possible matches in LaLiga.
Pedrerol's pundit claims that this Barça "can't win the Champions League because it's overrated and there's a lot of hype around it."
He explained it like this on El Chiringuito:
"This Barça Can't Win the Champions League"
Regarding Flick's team's comeback in Lisbon, Edu Aguirre was clear: "Was it a magical night for Barça? There's a lot of hype, a lot of hype is being sold.
Barça isn't a reliable team, and I repeat it. It's overrated. Playing like this, it can't win the Champions.
For 70 minutes, it played a very bad match. With a very bad defense and attacking poorly to badly.
We focus on the epic, three sparks, and Raphinha, whom many culers wanted to sell a year ago to get 60 million. Now they're jumping on the bandwagon.
"Barça Isn't a Reliable Team"
However, a smokescreen is being sold because Barça isn't a reliable team. There's also the fact that the referee clearly puts Barça in the match. Because Lamine Yamal gets a hand on his shoulder, his knees give out, and a penalty is called...
Moreover, the last play is a clear penalty for Benfica due to a push."
Edu Aguirre argues that Laporta and Flick use the referee card to complain as a strategy.
"Just like Real Madrid TV complains, I think it's perfect for Laporta and Flick to complain.
It's a strategy by Laporta and Flick to divert attention. And to avoid talking about the match they've won in the last eight of the League, and that in a month and a half they've lost 16 points. It's a clear strategy.
Now, the Barcelona fan can believe it or reflect and self-criticize. The Barcelona fan isn't self-criticizing.
"They Think It's the New Cruyff's Barça"
They keep celebrating the five goals they scored against Madrid, which I think is fantastic, and they think they're going to win the Champions. They think this is the new Cruyff's Barça.
And it's not like that. Because this Barça is a team that isn't stable, it's a Barça that, to me, is overrated.
It plays very well because the kids play very well. And it has a lot of merit when the opposing team gives it many options, like Real Madrid twice. But it's an overrated Barça.
Laporta and Flick know it, and when things go wrong, they cling to a mild play to say it's a disgrace. Flick didn't talk about referees, and suddenly he talks a lot. The key is the lack of self-criticism there is."
