Craig Burley

I mean, he doesn't have to completely change his philosophy, but he has to get the balance correct.

And why are you fiving... He was your captain as well, I think, at Rojo.

Why are you fiving him when he's coming off after making two stupid decisions like that?

I mean, he's right on the back of the referee for his first booking.

He's got his nose on the back of the referee's head.

The referee turns round, he's there.

You can't encroach like that.

And then once you've done that, you know, it's just a stupid challenge.

So...

Hansi Flick's going to have to figure it out.

The fact that he might get away with it is because others at the top end in the Liga may also fall off.

Real Madrid, Villarreal are going well up to now.

Atletico Madrid, could you trust them?

I'm not sure you can.

So for that reason, both of those, the big two, might be OK.

But for no other reason than that, I think particularly in the Champions League...

This has got no longevity for Barcelona.

You may get away with it in Spain against the bottom half, which they have done, but as this tournament evolves and the teams become more elite and better quality, you're just not going to get away with that.

You think even with the decision to play Neto, you think pace, the back four, the squeezing of the line.

But in some sense, that may have saved Barcelona from an even bigger mauling because it's not really that player that you're looking to get in.
