22 shots conceded vs Plzen – Culer expresses disappointment at Barca's back-four

Plzen managed to keep 8 of those shots on target while converting two of them. 

In fact, that's the most number of shots the Blaugrana have allowed against any team since the start of the 2022/23 season. 

Barca fan Barsalev is highly disappointed with the quartet. 

"We really signed Koundé and Christensen only to play a backline of Alba-Alonso-Pique-Bellerin," Barsalev tweets. 

How do you rate Barca's back-four against Plzen?

no it's justified at certain point,Bayern won every single game they had qualified 2 matches before,they still won all 6

We are not Bayern and we play in a more demanding league,perhaps you can’t compare that Bayern team to xavis rebuilding team

Giving rest was the right call,we need them fresh for the next game and don’t forget the Europa is so full of underdogs

Every measures has to be evaluated and I’m with Xavi on this one,every important player needs to stay fit for Barcà and their national teams

Exactly my Point @Kentro Lee... 
We play a Demanding league, we are in a Position where we can't afford any further Slip..

We already have injuries in important areas, it would be foolishness to add to the List especially with important players...

We all need to see that Xavi was right playing Fringe players.

@Rig M.. Good for Bayern... but I don't think all their Major Defenders are on the Injury List Bro... He needed to reserve his best players and give minutes to others, and that was the Perfect Match to do so... Plus we won too Didn't we?

It's a Match that the fate is already decided, both teams weren't exactly playing for much..

Xavi has no choice but to play Fringe players so they could get minutes.

I'm sure we do not expect him to start Kounde and Christensen as the Tweep suggest just for them to have a Knock or sustain injury like Kessie did, for a match he doesn't exactly need...

We conceded too much, Yes... but that Backline wasn't the starting Backline... If it had been, that much wouldn't have been conceded.

If Xavi had played his best XI, and a star player sustained injury, All Hell would have Let loose... 
The incessant complains of Barca fans is starting to get increasingly irritating..

hahahahaha honestly there really perform like a pregnant woman

Idu Junior Idu

haha pregnant women were just chilling...

We need to focus on young players and forget about those frustrated players that always perform like a pregnant women

Francis Tamba Brima

Same team scored bayern 2 goals lets be calm haba...besides  there was nothing we were fighting for

Okay, for God's sake what do you expect when you have Vintage material in your back yard.

Moreover staging, Jordi Alba who at least tried and Alonso then Pique who's thinking about his stalled hotel investment and you bring this wasted young boy Bellerin.

Actually we were very lucky to concede only two goal and if we were playing an elite team I don't know what you would be saying on that backline.

All in all me am happy both the Torre's were on the score sheet and we secured a win.

Time to focus on the league
