When Barca signed Dani Olmo, I was pissed thinking that it was an unnecessary signing. Man, I was so wrong. Despite the lack of squad depth, Olmo was a great choice and made his debut and played like he was always part of this team.
@@ElPabloDelDiablo There is another quality that sets Olmo apart which is the possible reason why they wanted him over the other options is his ability to turn a press through his controls, when combined with the passers at the base of the play he creates simulated transition situations, since with Olmo's ability to receive and turn almost instantly, he can face the attack with at least 3 runners against 3 or 4 defenders and even less if he beats a player with the turn like against Dortmund, Baena simply can't do that and most likely that's why they decided not to go with him.
Bro don't go missing like that😂 I'm addicted to your videos, I've been rewatching them over and over. Hope everything is great in your personal life, if that's the reason you went missing or maybe you needed a break or whatever that's cool But don't forget about us that long😂
Glad that you're doing good Just to let you know that your work is truly appreciated and highly beneficial for us people that love the intricacies of the game. Keep up the great work🙏🏽
I would add that one big thing that sets this team apart is joy. Both for the players as for the viewer, Barça have really become a joy to watch again, and that is what this game is ultimately about, isn't it?
Wishing you enough success to run this channel full time. Waiting 1 or 2 months for an upload feels like forever with the quality of this channel's content.
Bro finally you posted on new Barca. I was getting worried about you. I was always thinking about the post you made on new coach Hansi Flick and if his tactics are going to work. Now when everything is working i was thinking why the hell is Purist not posting about this. Thank god you are well and breathing bro. Lmao
I have been waiting for your analysis on Barca for years!. I hate the fact that you do not post videos on Barca tactics regularly. I absolutely love your videos, though. Thanks
Genuinely one of the best tactical analysis videos I've seen in a while, perfect clips and animation to go along with a digestible amount of content. Thank you!
Should barca stop using high line in second half of the games? Because i was re-watching couple of previous games and we mostly concede goals in second half. The intensity we have in first half massively drops in second half mostly after 60 minutes.
@ We all have lives outside of football and UA-cam (fortunately), so more than understandable It’s just your análisis really stands out as it’s so well-structured and organised (which is rare), and you usually cover great topics disclosing them from interesting angles. I have yet to find something similar (and I consume content in 3 languages). So, impressive job, thank you !!
@@fatih8053 probably his finishing, especially when he missed 3 clear chances against brest who could score hattrick, and also because he's still developing his composure and his calmness against pressure
@@darrenskilful6356that's a bit harsh, he rarely gets any playing time, so he's under a lot of pressure to prove himself. If Flick gives him starts in 5 consecutive games, he'll get his goal scoring confidence back
Pedri's passing range is good but not ridiculous....some times he doesn't see runs ... The last Dortmund game Lewandowski n raphinha made numerous good runs into the box ...but he didn't even attempt to play one ball in behind.. Rapha was frustrated all the time.... He has to do better but has the potential to do it...same with gavi.... I believe casado has better vision and execution than pedri n gavi... What pisses me off is that he tries to play the ball in behind in impossible situations.... So pedri has to find the balance...
Bro I KNEW there was one tactician who's thoughts I missed on the revolution of my favourite team. No wonder I understood only 40% of their game before this video. You're smart, yet clear in your explanations
Everything about Lamine is great but his shooting needs slight twitches. Messi needs to teach him. And I'm sure he will. And he's only 17, so he has a lot of time to improve.
In my opinion the problem is that we can't rest our CB so their performance have declined due to fatigue but with Araujo back i would expect us to be conceding less now.
Excellent analysis. You never miss! A few questions: 1) Do you think Barca's high-risk football is more effective in the CL? 2) Should Barca do anything different in the league, especially since they struggle against less difficult teams (e.g. Las Palmas and Betis)? Thank you!
The problem when Barca struggles in la liga in my opinion is Barca can’t control the games and play from the back, Spanish teams press high and also there’s a theory in Barca fan base that flick is trying to prioritize Champions League to be in the first 8 and have less games
There are people who make daily videos and there are people that make less often but worth about 5 videos in its depth and tactical nuance. You definitely fall into the latter.
The attacking machine that had 0.5 xG and 0 shots on target vs Sociedad LMAO less than half of Betis xG 3.15 vs 1.8, also against Celta 1.5 xG vs 2.7 with half Celta's shot on target lol Considering Xavi consistently on average had a higher xG rate and never less xG than the opposition the reality he's the real attacking machine with more high quality chances, regardless of the issues of last season that went beyond his tactics Flick is forever a fraud of a manager imo he's never impressed me even before he came to barca and that 1 Bayerne never never fooled me
@ There’s more in even games we managed to win we had worse stats, however I’m not gonna post everything am I 😂 I posted the extreme ones and worth noting, Xavi even at his worst moments was never this shambolic.
Very dificult. Not only beacuse of the goalkeper (for me doesn't even have level for the spain first divition), but also for the lack of deep squad. If one of the full backs or one of the attack get injured, the impact is massive.
As much as i would like them to, it's not realistic imo because they still don't have the squad depth needed. As you guys said one injury can change the whole dynamic. And we have seen that throughout this first half of the season. I'm just happy to see them play exciting and good football. I wouldn't be upset if they don't end up winning anything.

I see Müller's playing style written all over this video
The runs in behind
Receiving in pockets
The one twos
Counter movements
When Barca signed Dani Olmo, I was pissed thinking that it was an unnecessary signing. Man, I was so wrong. Despite the lack of squad depth, Olmo was a great choice and made his debut and played like he was always part of this team.
He was in La Masia. It makes it easier to adapt back
I still think Álex Baena would have been better. They're about the same, but Baena was a market opportunity.
@@ElPabloDelDiablo There is another quality that sets Olmo apart which is the possible reason why they wanted him over the other options is his ability to turn a press through his controls, when combined with the passers at the base of the play he creates simulated transition situations, since with Olmo's ability to receive and turn almost instantly, he can face the attack with at least 3 runners against 3 or 4 defenders and even less if he beats a player with the turn like against Dortmund, Baena simply can't do that and most likely that's why they decided not to go with him.
You and me both buddy. YOU AND ME BOTH....

It’s good to be back

No joke I never downloaded anything from an add until this video, nice one you got me

Huh.
wait what
He used to post quite a lot under Xavi. Im just happy he posts anything tbh 😂
another banger. thank you 🐐
Glad you enjoyed 🫡
Kounde is unsung. He's so consistent.

You didn't talk about the counterattack,right now, they are best in Europe along with madrid.
I missed your videos so much , welcome back as a Barca fan I appreciate your work
I truly appreciate the Ludovico einaudi playing in the background
Finally your video is here ♥️
Ohhh I have been starving for this Video.
welcome back :D
Thanks :)
Enjoyed the video! Could you do one on our defence?
Great to have you back
Your the goat bro
I was thinking about you these days ago! Thanks for the video!
Olmo’s synergy with Lamine and Pedri is something special
at least Lewa got a whole paragraph written just for him 😂
I have really missed your content.
Pls what apps or websites or software do you use to edit your videos🙏🙏
best VARsa analysis I've seen this year. subscribed. I appreciate the work you put into your videos, I hope it pays off.
I know there are a lot of channels like this but this guy is one of the OG's, no one comes close to him imo.
What do you think is needed to make the team a bit more solid defensively? Is the offside trap sustainable?
Are you a coach in daily life, your vision of the game is crazy. Dont waste ur potential bro
Genuinely one of the best tactical analysis videos I've seen in a while, perfect clips and animation to go along with a digestible amount of content. Thank you!
Do you think they’ll be a game where Hansi will change his current high line system to idk, say adapt to an opponent?
What do you think about araujo coming back?
It’s about fucking time
Bro can you explain the barca highline.(i sometimes think its too high)
Should barca stop using high line in second half of the games? Because i was re-watching couple of previous games and we mostly concede goals in second half. The intensity we have in first half massively drops in second half mostly after 60 minutes.
I know it's not easy to put this together, but please, do this more often man! It's great and explicit!
We must appreciate CASADO more often.
The wait was worth it.
Such a good video man. Thank you
Been waiting for this video for months, love the analysis 👏
Barcelona under Xavi couldn't break down low blocks, Barcelona under Hansi Flick can't play from the back😂😂😂
This video is really interesting, good analysis, clips, edit.. I'm subscribing!
Thanks for uploading this vid.i have been yarning to see you uploading a video for a very long time
Missed your videos so much !
It’s great to hear from you again❤️🩹

Waiting for your video for a long time bro. Keep it going. I love your content and analysis.
Finally you're back and better yet with another Barca video, instant watch
Where is dip in the form part please.
Best football analysis channel at it again 10/10
Spot on!
Wow this video has cleared all my doubts about tactics. Don't know how express what this video has made to me. Good job❤
And many of our fans was angry about barxa signihg olmo . Talking about fermin lopez. I hope they see now
What's wrong with Fermin Lopez?
The main issue people had with Olmo is that he's injury prone.
@@fatih8053 probably his finishing, especially when he missed 3 clear chances against brest who could score hattrick, and also because he's still developing his composure and his calmness against pressure
@@darrenskilful6356 he didn't have nearly enough playing time to develop anything.
@@fatih8053 i mean i cant argue with that, only a few time in the training session because uefa is moneyhungry and creates more games
@@darrenskilful6356that's a bit harsh, he rarely gets any playing time, so he's under a lot of pressure to prove himself. If Flick gives him starts in 5 consecutive games, he'll get his goal scoring confidence back
Great review. We missed you!

Welcome back dude. Missed u
Everything about Lamine is great but his shooting needs slight twitches. Messi needs to teach him. And I'm sure he will. And he's only 17, so he has a lot of time to improve.
great quality analysis video! keep it up man👍
Fun bro? That was October. Nowadays, we're surviving.
Don't reveal our secrets 😂😂😂
Beautiful video purist 💫
Do u know how long I've beeeeeen waiting from a video from you about this Barca team😭🤲🏼
Simon Cowell jump scare warning

Great video brother
I love your videos so much
That is such a sick video!! Love it
Welcome back purist
banger
Man where have you been lol. Glad you came back on yt 💪
This video is not about Barcelona, it is a masterpiece about football vision
🔥 as usual 🎉 .awesome man
Dude Ive been here since 50 subs cant believe you blew up so quickly.
Please make a video about barca's defensive issues and how can we slove them.
Great video as always and your background music is damn good man. ❤
In my opinion the problem is that we can't rest our CB so their performance have declined due to fatigue but with Araujo back i would expect us to be conceding less now.
I have been waiting for months for your video
Surely the 3rd most important thing in Barcelona's success isn't Simon Co... oh right.
Worried aboutt their squad depth, its worse than Real Madrid. And injury influencc of Dani Omo
finally a video from Purist...
You forgot to mention cassado who is very good with ball
7 minutes ago is crazy
Excellent analysis. You never miss!
A few questions: 1) Do you think Barca's high-risk football is more effective in the CL? 2) Should Barca do anything different in the league, especially since they struggle against less difficult teams (e.g. Las Palmas and Betis)?
Thank you!

Your videos are so good, please do it weekly if you can.
May man was starving with Xavi
It’s been quite some time now
this video made me smile
We need more of videos especially about Barcelona's defense errors nowadays 😢
Been waiiiting on this one
There are people who make daily videos and there are people that make less often but worth about 5 videos in its depth and tactical nuance. You definitely fall into the latter.

Flick is forever a fraud of a manager imo he's never impressed me even before he came to barca and that 1 Bayerne never never fooled me
Why don't you show the statistics of the other 18 games they have played
@ There’s more in even games we managed to win we had worse stats, however I’m not gonna post everything am I 😂 I posted the extreme ones and worth noting, Xavi even at his worst moments was never this shambolic.
So glad you remembered your password buddy. UA-cam is about to be fun again
We've missed you fella
Your videos are like poetry my friend
Can barca win the CL with a high-risk football?
They can if they’re lucky with injuries. Nobody is clearly ahead of the competition this year imo. And Bayern won it under Flick taking similar risks.
Madrid or Liverpool will win if they don't bottle
@@cristiandominguez2792madrid are 20th in the league phase they BEST make it to quarters
Very dificult. Not only beacuse of the goalkeper (for me doesn't even have level for the spain first divition), but also for the lack of deep squad. If one of the full backs or one of the attack get injured, the impact is massive.

I thought it was the end for The Purist, great I was wrong!
The King and the GOAT of Barca tactics💙❤
our defence is the problem
Manqoba Mnqithi ball😂😂😂
Är du svensk?
Wanna know why de Jong's struggling under Flick?
