How things change so quickly!
After drawing 2 games in a row and Iniesta injured (something that Cesc should be used to BTW) the whole town is in a panic!
Just a week ago it was sure that Barca will defend their title, now everything is in doubt.
I think they are worrying about nothing! For me it's just a blip and they will pick up and start beating teams 5-0 again, unfortunately
However what the fans did cry out for this summer was to bolster their defence and not buy another midfielder! Why is it that a manager, no matter how good they are can't sometimes see the obvious?
I haven't seen the games but does anyone know why they drew the last two games?
But it is an encouragement for us that even though the two Mancs clubs are powering on, it's a long season and anything can happen.
Barca Fans in a Panic!

I remember when the drew against Osasuna last season and then lost to us 3 days later there was a lot of panic then, too. They seem to get worked up about anything over in Catalonia!!!

They are short of one defender and a holding midfielder to become perfect 11, aren't they?

Busquets does a brilliant holding job for them and they also have Mascherano who's currently playing CB because of injuries to Pique and Puyol., They could do with another CB though.

One more draw and the white hankies will be waved and boos ringing around the stadium.
Barca fans are spoilt brats.

They had like 70%+ possession in both games but were guilty of not being clinical enough and some careless defensive mistakes.

Barça have got two fine young Spanish youth internationals in Fontás and Bartra. They need match time in the first team and signing a CB would only have diminished their chances. Pep's not made any wrong decisions there imo. One of them (not sure which one right now, I get them mixed up) can also play pretty efficiently as a DM.
