If there were comparisons drawn between Xavi and Arthur, looking at the latter's style of play, that's just going to increase much fold after what he did for the second goal against Sevilla. That assist for Rakitic's goal made you feel like Xavi is still playing in the midfield, and that's a nice feeling to have.

FC Barcelona produced one hell of a come back for the second time in as much as rounds in this year's Copa del Rey cup. Barcelona kept it's hunt for 5th consecutive Copa del Rey title on track when they overturned a 2-0 first-leg deficit with a marvelous 6-1 victory at home. Coutinho who was much criticized scored two crucial goals and Saurez, Rakitic, Roberto and Messi completed the scoreline for Barcelona. Despite the big scoreline, it wasn't all smooth sailing and Barca definitely need to thank Cilissen for pulling out a brilliant save off Banega penalty at a crucial juncture in the match.

These 3 Simple Changes could Make Dembele be one of the Best!
This Season definitely has been the coming out season of Ousmane Dembele. Now he needs to take it to the next level.
Ousmane Dembele has been quite good, so far this season. Some of his ardent fans would argue that he has been quite spectacular, I will not jump to that so early. Considering where he was last season, this season has been really a passing out ceremony.
It is safe to say that we know why Barcelona went out and splashed so much cash for him. Last season ended with a feeling that that high amount was literally wasted. But this year, no one will even question the price tag. We know clearly what he adds to the team, and how he can impact the style of play. But it's a baby step and if he really needs to hit those high expectations, he needs to do the following things right.

Lionel Messi created two goals and scored one goal and helped Barca overturn the 2-1 deficit from the first leg.
Barcelona produced a brilliant display of attacking football to overturn the first leg deficit with a 3-0 victory against Levante at the Camp Nou. This display clearly showed that the first leg result was mostly due to the absence of key players, mainly Lionel Messi.
Lionel Messi was once again the key difference maker, creating two goals and scoring one to ensure an easy Barcelona victory. Dembele scored two goals in the first half, both from Lionel Messi assist in the first half to make the match more or less secure. Messi's goal in the second half simply sealed the victory and dismissed any doubt, if those existed.

3 Reasons Why Barcelona's Victory over Eibar was Absolutely Brilliant!
Barcelona was simply at their very best against Eibar and many of us wouldn't have realized that.
This was not Barcelona at their flamboyant best, nor at their dominative best; but they were absolutely at the efficient best. That simply has to be the honest analysis of Barcelona's 3-0 victory over Eibar at the Camp Nou last night.
Barcelona has played better matches in terms of attack and goal scoring, many this season. But if you ask me to rank this one among them, I would definitely rate this victory as one of the best so far this season. For many, it may appear a far-fetched claim, but when you put the context correctly, you will understand how good we were in this match.

Saurez and Messi Scripts a Solid Barcelona Victory over Eibar
Luis Saurez scored twice and assisted Messi's 400th Goal in la Liga in Barca's 3-0 victory over Eibar.
FC Barcelona - 3 | Eibar - 0
Barcelona football maintained their five point lead on top of the league with a solid and efficient 3-0 victory over Eibar at the Camp Nou. Luis Saurez scored twice and Messi once to keep Barca ahead of the hunting pack, which incidentally has been reduced to Atletico Madrid after Sevilla lost to Athletic Bilbao at San Mames early in the day.
So at exactly the halfway stage, Barcelona has a five-point lead over second placed Atletico and ten points lead over third and fourth-placed Sevilla and Real Madrid respectively. In a season, where a number of teams threatened to upset the usual status-quo, the league has finally turned into a two-horse race. But still, when you consider that only 12 points separate the third-placed team and the just above relegation team, we are sure for a sensational second half of the league.

FC Barcelona Starts Year 2019 with a Competitive Victory over Getafe
Lionel Messi and Luis Saurez gave Barca a great start to 2019 in terms of results, even though the performance never matched up to their high standards.
Barca - 2 | Getafe - 1
Scrappy has to be the most apt word which could describe last night's 2-1 victory over Getafe at the Coliseum in Madrid. Despite that, if I decided to describe this as 'Competitive' (as I have described in the Title), there is a solid reason to it. Even such a scrappy victory was elevated due to what happened before the game to all our major competitors in the league.
Barcelona came into the game clearly knowing that a victory over here will send us five points clear of the table. The two major sides, which were capable of mounting a challenge to Barca's title defense - Sevilla and Atletico, drew when they met each other prior to our match. Real Madrid who is already having a horrendous season compounded the pressure on them by losing 2-0 at home to Real Sociedad. Currently, they lie ten points adrift of leaders Barcelona and lies in the fifth position, one point away from Alaves.
