Barcelona sent Champions League warning after defeat to PSG

The attack is a machine but defence remains a problem.

Barcelona sent Champions League warning after defeat to PSG

Barcelona’s defense has come under fire following recent defeats to both Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League and Real Madrid in La Liga. Former player Bernd Schuster expressed his desire to see the team crowned European champions, but acknowledged their need to improve defensively. Schuster told Bild, "I also see Barça as capable of winning the Champions League this season.

That’s their big goal, and I would be delighted for the entire club and Flick, because they’ve built something truly special over the past few years." He added, "My dream final would be a clash between Barça and Bayern Munich, whom I also consider among the top favorites, along with Paris Saint-Germain." However, Schuster noted that Barcelona still needs to work on their defense as they often concede two or more goals due to their offensive style of play.

Despite this, the team still wins most of its matches, with Lamine Yamal and his teammates often scoring four or five goals. Barcelona will face Aston Villa at Camp Nou in their next Champions League match.
