F--- off, Barça are top of LaLiga? Weren't they seven points behind two weeks ago?

Sam and Toni lead the podcast this week as Barcelona beat Rayo Vallecano 1-0 to return to the top of LaLiga... and there are still 14 games to go. Hansi Flick's side took advantage of Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid slip ups on a weekend which saw English swearing become the big talking point in Spain.

Rik, in Budapest, also chimes in with his ratings, but first Sam and Toni discuss Jude Bellingham's language, Barça's narrow win (of champions!?), Jules Kounde's tardiness and whether Marc Casadó has done anything wrong.

We're back on Thursday on Patreon ranking Barça's best left-backs in the next part of the series which sees us build the best Barça XI of our lifetimes.

Until then, SP!

After back-to-back five star showings, there is nothing like a trip to Getafe to bring you back down to earth. But there are reasons not to group Barcelona's draw at the Coliseum in with their pre-Christmas slump.

Sam and Rik, with Toni away in Lisbon, dissect more drop points in LaLiga from Barça, Lewandowski's form, Kounde's penalty that wasn't, the Bordalás-ation of Carles Aleña, the Copa del Rey draw and much more.

Sam, Rik and Toni discuss another Barcelona defeat, this time at home to Atlético Madrid on Saturday. Barça enjoyed the better chances but Alexander Sørloth's 96th minute earned Atlético a 12th straight win in all competitions and moved them ahead of Hansi Flick's side at the top of LaLiga.

Did Barça deserve more? Brilliant Pedri. Rating the first half of the season. And more.

¡Stay Positive!

Sam, Rik and Toni reflect on more Barcelona dropped points. Hansi Flick's side twice led at Real Betis on Saturday but conceded a penalty and a 94th minute equaliser as they failed to win for the fourth time in five LaLiga games. With Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid closing in, what's the diagnosis?

On Flick substituting off his best players, losing his cool, seeing red... and Lamine Yamal once again emerging as Barça's shining light.

We will be back on Patreon on Thursday after Barça's Champions League game away at Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday.

Stay positive!
