In case anyone had any doubts over what way the Catalan sports daily Sport was leaning, their ratings for last night’s Barcelona performance certainly put that to bed.

10 all round for everyone, including subs like Adriano, who appeared for only six minutes, which seems pretty generous we must say.

Not only that, but the valuations begin with the journalist, Javier Miguel, saying “thank you” to each and every player. Still, we’d probably give Messi at least a seven, he was pretty decent.
