I mean, they are still a top 3 team in Spain at worst and top 5 in the world. They Messi, Suarez, etc. they have problems, but they are far from trash.

Haven't thought about them since the window closed.

22 out of 24 on points, 24 goals for and 3 against. Strong start in CL as well. Obviously it's only October but they look good

Well, you admittedly don’t watch La Liga, so

Somewhat, but more surprised by Valencia

I haven't watched them a TON, but in the few matches I've seen have been the Messi Show more so than normal. Going in it was obvious he would have to carry them and holy shite is he ever.

I figured they would still be top 3 but they're killing it defensively. Fun to watch.

Real Madrid will pass them up.
They will battle for 2nd with Atletico Madrid.

With Dembele healthy and maybe adding Coutinho, they could compete with Real Madrid again.

Real is fighting from behind, and Zidane is going to use those games against bottom table teams to experiment/rest players, meaning we are going to get a few draws. As long as Barca keeps getting results, we are going to have to take both Clasicos to get back to the top.

They will be plenty rested in a few weeks after they get knocked out the Champions League also, so all they will have is league games.
