Barcelona choke in big games

One of the problems that has come back to haunt Barcelona time and again this season is their lack of form and reliability in the big games.

Although the campaign began in a remarkable manner with a couple of important victories against Sevilla in the Spanish Super Cup, the Catalans haven't raised the bar at all across the last few months.

Atletico Madrid, Athletic Club, Real Madrid, Villarreal, Manchester City and Athletic again in the cup...these are the matches where Barcelona have underperformed.

Not only that, there have also been some unexpected stumbling blocks against smaller rivals such as Alaves, Betis or Malaga.

Something is clearly wrong so Luis Enrique and his team need to put an immediate end to it.
