Barcelona fans have taken to social media to call for one player to be dropped from the club following the Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain.
Several of the biggest clubs in Europe secured wins in their second Champions League group stage fixture on Tuesday night, with Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Chelsea all securing three points.
After Tuesday's exciting fixtures, all eyes turned to Wednesday night's matches, with many identifying Barcelona hosting 2024/25 Champions League winners PSG as the blockbuster tie of the evening.
After Barcelona took an early lead through former Manchester City star Ferran Torres, assisted by Marcus Rashford, it looked like the La Liga champions were going to cruise to a comfortable win.

But things couldn't have been more wrong, as PSG fired shortly before half-time before securing a winner in the final moments of the match, leading to Barcelona fans hitting out at one player online.
Following his impressive performances for national side Spain during their victory in the 2024 European Championships, former Bayer Leverkusen star Dani Olmo returned to his boyhood club, signing a six-year contract.
Since then the attacking midfielder has made 47 appearances for the Spanish giants, scoring 13 goals and assisting nine, but after his latest performance in the Champions League, fans are not happy.

Reacting to Olmo's performance against PSG, one Barcelona fan wrote on X: "Tansfer list Olmo right this instance. Enough is enough."
While another added: "Leave my beautiful club Dani Olmo."
With one pleading: "Come on Olmo, I can't keep defending you,"
And another frustrated fan claiming: "A player who has one good game every quarter is Olmo! See another sitter missed."

So far this season, Olmo has made nine appearances for Barcelona, picking up an assist during the La Liga match against Valencia before getting a goal and an assist during the a week later against Getafe.
However, this hasn't stopped Barcelona fans from turning on the 27-year-old on several occasions this season, claiming that he isn't worth the reported £51m Barcelona paid for him.
Given the fact that Olmo is one of the highest paid players at the club, taking home a weekly salary of around £150,847, it is clear the expectations of him are high.
