They're getting plenty of respect. The three of them were all finalists for Fifa Balon D'or and top 4 of this award. The thing is, it's just bad timing for them. They're playing their best futbol alongside maybe the greatest player ever. Says more about Messi really, imo

High profile? we bought him for 3M euros...

How can it be tapping up if the player's agent went to the club first?

Did you watch that game on Monday? Great header and positioning on the first goal, great cheeky little heel flick to open up anderson for the second and the dude has an unbelievable work rate. Really good addition to an already strong team. Sure, he could still fail all over the place but the...

There has never and will never be a bigger blaugrana badass than hristo stoichov. you watch your tongue or he'll break your foot

At the most, I'd say... if he plays well this year maybe tops at 15 next summer if someone really want him. It's a profit of 5-7M, not all that substantial. Plus I have a feeling they're going to try and bring back Botia on the cheap if he has another good season.

If Ibi can have an attitude like Keita, I think there will be a spot for him. He's a utility player, one who can play anywhere in attack and two midfield positions and keeps quality depth. If he wants more minutes and thinks he should be more of a prominent player, then I can see him wanting a...

I don't know, I seem to remember a couple times when Coentrao nicked the ball off Don Pedro. All in all, I think they each got the better of the other at certain times, no clear "winner"

Sadly they are buying into the bullshit, Casillas' comments after the game and the argument with Xavi show that. the only word that keeps coming to my mind when i think of this madrid team is pathetic

Don't forget a lot of english fans, especially arsenal for all his comments about Cesc.

I'm not completely hip to it all but I think it has something to do with the financial fair play coming into affect next year. They are helping out the books with these 'sells' with options for a buyback instead of loaning them and paying their salaries.

Since when does our team choices depend on what madrid thinks? That's crazy logic my friend... why not bench Messi since he kicks their ass all the time and annoys them?

sure... all they have to do is pay the 90M buy out clause and he can go :P

wilshere is like jesus with the football

I think we are required to buy him back.. only way he doesn't come back in two years is if roma want to buy him... or barca sell him to someone else. At least that's how I understood the clause

LOL... I never once said thiago, keita, busi and affelay couldn't cover for xaviniesta. i said i'd feel more comfortable with cesc on the team and i'd like that signing but i'd feel fine about our chances if we were left with no cesc and the aforementioned players. And I know you are the person...
