This will be the most impressive stadium in the entire championship, hands down!

I'd say it's still too early to tell, we don't even know who we'll potentially face on the road to the final and. Also, we are incredible now, but just for perspective, in what kind of state were we exactly one year ago and how did things turn out in the end? half a year is a long time in...

One of the biggest mysteries in today's football for me is, what is florentino perez true motivation? I know everyone joe schmoe on the internet thinks lolentino what an idiot. yeah...no. He's an engineer, self made billionair and probably the most competent and best connected buisnessman in...

Because he says Messi is the greatest player in history?

villareal. great football, great players, always a joy to watch even when they take a dive to segunda, and they always have the potential to upset either real or barca

hate is definitely too strong, but i feel some genuine antipathy for athletic bilbao. They're probably the only team from la liga where i'm rooting for the opponent in european competitions

i totally agree. Stokebarca is the only one here who thinks this is about catalunya, heaven knows why. Pique was antagonizing real and real's the most popular club in spain. The majority of the national team supporters likely have real as their first or second team at the club level, even...

I don't have to excuse anything. what you describe is freedom of speech and i support the concept, so i have no problems with pique beeing booed, especially when he's brought it entirely upon himself. When he antagonizes basically a third of the football supporters in spain, he's in for a rough...

You mean the one where Pique can publicly give his opinion on any political subject and where every Spanish Joe Schmoe is allowed to also publicly express what he thinks of said opinion?

random? RANDOM you say? That, norwegian pretty boy, is zlatko junuzovic! learn his name well, because we have already destroyed your scandinavian pals and once you qualify your sorry asses for the eurocopa, you'll be next! Peace out, yo! I'm sorry. That's the first and probably...

If you get that vibe than you should read the entire interview from the link that flavia has posted, or better yet, watch the whole thing on youtube if you can understand some spanish, because hearing VV talk for 45 minutes leaves a different impression than 4 translated sentences taken out...

Well whoever it was, maybe messi oughta listen to him next time, lest there'll be another second half schooling

It's not about using beautiful exotic football skills, it's about the deliberate slowing down and waggling your foot beforehand, which serves no purpose other than telling the defender "look at mah skillz, yo" It's definitely a fine line between artful play and showboating, but for me that...

There was a time when he seriously overdid the whole "complaining to the ref" thing, literally after every call that went against barca, including completely justified ones, you could bet your house the guy next to the referee would be #16. But iirc that was mostly during the mourinho days...

imo the 25 year time span make it all the more impressive. maldini, what a legend but the don ain't no slouch either. I rewatched the 2006 final highlights the other day in the larsson thread, and y'all know who made the defense splitting pass that lead to the equalizer? That guy -> :iniesta:

I agree from an emotional point of view (i would still go easy on the cat though), but football wise i would feel more relaxed with real. They are a superb team, but they are also familiar, our guys know half of their players better than their own wives. also, in the current situation we...

Everyone hates Arbeloa. It's one of these rare things that transcend any cultural boundries. Some call it THE essential human trait. my opinion of ronaldo changed exactly like it did with morten and footyfan. The thing is, ronaldo is harmless. funny celebrations and tantrums don't hurt anyone...

i'm not gonna lie though, i love watching that show. maybe it's a cultural thing, but it's so funny to see grown men shouting, fighting and crying over things like how christiano had the same haircut twice this week and if that means he is truly committed to el madridismo or not. and then...

Say leo_messi, I never quite understood, is punto pelota/chiringuito in their own understanding a rm show? I mean the bias is very obvious for the viewers, but on the other hand they also invite people like mascaro and pedrerol makes an effort to be neutral from time to time. so what is this...

Maybe that's how he's supposed to play now, by orders of THE enrique. But i totally understand you, it has been frustrating to watch "play it safe iniesta" this season. There hasn't been a single game where i didn't think to myself "where's the dribblings, the one twos, the throughballs? where's...
