not the best of anologies old chap, because terry is definitely not captain material.

he was so happy there, it's a bit adorable :lol: he'll always be a little drama queen, but ronaldo's far more likeable now, at least for me. He's matured since his manchester scumbag years.

I agree. But that seems to be the case with most players out there. football's a passionate game after all, no? ahhh, but the don, as a paragon of the fine arts, knows to value quality over quantity ;)

I wouldn't want pep to come back to us so soon, firstly because i don't think he can bring to barca what we need most in the current situation. and secondly, i like pep alot as a person and as a coach and i want him to continue on his way to be an all time coaching legend. The insane amount of...

spot on. I also think it's no coincidence that the last truly succesful coach (by their high standards) was :VdB: to pull of the whole "galacticos" gig, you need a coach who is ready to mould his strategy around the players he has, and not the other way round. that's also why mourinho failed...

Modric was immense today. Always the correct balls and tempo, the fulcrum of real's game. great set pieces as well

i don't know man...human determination is a powerful force dani, what a boss! I tell you, if we somehow manage to win the league because of today, then this was to banana to end all bananas!

those guys are numbskulls. He's our main striker, or whatever passes for a main striker at barca, so his first and foremost job is to score the goal that brings us victory. which he did, so job well done. And this doesn't even factor in that he had two nice free kicks and quite a few good runs...

I can't help it, but with recent events in mind, all i see here is xavi and iniesta thinking "what is all this madness?"

yep, well said birdy concerning mourinho, i think he would be capable of playing with different styles, and also bring new inventions to football that would be enjoyable to watch. he doesn't do that, because i believe deep down mourinho is an extremely troubled and insecure person, who's self...

He's the don. He's everything and then some :) But don't sell cesc. in fact, don't sell anyone! we have a transfer ban and a corrupt board, ffs. spoiler alert: that money won't go to unicef

ritual? "so what's your little ritual in games leo? lacing the left boot first?" "well, i like to throw up inbeween games. you know, it's just one of these little things." when athletes throw up because of exhaustion we talk about 50 km cross country skiing or the mountain stage at the tour de...

VdB is a great coach, but i don't think barca would suit him so well. He's the perfect coach for a national team, because he can work unmolested for months at his own pace and he's great at not losing his calm and making the correct decisions during important games. But liga business with one...

what's bielsa up to these days btw?

In all honesty, i don't see laporta being the answer, not if we like to have a fresh start with how the club should be run. I'd like to have a board who run the club with competence both on the economical and football side, where barca is seen first and foremost as a football club with high...

the dark side of football is that it's a place for extremists of every strip to vent their frustration of failing in real life. you can blame real for not handling the ultras sur effectively, but neither have we gotten rid of the boixos nois, despite laporta banning them, and hats off to him for...

Lord Bendtner has spoken!

yup it's the oldest one in the book, my uncle did the same teaching german in japan. just told the class as long as they're in this room, there's only german, end of story.

First of all, different opinions are cool, and i arguing about whose are better is pointless. I have to say though, your first sentence is a bit irritating to me, so i will give you mine: I am a fan of barca because i enjoy watching football being played on a very skillfull, masterclass level...

No. the day when a rivalry means more than fair play and sportsmanship is the day football dies.
