    Andrés Iniesta

    Couldn't have said it better. Iniesta is a true artist! Every touch, move, adjustment of his weight... absolutely amazing player to watch :worthy:

    Laurent Koscielny

    Clubs have a huge smile on their face when they see Barcelona coming :facepalm: 15-20 for Koscielny? Just like Vermaelen and Agger, Kos is pretty injury prone and has a knack for own goals. Our CB targets should be obvious (Martinez, Marquinhos, Mangala, Juan, Vertonghen, N'Koulou...

    New 2013-2014 kits

    :facepalm: Thank God I love the short sleeve kit. Pique needs to skip the long sleeve and wear blau longsleeves under a short sleeve jersey.

    Confederations Cup 2013 - Final: Brazil 3-0 Spain

    Even though it was an absolutely boring 2nd half... Spain still continue to show they are the best side in the world. 1 question... Spain at the senior and u21 level apply the 6-second rule where players like Xavi, Iniesta, Pedro, Cesc & Alba don't look exhausted or unable... why weren't Barca...

    UEFA European U21 Championship

    Though it may not happen every game... it is very typical of Italy (2006 WC, Euro 08). Euro 2012 was an exception where they did play very well. My apologies if it offended anyone, I'm just not a fan of il Azzuri.

    UEFA European U21 Championship

    WTF! How many times have we seen this from Italy... play a shitty ass foul ridden, over dramatized, crying/whining match with barely any possession or shots on target yet they manage to win. Once it went 0-0 into the 75th minute I knew this was going to happen. The Dutch were impressive with...

    Crouch or Klose

    OMG how is this even a poll? Klose hands down all day everyday. 1 Lucky 30m volley isn't going to put you anywhere near the level of class Klose has displayed for Club/Country.

    Lamela scored 15 goals in an ultra defensive league... he is a Barca style striker. Neymar - Messi - Lamela would be a great front line. Being that Lamela is also 6'0 when the fullbacks bomb forward he has the height to latch onto a cross. He'll be a fantastic signing compared to the rumored...

    FFS man... First my response was to someone who said it would be great to get Lewandowski then put together this formation Neymar - Messi - Lewandowski. Why the hell buy Lewandowski for the wing? It makes no sense. He is as out and out CF. I went on to say if he was purchased he needs to play as...

    14 - Javier Mascherano

    WTF? Maybe he has some pent up resentment for being played out of position all year? lol

    We don't have to play like that week in week out. In La Liga our norm is fine, we just need to tighten up our defense. Against the big clubs of Europe that Milan strategy would come in handy (Plan B, versatility, alternatives, backup plan)

    No Dr. Contrary... using Guardiola is a bad example as his versatile genius is why FC Barcelona is as great as it is. Mentored in the school of Voetball Totaal by Cruyff himself the key has always been SPACE. How to use it, create it, move it, and dominate it. You and semi-neutral have been lost...

    Sad that you have to ask that after our convo thus far. Sorry man, you clearly don't understand football tactics or haven't read anything I've said in my posts. We're not buying a CF anytime soon so don't worry. Messi will continue @ False 9 :thumbsup2:

    What doesn't make sense is you proved my point but still need to argue against yourself.

    Seriously are you guys this thick headed? You just said what I've been saying. Take your sentance and ... Messi starts on the right and is more or less given a free role to go where he wants, he is not winger. LOL So? and he didn't do that when Eto'o was on the team? Messi didn't score from a...

    It's funny that a CF works for every team in the world but not for us. While as a person he's a true douche, CRybaby7 plays on the flank with strikers at CF. He still manages 50+ goals a season. We can (will) continue Messi @ False 9 but not having anything different to offer teams like...

    It wouldn't be a mistake. Continually doing the same thing especially when it doesn't work is a mistake. Messi at CF didn't work this year outside of La Liga where we didn't play minnows like Osasuna & Valladolid. Watch any Barcelona match, when Messi drops all the way to half way line to...

    +1 to both. What would be the point of buying a CF like Lewandowski only to waste him on the R/LW. Someone also said "he wouldn't have to stay on the wing". Why even bother to start him there? A position where he is of no threat. If you remember the home match against Milan, Messi played on the...
