What a talent and player that this guy is. Fits like a glove and exactly the type of midfielder that our midfield was screaming for during the past few seasons. Verratti who? It has to be said Robert and Andre Curry struck gold with Arthur. Obviously he was highly rated in Brazil and came off a...

Fucking ironic that outsiders like me (although very well-informed club members unlike some of the other dinosaurs) can spot such problematics from miles away and thus would never risk it yet our brilliant manager and management seemingly have no problems doing such insanely irresponsible and...

Exactly. You hear this lie being repeated nonstop. When people are discussing what Ronaldo does better it is usually (mostly) the goalscoring that is highlighted. However even that is inaccurate by a wide margin. It's funny because the only reason why this comparison even exists in the first...

Don't really care about the Messi-C. Ronaldo "rivalry" and comparisons but I can't stand hearing people with zero football knowledge and zero understanding of the game (most "football fans" nowadays due to the game being more global than ever) who judge players based on Youtube videos and...

Even when not at his fully best he is head and shoulders above any other player in the world. No point in even comparing him with the tap-in merchant. It was thanks to him that we escaped those dreadful 15-20 minutes right after Lyon's goal (that should have been disallowed) unharmed...

A very good performance in the first half reminiscent of the old Suárez but unfortunately back to the Donkey Suárez version in the second half. His awful CL statistic continues as well.:facepalm: This has to be his final season as an indisputable starter no matter if he scores hat-tricks in...

My exact thought. What a great "problem" to have. Really surprised how great that Piquénbauer-Lenglet partnership is. Superb so far.

Piquénbauer with another masterclass. How can any sane person doubt this guy? It is the same story each year and mostly the same ending. When will people learn? Never doubt this guy. The best defender (continuously) for the past 10+ years in world football. Can't think of any other that has been...

5-1. Close to calling it. In any case the win did not really change at how I look at the team or Valverde. It's Messi doing everything (as usual) and mostly mental midgets (with few exceptions) in case of the smallest adversity in the CL. After Lyon scored their goal on their second chance of...

A shame that many users here and fans as a whole seem to be "praising" Coutinho for a bang average performance (considering his insane price tag, expectations and past performances in Liverpool) against a bang average Lyon side. That goal was created by Arthur and Messi. 90% (if not more) users...

Not the least surprised that he did well. Hardly seen him play a bad game against elite teams. Always seems to perform well against the likes of PSG in Ligue 1 or against top teams in the CL. Had an amazing performance against City as well in the group stage. Not the least surprised that he...

Well, usually quarter-finals are played in the first week of April so I thought that the same was the case this year. Might be due to there being no World Cups or EURO's this time around. In any case it only helps as much as he MIGHT be ready for the quarter-finals return leg. He will still...

No point in even discussing with CR7 fanboys on a freaking Barça forum why the narrative of C. Ronaldo always appearing in finals and great moments (already provided examples of him not convincing in 2/3 (!) of all his 6 major finals in his career to date, 5/7 if we include his EURO 2004 final...

It did not bother me at all. In fact I applauded his decision to stay at Atlético (although I wanted him to play for us) and not choose the easy option and be guaranteed trophies. A bit of loyalty is needed nowadays and I want as strong as possible rivals domestically. RM and Atlético (Valencia...

The CL-quarterfinals will be played on the 2 or 3 April. That is 19 or 20 days away from now. The return legs the following week. If he is out for 1 month (30-31 days in other words more than 4 weeks) as the local media reports he will be out for both CL-quarterfinals legs.

Porto. It's fairly close and it has been a while since we played a CL knockout stage in Portugal. Easiest opponent on paper. With Dembélé out I don't want us to play against pacy teams like Man City or Liverpool without Dembélé who is our sole pacy option in attack.

Even the best make wrong predictions at times. My track record is still great. Congratulations for finding a 3+ month old post that was written before the draw. In any case what I wrote was the case for several upon several seasons in a row. Atlético and Juve drew each other so obviously one of...

By failing I meant not winning and to be honest with you if I was Abramovich and had spent that fortune on a football club anything else than a CL win would be considered as failure. In particular if failing to win it for 8 seasons in a row (2003-2011). Much like the current PSG (2011-?)...

I have nothing against Bayern, usually the team that I "support" in Germany and also like Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg the most of all regions of Germany that I have visited (Southern Germany in other words) hence why I also have sympathy for Stuttgart. However the myth of Bayern being...

As fucking written. Now injured for 1 month and going to miss the CL quarter-finals. Great.:facepalm: Imbecile Malmierda and our staff must have brains the size of peanuts. Malcom playing (the same guy that scored 4 goals in 4 games against Lyon in his career) against a bang average Lyon team at...
