I think there is still variety on our thin attack because of Iniesta/Fab versatility. Plus Cuenca and Alexis back soon. Hopefully Pedro will be able to rediscover some old form with his recovery - I mean he was still chasing and harassing as good as ever - the spirit was willing, but...

Well anyone who criticizes him after a few poor games really needs to get perspective on how great his stats already are this season, not to mention during the time when we are/were playing for the trophies, Messi stepped up against Madrid/Porto. Combined with being tired and natural fluctuation...

Great post Zachary!

I dont think Leo will ever leave - or if he does in the twilight years of his career, I've read somehwere that he wants to go back to Argentina to his boyhood club.

I used to dislike him years ago because he was bloody good for a team that I didn't like. Now I have nothing but respect for the man.

Keita will be missed when he hangs up the boots - you all wait and see when there is no one of his quality wanting to be a squad player!! :p Watching his goal gets better and better everytime I see it!!! He is truly twinkle toes.

If we want someone purely to replace what Pinto currently does in our side... I'd recommend Oscar De La Hoya or Manny Pacquiao. If we're after a second goal-keeper, I voted a youngster from Barca B!

We've been hit with injuries, but still fielding an amazing side. We're currently sitting first in CL group and La Liga but we still got Cesc, Alexis, Pique and Affellay to come back ;)

I agree with what you're saying. But if he keeps up his running/work rate to me his in the best 11. As we see with other forwards though, once he pots 2 or 3 goals, those days of every kick being a goal may just creep back into his game!! ;)

We'll have to secretely tell him to drop off the pace a few months before his buy-back time comes around if he continues playing like he did against Genk!

I cant even do that on my playstation playing as Messi!

DAT move for the first goal... :wub:

I didnt read any fitness problems but with his age and recent injury problems I'd say he is just being managed throughout the season, so he wont be featuring in the 2 games per week schedule as those younger than him do. That being said, I therefore expect him to start against Sevilla and if he...

Actually I agree with stoke, even when Pedro is off form he chases and harrasses to win the ball back running all the way to defence. He also seems relatively happy as a squad player should that ever be the case (unlikely with heavy rotations). So his final ball has been a bit off but I think he...

vs Viktoria CL Iniesta Messi Villa

I think posts by zanela and Anfield were insightful and there wouldn't be too much more to add. I think trying to inspire your teammates as a captain and come both as a direct and indirect method. If you're the quiter type of guy, indirectly inspring them would be via example, putting your body...

That would be great to see Cesc back with some match fitness before Sevilla, but I dont think he has been included in the squad. Either way all these minutes Thiago is racking up is top experience for him to learn how to anchor the midfield in years to come (with him and Fab!).

Xavi still brings his own football to the games he participates in :p

Dont know if you guys have seen but over here in Australia, Figo is in a men's hair colour ad on TV which is absolutely hilarious! I couldnt believe it was him, doing an ad for an Australian mens hair product of all things!

From my understanding I got agree with the majority that the Old Firm rivalry eclipses the Man U vs Liverpool one. Although I'm just going off what a few of my cousins in the UK have mentioned over the years.
