Barca fans are so afraid of a little swagger and attitude, its kind of astonishing that you guys would talk of Pogba in this way when you guys had Romario, Cruijff, Deco, Ronaldinho and Etoo, players that are hardly church boys, who made you once great and now Neymar who is making you great as...

This guy just might be the most fascinating winger since Joaquin and Denilson for me.

Carvajal had a fever?

He is just more terrible than others because he would be in ample space and make the WORST crosses.

Exactly. Again, Exactly. Modric is a fantastic player but when he beats players, he beats them defensively, not offensively, but his position dictates that. This is where we need Isco to develop as an attacking Interior and for Toni Kroos to cover up space better. Ronaldo was misfiring, but...

His first touch yesterday was garbage, it was never great but yesterday it was lacking. However, the entire final 3rd was poor yesterday. Am I seeing things or has Benzema's total of 1 assist hurt Ronaldo this season for a personal gain of 21 goals in 20 games?

Are you honestly of the opinion that there is little difference? There was nothing similar between Rafa's team and Zidane's approach which is far from fine tuned. Rafa used to retreat and fold, yesterday there was terrible final 3rd passing but the team kept on coming in waves and played with...

He is not going anywhere, not until that motorway is complete in Colombia.

The worst thing about Isco is that he holds onto the ball too long near midfield and thats great tactically, but when he is close to the goal, he doesn't let go quick enough, thats catastrophic offensively.

Nevermind Isco's contribution in the CL that we won? Goal against Borussia, his defensive contribution against Bayern and his tactical awareness is more than what I can say for any of the BBC. But he dipped in form, and was always the one dropped for Bale for no specific reason even though he...

Because of Bale's injury? Well this is an opportunity for him, but the thing is, in the words of Ancelotti, he is a player for the future, this was in reference to Real Madrid's planning of offloading Ronaldo, which might be difficult now with the transfer ban. In any case, for the only way to...

There is a lot more way to downgrade this score than saying Benitez would pummel Gijon too. Benitez worked wonders and did the impossible to make you rethink life.

Play him on the right side of a diamond and he will shine or a compact 442. He sucks in a 433.

Till this day, you have teenagers who never watched Ronaldo, idolize him. He hasn't been forgotten but there are players who remain relevant like Figo and Zidane, and those who disappear like Batistuta and Maldini and Ronaldo. Part of it is celebrity status. Zidane is a celebrity, Iniesta isn't...

Not really, but Ronaldinho's main issue was that he fell from grace really badly, Zidane never did. Ronaldinho's win in the World Cup at 22 was attributed to Ronaldo and Rivaldo and then he was the scape goat in 2006.

Zidane is idolized because he was a captain of the France national team. Zidane came back out of retirement to lead France back into the World Cup when they were failing with Henry. It isn't about who is better, because Iniesta has a tremendous case to overshadow Zizo but he is shy, did not...

Fix the system and he will shine again. Tempt him to goof and he will goof.

He is not Di Maria.

This is a huge (non)point. To be honest this has become very noticeable especially in the last two games when the players CLEARLY could up them tempo when they wanted, and why they did it sparingly is beyond my knowledge. However, this is a manager's job, this is the end all be all. Motivating...

I was guaging my eyes when I saw the line up that is a carbon copy of Ancelotti's knowing that Ancelotti who invented it suffered from it himself but Rafa added his own flavor, he LEFT OUT THE BIGGEST TRICK TO IT: The COMPACT 4 FUCKING 4 2 that Ancelotti worked on for MONTHS. What a fuckin twat...
