[FCBarca]

BTW, ITV had a program on the past hour - Barcelona's greatest goals...Gotta find it on DL, it has been a real treat

pretty confident we will win this, hopefully grab an early goal..

really hope it doesnt go to extra time with villarreal in 2/3 days..

+1

Very poor performance all around.
Good 2nd goal.

great teams win matches that they have no business winning. considering who we were missing, who was playing out of position, and how off form everyone was, I'll freaking take it.

I don't wanna see people bitching about FCB "only" winning 2-0 and playing like "shit" ... cuz you people make me sick. Enjoy the fact that this team is capable of winning titles when not at 100% and please remember that we are still in August.

Never understood trophy counts. Does this and the Spanish super cup count toward last year, or this year?

Another day, Another game, Another win, Another trophy.

messi saved our asses once again .. he's already lethal in August .. am guessing the humidity was terrible and took alot of the players..

the players were far from sharp. Hope they get sufficient rest before Monday.

We always seem to start slowly in cup finals, which is kinda strange, if a team actually managed to score in that first 20minutes it would be interesting.
Valdes and Abidal were sloppy, but Messi saved us again.. if he gets injured we're so screwed.
Glad Cesc scored, and dont reallyy wanna open the Thiago debate again, but Cesc is always gonna be number one sub for a CM spot.. if he wasnt here it would be Thiago coming on, although i have no problem with that.. im hoping Thiago will be happy just playing the cup games and the odd league match at home for a season or two. (assuming we have no major injuries)
Masch again proving he is an awesome CB, even winning some headers

Last year, I believe. That's why the 2009 season was a "sextuple" even though 3 of the trophies (both super cups and the club world cup) came during the next season.

This game just shows how off form we are at the moment, and yet we still beat Madrid over two legs. Amazing.
