5 - Carles Puyol

[mitkoa7x]

hopefully he will not play the whole tournment & take a rest

Rest from what? He played like 10 games (started in half of them i guess).

 

[Galning]

He is the personification of Barça.

I will fucking cry when he retires, same thing for Xavi. El Capitan and El maestro have been so awesome, I can remember van Gaal promoting them now watching them retire in a few years will remind me how life in football works . ALL HAIL PUYI!

Neymar (Santos): "It's an honour to play against Puyol. I'll try to make him suffer a bit and then ask to change shirts."

nice quote from the kid. too bad puyi is going to eat his lunch and then allow him to have the honor of touching his #5.

The only mistake I can think of was the opportunity he gave to Benzema 15 minutes before the end of the game.

Otherwise he won all the direct duels with everyone.

He is the definition of a big game player something which Pep has said on countless occasions.

No he did not, Ronaldo cut in past him, and past Pique and then fell at the slightest touch.

There is no replacement for this beast

 

[Myrmecophile]

Absolute beast

There is no replacement for this beast

We should try finding one.

And fast.

 

[La Furia]

There will never be another Puyol.

Though we should be finding someone who can mitigate the loss.

 

[dalitis8]

Textually, your statement is correct.

But we should be looking for a top of the draw CB, otherwise the gap left in our backline, will be analogous to the hole at the end of Mourinho's digestive system.
