I was paranoid a few years ago that Messi was gonna be like this guy, just constantly injured. I think it was a great decision to have Messi bulk up a bit, he hasn't been seriously injured since.
Played quite bad for an entire match but then scored that wonderful goal.
Van Gaal wants to mimic Barca playing him on the right but he looks so wasted there. Particularly when they had panzer Gomez and Olic in the box.
I am fine with Madrid pushing for Ribery. He can help them yes but he's injury prone himself and I think he won't be as beneficial for them as Robben was. I don't want either of those two at Barcelona.
