Don't know why players do that stupid stutter step garbage. Messi didn't start sucking at penalties until he started doing it. Neymar does it too and he seems to miss a lot as well. The worst part is you look extra stupid when you miss.

It's supposed to help as to see where the keeper is going but no decent keeper falls for that when you do it 1 metre before the freaking ball :lol:

Solid penalty, great save.

I didn't know he missed all of his in-game penalties with Spain. Are you sure? How many were there anyway? He's usually a decent penalty taker.

Fabregas: "Bayern have it easier [than Premier League clubs] because they win the league early and then have holidays from January to February."

Cesc Fabregas: "EPL is the most competitive league, but the best players are at Barça and Madrid. Behind them, there's Bayern"

In a way it is true... Bayern definitely has it easier than EPL teams like city and Chelsea and la liga barca and real. Winter break also helps. Bayern can only be mentioned along with real and barca right now because of pep. If not then they are one level below Madrid and barca but still better than every EPL team though.

They won the treble without Guardiola. If anything, the blame for their exit (and the humiliating manner of it) from Europe in last two seasons can be directly laid at Guardiola's feet. Guardiola is doing a very good job overall, but one should not play down how well run Bayern have been as a club since 2010.

The treble bayern sqauds is nothing short of amazing. Ribery and robben at the peak. Ofcourse they would win something. I don't think they would have done better if pep didn't go there. In fact he made the transition much faster. For us we had messi if no messi we would be in serious danger. Bayern didn't have anyone like that... The team pep build is very great. I think pep to Bayern worked for the both the parties quite well. Bayern are being feared right now. Remove pep that will reduce a little. Not saying pep is the only one who could achieve that.

a team that made it to UCL finals in 2010, 2012, 2013
and semis in 2014, and 2015 isn't barca, madrid level for you without pep?
