You know, as a sixth division football player. How the heck they find runs like that? It's impossible. First, to make that run, you have to believe someone is capable of passing to you. Of course, Ronaldinho helps in this case. Haha. Great goal.

Insane pass by Ronaldinho.

Remember when Barcelona won the World Cup?

Messi could easily have played for Spain and put any and all doubts about his status as the greatest player of all time to bed right then and there.

hell of a team

The 09/10 season is the biggest let down. Instead on building strong on the sextuple season we fucked up. First by letting Eto'o leave, while getting Ibra. Then forcing Busi in the lineup instead of Yaya. We lost so much physicality and drive without those two in the starting lineup. The biggest reason we lost against Inter, is the absence of those two.

If they just kept Eto'o and bought Villa a season earlier, while keeping Yaya as an undisputed starter, our history would have been so much better.

To make matters worse, the CL final that year was played at the Bernabeu.

Statement on Joan Laporta

Freixa: "Those who left the club in 2010 with more debt than billing and the need to request a ? 150M loan proclaim that 'we will do it again.' What do they want to do again ... about Viladecans? Buy land that was worth 3 million for 18?"

Yamal at the centre and Xavi and Dinho relegated to the periphery? Pathetic.


Xavi and Dinho are huge figures for Barca's history and should be the most prominent after Messi and Cruyff.
