Didn't Mourinho instruct Real players to foul Messi?
This is just low-key trolling on your part. I know that you know nobody to think Barca were flawless.
Here's a question - what's wrong with fouling? No shortage of overtly aggressive sides.
@Blaugrana
When did Pepe try to injure someone vs Barca? Funny thing how he got this tag after Getafe in 2009 and never got rid of it despite receiving I think not a single red card in 8 years of La Liga since and had at least two seasons where he hasn't been suspended for yellows. Dude repented more than anyone and some folk will still point to the Alves theatre as evidence of something. Claim 'of intent to injure' is almost always a knee jerk thing passed off as fact and often bogus i.e. fans claiming Ramos tried to injure Salah in Kiev.
Ramos I assume you refer to the lashing out on Messi at the end of the manita as there's just about no other incident that can be brought up and pretty sure he was banned for violent conduct afterward.
When did either of those show their 'true' colours? I think Ramos colours are pretty much in the open since the beginning of time.
Any other instance someone tried to injure a Barca player I'd forgotten? Or is this a blanket way of treating every kind of stomp as evidence for something more than what it was? Conflation of thuggery and assault is sadly all too common.
I will talk about Neymar as it's also a source of funny hypocrisy. Only funnier when dismissed as a counterpoint.
As for the flawless - yes, there was an image which was and still is supported by a contingent who will balk at the suggestion of that team's wrongdoing or any acts of classlessness waved off with 'you're one to talk, your club did x' way instead of admitting it. That all-time great 11 from 2009-2011 had probably 2 players who couldn't be accused of being a covert tosser - Abidal and Puyol. Sorry.
