Keirrison was once fill with promise n expectation turn out to be flop, guess he's not barca type player..

our new set of target this season is try to avoid defeat , well after 6 trophies last season this pretty much the only thing left...

what? they must b one hell of a joker...but it could be caused by barca dominant ..u know madrid could easily on top of the league if it wasn't for barca presence..they quite good this season. but not good enough but maybe its still too early to judge...

i care less about Chyggy thou, but abidal is out for 2 months? wau..big blow to our defense...how is toure? anybody know?..he can play as cb if necessary..

looked quite offensive to me, i dunno but, dont u think pep should go for a bit defensive formation especially when the defense this time quite vulnerable..

xavi out is not a big deal, iniesta can shift to his position, plus we hav jds, thiago, or jefferen that can play on the left ...problem now we out of holding mid n i dont trust busq on that position..without keita or toure our back 4 gonna suffer twice more pressure especially when we lose the ball.. n i dont want to talk about our defender right now, damn those injuries..

he's good, in fact a bit too skillful for holding mid n what wrong that? he tends to overdo with the ball in unnecessary position of the pitch, gave away the ball when he suppose to hold the ball n play it simple ,.now, he's still young n has a lot of potential but mayb with all those injuries hit barca he should be given chance to play a bit further upfront..

is that azpilicueta?..he's 1 of the best young rb in laliga, alves need someone to fight his place...juan mata, im a big fan of his, love to see him play for barca...ribery, a bit too old i suppose...whose that man u player, john oshea?..

i said a bit too old plus bayern definitely want handsome of money just to make an agreement, ..i prefer barca splash the money for mata..

even zambrotta n thuram struggle during their time wit barca, i just hope this just a rumor thou because i cant see anything positive signing him..

well do u mind explain why?...for me i dont like to watch him play few years ago where i more prefer to see riquelme as cm than him because he rarely do anything with the ball, but i take it back, he's far more superior than i think he was n glad to see he stick with us until now..

on the side note, pique just renewed his contract which see him play for barca untill 2015...

2 points margin, its never this tight b4

im with u on this one, valdes arguably one of the most underrated goalkeeper in spain history,, i think cassilas is still spain no 1, because so far he haven't show any sign of slip up yet but to think that valdes is not part of spain world cup squad, that is ridiculous ...to be honest i think valdes technically better than reina,..barca playing open football, meaning that we playing further upfront which sometimes leaves our defense open..i dunno , i seem to lost count already how many times he managed to denied striker chance to score in 1 on 1 situation..

well even if he did been called, he probably gonna sit on bench, but it going to b massive of exp just to b in the worldcup,..i really want to see him playing fr spain, hope del Bosque will included him as part of his plan...

but the fact is, he is underrated in spain n that is something that we cant argue about, till he been given his chance to prove him self as one of spain best the doubt will always remain with him..


i watched reina play for liverpool, yes, he did made mistakes n great saves as well,, as for diego i dint watch much of his game, but critics does rate him good i guess most of us agree with that but how on earth he managed to b third choice?,,just by playing good? even palop n valdes r doing good..the point is, he haven't show anything yet in big stages compare to his other competitors which right now is valdes...

but to be in the spain national team, what should u do to be in that position, do u need to let people say u good or u prove it by winning trophies ?..experience does matter here something that pepe and reina r lack at the moment,. valdes proved him self at every position he could do, he has more big games in his career n so far he did well with all those trophies coming ...u cant just pick keeper just because u think he is better than the other, u pick them because base on the statistic that prove that he is excellent..


this is how barca play, dominate possession, even madrid does that, in fact that's how big team does..u cannot possibly bring this argument, especially the stats proved that he best at making save as well..

Added on March 5, 2010, 5:46 pmwhen i come to think of this, mayb because nobody expect valdes to play untill now, when he 1st made his debut, some say he just temporary gk for us, give him 2 years he surely leave..but he managed to reclaim his spot until today, guess some media in spain doesn't like to be proven wrong..

2 own goals from puyol, i red card, 2 goals from messi..

very very poor performance by ibra..

why manu on the other side of the draw?,,im hoping that we finish them off b4 final n facing inter in the final

anyway, arsenal now is the obstacle, without xavi, this going to b a bit tough especially to those who want to see xavi vs cesc battle..

tactical point of view, we hav a lot of potential players that can b put as replacement for xavi,, toure or jds for me could b useful not to mention keita since they a bit vulnerable when the opposition trying bully them in the midfield area , i bet toure will do fantastic job for that

incredible, another hatrick.. ..2nd goal was masterclass ...

how many chances did ibra wasted?, he could had his hatrick of his own, hope that penalty will give him more confident infront of the goal mouth nexttime....

actually during the match, ibra did gave a little stared at messi when messi scored, sign of pressure perhaps?

we all hav our own off days, its just the question on how we deal with it,, we proved that we r true champion bcos even thou we not playing up to the standard yet we managed to bag in 3 points, that's what separate the great from the best..

i dont see any reason why henry needs to play if ibra is fit
