I don't think you actually need Villa... You have the starting line-up, and few great young players as back up... If you ask me, your weakest part of the team is Valdes, and maybe 1 more central defender.. And you will be set, not that you are not now..
I lost alot of respect for you.... you must not have watched us play this season
he has been better then casillas this season.. our 2nd best player behind Messi
saved our asses so many times

Even if you ask our house madridista he will tell you valdez has been better then casillas L8ly.... I cant stress to you how important he has been this year and i cant think of any keeper in the world i would rather have at this moments of his career not to mention he is young in terms of keepers ages

Fair enough.. As I said, haven't seen La Liga much, and those matches i have seen Barca, he didn't really had a job to do.. So i am not the one who should judge, as i said, it is just my opinion, and it is based on previous seasons...
yes based on previous seasons this is prolly a fair statement alot of cules were seething at him at some points but he has won everyone over now

again, this is not a thread on discussing who we should sign.
get out of here if you want to discuss that.

that's true. the problem with that, as evidenced from the first leg of the Arsenal game is that Maxwell doesn't have the pace to get back when someone as fast as Walcott is paired up against him. Abidal on the other hand can do quite nicely.
it gives you a much better appreciation for what our team does. esp this year w/ Pep's experimentation.
thanks J. please read the Original Post before replying in this thread. Benj you should have known better. I'm furiously disappointed in you.

irv, i think we were very conventional with the 4-3-3 during the first leg and hence the lack of double marking on our left hand side allowed walcott with the time and space to cause havok.
i think this 3-3-3-1 in attack and 4-2-3-1 is perfect to counter the pace of cristiano in the el clasico. i am of belief that cristiano and walcott have similar speeds during runs and would be exploiting any space that maxwell leaves behind. it would also nullify the presence of their trequarterista (amc).
i think pep would go with that in the clasico rather than 4-3-3.

yup ... Pep did go w/ the 4-3-3 in the first leg. I was just pointing out a problem w/ Maxwell when he attacks in the 4-2-3-1.
and I totally agree w/ Pep using the 4-2-3-1 in the Clasico. Esp with Iniesta and Ibrah not 100%, and Abidal out. I worry about Cristiano and Higuian exploiting Maxwell/Puyol though. And Milito at CB.
damn.
and don't worry about it Pajo.

chat doesn't work for me for some reason oh well ... the FCB lineup for El Clasico is something out of either genius or madness from Pep ... k ... total edit ... here is the lineup and formation:
---------------------- VV
-- El Capitan --- Pique -------- Milito --- Maxwell
------------------- Busquets
--- Alves ----- Xavi -------- Kieta ----- Pedro
-------------------- Messi
That's CRAZY!! Pep does it again. first the 4-3-3 to the 4-2-3-1 ... and now a 4-1-4-1 w/ Alves as RMW ... I love it. whether or not it'll work is another thing.

GolTV had it as a 4-1-4-1 ... but you could view it as a 4-1-3-2 as well ... it's really going to depend how the attack on the pitch before we know which lineup it is. either way I love it. Pep hasn't sacrificed anyone's ability/strength and it'll allow Maxwell to bomb forward and rely on Busquets to cover his gap. El Capitan will prove defensive cover and allow Alves to bomb forward.
