I missed this thread since I was not active and barely around the forum during 2013, but I'm always honored to be amongst all the members here. Galning and Razor, thank you very much for the mentioning now that I saw the voting, cheers to you guys and to all the other members that contribute to...

This weekend was great. Elche and Osasuna did us favors by holding Villarreal and Sociedad respectively. Now seems like nothing has changed from last Wednesday, even though we lost to Celta. Still 6 points behind you. It will be very interesting until the end, now everything depends on maturity...

Still 5th, 6 points behind Bilbao (4th)... the dream goes on !

Premier League "derbies" ... pfff !

For Cup games (knockout-phase), if score is level at FT, play until the game is won. What does this exactly mean ? Playing even 24 hours until one team scores or what's the deal :p ?

You're a Bilbao fan ? How nice :p Get ready for a real finale derby for that 4th spot if things go as planned until then.

That would be quite a change in Atleti's playing style and philosophy. Gabi, Suarez, Tiago, Koke are all tough men in the midfield. Rakitic will never achieve their speed and/or work rate during a match, the man-marking, aggressiveness when needed. He would probably not do more of what Diego is...

:lol: It's quite interesting though how Simeone does not favor rotations and besides maximum 1-2 changes in the formation (very rarely), he always fields the same players. It has been like that since the Supercopa duels against Barca. They have been successfully competing now in La Liga (1st -...

Indeed. Quite well so far. However, 4th spot is the sweetest.

Of course. Besides not being the 'golden age Sevilla', this season we sold like 5-6 players, released a couple and loaned out a couple, while signed and loaned in around 10-11 players. It is almost a whole new team, and the interesting part is that they have gelled quickly. Anyway, I think next...

Believe me, only occasionally.

They won't, will also beat Valencia comfortably.

Yep. Psychological fail at its best. The team couldn't keep the feet on the ground, quite simple. Hoping to do well in EL now and finish the season in the best way possible. 4th place is now still very far, probably unreachable, optimism aside.

Just wrote about this "trend" in Valdes thread. Very sad...

Possible, even though Arda has been a gem for them this season. Only Cerezo knows.

Rakitic is a very good player... he plays well and helps the squad a lot. After all, he is Sevilla's captain this season and I admire him, his character and skills, especially his long balls, corner kicks and free kicks (crosses in the box, as he rarely shoots from a free kick). Nevertheless, I...

I think Pinto will continue the job just as well. What I like in him is that he seems to be very energetic and active as a GK, and that is always an advantage. I hate lazy keepers.

:lol:

Hope he gets well soon and everything goes great in his life. This season was probably his best ever at Barca, he was crucial with some nice saves throughout the season and it will be a pity for Barca not to have him until the end of the season. As for the national team, I doubt Del Bosque would...

What the hell Bayern ? Pep influence :p
