We will probably lose a few matches. But even then our lead is so great its very hard to picture us giving away la liga. If we throw it away now it will be an immense bottling job. We can even say that in january.

That last dribble was classic Messi. Hemakes everything look so easy.

He does really try but even at best he wont be more than a back up. We should sell him in a summer but when he gives his all I dont mind him as a rotation player.

For 3 days after we will destroy Espanyol and be back to normal.

We would start to lack height and strength again. Especially if we replace Rakitic with a 170cm guy again we will be back to 3 players above 180 Again with one of them being Busquets who is about as strong in the air as Iniesta. Suarez does a lot of defensive work on set pieces and can also...

Its true. With a team like us he could get 30+ in la liga rather than barely break 20 with Atletico even when he takes the penalties there.

There is reason for psg to do this. They know Neymar is the future. It would really happen if Neymar wasnt there. I think Perez will gice Ronaldo and Zidane atleast one more season even if they lose against psg.

We can get have Griezmann for 5 years at his best imo. Two of those years we can have Suarez. We can add a 23 year old after that who will be a starter at 25/26 for us in his prime for years to come. If we dont get Griezmann now and Suarez is past it fir sure in a few years. We would need to...

Never would have thought we would have walked la liga like this. Its even easier than mou’s last season. Atletico performs how we expect and finish in the early 80’s. Valencia performs way better but also wont exceed that. Real completely bottled it while we are actually really good result wise...

He is still arguably the most popular player in the workd with a huge reputation due to the messi vs Ronaldo hype. People will always look if there is a case to give it to one of them first.

Yes but some are more high pressure than others of course. Chelsea penalty had way more pressure than the Arsenal one for example. I dont think its possible to get to a solid conclusion without researching the penalties and ranking them in pressure. But even then its open to interpretation a...

Its difficult to find since you need to look back at every penalty to view if it was high pressure when he took it. Still though, if you take into consideration 6 scored, 2 missed in cl ko, Scored all classico penalties, has a 90+% scored in la liga (think it was like that last year), scores in...

You implied that he chokes more often under pressure by saying it would cause his conversion rate to drop significantly. It doesnt really matter though. It seems his conversion rate stays similair to his overal percentage regardless if its a pressure kick or not. I think for a lot top penalty...

Isnt it confirmation bias though? We fear messi to miss since we support Barca. We also remember misses more than converted penalties. Where as for me it feels like Ronaldo never misses. Obviously he is better at penalties but their records is way closer than you would think beforehand. To me it...

He scored in the copa america in 2011 vs uruguay in a shoot out, was the only guy to score vs Chile the year before the initial miss. He isnt the bottler you guys make him out to be. Not to say he is le tissier when it comes to important penalties but its way more likely he will score than...

Arsenal twice, milan twice, psg once, city once. But thats the point if its a malaga away 80minute penalty at 0-0 while we are level in points 3 games before the end for ecample thats way more pressure than a cl return where this first match was 3-0.

Top of my head he scored 6 and missed two.

That would be only logical due to the pressure but its actially the other way around I think. He missed a shitload in pointless copa games but always scored in classico’s cl ko’s (bar chelsea+city) and nt penalties /shoot outs (bar chille last time).

I feel you would not cripple yourself in sucha terrible way that its impossible to overcome. Say a team takes this approach now. Talents wont be so eager to join but those who do know the consequences. You can target foreign talent and 26 year olds like you said for the short term. Then when...

Griezman is logically the player most likely set to join us.
