Like I said before, having difficult league games in between your CL ties makes everything all the more tough. But RM will have some more time between the Valencia game and the second leg than they did after the Sevilla game. They have a lot on their hands which is only good news for us. Now...

That still sounds like a pile of nonsense from Neuer.

I did not say that in 2005 La Liga was at an all time low. I said that La Liga was at a relative low. Massive difference between the two. La Liga was tops around 2000, then fell a little bit circa 2005, and around 2010 it became number one again. La Liga has actually improved significantly in...

In fact during the Eto'o/Ronnie era, La Liga was at a relative low. We were basically the only good team in it. Spanish teams were not doing as well in Europe then as they are doing now. Spain in fact during the Eto'o/Ronnie years lost its number one place to England. So no, La Liga was not...

Now, let's see what I actually said: Why do I rate Robben way above the rest of the BM players? He is almost always the one that stands out, and attacking initiative relies mostly on him. You number 2 man is Mueller, who is a brilliantly versatile player, albeit quite graceless.

One of the main reasons why opposition fans do not like to give Neymar any credit at all, is because they still can to a certain extent (does not have the legendary status and success of Messi, and remember that even Messi in this age was still not fully acknowledged, especially by the EPL fans)...

Some people are just uber-biased against Neymar. The mere fact that some of you are mentioning the meaningless dead rubber that was the Cordoba game so that you have something to accuse Neymar with is just very telling of your agenda. Just to find one game in which Eto'o was appalling (and a...

Missing sitters against Cordoba is nothing for us to worry about. We do not like seeing that but we also know that it is pointless. Neymar scoring against Bayern in a couple of days is worth way more than the "damage" caused by missing against Cordoba. There is zero equivalency between the two.

@BBZ Neymar's big goals this season. I may be forgetting some, so people feel free to correct me. 1. Reduced arrears vs PSG away with a brilliant curler. Crucial goal, very tough opponent. 2. Scored another brilliant opener vs Real Madrid in the Bernabeu. Mega goal, mega opponent. 3. Once...

Griezman is not average in any sense whatsoever, in fact he has shown to be basically world-class this season. He is just the latest in a long-line of brilliant Atletico forwards: Vieri, Heisselbank, Torres, Forlan, Aguero, Falcao and Costa. Now, away from stats or any other gibberish. Neymay...

Whoever we choose between Mascherano and Mathieu is going to be a compromise. On the one hand, Javier is the better player overall, and the better defender. But on the other hand, Jeremy has shown to be anything but a slouch this season. He is not WC by any means, but his height is something...

The only reason why Barca outscores all the other clubs is that we have the best forward line in the world. Of which Neymar is the youngest but also irreplaceable member.

I agree. Many Ney-haters are failing to acknowledge the brutal fact that Neymar has out-performed players such Ibra/Villa/Pedro/Alexis/Henry and even it seems Eto'o. I am fascinated to see what the Ney-haters will have to resort to next, if Neymar puts Bayern to the sword two nights from now...

Score against Bayern Ney! Shut all them haters up.

And some people persist with stale lies such as: "The league is more important than the CL" or "I prefer us to win the league than the CL" :lol: Just look at this ballistic thread!

If a player "rarely ever plays", and oscillated between "shit" and "good", and is also 32 years of age, it can only mean one thing: that player is finished at the top of the game.

I see Bayernista after Bayernista come in here and telling us outright that the only chance we have is because Bayern are missing players X, Y and Z. It's as if when Alaba and Ribery are in there, opposition teams run for the hills as fast they can. What are you people trying to tell us here...

@BBZ Games that have been played decades ago do not have any significance on today's football. For example, the fact that Slovan Bratislava defeated Barca in the Cup Winners Cup final of 1969 has no bearing on the relative power of Barca and Slovan today. The games played in very recent years...

I told you before, Robben is the real absence. Alaba and Ribery are not that critical. In fact, all of your best players (the mighty XI against which Barca would be overwhelming underdogs according to most BM fans) played versus Shaktar in Lvov (when they were playing with 11 men) and let me...

Like there ever was a shred of a doubt. I said it last week as well. Bayern playing theatrics here. They are missing one good player and making a Greek tragedy out of it.
