Well taken goal by him, he'll get massive confidence from that. Was his overall performance good?

Never been called one but do get some odd looks when I tell people who I support. There are enough real glory hunters in England so it's an easy argument to use.

Exactly Aasim, we don't know what sort of instructions he's been given. Pep may well have told him to conserve energy for the bigger games coming up in Feb March. His first goal in particular was brilliant, nice for him to bag two and catch CR a bit. He was certainly below par tonight but hardly...

He's definitely a talented player, world class no but certainly CL standard when he puts his mind to it. I think he'll do reasonably well at Madrid. Not a Faubert signing for me, he'll play and score some goals, but he won't ever be as devastating as Llorente. This move will definitely motivate...

I hope he stays and signs the contract, IMO he would be extremely difficult to replace. He's entitled to seek a new challenge though, he's been a brilliant player for this club and a major part of Pep's successful era.

Lush goal by Seydou last night. Awesome pass from Leo and a really cool finish from Keita.

Yeh first half overall he was good, two lovely assists, but obv messed up his best chance straight at Asenjo. Second half was basically just him trying to score and everyone going to ridiculous lengths to play him in. Of course it'd be nice for him to beat CR to the Pichichi, but we all know Leo...

Nice finish in the first half. Unlucky not to score earlier than that. That's sad news about him and his gf, hopefully it doesn't affect his form too much but you never know, he is human after all, the way he plays we sometimes forget this :lol:

Pity he didn't get more minutes. He looked nervous as you'd expect, but got involved with possession and I'm sure he's going to fit in very quickly.

I've been to four home matches, first was in 2002. I also went to the away game at Sevilla in 2006 that was rained off. That thunderstorm was incredible. :worthy:

Totally agree Nolan. He's certainly shown he does have the ability to play well at CB and not be a total liability like he previously was. But we really don't want him as our first back up CB IMO, what if Maxwell and a CB are injured?

Exactly desoe, which is why I personally voted for Ibra. By far one of the best players (if not the best) on that list in terms of ability and quality of performances for Barca. He wasn't great but was by no means a disaster, else we wouldn't have won the league. But for me this is a poll of our...

He was only on for 20mins, probably less! Barely had any involvement, perhaps should have been better positioned for the goal, but is still a far better CB than Abi (who is playing very well there currently). He always plays well with Pique as their styles compliment eachother. Hopefully we'll...

Definitely Plip. Until he's had a run of games and inevitably scored goals (we know he can) he's not going to build up the confidence in his own abilities. And he won't improve as a football simply through training and cameo appearances.

Definitely. Some truly dreadful moments from him at times, but still had a hand in both goals (although should have shot on the first, Pedro had to remake the chance!). First game back though so some mistakes are inevitable.

:lol: Awesome comparison. Another brilliant performance, I'm glad he's returned to his goalscoring best again, he's an important outlet. Brilliant finish for the 2nd. Unlucky to hit the bar else he'd have had 3.

Brilliant when he came on. He oozes quality on the ball, reminds me a lot of Deco in the way he moves and plays. If continues to improve as we'd expect there is no room for Cesc at the club.

Don't think he dived for that booking tbh, he ran straight into the defender, wasn't a foul but he didn't throw himself down. He's still very lightweight, easily pushed off the ball a lot. I'm surprised they haven't bulked him more like they did with Messi at this age. Feel sorry for the lad but...

Incredible achievement from Xavi, what a club legend he is. Not his best game today tbh, gave the ball away far more than usual, but we won so no bother.

Shakhtar effectively got a fair few million for loaning Chyg to us for a year!
