    This. It's crazy. There is a huge cult following for him.

    Lliga: (El Clasico) FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 2-1

    I have that feeling for the league but not so much for CL. We don't have just one team to worry about (RM), we have two (RM and Bayern) which is what gives me doubts.

    UEFA Champions League 2014-15

    Since everybody is saying the draws they would like to have on here, I'll post mine: Bayern-RM. Kill two birds with one stone. The earlier one of these sides is knocked out, the better. Atleti-Monaco. Two defensive teams that will run themselves to the ground. Whoever gets one of these...

    Lliga: (El Clasico) FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 2-1

    S.Roberto in DM, Mascherano to replace Mathieu for CB.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Thanks. Hopefully he reaches 60. It's not unreachable if he continues this form.

    Gerard Piqué

    I get that impression also. I don't know if it's Lucho, but he seems much more alert and confident this season. It's like Lucho gave him a good ass-kicking on the practice grounds.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    How many goals in all competitions does he have so far? 45? Do you guys think he'll be able to reach 50 in la liga alone or would that be a stretch?

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Was Lucho the first coach to put Messi back to RW and actually keep him there throughout the match? I recall a few games last season where Messi started off as an RW, but it was apparent 5 mins into the game that he kept going back into the mid.

    Luis Enrique

    Yeah, the difference in quality is so apparent from last season. Not gonna lie, there were several matches that I did not watch last season simply because I was falling asleep about 20-30 minutes into the match. I'm a big Barca fan and will always support them, but the power of sleep is a bit...

    Penal Madrid

    He starts on the right but still cuts into the middle a lot. The big difference is that now, since his initial position is on the deep right wing, it draws all the defenders/mids of the opposing team towards that direction. This creates enough space for our mids and forwards to control the...

    Penal Madrid

    Not sure if srs. Pepe would get eaten alive as a DM. He is a horrible dribbler and his ball retention is mediocre. He is really good at tackling and winning aerial duels, 2 things that are important as a CB. In DM you need to have positional awareness (which he lacks) and ability to retain the...

    Luis Enrique

    Now to prepare for RM! This match will define our league chances! A win with a 3 goal difference and I would be more than pleased! 4 points ahead and even if we are tied up at the season, we would still take the title!

    1 - Marc-Andre ter Ansplant

    Someone please find the vine of it!

    Pep Guardiola

    Not sure if being sarcastic or not. If so, you can go ahead and look at their squad. Only positions which they lack in are probably backup LB/RB. I think he came just to observe the way we play and also observe Atleti's playing style. Makes sense.

    Ivan Rakitić

    A world class goal that was. Yes, the pass from Messi was magic, but that finish was fantastic.

    Pep Guardiola

    No way he was doing scouting. A big problem with Bayern is that they have way too many world class players for each position. Finding their best first 11 is a huge discussion topic in many Bayern boards.

    Lliga: (El Clasico) FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 2-1

    We need one of Suarez/Neymar on form or we won't win this match. Actually we still can if Messi plays like 11/12 messi, but I bet RM will put at least 2 defenders on him at all times.

    CL: Barca - Man City 1-0 (3-1 agg.)

    I really think during the halftime talk, Lucho told the players to take their foot off the pedal. The 2nd half looked like a practice match to me. It looked worrying but I'm guessing the players and the staff were confident enough that they were going to go through. It could have been an...
