    that's a shame, it would have been a nice contest for him to debut in.

    Xavi Hernández

    Guti could have been one of the World's Finest with some consistency, but then I think such a capricious nature is a fundamental part of what makes Guti the player he is.

    Best CB Pair In The World?

    Piqué and Puyol Rio and Vidic Nesta and T. Silly probably in that order. not having Lucio and Samuel, they got away with countless fouls last year to help maintain their deep line, and got cut up 3 times in 10 minutes (post-Zlatan) at the Camp Nou.

    Eric Abidal

    Bilal is a MONSTAH. he seems to have really "gotten it" in terms of how we play.

    World's best Defender?

    to be fair, Samba is a hybrid Defender+Forward.

    Sergio Busquets

    as was the flick that preceded it. the boy is stone-cold world-class. I'd like to take a moment to raise a really fucking smug glass of awesomesauce with my man Adam (CuleAngles) - how right were we? :D

    FC Barcelona statistics

    well, he saved it. but there are generally two schools of thoughts for assists, one include rebounds, one doesn't. I'm inclined to side with the latter, but I can see the logic of the former. I mean if Messi doesn't shoot then Pedro doesn't score. but it wasn't a pass. I dunno.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v1

    the way he can redefine himself to fit the opposition is amazing. Espanyol didn't give him much in behind as they constantly pressed him when he had possession high up the pitch (ignore the horrid miss for a second, because Alves created that by robbing a defender) so he came deep to help...

    Pedro Rodriguez

    god he's awesome. while Villa has replaced (and upgraded) on Henry, Pedro has replaced Samu in our team. he's obviously not as good a striker as Samu, but for our system he is ridiculously effective. he works just as hard as Samu did, runs just as intelligently (and quickly) and finishes with...

    Sergio Busquets

    that flick and pass for the first goal... so fucking sexy.

    Ibrahim Afellay

    I think we can disregard his performances starting from when negotiations with him began, as his focus will have been split. like Smalling for Fulham last season. amazing first half, signs for United, shit second half. but now he's AT United, he looks the business.

    Best Manager of All Time?

    yeah and I appreciate all that, but a monkey could have won that first CL with those guys. well, maybe not a monkey, but certainly a very stupid human. now yes, Munoz did very well to slowly bring the Yé-Yé kids in as the original superstars faded away, before eventually letting the kids take...

    Best Manager of All Time?

    I'll say this, you're fucking consistent. :lol: Hogan, River, whatever... the things Sebes had Hidegkuti do were revolutionary and the basis for pretty much 90% of the greatest players in the world since then. Maradona, Zico, Baggio, Laudrup and Messi, to name but five examples.

    Best Manager of All Time?

    yeah but you're pre-conditioned to be madly in love with Herrera, regardless of what he does. :p and regarding Herrera having a more direct impact on the Western European game... you do realise Sebes invented the #10, right? :lol: but really you can't objectively state a case for one...

    Lionel Messi .v. Cristiano Ronaldo

    shut up, stab-a-mong! in your face, have-a-bomb! you stink, dapper-don! etc.

    Best Manager of All Time?

    it's not a straightforward answer. there are many categories to judge a manager by: Sebes, Herrera and Michels are the tactical forefathers of the modern game. Cruyff and Sacchi are disciples of the above, bringing their tactics into the modern age. Pep is their heir. Ferguson, Capello and...
