    10 - Lionel Messi - v1

    The United Nations Fund for Children (UNICEF) announced in Geneva that the FC Barcelona player Lionel Messi has agreed to be one of its ambassadors of goodwill. " (La Vanguardia) Just another reason to admire him off the pitch as much as I do on the pitch.

    Bojan Krkić

    :lol: It's always good to have wishes! If all of these come to pass I will be asking you for some lottery numbers. We are agreed though, Bojan needs to stay at Barca and play.

    Daniel Alves

    I noticed he was verbally reprimanded instead of booked for the diving. Don't get me started on the referee though.... On a positive note, I read this over on AS. However, Alves has encouraged his colleagues to "rise above all that because football is a mental issue, if you are strong you get...

    Daniel Alves

    One of the commentators at ESPN was talking about his distribution being poor and the fact that he rarely looks up before crossing one in the box. It wasn't until they mentioned every time it happened that I realized how frequently it was happening. That and the fact there wasn't a player there...

    Gabriel Milito

    Perhaps it's because they are the same person? lol j/k

    5 - Carles Puyol

    I hated very much to see an own goal from Puyol. Only for the fact that he gives his all every game and sacrifices his body a lot of the time to do it. He has great spirit and shows respect to everyone on the pitch. :wub:

    Thierry Henry

    Jose Manuel Pinto

    I saw the video at the official site and was :amazed: It was so epic the way that played out. More so because he actually saved it. Reminded me of Babe Ruth pointing his bat and indicating it was going out of the park. Moments like those are wonderful to relive.

    Ángel Di María

    I heard on an interview several months ago that Dunga is retiring after the WC this year regardless of who wins. Has anyone else heard this?

    That is hilarious! :lol:

    Gerard Piqué

    Despite the timing, it's never a good idea to get in the ref's face. Nothing good ever comes of it. I wonder if the ref would have given the 2nd yellow card if not for the Barca players in his face demanding it. Spite, perhaps? Strangely enough I thought the ref was doing a good job until...

    Thierry Henry

    You'd think he would have made a better accounting of himself being a professional athlete and all. The ropes did him in.... ;)

    Bojan Krkić

    Pep in regards to Pedro and Bojan.... "I have given both less minutes than they deserve. They work and are critical, and we must congratulate them." At least he has acknowledged the fact that they do deserve more minutes. One can hope we will see Bojan more often and for longer spells on the...

    Daniel Alves

    Any word on Dani's injury? I was surprised to see Xavi made it in the lineup when it seemed Dani was the one progressing so much faster. :alves: He was sorely missed today.

    Alexander Hleb

    :lol: He would put in a great performance against Barca, just out of spite I think.

    Injuries and suspensions

    I wondered at his injury before the Racing game and thought perhaps it was an excuse to just rest him and give Thierry and opportunity to play. Especially since Thierry was the topic of choice in the media at the time, it would remedy a couple of situations to play him and rest Ibra. Apparently...
