    Luis Enrique

    Why are people comparing this current season with the last season when this current season has not even ended? Last year at this point in time the team had managed to qualify for the CdR final, they comfortably defeated City in the round of 16 in the CL and had obtained 60 points after 24...

    Lliga: Barca - Malaga 0-1

    No, still angry whenever I think about this game. Goddammit.

    I want Laporta to appoint this genius in the summer.

    Andrés Iniesta

    Iniesta is quite frankly a shadow of his former self. I think that he has regressed more than Xavi which says it all. It's a shame because our midfield is already our weakest point in the team (IMO) and a old Iniesta could have added so much to the team. Unfortunately it seems that we won't see...

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

    Say what you want but the team could have extended their 11-game winning steak, topped the league and kept the momentum going had they managed to win against Málaga of all teams at the Camp Nou! Now there is bound to be a bit of doubt involved. Questions are asked in the media, a slight unrest...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Are you discussing with me just for the sake of being annoying or actually to have a meaningful discussion? You are putting words in my mouth that I have never uttered. A senior spin doctor would have been impressed. Nobody is ignoring anything. I mentioned Suárez' wastefulness in front of...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Yes for obvious reasons as we are talking about two players that the club bought for a combined transfer fee of 200 million euros. You expect those players to step up more often when the main man has an off-day. Not only when this occurs a few times a season but in general. If you don't expect...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    In previous games Suárez could have stepped up by converting some of his many missed opportunities in front of goal into goals. Chances that Messi often created for him. I won't criticize Neymar much this season for not stepping up as he has had a very good l season so far. If that is the case...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Where did I write that? That's your own strange conclusion. What I am writing and have written on this topic is very clear and obvious for anyone that bothers to read it. You are now talking about whether Neymar or Suárez were good signings or not. This is irrelevant and I have not commented...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Then why do you seem to disagree with my conclusion? FCB struggles more when Messi has his rare off-day (s) than RM does whenever Ronaldo is absent or has his off-day (s). Why should it not be simple? The club bought Neymar and Suárez for a combined transfer fee of 200 million euros. Let me...

    Penal Madrid

    True. It's too early to predict anything with certainty but I think that we can conclude that as of now RM are favorites. To what extend we can always discuss. A lot will be decided by the CL I feel. RM are bound to slack a bit in the league like last year if they have the CL to look for...

    Luis Enrique

    I should have made it more obvious. I will use a smiley the next time. We are obviously all disappointed. Hard not to be. No need to apologize. I could eat some asado now though.:tata: In all seriousness then regardless of there being disagreements on whether Lucho is the right man, to what...

    Penal Madrid

    Not only that. Defeats at home against the likes of Celta and Málaga often prove fatal if the goal is to win the league. Especially in recent seasons were FCB and RM rarely drop any points at home or points at all for that matter. Anyway FCB were never favorites to win the league title this...

    Two times. Which was obviously banter but 3 users did not figure it out despite it being plain obvious.

    Luis Enrique

    First of all I am a passionate fan. Results like this one are always difficult to cope with for any committed fan this shortly after a defeat. If I was not passionate I would not be a socio or be debating here and on a leading Spanish FCB forum. I invest far too much time in a otherwise limited...

    Penal Madrid

    Not there yet mate but today's performance and result is hard to cope with. For now at least. I am a passionate fan. If I was not I would not be a socio or be debating here and on a leading Spanish FCB forum. I invest far too much time in a otherwise limited time schedule on FCB and football in...

    Penal Madrid

    In all seriousness then RM are obvious favorites and that was always the case this season. The team giving gifts away like Santa Claus on steroids is not helping that. Sure everything can still happen and I won't rule out anything. Just not getting my hopes too high. You broke my heart...

    Luis Enrique

    Look, the few tactical changes that he did after the embarrassing defeat at Anoeta were changes that most of us fans called for weeks prior to him finally "seeing the light". As stubborn as he is he even denies those few tactical changes. In his typical awkward fashion mind you. Once again...

    Luis Enrique

    This I won't blame Lucho for. When your opposition, in this case Málaga, are parking their Airbus A380 in front of their goal you have to make the pitch bigger. You do that mainly by stretching the field and creating two vertical lines on both flanks of the pitch. Regarding those 48 crosses...
