Barça's Transfers and Rumors
:lol: Look back at Xavi in the prime years: roaming up to the CF position, dropping back to the CB's to get the ball. He'd run everywhere on the pitch constantly turning and dominating the ball. He'd provide passing options everywhere. Busquets on the other hand is maybe 1/4 as mobile. He... -
Barça's Transfers and Rumors
That's a bit unfair. He's a fantastic prospect, but people are trying to prematurely turn him into something he's not. He's still learning and has to become more comfortable and authoritative in top flight football the way he is with the u19 or u21 teams controlling matches. He'll excel when he... -
Barça's Transfers and Rumors
:lol: The last time we played Busquets as CM, we lost 3-1 to Sociedad and were pinned back for a majority of the game. I don't think you even know what the 'Xavi role' is if you think Busquets can play in it. -
10 - Lionel Messi - v3
It's been too long since the days when people would look at Messi as if he were in an entirely different class from others. Now it's becoming easier and easier for commentators and pundits alike to say "Ronaldo is the best player in the world". I pray that he picks himself up for this WC and for... -
Marquinhos
Conflicted opinion on this, but I do hope the price is that low. If the kid comes, he better bulk up fast.- DonAndres

Barça's Transfers and Rumors
The thing is that we seem in the best position to buy Benatia as well. His agent was reported to be in Barcelona, he mentioned us first in his "big clubs" list, it was reported that his relative said he'd pick Barca, and the news about other clubs going for him doesn't really go farther than... -
Barça's Transfers and Rumors
Barcelona prefer PSG centre back Marquinhos (20) to Roma centre back Mehdi Benatia (27) because of age and better passing game. [md] No no no no no no no no Lucho no u23 fetish pls we need Benatia. -
Barça's Transfers and Rumors
Zubi man get your priorities straight. Pique's too good looking to play alongside a kid with hepatitis and braces, where are the rumors for Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome? -

La Liga 2013/2014
It's very unbelievable considering their finances and how small of a club they are (Liga Adelante's Atletico? :p). This presents a good chance for teams like Athletic and Real Sociedad to loan a few youth players out as Eibar desperately need squad depth to compete and stay up. -
Gerard Deulofeu
Well it's not that he doesn't have ability. It's that for a young player from as talent-stacked a country as Spain, any NT callup is a reward of hard work and a string of impressive performances. At Everton, he didn't progress and didn't show his best so I'm pleasantly surprised Del Bosque still...- DonAndres

Gerard Deulofeu
Del Bosque (coach ESP): "We believe in Deulofeu. He had a great season at Everton. If someone gets injured, he could go to Brazil." :lol: Weird how Del Bosque has that big a Deulo fetish. He was willing to call him up back when he was with the B team as well but barely decided against it. I...- DonAndres

Diego Simeone
Lel you guys also said that last season when Atletico kept up in the title race until March and won the CDR. Back then, "going that far was all they could hope to achieve" especially with the loss of Falcao. This season, Cholo has carried them even further. The thing I respect most is another...- DonAndres

10 - Lionel Messi - v3
Normally, WC>CL for favoritism. However, the fact that it's La Decima might make a difference. If Messi doesn't win but does astoundingly well, it'd require him to perform supernaturally for the first part of 14/15 AND for Ronaldo to be meh. -
Champions League 2013/2014
Surprised you haven't said that the "difference between the two sides was Karim Benzema". -
Atlético Madrid
Everyone's biggest beef is with Real Madrid winning La Decima, but to me the bigger injustice is Atletico's heartbreaking defeat. Each and every one of their players ran their lungs out (I'm estimating about an average of 15-16km) and towards the end about 6-7 were nursing debilitating injuries...- DonAndres

Champions League 2013/2014
No way in hell. They ran to the very end, not even Olympic athletes could've held out that long at the end. We would've curled over after 60 minutes this season. -
Champions League 2013/2014
:cry: How could this happen to Simeone and his men.... They ran their legs out, more than half of them nursing injuries towards the end. -
Champions League 2013/2014
This is just not fair at all.... Poor Atletico, poor Simeone.
