    Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

    BPL is the best marketed league in the world. Plus the early starts BPL matches makes it a hell of a lot easier to follow their matches in Asia than it is for other leagues Even when Spain and Italy were clearly a vastly superior league, I don't quite remember having to hear or read endlessly...

    Andrés Iniesta

    Xavi is just as good as Iniesta and probably the most important reason for Spain's success. I know Iniesta was absolutely amazing today but let's not get a little too ahead of ourselves.

    Andrés Iniesta

    Iniesta has been productive on the wings this but playing in a more central midfield role is where he is most effective . That's where i'd like to see him play more often.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v2

    I don't revile in watching idiocy either, I do like it a little bit though when such 'idiocy' loses.

    Adriano Correia Claro

    I remember when he had the good run of games early on in the season and a lot of people in here were going overboard and that how Adriano should feaure and start more, when I tried to calm things down and doubted his defensive ability, I was criticized. It's amazing what passes for defending...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v2

    Casillas has no class either . I remember after the Copa del rey ties last year after Madrid lost when he told the ref that he should now go and party with the Barca players. He's made a few other comments as well that were denigrating. The problem that Madrid press and fans have with Mourinho...

    Argentina

    It also helped that Sweden were so poor and could hardly string any passes together. Not enough pressure was put on Argentina to disrupt their rhythm.

    Alexis Sanchez

    Teams also don't defend Argentina as they do Barcelona, there is more space to operate as teams don't park the bus as they have considerably less respect for Argentina than they have for Barca.

    Alexis Sanchez

    There are very, very few players that are as overrated as Aguero is on this forum. It's amazing how many in here think he's the magical solution for Barca when he's been largely dissapointing for City. Aguero definitely has talent and skill but some ppl just need to calm down when it comes to him.

    Daniel Alves

    He seemed to do pretty well against ronaldo in the copa del rey. The guy is not at his absolute best but he's much better than anybody we've got at the moment. And much better than what most other teams have to offer at that position.

    Adriano Correia Claro

    There were actually people here who want him to start ahead of Dani Alves :lol: There is a reason why he has not been a starter at Barca during his time at the club. He has way too many holes defensively which the opposition can exploit and give them confidence. Alves has been a phenominal...

    Neymar - v2

    One would think that the Brazilians who are generally regarded as being better technically than the English and better at passing and possession would actually enjoy playing on the large Wembley pitch. That was really not the case. The better players actually enjoy playing on larger pitches...

    NFL

    I've just found that most people outside of the United States just don't seem to have even a basic understanding of this sport. I've read a lot of ignorant responses from Americans regarding European football as well but I just seem to be in the minority who is a big fan of both sports and...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    The entire crux of your original post was to downplay Cesc's dissapointing performances in recent tough games by placing considerable blame on Iniesta and his positioning by insisting that ''Cesc is being pushed out of his position by Iniesta'' (your exact words) when in fact it has been the...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    The main reason why we've struggled in recent games is not because of fatigue, it's just that we haven't dealt well with our opponent's pressing who have been able to knock us out of our rhythm. Even Malaga in the first half of the Copa Del Rey tie (second leg) were able to trouble us with their...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    This is about as pure a horse shit as anything I've read in this forum. I can understand trying to defend a player but there's no need to pull things out of the air. Anyone who isn't completely blind can see that Iniesta has been largely playing on the LW so that Cesc can play in a position he...

    14 - Javier Mascherano

    Arrogance has a lot to do with as it seems that the club wants to somehow re-create the CB position. I remember when Mascherano was introduced by Barca, he was presented as a guy with versatility who could play different positions, it wasn't out of the blue then that he was playing at CB. Even...

    14 - Javier Mascherano

    He's just been being put under more pressure this season and is getting exposed a lot more. To have a short, former DM who lacks a physical prescence was never going to be a long-term solution at CB and some of us were saying that last season as well. I don't mind him as a CB against lesser...

    NFL

    The half time show is mostly to generate interest internationally so that people who don't watch this sport can maybe get interested and it seems like it works as you can see from some of the replies in this forum from people who seem to have no clue about the sport or are watching it for the...

    NFL

    The Niners are supposed to be one of the best defensive teams in the league but they didn\t play like it in these last few games, giving up about 30 pts per game in the post-season and their secondary gave up some big plays. That secondary has been exposed once they can't get any pressure...
