I agree with Wolfe. OKC's halfcout offense is still suspect and they did take a step backward with Harden leaving. In the playoffs, there is going to be too much pressure on both Durant and Westbrook to carry this team...... Even if one of them struggles in a game, then they're going to going to...

Liked the Blues-Red Wings game....although the game was ruined in the end by a bad call. I haven't watched hockey for long but one of the players that I admire is Datsyuk. I've always admired the creative players. Saw the Rangers-Penguins game and Crosby was pretty ordinary, he hasn't had a...

I'm rooting for the Ravens. Their defense did well against Brady and Peyton so I think they can confuse CK as well but I know the Niners are a more power-running team. Should be a great game.

There's no need to be that harsh........he was well marked like Messi throughout the game, there was very little space for him to exploit.

There is a difference between a team parking the bus and constricting the middle. The two are not the same thing. Watching this game again, it's become even more apparent how ineffective he was in this game and his lack of control and technique under pressure. What is even more annoying is the...

I agree, credit needs to be given where it's due although i knew this was a great signing for Madrid from his early performances already. He's quick on his feet and yet is physical and good in the air as well. He's like a quicker version of Pique. What I like about him and what differentiates...

Like I said before, these guys are desperate for a positive story after that entire 'Barca's era is over' thing didn't work out.

This was the best match that he has played in a long, long time . I was really worried after he picked up the yellow card so early in the match and we all know the shenanigans of the Madrid players but Pique hardly put a foot wrong after that. Also, what a difference does it make when you're...

I've noticed that too in recent games which is really surprising as the Old Trafford pitch has almost always been great. Is the fact that they're going to face Madrid in the CL have anything to do with the status of the pitch???

The idea that Varane had Messi in his pocket is pure delusion but I guess Madrid fans are desperate for positive stories this season, there was an entire wall of Madrid players that did the job to stop Messi, not one player.

People keep saying that we need to evolve and change. Yes, Barca needed to evolve and change against teams who were were parking the bus and giving us real trouble in penetration, Barca needed to initiate attacks quicker and be more direct however, Madrid do not park the bus. That is not how...

If he was ahead of Puyol than that was largely due to injuries and stupidity of the club which cost us against Chelsea and nearly cost us against Milan as well. And I watched every single game last season but you apparently haven't seen a proper defender.

We were playing with 10 men for much of that game with Marcelo and Ronaldo owning Adriano and countless defensive lapses at the back in the first half. We actually looked more dangerous in the second half of that game and were able to impose our will playing with 10 men than we did for much of...

Typical thuggish behaviour from him in this entire match and then trying to pat Messi on the cheek and then Arbeloa joining in. Just classless behaviour from a bunch of a degenerates.

He's a great player and he always seems to be able to provide crucial assists against us it seems. He's the only creative midfielder on their team who can create for others. Even more so than Ronaldo I feared Ozil going into this match because more than any other Madrid player that, he is the...

It's not surprising really. I remember when there was a thread asking which RM player you'd like to see at Barca and for me, Varane was at the top of the list , with Puyol getting in age I feel Varane would have formed a really good partnership with Pique.

Pedro is a much more proven goal-scorer and also in the Clasicos as well so he'd get my vote ahead of Cesc. If there is anybody that needs to be inserted in the Barca attack it's Villa who wouldn't have been as wasteful as either Pedro or Cesc but maybe the Barca coaches see something in...

Pedro is more dangerous because he is better at one-touch passing under pressure as has been proven in several Clasicos and is much quicker than Cesc which makes his runs more dangerous, his speed with the ball on his feet is more dangerous for defenders to handle and he's also a proven goal...

Cesc wasn't the one surrounded by 3 or 4 players everytime he made a run and even when Messi had to drop deep to get the ball he was alwasy surrounded by atleast 2 players. The reason Messi was ineffective was because our midfield was playing deeper than usual and failed to get a foothold in the...

'great passing'..... are you serious???? the amount of balls he lost under pressure particularly in the first half were numerous. This post, clearly shows your ridiculous bias.
