I haven't read the past 3 pages (so hard keeping up with the forum nowadays), but just wanted to say on Maradona's cast in '86. Ppl often don't like to say it, but that team was basically an antifutbolteam....it was based on defending with 7 players and humping the ball forward, expecting...

bundesliga is good but is certainly not better defensively than any of the top 3 leagues.

:D unfortunately, i'm useless at photoshop, otherwise i'd change it a bit

Just One Game, people!!! Though hopefully the Abidal-bashers will be quiet for a couple weeks now.

well pep said he wanted a big said, so txiki went out and signed all these wonderful players to give depth just in case someone gets injured (since that always happens).... ....at least i think that's what happened this summer :unsure:

Ibra was and is an asshole. But now he's our asshole, so nobody fucks with it

CR/ManU/RM fan... :gasp: was Bolt that thierry14henry guy :hmmm:. that would make me very sad...

He looked great tonight...my only concern is that defending for Barça is a different matter. You're usually defending fast counter-attacks in a 3-on-3 situation (or something similar), not defending as past of a ten man wall against a team that's building pressure against you. I'm hoping he can...

Guddy wasn't always this bad...he was good at Chelsea and fairly useful in his first year under Rijkaard.

come on...you know goals conceded has way more to do with the defence than the keeper. in terms of key saves i remember valdes more than VDS....and i'm sure it's not my bias talking :whistle2:

i'll stick with the traditional Dima. I believe both Marquez & Puyol are out of contract next summer, right? If so, wouldn't be surprised to see at least one leave.

Must.Resist.Messi.Dinho.Debate......pointless...

i think we're the only seeded spanish team....there's gonna be a "group of death" somewhere

Eto's value obviously wasn't zero, but i don't know who these mythical clubs are who were offering 20M for him. Part of the reason the "official" valuation is 20M is so as not to insult Eto and also not to insult Zlatan. I feel if we had held out all summer, some club prolly would come in at...

puyol could certainly leave for free if he wants to

not really...he joined at 17 and we turned him into a defender. There's no way in hell Rooney is a Man U product though

good to read. I did not think he was falling out with pep or anything. I just wonder if he's the type to stay on at the club forever, even if he's not playing as much, or if he'll move on elsewhere to finish his career. I know he will have Barcelona's interest at heart though

i wonder if it's just a money thing, or if it has anything to do with us looking to buy a starting-level CB...

you don't seem happy about it

quality :lol:
