Yeah its such a shit time to face Messi. Here is to hoping he gets an injury and misses the game.

The idiots have replaced one cup guy for another cup guy. Why? because he couldn't win the league.

I loved Gattuso. He was very aggressive but didnt just foul. I remember him handling Ronaldo in the game Kaka humiliated Vidic and Ferdinand.

No worries man its all good. :tup:

The advances in sport science have benefitted attackers more than defenders yes. It improved athletism above everything else. Things like speed, stamina, acceleration and so on which are basically attacking attributes. As you said, the rules have been slowly altered to favor attackers in the...

It does. Tevez can't do what they do with the luxury goals and its not down to Juventus being worse than Barcelona. I understand that scoring a 5th goal is easier than scoring the first goal. But scoring a 5th goal is not easy and thats why very good players like Tevez can only do it once or...

Then you should do the same for every player who doesn't score the first or second goal in the match. Or you can just look at how many games they scored in rather than how many goals they scored in general. I am pretty sure they'd still be from another planet compared to all the strikers from...

Again if it was so easy to score hatricks in such games, then why haven't anyone else been able to do the same? Who shows the alleged 'respect'? These very same players have amazing stats in the CL too where there are no such games, how would you explain that away? The DelPieros, Henrys Ronaldos...

You do know why Hard Tackles are punished with red cards. Because they cause injuries. A defender's job is to get the ball not the player. Any ape can just keep tackling his opponent without getting the ball. If you get the player then it is a foul. If you intentionally got the player to stop...

What you are arguing for is the joke. They are two teams playing in the same league. This is not even a friendly game. There is no reason why Madrid and Barca should not show case their weapons. Your club becomes more feared, your fans are entertained and your players express their full...

Doping really :D So its not that our understanding of the body and our ability to optimize it have improved? Its not that the pitch is better and the shoes are better and the training and healing methods are better? Also whats wrong with humiliating your opponents? If you can do it then you...

Take away 25% of their goals and they will still be above every other player. You are putting it as if its a negative. These are players that can play 90 minutes every match all season and score almost every game. This is insane consistency. They don't rest they don't rotate they always play and...

Messi's passing was sublime in this match though.

Yes there will be games where he doesn't score and if iirc barca did come out on top across both legs. You can single out any match where he didnt score and say "whoever pwnt his ass during that game". It has to be something consistent and across many matches like Chiellini and Ibra for it to...

One man can only do so much. Bare in mind this was not Messi on his best form but rather Messi coming off the back of one of his worst seasons. The rest (of the attacking players) have failed him they contributed nothing. Aguero and co were performing scandalously. Argentina's campaign was...

The guy scored almost all his team's goals and those he didn't score he assisted. As a striker he did what could be asked of him and more. The one's who didnt do shit however were the rest of the strikers like Higuain, Lavezzi, Aguero and Palacio. Messi was the entirety of Argentina's attack...

The best coach in the world it has to be said.

Torres scored again :lol:

I dont understand how he is not punished for such dives afterwards. I remember when Krasic dived he got banned for 3 games afterwards. When Adriano punched someone, they used video evidence and banned him for it. Even the Suarez bite on Chiellini was punished on video evidence. What are the...
