That was one crazy game.

Credit to la Liga this season. Every team is attacking no matter what the score is, with no sense of defending to keep the score! It's a weak point in my opinion as it may cause a reverse in the final result because of a come back from the other team but for us viewers, we just enjoy the goals!

If I was a Real fan I sure would have coughed my heart out for the 2 ball-hits-the-post opportunities.

Rather sad to see Real in such a mess. I feel sorry for Iker, a few of the others, bit mostly Raúl.
Indeed. Real Madrid is much more likable than Barcelona.

and with Grosso and Zmabro on the flanks...looks like a helluva backline to me
Zambrotta is also a joke nowadays. I was never that impressed with Grosso either, he would be ripped apart by quality wingers.

No they are not. They got VDV. I am so relieved that he didn't come to Juve. I feel sorry for Higuain and Casillas. but then again Casillas doing bad means Buffon is the undisputed best.

Barca are the team to beat, that's the only reason why are may be less likable.

Zambrotta is also a joke nowadays. I was never that impressed with Grosso either, he would be ripped apart by quality wingers.
It's Grosso going forward that I like. Same with Zhirkov and the late A.Puerta.

Zambro has been pretty good for Milan this season, and well there is no other Italian LB better than Grosso really...if that backline was good enough to win a WC, I think it is good enough to contain anyone

Well, that is my peronal preference. I prefer Real Madrid, much more glorious team throughout their rich history and the most succesfull club in the wrold. Barca have nothing on them. Even though they play attractive football, like JCK says they promote themself in a disgustng manner. ( why is Barcelona more than a club?? ) Their fans are dislikable too. Barcelona until the 90's was pretty much a side in the shadow of other great Europen clubs (among them Real Madrid). And the way they choke is amusing.

It's Grosso going forward that I like. Same with Zhirkov and the late A.Puerta.
No arguments there. Grosso does bomb his flank very good, despite looking clumsy at times. Puerta was more of a winger, I think. Zhirkov is unknown quality. He impressed during the tournament but is that enough to judge?? Until the EURO nobody was even mentioning him, of course that doesn't mean he wasn't playing good. Russian league is not very popular in Europe, hence a lot of people don't get too much chances to see Russian teams in action. I must admit though, Russia has produced some very good players in the recent time that are worth considering buying.v Their league is competitive, too.

Zambrotta has NOT been pretty good for AC Milan this season, in fact more often he was poor than good. He basically carried his form from Barcelona to AC Milan. If he would be performing like this at Juve, then I can say I am glad we sold him. Is Juventus the team that made him play like a great player?? Is he mentally destroyed after our relegation and forced transfer to Barclona?? Or is he just ageing?? Who knows, but he is not the same player he was with us.

P.S. Why does it have to be an Italian LB?? Can he be Italien?? :D

Why did you call them mercenaries?
Which teams these days are not full of traveling salesmen?
Are Raúl and Iker not just as loyal as DP?
Do we really (no pun intended) want teams of glamour boys?
Does not Raúl deserve his place in the side?
Have you ever seen Di Stefeno?
1-:money: :money: :money: :money: :money:
2-no,sissoko only ever wanted to play for Juventus:shifty:
3-Raul has been teh main reason behind a lot of real glories but more often than not he has been the main catalyst behind the demise of most of their coaches
3-you mean guys who have fan boy bases like the zlatanites? no thanks
4-yes, but only because everyone else is injured. his attitude would ahve seen him out of Juve years ago
5-along with Puskas in the greatest team EVER,how i wish i was old enough to have seen them play

Pretty odd mind games, if that is what he is trying.

It's one thing to claim underdog status, it is quite another to basically say you have no chance against your rivals.

Schuster fired.


Most papers saying that Juande Ramos will be brought in. This was inevitable after Schusters post match comments. I think Juande is the right man for them.

tbh i thought he would have been sacked after his comments after the Getafe game when he was asked if the defeat hurt and he said no, then took the next day off when the players were training. he was a dead man walking and did not really give a fuck
