    Xavi is a genius.

    Messi gets the plaudits but Xavi pulls all the strings.

    Amazing player.

    He is easily the worst commentator I've ever heard. Unbelievably thick geordie accent and non-sense phrases. "Guti as advertised, put it on an alter". WTF?

    Agreed, guess money can't buy victory:)
    It does if you spend it right and leave the manager do his job. See Chelsea 2003-2010.

    Haha. True but they've come damn close to winning it. A penalty kick away. Plus two very dubious semi final exits (vs Barcelona and vs Liverpool).

    I swear this commentating is f*cking locked. Geordie accent, but keeps ending his sentance with "maaaaaan"

    Second half Real have failed to maintain the pressure of the first half and have given Barca more space and time on the ball.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,048 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    He's trying to be like Sid Waddell, but failing miserably.

    Hard to believe a club like Madrid & all the money they have spent still have to play a right back at left back. Shockin stuff. Arbe has to keep turnin in on his right foot

    Looks like they didnt spend enough . . Clubs of Europe, watch your star players and prepare for Madrid 2011 . . 400mil may get them to the quarters of the champions league .:eek: .

    By no means the best Clásico you are ever going to see but overall I was pleased with Barca's performance. Real never really put them under any pressure and I think Peps odd lineup had everyone scrathching their heads. Xavi's two assists were class - what a player. Never doubted Barca would lose this game and can see them going on to maintain their la liga crown. A mention for Pique also who had the better of Ronaldo all night especially in the first half.



  • Registered Users Posts: 903 ✭✭✭bernardo mac


    Nama should assess the Real value!:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,735 ✭✭✭Vincent Vega


    No guard of honour from Real?
    thats a shame...:rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,005 ✭✭✭CorkMan


    I think Real should sign Rooney for around the £60-£80 mill mark, Vidic for around £20-£30 mill and a world class anchor man, someone who can pass good yet tackle hard, a mix of Pirlo and Essien.

    They have the funds, dunno why net.

    (Also, SAF could replace Pellegrini, I'd love to hear "El Hairdryer en Espanol" :D)


    EDIT: Just saw the Eto'o vid, Cabron means EFF YOU in Spanish BTW


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭Davaeo09


    I miss Sammy's attitude :mad: (the above video)

    Am I the only one that thinks there's some thing fishy about some of the referring decisions regarding Real? Scoff at me if you like cause for all I know it might be just that I am biased for Barca, i'd love to hear a true neutrals opinion :pac:

    the ref was fine. couple of poor decisions went against both sides.

    I'm intrigued, why do you think United would let Rooney go for less than Ronaldo's fee? And why would Vidic be sold for so little?

    Who do you think fills the requirements of someone as good at passing as Pirlo, and as good a tackler as Essien?

    And, SAF as Real manager?:pac::D:pac::D:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,320 ✭✭✭v3ttel


    Never seen that Eto'o video before, did he get away with it?

    I remember there being a controversy/apology/fine about it, I don't know if it was league or club-enforced though.

    Shame Messi didn't take his late chances for more humiliation, but I'll let him away with it.

    Good week so far. Barca win, Utd out, Liverpool win, Rovers win, Barca win.:cool:

    Cos 80 mill is astronomical, and no player is worth more than that. I heard Vidic is supposed to be unhappy?

    for the midfielder, just someone who has a sound passing game, alright, no Pirlos, but can pass a bit and tackle too. SAF was a joke :P

    No player is worth 80m in truth, that kind of fee is obscene.
