La Liga - Week 3

Mgoraf

WOw off the bar!

Tamudo broke my heart a number of times against Barcelona with Espanyol, it'd be lovely for him to repay me by breaking Madridista hearts tonight with Sociedad! Can't see Real not winning though.

Real look Real poor. Not a team yet. Agree with the Ronaldo comment. He's a big baby

There's artistic temperament, then there's acting like a brat, Ronaldo just takes it to new heights.

Goal in this for either side, most likely socidad.

gimmick

I can see him being sent off tonight. Looks very frustrated.

Great game this.

Raskolnikov

I am disgusted. Was just about to say how many shots as Ronaldo wasted too!

I dunno, they haven't had that many chances. Even their goal took a real piece of class.

Yeah, but they should've been at least 1 up. I've not seen much of Sociedad but they seem to have trouble converting chances on tonight's evidence.

EDIT: Jaysis, timing what? At least I was right in that Madrid didn't exactly 'deserve' it.

gimmick

Wasn't a fúcking free in the first place.

Bukman13

Pepe's goal tbh.

redout

Lucky deflection to be honest - not a hope the keeper was getting to that.

IvySlayer

Never a free in the first place.

Liam O

Cruel on Sociedad but they are playing one of the most talent ridden teams in the world and Madrid don't need many chances to score and big teams always seem to get the slices of luck.

Peyton Manning

Haters gonna hate

Raskolnikov

Holy crap, nearly 2-2 out of nothing.

Mgoraf

LOL Jose!

Raskolnikov

Mourinho going ape****. Sergio Ramos is just a disaster waiting to happen.

IvySlayer

Looked like he said '****ing spa'

Mars Bar

Jesus, Mourinho is a scary man when he gets going.

Mgoraf

Higuain should have finished it off there.

Raskolnikov

Great finish.

Heh United fans still liking a player who demanded to leave them, funny bunch.

Sociedad were too wasteful in the first half - a better side could have had 3 clear goals now they are paying the price.

Same with Liverpool fans and Steven Gerrard I suppose but let's not drag the thread OT

Mgoraf

Very good game. Unlucky Sociedad, battled very very well.

Raskolnikov

I still don't know whether Mourinho is the luckiest, or greatest manager alive.

LuckyLloyd

Right result. Real march towards their inevitable triumph at season's end.

Did well at the club, won us a CL, was the best in the world at one stage. We got a world record fee for him that won't be eclipsed for a long time. I see no reason to be bitter. I love the man. It's man love, you wouldn't understand.

G'wan Madrid!!!

Peyton Manning

Get in, top of the league! Long may it last. Good thing Barcelona can't overtake them tomorrow either. Also good to see the World Cup Winner © Casillas has only conceded one goal so far. Valencia have a tricky tie against Hercules, could overtake Madrid but luckily we've seen others make a balls of that!

eZe^

Some game, unbelievable intensity and pace. Madrid were fairly sh*t to be honest, if Jose expects to be able to hold onto a lead that way he'll be in for a fairly big shock as the season goes on. They have the players to play a possession orientated defensive game, like Barca, imo the team doesn't have the ability to defend like Chelsea or Inter did under Jose.

No he's not. No need to resort to personal abuse. :rolleyes:

Really hope Atletico make a title push this season. I used to love Barca about the time Ronaldinho was in full flow but a lot of their antics over the past few seasons have turned me off them and I've never really liked Real but do like some of the players they have playing for them now.

So basically started looking out for Atletico in the last 1 or 2 seasons as I like their attacking football and Forlan and Aguero are 2 of my favourite non-United players. Was a bit annoyed when Maxi joined Liverpool as I always had a soft spot for him.

Some impressive trolling here again.

You're setting yourself up for disappointment mate, Atletico are the most erratic team in La Liga, they'll look like world beaters one week and then get spanked by relegation fodder the next. It's always always always the same, no way will they mount a serious title challenge imo.

Also, seems Atletico geniuses for letting go of Maxi, he has gone to absolute sh*t, he was quality for Atletico though.

Sorry but any player who demands a transfer from his club should not be held in high esteem by that clubs fans regardless of what he did, fact is he should still be there.

Altho its is united and seeing as tho Keane did it must be accepted when your best players decide they want to leave.

madness tbh

I don't care one toss what anyone does outside of performances on the pitch. That's it. Ronaldo was an impeccable performer for United, that's all I look for. He gave us a good chunk of his career, he's more than welcome to do what he wants.

That, and he's just so sexy.

He likes you too Archi. Grrr

In my dreams.

If I were married, I would have no problem letting that man shag my wife. I'd just try and make the experience as enjoyable as possible for him, you know, like waiting outside with a glass of milk and a sandwich for him when he's done, maybe singing some Barry White or Luther Van Dross while he does it.

You'd be like that guy in Semi-Pro who jerks off watching Woody Harrelson shag his wife.

Hah, I saw a quoted version of this post first on the page after it was originally posted and my first thought was that, "Yes, Mourinho is yummy alright".

I am making tracks for the Calderon - hope Barca end this awful run.

Got some decent seats so will post up a few pics afterwards.

Visca Barça!

Barcelona: Valdes - Alves Pique Puyol Maxwell - Xavi Busquets Iniesta - Pedro Messi Villa

De Gea, Ujfalusi, Godin, Perea, Dominguez, Reyes, Assuncao, RaulGarcia, Simao, Forlan, Aguero.

IvySlayer

Totally forgot about the Athletico - Barcelona match :pac:

Utd - Liverpool was a cracker, althought my nails are gone, hopefully this better, especially since I'm a neutral.
