I'm 50 % moron if you didn't know :D


But to be fair to Wenger, Cristiano didn't seem like the player he is now back at sporting. Not a lot of product to his game and an ability to get lost in a phonebooth on account of his dribbling antics. Imagine Cristiano not scoring and you can see problems in the context of a squad. Zlatan has been the same players since 17 at ajax. Maybe even better back then. And with Baggio you had a fully developed visionairy playmaker- that could put in a few aswell at about the same age. Just saying.

I'm not the biggest City fan in the world, but I'm so bored of Barca and how they constantly get lauded with greatest team in the world and every commentator and pundit wanks furiously over them. Would like to see them go out tbh.

YOU R WRONG SORRY

nah fair play though i can understand that.

though i feel if anything Barca/ messi have a point to prove this year, with messi's mortal form, and barca not dominating la liga/ mans like mourniho saying they are the worst in years and would like to see them steam roll through city with some brilliant football

Barca = one of the world's greatest clubs
Man City = I've had wanks with more class than those stnuc

I hope Barca do city then get knocked out in the next round. Won't be too bothered when we get beat by Bayern, league and cup are more important this season

I'd get more enjoyment getting Barcelona stuffed over by an English team (any English team with the exception of Portsmouth) than I would seeing Barca take them apart.

English or not, Man City are the epitome of the bloated, cash-driven excess that plagues European football nowadays, fuck those guys every time

To cheer City is to cheer a disgusting virus that is ruining football.

Barca earn't their money from being one of the best for half a century they deserve their success.

IMO

looking at City making a mockery of FFP with their self-injected revenues makes me sick

Not quite if you want to be pedantic but with the cheating trinity of Pedro, Busquets and Alves in the team I will never want them to wim

If UEFA have even tiny balls then PSG and City will not be in next season's champs league. Somehow I suspect they will be

fair point, that's La Liga's problem rather than Barca's though IMO. You don't regulate stuff properly, people will do whatever it takes to win. Don't hate the player hate the game and all that.

Besides, Jovetic has now spent exactly 5.67% of his time on the pitch this season in mid air following a contact-less dive

And it will continue until La Liga do something about the retarded revenue sharing for TV money;

Busquets has had one episode where he dived and peeped out of his hands.
Since then he has been the best defensive midfielder in the world without rough tackling, stomping or whatever usually comes with that territory. Like Carrick only much better and not as physical. It's only because he is in Barcelona that he gets painted that way, same with Pedro.

Man city is in no way worse than Chelsea.
City are the main reason why the league is developing as quickly as it is.
The 'monopoly' that united had for 20 years, wouldn't have been broken by a club like Arsenal that only decided to wage out on a player like Ozil in the post Ferguson climate. And there's reason to believe Chelsea wouldn't have gone all in on Mourinho and given him the terms he has agreed on if it wasn't for City and their spending. City has a good coach, sound planning and a way they want to play that isn't entirely depending on beating smaller clubs with a low goal difference or ruining big games.

Barca was looking almost as good as a few years ago playing rayo in the weekend btw. It is going to be a good match i reckon.
