Not true, the guy in my avatar managed it last season. In the CL? Swedish commentator said they had 96 consecutive games or something like that with over 50 % possession in the CL Meant CL

We have dinosaurs as managers and dinosaurs controlling clubs. The dinosaurs have negative views on football and there is no long-term thinking because teams lose their key-players every other month. Would say you are being a tad harsh though as I wouldn't say it comes even close to football league quality though, as the Brazilian league is much much better in every aspects. I think there's quite a few PL teams that would have in the Brazilian league, because what you are describing (which I agree about) is the same for the bottom half of the PL with the few exceptions. Also, slow build-up for me is the biggest problem in football nowadays. Except the top teams in Europe teams seem unable to build-up play without reverting to long-balls. Didn't see the game tonight but both Sao Paulo and Cruzeiro are used to playing good football. Cruzeiro lost their three key players while I have no idea why Sao Paulo didn't play well.

Wanna know worst part about this all? This tie ain't fucking over. I've seen these Germans do stuff that no other team can. Don't think it will happen, but wouldn't be a massive shock if they beat them 5-0 at home.

Boateng man, that shit is never getting old.

Barcelona with first time since 2006 with less than 50% of possession. 3-0 anyways

Look at this guy. In a f***ing Newcastle forum. Right? VI stays driving to the ghetto to eat his opulent f***ing lunches. Opulent. f*** off. Well what word would you use Mr five languages? f*** you too. Actually great word. Should've added an o so VI would understand it. Opulento.

Only because they kept missing chances tbf. True. Dani was fantastic once again. Can't believe how much he has upped his performances this spring. Amazing what the dangled carrott of a new contract does Suarez tonight though, can't decide if he had a good performance or below apr. Was everywhere but his ball touch was so bad at times. More inconsistent first touch is hard to find, either magic or sunday league. If this makes sense i thought he was ok but made some bad decisions but not necessarily a bad performance Doesn't Look at this guy. In a f***ing Newcastle forum. Right?

It's just not possible man, fair enough Messi does that great, but he does that every game. Fucking Boateng fell stone hard. It's like he was shot ffs.

Fuck contest. We've come to the conclusion here that players are the best of their respective generation. Messi pisses on everyone he has ever played with or against which is all he could do. Will be at least another 20 years before we see another one like him.

I think treating Boateng's broken ankles, torn anus and bruised heart is more of a pressing concern tbh. Boateng was so weak there though. I mean you can't defend like that.

Messi is so much fucking better than Cristiano Ronaldo. Fuck off Froggy.

Messi won this. Barcelona were better, but was still a game until that little Argentinian wizard scored two out of nothing.

This fucking ref.

Neuer is some fucking shit.

Ramos has more ability on the ball. He's played there a fair few times. Scored a good amount of goals in that position towards the end of last season too. Ramos is horrible in the middle. For the same reason Luiz is, neither of them have no idea where they are supposed to be. Out of position all the time. Luiz is fine as long as you pair him with a real DM who will sit responsibly and let him run around wildly for 90 minutes. Better than Ramos, imo, anyway. Fine result for Madrid. They've gone into a charged atmosphere against a top side and emerged with a situation where a simple 1-0 victory sends them to a final. Couldn't you say the same with Ramos though? Did you watch the game tonight? Ramos couldn't keep the ball to save his life. Get him back at CB and get Varane to the bench. I've only seen that Brazilian CM lad play once for Madrid... and even then i'm sure it was a substitute. Yes I was talking in general sense, tbf Ramos doesn't usually give the ball away that much either. I don't think either of them are very good in midfield. David has something about himself in midfield which I find makes him better in the middle than Ramos. I've been shocked by how badly Ramos has done in the middle, his passing ability is terrible and he can't position himself at all. Only reason Ancelotti is playing him is that he becomes a threat from crosses when he attacks from deep. Lucas Silva and Illarra are better than Ramos. James is the man. And yeah Mole agree about Morata, was really impressed by him last night.

Don't agree but fair enough. Vidal was fucking everywhere tonight. What a player!

Carvajal

Our Copa America team has player from Al Ahli and some Chinese team and Robinho. :lol: Dunga will probably win it anyways and then win everything until the World Cup where we'll fail once again.
