that match probably defined an era. people talk about the greatest teams of all time, but in my opinion this barcelona team are just on a completely different level to any other team that has existed.

Xavi had 110. Wonder if he had a Tiote-like completed %

Xavi's goal had a beautiful rhythm to it

Carvalho = Bramble in this comparison. Just need "Darren Bent" to score in injury time.

Un-be-fucking-liev-able

the passing in the last 5 minutes (especially) has been of the highest order possible. its just a privilege to have grown up watching this team.

leaving a wedding ring on the touchline

Words dont work anymore. Although when it comes to rape recovery, Real Madrid should learn from Sunderland

Phenomenal. Just....phenomenal

should've just been a yellow for carvalho

Put him in that Barcelona team and he makes them perfect. Aerial presence ftw!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Every time you watch this team play, make the most of it. You just never know when it'll end. They're simply mesmerising.

GET IN!!!!!

Greatest team in the world, best player in the world, most attractive team in the world vs Greatest manager in the world, most expensive transfer of all time, most glamorous name in world football I absolutely cannot wait. Love Mourinho, but C'MON BARCA!!!!!

"I am not a cricket match"

so difficult to predict. if mulumbu is as important for them as tiote is for us, then i think we'll win. however, they're a decent side and i'm going with 2-2. a very winnable game though. krul simpson - taylor - campbell - enrique routledge - barton - tiote - jonas ameobi - carroll like ronaldo, i'd actually like to give best a try but without even a substitute appearance, i doubt its happening. EDIT: so mulumbu IS available? damn

Strange, I thought he was poor today. Got very lucky with the Kalou miss too.

We'll be on TV. So will Man Utd-Liverpool and Arsenal-Leeds.

REMATCH

He was fantastic again today. In fact he's consistently brilliant. Even when we lost 5-1 last week, he scored. Without scoring in the derby he was my man of the match and he just keeps scoring. Defenders absolutely hate him and he's rising to the challenge every week. We really have a special talent here and its so exciting to have England's great hope for the next decade banging in goals for you.

Top drawer

chelsea were pretty poor. plenty of the ball, but were definitely beatable if we didn't make so many mistakes. felt like stevie taylor was a liability but campbell played well. simpson was good and routledge was very good. superb by carroll as well. thought ranger looked bright when he came on. so whilst a win was there for the taking, i'll definitely take a draw. one closer to safety :thup: carroll, routledge, campbell simpson, enrique ameobi, s taylor, krul

I dunno why, but I just fancy Kluivert to score tomorrow. Wahey! I'm talking to you. I am growing increasingly confident about Carroll being too much for their defence to handle, especially with Terry out, Campbell and Taylor a nuisance on set plays, and the weather condit-... shit! We can't escape the weather, can we? Tiote and Carroll will rough 'em up.
