No.

YES! Starting to go mad without the footy. Same.

Inter have had 43 seperate injuries this season. 43 Yet suddenly the entire squad is fit and available for the Club World Championships? There's rabbit off here like, the players clearly hate Rafa and wont play for him - so hopefully the rumours of his sacking are true.

PLEASE BE TRUE.

Even spelt his name wrong ffs

No way that is Vuckic like.

I thought so. I often notice this season he seems to be spending a lot of time deep in midfield, often alongside Xavi and Iniesta, and couldn't quite remember if that had happened as much last season. I guess replacing Zlatan with Villa has made that switch easier, Ibra seemed to want to spend time on the ball and do a lot of the work that Messi is at the moment. The system seems to be functioning well at the moment though, rather than relying on Messi for his goals you're having him assist the others and spread the goals around well. It's a beautiful machine right now, even better to watch than the 08/09 team.

Messi is racking up the assists though, he's already got more this season than he did through the whole of last season. Is this down to a tactical change?

He's playing a dangerous game, but he's always been adept at playing everyone around him. As long as he brings results he won't be sacked, but he's making it so if he ever struggles there won't be an eyelid batted. He seems to firmly have all the players not named Canales, Benzema and Pedro León at his side, which I guess it's what matters and why he's doing all this. Completely unrelated, but have you seen this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010%E2%80%9311_La_Liga#cite_note-20 Marca has awared Pepe's goal from earlier in the season to Cristiano Ronaldo, keeping him ahead of Messi for the Pichichi. You'd never guess Marca was a Madrid paper, eh.

Har, har, har.

The San Paolo has nearly always had an awful pitch from what I can remember. The ground is decrepit and basically falling apart, like most of Naples. The passion for football in the city is absolutely incredible though, they got 50,000 for a match when they were in Serie C.

I'm always at edge here when requesting any form of football clips! Apologies for asking football clip specific forums first

Anybody have the Chelsea match recorded in some shape or form? Need that interview with AC from pre-match. (am I allowed to ask this?)

He's been incredible all season. 19 goals in 27 games, glad Spurs didn't sign him.

I think Xavi is better, in all honesty. At least on par.

Couple weeks at home. They will have a quite hard finish to the season. All of Valencia, Sevilla and Villareal away inside the last 6 weeks. I really don't want to see them win anything.

Yeah I don't think they have, while Barca beat them 3-1 not long ago. Think that will be the only real threat to take points off them, Villarreal are a different beast this season.

Have Madrid played Villarreal yet?

See that's what I've always hated about Mourinho, not the tactics, but the way he encourages the players to drag the game into merky waters in order to win the game. Basically anything that falls outside the boundaries of the game, it's all so ugly. Even at Inter I hated the players acting like complete cunts, you can see the kind of players that wont go along with his shit, Zanetti was like that.

Hate this Madrid team.

What are you doing Negredo you cock.

You twát.
