Guest LucaAltieri Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 The Ronaldo wankathon reminds me of Frank Lampard several years ago, you know, back when he was better than Kaka, Ronaldinho, etc. A good player in great form will always be vastly inferior to a great player in good form. It's always games like this where Ronaldo gets found out. Just like the Milan semi-final a year back. Kaka was the star that night and Messi has been the star tonight. I've not doubt Ronaldo could be as good as those two but he needs to perform on the bigger stage and not just against the Boltons and Middlesboroughs.

Taylor Swift Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Zambrotta = Pure class. What the fuck? He gave away the ball for the goal and was skimmed by almost everyone he tried to mark (Ronaldo and Evra especially). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 You know, even now, an hour after the game, I think that was a pantheon performance from Messi. He was a goal away from probably making it into my top 3 individual performances ever. Considering the circumstances, the team he was playing against, the pressure, and all that jazz, he was simply amazing. I've run out of superlatives to describe him with. The whole match was actually excellent. This was what should have been served up in the first leg. It reminded me why I love football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really not on that he isn't brilliant in every single game he plays in. Don't recall much criticism of him in the quarter final. He played his part in what was an excellent team performance.

Shearergol Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Without reading the last couple of pages, can I assume that people have sore dicks from wanking about Messi? Created nothing tonight, despite his dribbles. Don't know what the fuss is about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more other people going against my grain Just never really rated Messi. OK, he's scored a couple of fantastic goals, but I can't believe people talk about him being the new Maradona. Not even close. Ronaldo is better IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Don't think I've ever heard anyone who actually knew what they were talking about saying he's the new Maradona, rather a media tag, which he has unfairly been labeled with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Created nothing tonight, despite his dribbles. Don't know what the fuss is about. You mean he was the only one on the Barca team willing to make something happen? Up against 2-4 defenders everytime he received the ball (even at awkward heights) and lost it only once. The way the ball sticks to his feet reminds me of the way it used to stick to Zidane's boots. It was a majestic performance from him. And yes, I do have a sore dick. He's awesome, man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barcelona could have played for another 7 hours and still wouldn't have scored. For all of their attacking talent they really have no end product whatsoever. Why don't they stick Henry and Bojan up front for the game and see what happens, rather than pissing about with this "all of our attacking players will sit on the wing" crap they do? Oh, and Deco can certainly sign for us if he wants Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1878 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Messi is a fantastic player. He totally upstaged Ronaldo in these two games. Not saying that would always be the case, but it's how it was this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
