SEMTEX Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 What screws Barca over is that Chelsea can just play their second string this weekend. Barca will never get away with doing that in El Clásico, especially when the points difference in La Liga is now... 4 pts? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Who the f*** are Savillia? God forbid they should pronounce a foreign teams name right Dave. It's pronounced seveeea phonetically speaking, due to the double L. I was being sarcastic. Chelsea did exactly what I expected, they realised that Barca have tremendous team chemistry so just tried to play Anti-Football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Snrub Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Why are they praising Cech?! I've never seen worse distribution from a keeper in a match in my life, he couldn't catch a cold in the arctic and none of the saves he had to make were even any good. Horrible Chelsea cunts. So negative. At least 6 behind the ball all game and just hoofing it when they get it. Oh well, still confident they'll get done at Stamford Bridge where they are slighty less boring and leave a bit more space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 So barca go to stamford bridge need to score a goal, and they are laughing. I can't see chelsea scoring 2 against them, so barca to go through on away goals 1-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Is there anything that David f***ing Pleat doesn't like to see monopolised? The game itself just struck me as a replica of the Barca-Man Utd semi last year. Man Utd going there to stifle Barca's attacking threat, Barca just trying to pass through the eye of the needle. Chelsea, unlike most Spanish teams, can actually defend. And on their day, defend very well indeed. Iniesta impressed me, him and Xavi are almost identical in their style of play. Unfortunately that style of play didn't quite click tonight. And btw, I haven't seen that much live La Liga football this year, but has Puyol been in good form? Didn't look particularly confident when he came on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toonarmy Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 player on barca who impressed me the most today was dani alves (I'm ignoring his overdramatized rolling around and screaming). I know how good messi and the stars are, but alves' crossing is brilliant, good defending on the other end as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Disappointing match. Chelsea are a horrible football club. Even though they got what they came for (as did Man Utd last year), they did not exactly endear themselves to the neutral fan. This is why I hope Barcelona rape all the teams left in the competition this year. I know it's practical to be defensive but come on, you're ruining football, man, and this mentality, if it's constantly successful, will spread. Barca will be in a bit of trouble at the back for the second leg with Puyol suspended and Marquez out with a cruciate (or so it looked to me) but they created chances today with Chelsea having 11 men in their half for most of the match and I think they'll be able to win it at Stamford Bridge. Here's hoping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Fucking hate Chelsea. Negative as fuck, did nothing but stifle Barca, never even really thought about launching an attack of their own. Can't wait til Chelsea attack at home, and Barca absolutely thrash them Munich style. Bit disappointed with Messi tonight, very good when going at players, but never really impacted the game as much as I would have liked him to. Thought Iniesta and Xavi were superb though.

Mr. Snrub Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Iniesta moves around the pitch like a ballet dancer, his balance is ridiculous. Unbelievable player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Iniesta moves around the pitch like a ballet dancer, his balance is ridiculous. Unbelievable player. It's nice to watch people not dive at every bit of contact (like Alves and Drogba tonight). I always appreciate a player that moves about the pitch and only goes down if there is serious contact, there's too many players these days that go down under such minimal contact it's sickening. Imagine the number of players that could be world-class if they didn't spend half their time on the ground. Stay up, keep the ball, do something your team rather than just diving to get a free-kick.
