Segun Oluwaniyi Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Funny how Barca are 3-1 up at half against a decent team and all the talk is about their lack of cohesion. Well it would be when they had it perfect last season, and now its not. Results are results obviously, but they're not as good as last year, and Real have improved drastically. Really? I haven't seen a drastic improvement. He's been injured for a few weeks. What about the other 100 million pounds they spent? Not working out, then? Pity Spain has such good options for the wings, otherwise I would fancy Pedro having a chance of making the World Cup. He still can if he keeps this goalscoring form all season though, 8 in 15 for a winger is silly. Is Enrique even mentioned as a potential squad member? Capdevilla is weak. You'd think he would get a chance. Not going to happen while playing in the Championship. I reckon he would be in the mix if Newcastle hadn't got relegated. Hmmm....I just hope that's not reason he mentions when Atletico or someone sign him in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 And replacing Pedro who has already stuck 2 past Mallorca, is some bloke called Lionel. Never gonna be a player with a name like Lionel. May as well give up now, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding that, there's that interview that he gave in Spain where he said there had been "interest in him but no formal offers" before the season started. They also asked him about Valencia/Atlètico/Villarreal etc... coming after him and he dodged the question with the usual "i only want to focus on Newcastle" talk. Most amusing thing of the whole interview is that he said that Viduka was his favorite player at Newcastle. He had great praise for the fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time last season the difference in class was far bigger. I dont think you can deny that Barca arent as good and Real have improved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 4-2 after Messi and Keita (his, not ours) score in the dying minutes of the game. Now we segue onto the Real - Atlético derby. Atlético hasn't defeated Real Madrid in 10 years. Agüero on the bench with a knock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Madrid is winning 0-3 and the game is pretty much in the bag, but that doesn't stop Sergio Ramos to show his uncanny ability to get sent off. In a less amusing note, something has struck Pellegrini in his face. That's the Vicente Calderón closed down, you idiot fan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Preston were shockingly bad, I was surprised. I have to say, I really love how we play right now. We're playing good attractive football, with a young side, our youngsters mixed with Lansbury and Cleverley both of whom are immensely talented. To have the likes of Hodson, Bennett, Jenkins, Mariappa and Loach contributing loads, playing attractive football really makes me quite proud. I don't really care if we don't win every game, a young side will always be inconsistent, but it's far far more pleasing for me to have such a squad. I expect little from us, but we are doing incredibly well with hardly any resources. The players who aren't 'ours' (in terms of youth products (or that we can claim to be our youth products)) are extremely likeable as well, which is brilliant, Harley, Cowie and Graham never ever stop trying. It's brilliant to watch and they've all endeared themselves to the crowd. And we have Heidar back (for a while). This team is wonderful. I love it, even if we aren't the greatest, I'd rather have this than be QPR/Notts County/Man City -esque. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
