Village Idiot Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Practicing for 2nd leg against Arsenal when he'll play CB. The penalty sums up why I don't think Busquets should play in defence, he isn't a good tackler. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Also (obviously) pleased to see Osasuna tonk Espanyol 4-0 and doing it with style. Osasuna have way too good players to play the dreary shit that they played under Camacho. Nekounam with a brace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 They have just issued an apology saying it was "a technical mistake" after being caught red-handed, but they surely can. How do you "mistakenly" edit out a player from a photo? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I take it that AS is anti-Barca then. They make the mujahedeen look fair and balanced. One of their editorial points is that the Spanish FA conspires against Real Madrid to prevent them from winning the league, hence stuff like this.

LRD Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 How about Marca? My impression is that it's pro-Real, but quite reliable in terms of their reporting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 How about Marca? My impression is that it's pro-Real, but quite reliable in terms of their reporting. If you get past their Real Madrid stuff, they are without a doubt the best sports daily in Spain. Used to be better under their previous ownership, though. In general it's not a good time for quality sports journalism in Spain. Best writers are found in the general press, actually. The Barcelona rags, truth be said, are pretty awful. "El Mundo Deportivo" used to be a great neutral newspaper when I was young, but it is unreadable Barça fluff nowadays. "Sport" lives in some strange parallel dimension where Real Madrid is always on the brink of relegation and we have won the CL 14 times in a row.

Another angle confirms my suspicions. http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/8297/barcabd.jpg Barca's overload strategy in the final third clearly to blame.

matta Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 1) Xavi pass leading to Barça's first goal as published today in "As", where an offside is claimed: 2) Screen grab of the same play from Canal+ Spot the difference! http://www.as.com/recorte/20110221dasdasftb_15/LCO/Ies/Barcelona-Athletic.jpg www.as.com don't get the offside rule? or did they just put lines out there for fun, they dont seem to make much sense to me atleast... (Decision 1: In the definition of offside position, “nearer to his opponents’ goal line” means that any part of his head, body or feet is nearer to his opponents’ goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent. The arms are not included in this definition.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Our next 5 away games: Mallorca Sevilla Valencia Villarreal Real Madrid However, after the Clásico Real Madrid too have Valencia/Sevilla/Villarreal away (plus Atlético de Madrid, not that it matters). If we got of this stretch alive, I think we'll win this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
