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.

VI, I think your Canal+ must be broken.

Indeed. Another angle confirms my suspicions.  :sadnod:

Barca's overload strategy in the final third clearly to blame.  :coolsmiley:

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!

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.)

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.

That goal he scored against u's for Betis is one of my favourite goals.
