What a mistake to take vdV off. He didn't have a particularly good half, but he drops deep well and provides an extra outlet for the midfield, that was really helpful going against Chelsea's three to four man midfield. And plus, Pav is just awful. Really good game, though.

Hamstrung apparently.

I like how they've taken us off the league graphic despite there clearly being room for 7th.

 

Whilst we were above Liverpool, they talked about the top 7 but as soon as we dropped below them, it became the top 6.

Heh, there was a debate on another forum about how big a head start a 3rd/4th tier club would need to be competitive against Barcelona.  Most users said 10-15, but one semi-arrogant gambler/stat guy was adamant it'd be closer to 7.

 

Dismissed.

Ridiculous game tonight, glad I finally went :lol:

 

L'Hospitalet are a third tier side, but one of the best in that division, I wasn't expecting so many goals. Our biggest win in 30 years apparently.

 

Tello's second, what a finish.

 

If you hadn't played Pinto it would have been a full XI of Masia graduates.

Aye, and Hospitalet had quite a few of them too.

 

It felt bad at times doing that to our neighbors (would love to make it to our *other* neighbors in two weeks' time, mind)

 

With Villa's injury and the new 3 CB thingy it'd be pretty possible for you to play a full XI of them in a big game. Should do it for the lolz.

 

Surely you don't hate Espanyol that much? Is it not more pity than genuine hatred?

I have tried to feel some pity/sympathy for them, but they do really make it hard with all the bitterness. Next game will be the third year in a row Barça fans are barred from buying tickets for the derby despite the lack of incidents, out of pure spite. Their board have refused our invitation to come to the Camp Nou for the home derby since god knows when citing grievances that you could dig up alongside the Rosetta stone. They really make it hard.

 

They have no ambition as a club, their only reason to live is to try to get points off us, and claim that we lost the league because of them. The derby is their cup final, and know what? In two weeks they still won't fill that shiny new stadium.

 

And what the hell, a derby is always a derby.
