Can't imagine people (cuz I REALLY won't call you fans) are bashing Valdes! He's the best goalkeeper for Barca! Even Casillas feels threatened by him! If he hadn't been catalan, he would already have been Spain's first goalkeeper! Don't get me wrong: Casillas is worldclass too, but the footwork of Valdes is the best there is and no other goalkeeper could do a better job for Barca than our VV!
Not only this Chelsea-fight, but also the final! If we manage to win the CL and the Copa Del Rey, we would still have had a WONDERFUL season! Besides, we already won the Spanish supercup, European supercup and the Club World Cup. The liga was already lost with 10 points behind... so the clasico of saturday wasn't really dramatic! It were just 3 points... __A lot of Barca Fans (and football fans in general) act like if Barca had a dramatic season! We expect perfection of Barca and we thought they were unbeatable and would win all clasico's. Actually it's good that we lost a game! That brings our feet all back to earth. _Drama would only begin if we were to lose the final of the CL against Madrid! In the meantime, we'll support the team that have given us priceless joys the last 4 years! __And for all those saying that Barca will be nowhere next year, I can only say one thing: If Barca plays like they have been doing against Chelsea and Madrid, they'll compete for every major title! __For those who say that without Puyol ans Xavi, we're nothing: just watch and admire the Barca youngsters that already getting a large amount of minutes and can only get stronger and stronger!
Reading all these comments and posts makes me think of how dissapointed I am... But our team gave everything!!! It just wasn't meant to be... Still have faith in this team, no matter what happens on tuesday!
Can't let you say that. Hleb certainly has some talent! Besides, before joining Barca he was a very good player with Arsenal. If the system doesn't fit him and he can't manage to learn catalan, it's normal that Barcelona find a better solution for him and for the club. But to say that Hleb is a bad player isn't true.
Fabregas only scored 35 goals in his 8 seasons at Arsenal, not 100!
You need to start this filosophy at every stage of the youth teams! They need to play for CENTURIES with the same filosophy and with the same formation! And you need someone like Guardiola or Cruyff to implement that. Besides that, you also need players who are capable of playing that way! And what you also need is BALLS! Daring to attack against the best teams in the world without having any fear of conceding a goal isn't just a filosophy, it's also a mental strenght!
La verdad es que si!!! :D grande Andres!!
Like Pep said in the interview after the game: Messi never dives! When he falls, it's because he has been seriously fouled! #EnoughSaid
Can't wait to see Piqué and Puyol on the starting 11! We missed them too much! Pique with Puyol is like having Nesta, Terry, Vidic, Ferdinand and Kompany in defense :-D! Pique's runs forward through the whole midfield is just piquesque ;-)!
