F.C. Barcelona Thread [2004-2005]

[SuRFy]

So we're 8 points in front !

Cheers DT !

 

[americangreg]

still 15 minutes left, anything can happen...

 

[SuRFy]

I'm hoping Aimar scores again...

 

[Dream Team]

Aimar hit the crossbar in the minute 92..

8 points again



Now that the rivals in la Liga are far away Barça can concentrate in the CL.

 

[SuRFy]

ooohh damn, i was close, also Aimar.

i Hope the 3000 Barca fans help Barca pound Chelski.

 

[ninobomba]

its gonna be hard in London but i got the hopes up, we can come up with a tie atleast

 

[americangreg]

My theory:

2 Scenario's:

1st Scenario: Chelsea scores first. What happens? Chelsea fall back into their defensive mode an build a wall in front of Peter Cheh. In my opinion Barcelona will still be able to score a goal and then it'll be 1-1, Barça go through...

2nd Scenario: Barcelona score first. Now Chelsea have to score twice and they go all offense. We get an open game where Barça has more space up front and Barça will score the second...

So basically Barça goes through

I know many other things could happen, like 2 goals from chelsea, but I can't imagine that Barça not scoring a goal. Basicaly we'll get a much more open game and Barça will be able to attack more...

 

[Dream Team]

That's what I call a great theory


I think Chelsea will go for the 1-0 and I think their chance is to score in the last minutes. When Barça has to attack desperately, when there's nothing to lose, they're just unstoppable. I'm sure that Barça will score at least once.

I hope it happens the second scenario, with the first one I would suffer too much



Márquez is doubtful for the game



EDIT: forget that, I will suffer anyway

can't wait

 

[americangreg]

I will suffer anyway

I think we all will, no matter what scenario..

 

[SuRFy]

Rafa is doubtful for the game. That probably means Demetrio will start.

 

[ninobomba]

guys dont to be to cofident things can go wrong :P

being negative = positive scenario

 

[SuRFy]

Taling about overconfidence, Drogba has said that Chelski have already won the FA Premier League.

 

[Dream Team]

Márquez isn't in th list for the game.. though Giuly is.

List:
Goalkeepers: Valdés and Jorquera.
Defenders: Belletti, Puyol, Damià, Oleguer, Gio Van Bronckhorst, Sylvinho and Fernando Navarro.
Midfielders: Gerard, Xavi, Albertini, Deco and Iniesta.
Forwards: Giuly, Ronaldinho, Maxi and Eto'o.

The last match Gerard substituted Márquez and he demonstrated that he's not in good shape.. don't know who will play.

 

[ManU2000]

Damn, Marquez is out with a hamstring injury, he needs a week to rest. I feel real bad for him, tough luck.

 

[SuRFy]

Yeah, i'd bet his really cut missing the big game. I just hope Maxi starts.

I dont know what u think but i see albertini alittle slow , hes not doing a good job, maybe it just me..

 

[Dream Team]

I would start Gerard. One of the things that we miss without Márquez is the set pieces, Márquez is our best player in set pieces. Gerard is pretty good at that as well and more suited to that position than Albertini.

 

[SuRFy]

Yeah, DT what was Motta again, was he a CDM or a CAM, i forgot.

 

[Dream Team]

CDM

I hope he recovers his form, takes Máquez's spot in the midfield and Márquez takes Oleguer's spot in the defense.

They said he would be back these days.. though I've not read anything about him lately.

 

[Mauricio]

Bad luck for Marquez, he is a great player, a lot of technique for a defence he is a world class defender an DMC
