so, according to your strategy, he won't be playing against Athletic either way ... all he needs to do is score against Mallorca, and take off his shirt in celebration ... (he could take off his shirt if someone else scored as well, but it would look a little weird ...)bybuti;2841098 said:Alves has 4 yellow cards, so he either needs to pick up one more against Mallorca or not play against Billbao next week. We can't afford losing him for the el clasico.
Messi had a ridiculously purple patch for a while there, but he wasn't very impressive in the last match, and played no active part in either goal ... that may be a sign of fatigue, or a sign that he is not superhuman, as everyone expects him to be ... a rest would do him well either way ... a combination of 3 or 4 out of Pedro, Bojan, Titi, Iniesta, and Zlatan should be able to produce the goals needed to win the match ... plus, the plan is for Dani Alves to score a goal and remove his shirt in celebration, so there is no need to worry about getting goals while Leo is missing ...Arnau;2841124 said:Messi rested? are you kidding me? mallorca won ALL home matches besides the one against Sevilla.
Well, Mallorca are in 4th place for a reason. I wouldn't overestimate them, and I'm sure Barcelona won't. That being said, it might not hurt to rest Messi and bring him on as a sub if needed.KingPaulV;2841325 said:Oh Gosh stop being overly Dramatic...Barca is not every other team that goes to Ono.....You guys are gonna decide the match in 30 minutes and ride out...no way Pep lets the team play like crap two matches one after the other......
After this weekend everything should be the same in La Liga, i really expect the Clasico to be the more or less decisive match
pep as always? what the hell are you talking about? i called it ...even buti called it ... and sevillista agreed ... you're the only blind man around here who couldn't see that messi would be rested ... having said that Mallorca have started brightly, if things don't pick up, then sevillista's statement about brining leo on if/when needed would have been the most accurate ...Arnau;2841744 said:Jeffren starter, messi reserve. Pep as always.
genius?! hahaha ... what? for this? good one ...bybuti;2841747 said:Genius as always!
FORÇA BARÇA!
fair enough, Jeffrén starting ahead of Henry was a bit of a surprise, especially after Titi said he did not want to play against the Arse ... but Messi not starting was not at all a surprise ...Arnau;2841824 said:Xifio dont get me wrong, none would predict a line up with jeffren, even you. Not the first pep surprise, thats what i mean...
Dytza;2841827 said:Alves yellow card was so so funny but he needed it. We couldn't risk losing him for El Clasico.
the bastard Dani, he had a smirk on his face as he took the throw-in after getting cardedbybuti;2841836 said:and btw 3, Xif, did you see the way Alves took the yellow card? haha Pep was just some steps away.
yup, brought back memories of Ronaldinho; always fun to see the unorthodox things being executed well ... Ibra is a master at it ...bybuti;2841836 said:And, I'm fucking glad for Ibra. He's coming back at his best form. Man, that pass to Mess with his back was incredible; I only saw Ronnie doing that before.
I don't like this shade of yellow for the shirts anyway ... I actually thought it looked "better" (relatively speaking) with yellow shorts than with the dark blue shorts ...bybuti;2841836 said:and btw 2, why the fuck Nike came up with those ugly yellow shorts?

This is a very beautiful color.

Dytza;2841898 said:Uhm... Yeah.But we had a decent performance in that match too, with Messi in a great form aswell.
