I said this in the Champions League thread, and I'll repeat it here: in the Group Stages, Pandev was not an Inter player, and the entire attacking side of the team was still trying to gel into their new squad, while their new centre back was getting acclimatized too ...bybuti;2856038 said:and lol at all posts sayin Mourinho taught a lesson to Pep. What about Pep teaching him a lesson some months ago where Inter couldn't do 2 consecutive passes.
They give all the credits to a coach whose team won because opponent's mistakes in the defense ... Well done!
well, I was definitely one of the people who said that; in fact, I think I was the only one who used those words ...bybuti;2856038 said:lol at all posts sayin Mourinho taught a lesson to Pep.
rubbish ... get past the pressure? what pressure? Barcelona were so lacklustre, and hardly played with any intensity ... ridiculous to make such a conclusion based on one match ... EDIT: it is tantamount to saying 'Barcelona are a weak side if they play badly' ...ladylover;2856179 said:Well to be fair Inter's defence is miles better then Arsenal's. It will be difficult for Barca, but there's always a chance. Unlucky for Barca, Inter showed that this Barca side is very weak (if you get past the pressure from midfield)when counter-attacked. One goal from Inter and it's almost game over....
judging him too harshly on one match ... Maicon and Dani Alves are the 2 names that are consistently mentioned when talking about the "world's best right back" ... I have always advocated Maicon as the best, and Dani Alves as a close second ... but it was such irony that both Maicon and Dani Alves had shockers in the first half; anyone who was seeing them for the first time would have laughed at the suggestion that they were two best in the world ...ShiftyPowers;2856186 said:Yeah, Barcelona's defense was comical. Alves is a bit of a sham defensively, and so is Maxwell to a certain extent, and Inter exploited the space behind Alves and Maxwell with long balls on the counter attack. It worked brilliantly.
Arnau;2856191 said:Whole team were weak, not only the defense. If Barça plays at his full level doesn't matter if inter defense with 11 mans in the box (they won't, i guess they will try to stop the match all the time) we will make it.
Arnau;2856018 said:Yes we shouldn't blame a player, the defensive line or just the referee, whole team were unrecognizable last night. If in the second leg we are Barça again, we will make it.
again, more terrific posts from you Arnau ... I would especially call attention to the second quote, which is what I think everyone should understandArnau;2856160 said:Dream team come back a 3-1 in what its considered one of our best games ever, lets do the same!

The waitor came to the table next to mine and started talking to the customer about the tuesday's match, teasing him about Barcelona losing. I figured he was a friend of the waitor or something, and they talked a lot about football. Didn't really pay that much attention to it. Then when he had talked for awhile, I realized his voice sounded very familiar. I took a look, and who was it? None other, than Jari Litmanen!
haha, that's an awesome story! clearly you have classy taste in food (or King Jari likes to dine with the "commoners" ) ... did you talk to him / say anything to him?Jaboldinho;2857089 said:Funny thing happened to me last night at an Italian restaurant.
