FC Barcelona Thread [2010/11]

[Mr.Crosas]

Well, Pique did it against Atletico! So, he didn't do it for Abidal, he did it for Shakira(they were born at the same date,2.2. Pique was born 10 years after Shakira)!
So, they were together at least from September, so if Pique was not very well at the last matches, we know that it is not because of Shakira.

 

[Arnau]

if Pique was not very well at the last matches

Thats not true.

 

[Mr.Crosas]

That's why I wrote "if".
There were some matches he didn't played well(ex-Arsenal) and id said that Shakira is the reason.

 

[Dytza]

Valdés - Alves, Piqué, Busquets, Adriano - Xavi, Mescherano, Keita - Messi, Villa, Iniesta.

Visca el Barça!

 

[Arnau]

Papá Iniesta!

 

[poet11]

It is hurting me to type such words but Barcelona were magical and Andres Iniesta is a genius.....up there with the best footballers ever. Caution: U need Puyol back and fit as soon as possible

EDIT: Iniesta deserves much more attention and credit than he gets but words or individual awards still wont be enough to appreciate him

4 clasicos in the space of one month. The Spanish press is going to go crazy! I have a feeling Madrid will win at least once, but just imagine if Barca beats Madrid 5 times this season... that will be very hard to do though.

I don't know, Barcelona has been shaky in defense lately, I have a feeling Real Madrid will be in the CL final.

The 22 years old defender Alberto Botía will be back to Barcelona next june after 2 excellent seasons in Sporting, 1,5M € buy back clause.

Messi 29 > Ronaldo 28

Messi didn’t score while Ronaldo was injured, what a sportsmanship

Btw, Villa’s lack of goal scoring in recent weeks reminds me Ibra 2010. He really works hard and I hope he scores soon and answers critics.

Messi now ties Ronaldo for the club record of most goals scored in a season with 47. Let's see where he ends up. Over/under on 55?

Ohhh u mean real Ronaldo, I wondered when Cristiano scored that many goals. I think Messi scored 47 last season as well.

He was amazing this year, 47 goals in 45 matches + 23 assist, even in Fifa it's very hard to score that many goals with a single player.

he can play 12 more matches this year (at most), I estimate 54, 55 for him.

 

[Sevillista]

This is off topic, outdated, and very self indulgent, but I came across these pictures and my spine tingled just looking at them. They capture Iniesta and others in this moment where they are exploding with excitement. They capture the emotion of that moment more than any replay. I want a framed poster of Iniesta in that first picture.

This is what sports are all about.

 

[Jaboldinho]

Chills.

 

[RobbieD_PL]

Chills. +1

My memory of that final is the second photo, and when the whole team form a massive circle scrum in the corner when they've realised that they've just won the WC.

David Villa was offside.

 

[paolo-fcb]

David Villa was offside.

YOUR BRAIN IS OFFSIDE.........

 

[Filipower]

At least I have one.

 

[poet11]

Yeah fine great achievement......CONGRATS......2010 is over now so please stop that it was one heart aching moment....
