    Question is, is he as good as George Best or Bobby Charlton?

    (Yes, a thoroughly defunct question but it's one of those that gets asked by a fair few )
  2. A lot of people said only Best or Maradona could have scored a goal like Messi's second.
  3. Messi is definetely the best player in recent times; to be considered the best ever he should start to do the same things with Argentina too.
    Maradona did what he did in Napoli, not exactly the Barcelona of today, and won a world cup all alone (placing second in another one).

    anyway 52 goals in this season .. til now

  4. I scored a similar one only a few months back on my left foot (which is shocking compared to my right) minutes after dislocating my knee-cap!

    Granted, we were playing 7-a-side and it was against my friends at uni...

    ...BUT IT ALL STILL COUNTS!

    Haha, maybe we can put up a new poll:

    "Who is the best player ever, Lionel or Harry?"
  6. By the way, I think Mourinho should be suspended for a long time. Again, he's stating that Barcelona only won because all referees and all of UEFA are in favour of Barcelona. He's insinuating and stating so much shit, it's unreal.

    He's such a sore loser, it's getting more and more ridiculously childish.
  7. just saw the fouls from the game and Mourinho's reactions on tv. unbelievable


  8. Add me to that poll, hahaha, I've made a lot of beautiful goals
  9. All whiners on the field. Asking for cards etc, is all spanish football like that?

    In that case i prefer the premier leauge 1000x more.
  10. Just watch snooker and cricket. Gentlemanly to the core
  11. And rugby for a bit of action, no playacting.

    The feelings I suppose you're experiencing about this now is probably very close to what I felt while watching your national team in the world championships
