    Yep, and C. Ronaldo has been failing in a lot of decisive moments of his career, in my opinon.

    About the Europa League final, as I said to Sergio on Facebook, it will be a better game to watch than the UCL final since there are 2 teams that usually like to attack their opponents.


  2. he seems to have a blank check in the pocket ... i also read somewhere of contact by English federation .. so don't you want to go to Brazil in 2014? hehe

    Dani Alves -> Anzhi .. Barca starting to crumble?


  3. No, the less major tournaments that England make, the better. How pathetic that our FA would even consider him. Just give it to some idiot and give us a good laugh.
  4. I know you guys wanna talk about football and bets and tactics and all that around here -- go ahead Just ignore this comment.
    But as (almost) the only grandma girl threadjacking this topic here, I grant myself a fangirl moment again... because it's just one day left until we bid farewell to the greatest player we ever saw wearing our jersey... just one more day until


  5. Can't think of a better coach for Barcelona than Guardiola but I'm really afraid he's announcing his goodbye today..

    I'm so sad for you and for him, but also so glad, because you and him have got to enjoy yourselves for a couple of unforgettable years... Just remember that. I'm sure the stadium's farewell will be grand, I'm just hoping that he can score some goal(s) at the last match and dedicate them to all of you
  7. Regarding Guardiola, I agree with Remy. He's the best imaginable coach (for the Barça or for any other team) but I'm afraid he might be saying goodbye today. It's sad, becuase the main reason for him to do so is probably the strong harassment that the almost-fascist and Real Madrid-winged press have done against him over the last years.

    The main thing that fascinates me about him is him being a gentleman, always. Even after defeats vs. Real, Chelsea, Inter, he's still a gentleman, congratulating his opponent, never blaming the refereree, or someone's playing style. He's your best image to the outside world you can have as a club I guess.

    Yes, yes, and yes. And that's exactly what makes him the best coach out there. Mourinho's tactics might be better and Fergusson might have stronger presence, but Guardiola surpasses them all, because he's a gentleman in and out the field, and towards his friends and opponents. Bravo for him. I will truly regret if he leaves today...
  10. at least he has the good taste not to complain about the referees .. god forbid
    tell Drogba, Thiago Motta, Nesta just naming some

    lots of skeletons in the closet at Barca too
  11. Jumped the ship before it sank. Shame he can't take Messi with him wherever he goes. Messi would play in another team the same way Messi plays for Argentina...

    Hope Chelsea don't get him because Roberto Di Matteo has done a brilliant job since taking over from AVB. Would be a real kick in the teeth for Di Matteo. Deep down he must think he deserves the job despite saying he isn't going to get it.
