Kx:

Did  madrid have a year pre- season while barca had just a couple of weeks?
Did nt Higuain, Di Maria away from madrid pre season for copa america?
other than messi, dani alves and sanchex, who else among barca players were away for barca pre-season?

Now peeps are saying morinho is anti footie becos he was caught on camera almost hitting barca assistant coach.
did nt people also see that the[b] barca assistant coach retaliated?[/b]

Why would every madrid vs barca news always be reported in favor of barca?
Cant the truth be told anymore when barca is involved?

Van persie kicked the ball away in aresnal vs barca UCL match and persie was given a controversial 2nd yellow and sent off. Didnt Messi kick the ball away in frustration yseterday under the referees watch and nothing was done to him?

Whatever happens, at the end of the day, the world will have one Pep Guardiola that have won the UCL
a number of times with Barca while there will only be one Jose Morinho that has won the UCL with more than 2 different clubs at different times.

I'm a lifelong madrid supporter but I have to be honest with the assesment of both legs. Madrid honestly outplayed barcelona but Messi is just too good. He is undoubtedly the best player on the planet. He performs in big games unlike our Christiano Ronaldo who always fails to live up to big games. I do have some points on Madrid's performance


Minus
-Mourhino failed tactically to pocket Messi
-Khedira isn't performing his role effectively because Pepe would definetely slow down Messi and not allow him the space he was given
-Marcelo is just an , He was lucky not to get a red in the first leg
-Although Benzema didn't perform the way I expected I must say that Mourhino shouldn't have taken him out instead Khedira should have been taken out and replaced with Callejon, with Coentrao and Marcelo alternating between 3 and 4 positions.
-Clearly shows that Carvalho is actually reducing in performance we might need a new defender.
-I wonder how a Madrid team with Nuri Sahin as ochestrator would perform against the likes of Xavi and Iniesta in midfield
-Kaka failed to bring in urgency into the attack and midfield. In my opinion he eigther needs more playing time or he's a spent force in football.

Plus
-Apart from a few mistakes highlighted above Mourhino did well. He reduced Barca's dominance in midfield
-The chances on goal should have been clearly taken advantage of with Benzema being the biggest culprit but Mourhino's team is the only team to have so many chances at goal against a Barca full team.
- A highly entertaining game with lots of positives to say there is a bright future for this team.
-This performance would be a future big profit generator for the future because non of the premier league teams would give you this kind of exciting football performance.

Mourinho is a muppet. He's always getting involved in stuff that he should leave the assistants to do. When the fight broke out, Guardiola wasnt in the thick of it, but Mourinho just hd to carry that his square head and go look for trouble. I didnt like him much b4, but this his attitude is starting to annoy me. He should behave like a coach that has gone to 3 differnt clubs proven his mettle and won championships; a coach with CLASS. He is turning Real Madrid into rugby bullies, and he will soon reap a whirlwind of red cards if he doesnt talk to his boys and tell them to cool it.

Real had better control of the two games but failed to make it count by scoring the goals. In the end I guess Messi was the difference.

AS for all the diving, anybody that has watched LaLiga for a while will tend to agree that it is a Spanish thing, I have seen it time and time again, although in last season's meeting btw the two clubs, Barcelona took the diving up another notch.

The problem with Maldrid is Jose Mourinho .

Jose Mourinho's pattern is very Negative for football.

See the how he poked Barca's assistant coach after the game.

let him try that nonsense with AC Milan and see if Gattuso won't beat him up.

Were is mama-geeeeee.

Let her come and tell us how CR7 is better than Messi

Ronaldo is better than messi, where was messi in the first leg?

He was nowhere to be found just because Xavi was on the bench and he only managed to score a goal because of a mistake from the madrid defenders, as a matter of fact, I don't think he touched the ball up to five times throughout the whole match.

Ronaldo played extremely well in the first leg and didn't need a tap in and he played well to in the second leg too. . .

Only recently did people realize it, at least that's why Pro evolution soccer ditched messi for ronaldo as their PES 2012 cover star.

HA, HA, 

How many goal/s did Ronaldo scored in both legs.

First leg goals

Ronaldo- 0

Messi -1

Second leg goals

Ronaldo-1

Messi -2

You see Messi is Better in Both Legs.

That is apart from Messi's assist.

Happy !!!

Hahaha, who counts goals in two matches for one minor title like the supercopa?

Ronaldo beat messi by a long mile for his second european golden shoe making him the only player to have achieved that feat in two different teams and leagues and scored a record 40 goals in la liga putting him above zarra and hugo sanchez in the history books, where was messi the whole season and you sit there making a judgement based on goals for something that's not even considered a tournament?

Okay, let's see messi's goals in the major tournament in football.

World Cup:

Ronaldo-1 goal ( was ousted by a lone goal by the world champions in the round of 16)

Messi -0 goals,  (was ousted by a 4-0 thrashing  in the quarterfinals)

Copa America:

Messi-0 goals, could only shine against a sub-22 division costa rica team and was later ousted by uruguay.

By this time last month, while messi was thrashed out of the copa america, ronaldo was shining against LA GALAXY.

^^So, you think scoring a fluke of a goal makes him better than ronaldo who had more shots on goal and was everywhere throughout the match?
Most of the time he was up front defending while messi was on the other side of the pitch wandering off aimlessly. . .

One of his shots were so powerful, it almost ripped through valdes' hands.

Someone even asked me if messi was one the bench and believe me, it was her first time she had ever watched a madrid vs barcelona match, that just tells you how absent he was from the pitch.

Face it, ronaldo was better but messi was luckier!

Messi three goals a fluke?

emmatok:


Lol, you joking en.

Messi three goals a fluke?

I rest my case.
