mbulela: I said it earlier and i say it again; the fact that this team won the league shows how poor the EPL really is.
you can count on your fingers the above average games this team had this season.Go ahead and name them?
You aint never lied

Looool sweeping the Lakers without Kobe don't count! All they had was Gasol and Dwight

Golden State has plenty weapons Curry,Lee,Jack,Barnes,Landry,Thompson and Bogut who is becoming stronger and a defensive force too
San Antone would definitely have their hands full and I smell an upset

Its oft said sometimes the easiest solution to a problem is the right one! Could it be perhaps that Barca's dominance has gotten to its terminal point! I mean the key personnel bar Messi is experiencing diminishing returns this is not to say Barca isn't still among the elite but their status as "the best in the world" is very much past its sell-date! Dominance is cyclical so Barca really should focus on rebuilding and retooling

You guys should let KG and Paul Pierce rest! Their time don pass grin grin

The Nets really phucked up losing at home to a Bulls team without Rose and Deng! Fantastic job Thibodeau is doing there! Now if only Derrick Rose can pull his panties up and join the team! Noah has been playing hurt all series long and is one of the biggest reasons they would be advancing

Predictions
East:
Heat vs Bulls: 4-2 (Don't seem like they have enough offensively to cope with the Heat tho I hope I'm wrong)
Knicks vs Pacers: 4-3

West:
OKC vs Grizzlies: 2-4 (Struggled a lot with the Rockets and could easily have lost that series if they played better defense! Without Westbrook I just don't think OKC stands a chance against Z-Bo n Gasol)
Spurs vs Warriors: 3-4 (I see upset potential here as well! I don't see anybody that can actually guard Steph Curry and I just feel the Warriors uptempo style could be too much for San Antone to handle)

ebdib: Tito is just a compound error. The guy is completely Bereft of ideas and doesn't know how to react to changing circumstances in the game.

Look at mourinho's changes in the game against manU. You realize they immediately nani got the red card, he brought on modric who scored.

Compare that to Tito who played without a single change while we were losing 3-0 until the 83rd minute.

If that's not an idealess coach I wonder what is.
Lol peruse wetin ur paddy write below!


Johnpaul88: Have you forgotten that Vilanova was Pep's right hand man for the four years he had with our first team and one year he held with our B team?

There were even some suggestions that Pep owed most of the tactical innovations he used while he held sway as Barca's coach, to Vilanova.

Not taking anything away from Pep, Vilanova's been the tactical genius from which Pep tapped from. He 's shown that already this season he 's been with us as head. We have not lacked in tactical wise this season. It's only been injuries that have consistently disrupted his plans, but he always seems to know what to do.


As for Tito, he 's already proven he can hold his own at the highest level. I regret that his feeble health may force him to prematurely leave football althogether. But i love the guy already and barring another relapse, he may yet surpass whatever Pep may have achieved in Barcelona.

azpekuliar: [size=16pt]Director of Fantasy Football insists his side will win the double this season[/size], as his side sits top of the league table with 4 weeks left...

Rookie manager of Roman Abramovich FC has reiterated his desire to lift this seasons premier league trophy. Fielding questions from journalists alike aboard the Russian tycoons' yacht in Ozoro, Isoko LGA yesterday, he took a swipe at the league's veteran managers who dismissed his side's chances of clinching silverware earlier on in the season.

"Where are all the big-mouth veterans mouthing about the number of years they have stayed in the division?"

"They chose to play their matches on the pages of internet forums & newspapers while we calmly went about our job".

"I mean a particular manager, even drew up a list of the league's final top 10 places in August! How pathetic!!"

"I quickly galvanized the team and made sure I ended his season the following month.."

"Our position on top of the league table is a testament to the determination & handwork put in by the board and backroom staff to humiliate these so-called veteran managers".

"We are proud of what we have achieved and hope that our exploits this season would serve as a stark reminder that veteran rascality & bullying in the league would hence forth be vehemently resisted by all rookie managers"

When pressed to speak on the chances of rival Manager, Sun of a Beach tipping his team to the title. He screamed sarcastically.

" Oturogbeke! What chances have Stoke City of finishing inside the Top 4? He is welcome to join our title celebrations next week!"

On his chances of winning the double. "We will take our matches in the Carling cup one at a time. We play Dapmosef FC tomorrow and we would be fielding a reserve team for that match. We have very great lads like, Emeka Vladimir, Tokunboh Vyacheslav, Ahmadu Stanislov, Aloyoshenka Erezi & Uzezi Khordovosky coming through the academy. We confident they can take the full 3-points come match day"

Meanwhile reports in Siberia have revealed that Charmokazzy Pornstars have emerged as a serious threat to Ipukulu Marines’s hopes of luring the Director Fantasy Football to the St. Larry Flynt's Park at the end of the season.

With time running out for Joseph Kony, following another dismal campaign and claims of dressing room unrest, Club chairman, Lexington Steel has made the Director of Fantasy Football their top target and believe they have a better chance than Ipukulu Marines of enticing him to St. Larry Flynt's Park, Siberia.

toba: No qualms. It doesn't really matter. The deed is done. we have a classico final.

Bayern would probably field a strong side tomorrow with Gomez taking the striking position
Robben,Schweini,Ribery,Lahm,Muller would most likely get the day off

Wonder what the lineup would be tomorrow for the "Real Clasico"

toba: Well, we cant say with 100% certainty that Pep had an input or otherwise. The talk was based on How bayern over powered Barca in both legs, which no team had be able to do at least since 2009. Even Mourinho and RDM both played defensive in beating Barca in the previous semis. The present RM team is yet to do a double on Barca like bayern did.

Fine Jupp heynckes is old and very experienced, coupled with Messi's absence, however one cannot rule out a chip in/advisory contribution from PEP to Sammer i.e 'your're playing my former team, u may do this to gain advantage' Not 100% authoritative, neither is it not 100% false.

At a point Jurgen klopp hammered on the fact that Matthias Sammer will seek the wisdom of Pep Guardiola after the Bavarians were drawn against Barcelona in the semifinals of the Champions League

klopp said this '“I’ll bet my a*** that Matthias Sammer and Pep Guardiola will speak on the phone.” Maybe Sammer actually called him for something else and Pep gave an ordinary advice to the team

Honestly if he did or did not, i careless since we made it and im so so happy that German football is on the rise, i just want us to debate it whether its plausible or not by critically looking at all scenarios. you may opine differently

cheers
I don't think Pep would betray his team in that manner! Barca has been his life and he would always be loved and welcomed there I fail to why he would do that knowing fully well that Bayern would not spare him if results didn't go his way!
I don't believe you are even taking Jurgen Klopp's opinion on this! When has he ever had anything sensible to say about Bayern? Do you really think Jupp Heynckes would put himself in that position to allow Pep get any credit for any of his success? Messi's presence would not have made any difference! We where well equipped to handle him or did you miss the hatchet job Martinez did on Iniesta that made him vanish for two legs? I told all who cared to listen that this team was on the down! This same Barca that leaked goals for 12 matches straight! They have sacrificed the team concept for Messi and the whole team is suffering for it! Villa,Sanchez,Fabregas and Pedro basically offer no threat to any serious minded defence these days

Whoa! Golden State sealed the deal last night! Bigups to Mark Jackson super announcer,super coach. And the Nets survived! The Bulls would be ruing their inability to close the series! They had two chances. Where on earth is D.Rose? This nigga has been cleared to compete since March! Why on earth doesn't he want to suit up? Even David Lee that we thought was out for the season is back

elampiro: In the whole of the article that is the only thing you saw. Anyway, Carrick is getting better every year. If he can improve on his speed and tackles, he will be the man to rule in the next two or three years. He is great while on the ball, but poor off it. However, this season he has shown that he can also run and chase after strikers. He made and won many crucial tackles. Personally, I will pick Toure ahead of him, but PFA has said he is the best. So he only needs to build on what he has achieved this season to make his mark over the next two or three years left in his career.
He had a decent season I'd admit that much but hey now let's not stretch it! Rule Europe ke?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by A40(m): 9:16pm On May 02, 2013
ddippset: the undertone of your comment is that we were humiliated with a complete squad and we should have no excuses. But that's where you are living in denial. My opinion? Like I said before even with a fully fit messi we would still be beaten though some others may not agree. The fact is that we were humilited, yes. Another fact is that in both legs messi was not fit, yes. But I know you are up to no good by insisting that messi was present in the 4 nil loss. But stop making a fuss out of it, pele, maradona, even zidane were in teams that lost scandalously in their careers. I know it makes you uncomfortable but I have to say it as it is; you beat an injury ravaged barca. If u like understand the grammer.

dayokanu: Only muppets would believe Pep had any inputs.

Peps contract doesnt start till July

And Juup doesnt need any input from anyone to beat any team. The same Juup who won the CL now needs input from Guordiola?
Pep probably was supporting Barca anyway! Should Juup go on and win a treble people would say Pep had a ready made team anyway so he has not proven anything! He truly is in a conundrum because attack-wise its ridiculous how stacked this team is! With everyone fit next season it becomes
like a rubik's cube trying to fit everyone in the team
Though I see Shaqiri and Gotze as maybe long-term replacements for Robben and Ribery! Don't think Gotze is ready for that false-9 position yet also where does Kroos play? Because benching Mandzukic to accommodate false 9 would be unfair IMO I'd also like to see more of Can and maybe Weiser next season
An understudy to Lahm wouldn't be so bad either

Hats off to ninjas like Matthias Sammer for making things click in the background as well!

ddippset: for the love of God messi pulled his hamstring! Do you realiase what a hamstring injury is? I am sure you re really a football head. In a space of over 2 weeks he had to feature in at least 4,5 high profile matches. Now a guy pulls a hamstring and he's playing for hias team. Let's go without sentiments. Despite the fact that he's been playing would you really say messi is fit? If he is not injured, he is rusty. Or am I talking bvllshit? This is not to say we wouldn't have gone out cus it takes 11 but how would it be this bad with a fit messi? As far as our form goes we couldn't beat a valecia or a malaga without messi not to talk of bayern. Those who ve been mad at messi since watching him claim 4 ballon dors cannot live with the fact that messi hasn't been fit. How could a football head not spare a thought that a footballer is actually just recuperating from a hamastring wound after just 10 days out?
Man don't be so sensitive! Wetin I write no warrant this oyinbo repete wey you dey talk for here! I did point out how clueless Barca looked without Messi to one of your compadres against ordinary Levante! The said Messi was also present when yall chopped 4! Personally I think its a disgrace that Barca has become this over reliant on Messi despite spending over 100million euros on Villa,Sanchez and Fabregas

elampiro: How much can we vouch that Bale will sustain his performance for long? Ronaldo is tested and trusted. I prefer Ronaldo to all the players being speculated. Falcao, Lewandowsky, Bale and the rest. But these big shots do not solve our midfield problem. Is SAF going to convert Rooney? Carrick looks set to rule Europe but his lack of pace is a big shortcoming. Can Fletcher regain fitness enuough to complement Carrick. Can SAF get the best out of Cleverly and Anderson? Lastly where do all these speculations leave Nani?

Anyway, summer is at hand and we shall know soon.

Becauase quite frankly I don't see how the word correlates to footbaLl, or do ninjas know how to predict football? Secondly you predicted correctly that barca will not win all of their rem games. Wow, very impressive.
What is the wrong with ninja? Abi na nigga u want make I use?
Yes I did predict and yall argued against that! 1 game into the remaining 6 and I was proven right so why wouldn't I come here to comment! Would you not come here to gloat if yall had won all 6 games?

Johnpaul88: Were we this bad? I don't think so.

When the goals were pouring in, including Robben's beauty, i just sat on the chair wondering if we were this bad or that we didn't want to fight?

I think the latter was the case. Bayern are a great team, but they did'nt do anything special to beat us, just the customary method others use.

.
Loool you this ninja again! You nor dey hear word! Abeg bow down to a team that's greater than you and stop yarning this megedefegede! Yall didn't create a clear chance over two legs scored no goals! and you are yarning customary method no be only custom na immigration grin grin

RuuDie: Disappointing...Tito Vilanova may just have jeopardized all the good work he has done this season in just this one game. Why say one thing and then act otherwise!? If he'd given up, why not just get the B-side to play the entire game?

Eighty-thousand plus packed into the Nou camp, over seventy-odd thousand of 'em Cule faithfuls, Catalans to the core --- if they didn't have an iota of belief, would they be in there singing themselves hoarse? The least required of 'em was to put up "a fight" a'la Real Madrid.

Managers have been fired for far less, I reckon Tito will be spared but that was very immature of him - make up your mind if you're going all out for it or giving up without a try - not stuck in between like a deer caught in cars headlights.

I have never been more disappointed in FC Barcelona my whole life.
Hehehehe why didn't you take up my bet? Final dey there too! If u ready!

I don't need Pep to tell me how to beat Barca not to talk of someone like Juup who has been coaching for decades and also coached in Spain too! I remember telling Johnpaul that Barca was at its most vulnerable and Bayern could not have drawn them at a better time! They have completely abandoned the team concept and gone for Messi's individual glory. How can one player score almost 60 goals before May? While his fellow strikers combined have not scored half! That we would win was not in doubt though I didn't expect 7-0

No one tells Abramovic what to do. Not even JM. Especially as we've been down this road before. JM may not be a yes man but all the tussle for power at Chelsea will render him powerless. This is why I think, amongst many other things, JM will not come.

If JM does comes, it will be the same thing over. We'll win the league first year, he'll fall out with some of his players and the media in the second year and eventually RA in his third. And we are back to exactly where we now.
No mind Ibime! Whether na Mourinho go employ himself I no know

Ibime: How else do you describe a ninja who did not know how much the club was paying for Javi Martinez or even if he wanted him?

A ninja who agreed to keep quiet and pretend like he is retiring at season's end for Pep to take over, only to come out few weeks later and tell us that is not the case.

We all know Hoeness and co call all the transfers at Bayern and Heynckes is happy just to coach.

We need a ninja like Mourinho that won't let Abramovic ride roughshod. Heynckes does not have the gumption to oppose a ninja like Abramovic and Emenalo foistering unbalanced teams on him. Only two men can call the shots at Chelsea - Pep and JM. Every other ninja will get run over, vetoed and disregarded by the fools in suits
Heynckes a yes-man? You better go and look up his history! Little do you know he even coached the team that Martinez was bought from
A manager doesn't need to know how much a player was bought! There is division of labor in the BL so that is not even his brief
If he didn't want Martinez would ride the bench! I repeat go and look up Juup Heynckes's history! Not even RA can dictate shyte to him! He would walk out on yall! Chelsea no be Bayern or Madrid mate and those are the teams on his CV! Dude is too old to take BS from anyone
Pep's case is different! He actually was going to retire
