[quote author=onuwaje post=34527462]Maybe he wants to open a fishing company after retirement [/quote


Fishing perhaps. He and his wife bought a beach house of recent. Catalunyas have a penchant for fishing tho

Back and still reeling the moment. Plenty thanks to the treble success! And need I mention I won N5k for predicting the score line and another N2k for getting the scorers rightly predicted.

My take:
1. I must commend Lucho for the feat achieved. He deserves much respect than I ever gave. This doesn't take away my not so warm dislike for him or prevent me from criticising him when the occasion demands it.
2. The team controlled the game from start to finish and rightly took the lead when they did. That's the pragmatic team Lucho has succesfuly built.
3. Ter Stegen was great in his role yesterday. Very commanding on the back and assuring on and off the ball. Hope he is switched to the league games next season.
4. D. Alves was at his marauding best. 5 European cups no be beans. He deserves 2 years renewal, but M. Montoya should play regularly next season.
5. G. Pique? Thanks Shakira, for whatever you denied him that brought his vintage self back. We're grateful ma!
6. J. Mascherano started shaky. He got his groove started after the boots change. No try am again o.
7. J. Alba... A shaky start and responsible for the goal conceded. Did well as always going forward.
8. S. Busquets always the unsung hero. Wish we can appreciate him more.
9. A. Iniesta the don had a great game. Rightly deserving of the MOM. 3 assists in 3 UCL finals no be beans o.
10. I. Rakitic? Where are those Nairaland Cules again? Hope una watch the match o. He's what we'd never get from lazy Cesc for a decade.
11. Neymar Jnr,... More to come from the young man. The 1st goal from him should have stood. He raped S. Lichsteiner over and over.
12. L. Suarez justifying the huge sum we coughed on him every passing day. Great buy!
13. God-Messi? Tuale baba!!!
14. Xavi... Goodbye legend!
15. Pedro... Good to have him renew. Quality on the bench is great.
16. J. Mathieu hardly touched the ball. Good addition to the team. Thanks Zubi!
17. Sad to such greats like A. Pirlo and G. Buffon on the losing side. Was pained..

Yet a cule here said he should shown the outside door as he brings nothing vital / special to the team.

Sometimes you just wonder...

Thank God, such Cule is nowhere near the Club's board; in whatever capacity.

Interesting piece on the importance of I. Rakitic to the team. I've said it time again, this barca team is built around him.

@Logica and @Nonsoroyalty, please guys enough of the insults and abuses. We're not from the capital, eh! We should savour the moment and look forward to the grand one come next Saturday.

Which stadium did you play Athletico Madrid?

He can't know not unless told to confirm from Google. He wasn't a Mad-rid fan till last season...

dmcdad:
Not really via Sybla. I do make use of Sybla every now and then, but I would watch this at a viewing centre around my vicinity. They air their matches via Bein Sports HD.

Meanwhile, what PayG you talking about? The normal 15naira/5mins or you talking about the PayG cheat?

Yeah, the normal one.

dmcdad:
Yeah... They will show it via Sky Sports. But I would watch mine on Bein HD.

Via Sybla tv right? Which data sub are you using? Now I miss those days of Etisalat payg

Isco is ideal to replace Xavi...

Why Isco when we have Rafinha?

Penaldo scoring goals

Do they matter

Pichichi tinzzz.. You can trust the douchebag to choke on the individual awards.

Cant wait 4 Grimm season 5, Cant believe Trubul killed juliet

Juliette will probably not die just as CAPT Sean Renard was shot at the end of the previous season. The Hexenbiest in her will evade so we can have Juliette as she was before.

She's an important character that can't be killed off by the show writers that easily. More so now that she's a fan favourite.

messi still leads in my opinion even in personal titles

all time liga scorer
his UCL goals are in far fewer matches
4 ballon dor...with the treble and copa America.. number 5

Since moving to Mad-rid I meant..

Ronnie scores to get a hat trick

Let's give him d golden shoe n pichichi

The big ears, laliga n copa will come to Leo...

He's actually won more personal awards than team trophies since moving to Mad-rid... It's so true; the team plays for him.. To fuel his ego. Mad-rid better get rid of him.

It was officially made Messi d'or the moment he won it in 2010.It has lost its credibility since then.He can as well win it all till he retires.

It became Cry d'or the year before, when Tapnaldo was awarded on the back of a trophyless campaign. The ensuing irregularities that greeted the occasion is still very fresh in our memories. But don't worry; the god will reclaim his rightful title come January 2016. I'm sure Tapnaldo wouldn't be in attendance at the gala night as he wont make the final 3. We all know how he sulks when cast off a show.

Krasid:
I just needed a few days to get over what happened.Ronaldo did his best, the team also did their best.Sadly it was not meant to be.I am having this feeling that there might be a surprise in berlin.

Honestly I really wanted the El Clasico final...


Many so called Barca fans are disappointing...


Who doesn't want an El Clasico final?

Copa, fine. Not in the UCL with these current crop of classless Mad-rid players, safe for Marcelo.

A UCL classico finals would be no different from a regular rugby game with Tapnaldo and his lot of losers.

Barca - Juve final!

kradleber:
He's an average coach because he substituted Suarez who had a slight injury? Go sleep

You certainly didn't see through my points.

Johnpaul88:
Really? Humour me more!
Enrique was always in charge even when some glory hunters here and indeed the majority of the media, branded him a mediocre coach because he was trying out a few things when it was still safe to experiment. He knew when he must get everything together and boy, did he get everything together! He even admitted he doesn't read the papers anymore because his wife advised against it on health reasons. I'm so delighted he has made some glory hunters and pointless critics here and in goal.com, to eat the humble pie. Most are just waiting for the slightest mistake to pounce but his cheer courage and will power has silenced them all.

By your position here, you make we fans and pundits who criticise the coach aPpear as "haters" and "unreasonable". We're all passionate About the club and can express that passion in whatever sane way possible. Everybody can't sing praises of the coach every so often, hence, he begins to see himself as a god. This is sports, not science.

Johnpaul88:
Perfectionism in coaching and indeed any other sphere of life, doesn't exist. This is what you have to make up your mind to live with.

My points don't tend towards deriding a perfect coach, but that, Lucho is an average coach who's fortunate with the array of quality players in his squad. Give Lucho a Celta Vigo team and Pep, a Granada team, and let's see the slug. Pep would whip his a55 big time...

Johnpaul88:
Trash!
Would you rather Enrique was superior tactically and we crash out? Sometimes, I wonder how some of us argue here. Enrique achieved our objectives to make UCL final. That should be enough. Do you imagine he would just substitute Suarez if he had no discomfort?
Be happy we made final again and on course to win the treble. Don't be sore!

You bromance with Lucho is well documented so I won't argue with you.

One of, if not the worst game I've seen of barca this season. And let it be known, Lucho would win trophies, but its simply because he has the best players in the world at his disposal. Those players are out to make name for themselves. He should go And learn how to read games from the best; Pep.

Footnote:
1. I said it last week and I'd say it again; Pep is the best coach in the world. Overcoming a 0-3 first leg deficit is a tad difficult but he was tactically superior over 2 legs.

2. Lucho had no answer to Bayern's high line Approach. At the second half, I knew we'd lose the match.

3. L. Suarez substitution at the time it was made was the dumbest decision any coach could make. Why remove a player who gave you 2 first half assists just right into the second half. And the player is your biggest threat on the night!

4. A. Iniesta wasn't in the game. He gave away the ball more times than the ball boys. He had I. Rakitic covering more ground for him. Busquets too lost grip and was outdone by X. Alonso.

5. Bayern played with 5 ball playing men in the middle to Barca's 3 during the second half, why then pit god-Messi as the top 9? Its clear as day he'd not get service from the middle. They have more men to nullify the supposed final balls from the midfield.

6. T. Stegen is not to blame for any of the goals. M. Benatia was unmarked for the first goal. The midfield was nonexistent for the other goals.

dearpreye:
When shall all these redundant and boring Messi Ronaldo superiority arguments stop? Aren't you folks tired of that familiar line of argument?

I implore you guys to forsake that argument, and revel yourself in the Messi Show. It won't last forever.

It would last forever bro. Thanks to technology

dmcdad:
Annoying but, why annoyed when his replacement (Ivan) is poised to give us more trophies in just a season than Fab did in 3 seasons.

Rakitic has given us far more than we ever imagined. Not to mention that he was just a bargain.

I. Rakitic, the perfect upgrade from lazy Cesc. So worthy is he of the famed No.4 jersey that we're on course for every trophy available.

And to imagine he was bought for £15m
