Excellent first half: intense, exciting, with chances for both sides. Credit for Athletic for marking our midfield so well.

Fabregas 1-1.

There goes Valdes' clean sheet.
Goal! 1-0. Ander Herrera. Bilbao in front.

Against Inter, Pique playing up front, did in less than 30 minutes what Ibra couldn't do in close to 180 minutes of play.
Ibra was why we lost that game.

In other news: Bojan scored his third goal of the season for Roma last night against Novara. He has scored in back to back games.

Di Maria playing some gorgeous football I must confess. 3 assits

Goooooal!!! Ibrahima
1-1. Game on

Nice of the Madrid players to show their solidarity for Cassano.

What about that goal by Silva. Silva is best player in the EPL, shikena!

MeGaStReEt:
Did you watch the game? I mean Blackburn Rover Vs Chelsea that was played today 5th of Nov.

I'd take that as you having nothing to say.

^^ WHat has the goal got to do with Torres?

Ivanovic crossed, lampard headed.

Petr Cech had more to do with that goal than Torres did.

Torres has proven that he is a failure. ever since Torres came back Chelsea has been back to struggling mode as against their effortless wins when he was away

Even before Torres came back Chelsea were struggling. They lost to QPR. Why senor Torres is being the fall guy, I don't know.

Zeddicus:
Then FT was worst!!!! With those two as our main striking force, we will be lucky to finish in the top three. Funny thing is,our fixture list in the next month is even scarier than ever,and we have already lost 3! Fingers crossed nervously.

Sturridge was the worst player on the pitch. The move that led to that Torres miss was started by Torres and had Sturridge made a good run, Torres woulda played him through.
Sturridge was slowing down the pace of the game which led to Chelsea's attack being broken down time and again.
Do you think it was by chance that Chelsea scored after Torres came on.

Sturridge was worse.

Yakubu wanna fight Mikel

Definitely a tough match. Bielsa is fast transforming Athletic into a beastly side. They're unbeaten in 9 games in all competitions and they've had wins against moneybags PSG and Atletico Madrid.
Their front four of Muniain, Susaeta, Ander and Llorente is very fearsome.
I expect a Barca win but it would be hard fought.

^^Levante hasn't met Barca this season but they did beat Madrid and they drew Barca last season.
La Liga is the best league in the world. The 5th and 6th placed teams in Spain will probably win the league in England.
What was the EPL before the Glazers, Abrahamovic, Hicks and Gillet, Sheikh Mansour and now the Red Sox fellas?

La Liga is definitely the best league in Europe.

Manhattan - Kings of Leon.
My favourite track from the Only By The Night album and one of my best ever KOL songs. KOL are a gift to music lovers.

Our U-19 team(the Juvenil A, basically) thrashed Man City 4-1 in the nextgen series(U-19 Champions League). We're through to the next round. We've only lost one match so far - 4-2 against Marseille in the last matchday.

Meanwhile, Ibra talked shyte about Pep and the team in his autobiography. Pathetic fella. I'm so glad we got rid of him.

Hayden Panettiere - Try

Jude Aneke has broken Ahmed Musa's record of most goals scored in a season. He scored a hat trick as Kaduna United thrashed Tornadoes 3-1 to put his tally this season at 20 goals.

Ronaldo scores from a freekick just outside of the penalty box.
His first freekick goal of the season from about 1000 attempts.
Nothing special about goal. The distance was just a little over 6 yards.

Last night was also Pep's 200th game as Barca coach and Messi's 4th goal was Barca's 500th under Pep.
Messi's first goal was his 200th for Barca. Messi's record stands at 202 goals in 286 matches.
Really a night of records, last night.

Another clean sheet. Our 9th consecutive game without conceding.
Valdes has now gone 877 minutes without conceding a goal - a new Barca record - breaking Miguel Reina's(Pepe Reina's father) record set in 1973.

Cuenca WILL be great! Watch this space.

This lads crossing is ridiculous, so accurate. He always finds a dangerous area with his final ball, and his quick feet means he beats the full back 9/10. Very exciting prospect.

Whoa! What a goal. Messi 4-0. Wonderful backheel from Pique to set up the goal.
Back to back hat-tricks for Messi.
Messi is the best.

Cuenca is just unbelevable. He's only 20. Great to see Sanchez back in action.

GOOOOOOALLLL!!! Fabregas 3-0. Cuenca with the assist.

Wow! You just can't stop Messi.
2-0

^^The fastest goal in CL history is on 10 sec - Roy Makaay(Bayern Munich) vs Real Madrid, 2007.
As for Jonas' aforementioned goal, the commentators just said its unofficial timing stands at 10 seconds.

Gooooal! Messi scores from the spot. Another milestone for the best player in the world. His 200th goal for Barcelona.

Valencia 1-0 up vs Leverkusen. Jonas on 16 seconds. That has got to be the 2nd fastest CL goal in history.

Barca starting XI: Valdes, Alves, Piqué, Puyol, Abidal, Busquets, Thiago, Cesc, Adriano, Cuenca and Messi.

Sanchez might make his return in tonight's game vs Plzen.

Barca B defeated Nastic 1-0 yesterday. That's three wins on the trot for Eusebio's boys.

Bojan also scored for Roma but they lost 2-3 to Milan.

Back with a smashing win; a Manita. What a way to respond after our disappointing performances in the last three games. Messi with a hat-trick, his third of the season, after not scoring in his last three games. Don't know why he wasn't rested, perhaps, he won't play in midweek.
Good to see Xavi, Iniesta and Cesc rested and Puyi and Pique make a comeback.
I'm really delighted with Cuenca. I think he's ripe for first team football and I think we are gonna see him more often with alot of our attackers out injured. He's got good delivery and can stretch the opposition's defence. He made our second goal and capped a great performance with a goal.
Gerard Deulofeu is another youngster to watch out for. La Masia coaches say he's the next Messi.
Our defence has become impregnable. We've gone 9 games without conceding a goal.
