But how then are you sure the sickness was non-existent? Lucho's policy with injured players has always been that, even in off-days, you would be mandated to train alone at the Cuitat. And Messi did just that yesterday being Tuesday. He went to the Esportiva and trained there alone. Does that not prove to an extent that he wasn't really alright the previous day as he claimed?

My point? Don't run into some unnecessary
conclusions here. You don't know for sure if it really hampered him or not. So I'd rather you don't take a shot in the dark.

Thanks bro! And if almost everyone is not happy with the way the coach manages the team, who then says the players are exempted?

Johnpaul88:
I'll be really disappointed in Messi if all I hear of him about a possible revolt against Enrique all because he sat him down on the bench in a match we later lost, is afterall a truth. I'll say he's disobedient because he's got to respect the decisions of the boss. This night Ronaldo is going to sit on the bench against Atletico-yes Atletico- and all hell won't be let lose. It's not as if Messi was singled out and benched. Neymar and Alves all sat on the bench. I know he's special but a lot of people look up to him for good manners.

And how are you sure that Lucho with all his strong head and high mindedness is not the one causing the rift? It couldn't have just started on that night. I no trust that our oga at all. Every coach respects and treats his star player with care. If the club is to choose between The coach and her best player......

honeric01:
Maybe he's working on a better 11 for us that can't be easily predicted? i can't really say all his decisions have been right but blaming him for using something different to solve an old problem to me is not fair. i also do not like the fact that he has used 17 different 11 so far, not holding brief for him on that. only vocal about our last game.

Let's see it this way, if he had prosecuted the match with his strongest line up (which is yet to be known after over 25 matches) and lost, the questions would have been different. I don't have any issue resting any player as long as there is a reasonable reason for it. But starting Munir who has been under performing over Neymar in a game of such magnitude all in the name of finding solutions to an old problem is not acceptable. What if the players are injured? But they were not! Fans complain because of some poor decisions he has made so far which are not helping us. Can you imagine Mathiue playing as RB against RM? And yet,he had no justification for it. Coaches make mistakes and takes responsibility for them, but our oga never sees anything wrong in all his decisions. Fans have the right to shout bro.

honeric01:
Why should doing something new to solve an old problem be seen as a mistake?

Bro, I have been reading all the posts about Lucho and your support for him. You have your points and views too. But, please why has he used different 17 line ups in 17 games? Why has he never for once admitted he made a mistake? Why the so much trust in a certain Munir when he's not delivering? Why why and why?

honeric01:
And when he put all the big names in the second half, why didn't they do the magic they have been doing in 3 years or so on this same ground? reason I comment less on this thread is because of the excess sentimental comments from my fellow guys. what makes you think they would have won if they started just as they have been starting for 3 years now?

Because they didn't play as they used to in those years!

honeric01:
yup because I do think want to give room to sentiments.. we have been losing there with our best players, so no harm in trying something different.. it just didn't work.. alot never expected a win before so why the surprise? winning there would have been unusual. Btw, what should Alba get for scoring 2 own goals in 4 matches?

They dint play any special game today, hence, we could have won with our best legs!

honeric01:
Like we won with all our best legs there before.. Even when they were younger and fresher. count it as one of the formulas that didnt work out.

Bro! I have always been silent when debate comes up as regards Lucho, but common, he messed up tonight. So Munir is the player to tweak the team with? Benching all your good legs on a land where you hardly get results is the best way to get one? He gambled again bro, and he has to dance to the music himself.

The coach gambled with the line up, but it may eventually work out well. My fear is the early goal conceded. Messi and Neymar will eventually wreck the havoc if they can just maintain the game at a goal down.

Leo Messi's heroics now live on SS5.

Johnpaul88:
And to hear him say that the thought of leaving Barcelona right back position thin if he leaves doesn't concern him, is utterly irresponsible and a reckless statement to have said. He's apparently not bothered that Barcelona have been suspended in the transfer market. All he cares about is his welfare. I'm pushed to call him a gold digger but then he's still that foul mouthed Alves.

You don vex!

Chai! a whole Chelsea concede 5 against Tottenham. Mmm, na wa oooooo. On the first day of 2015. Na die them dey be that.

Let's wait and see who he blames the loss on. Last time, it was the ball boys. May it's the fans this time. I can't laugh ooooooo.

You are supposed to be scared of Matic and Robben

C. Ronaldo will make you resign.

U make me laugh baje
You don gforget say baba Puyil dey my defence? How CRZ wan do am? He started having nice game against Barca when Puyol lost his legs don't forget. With Xavi in the middle of the park, Matic can't even get near the ball!

Iaz93:
Noo! Your team can't.

The worst that'll happen is for mine to score less than 5 goals. Mine is just toooooo fortified.

Hehehehehe in my team are two kings of futie; Leo and Dinho. The deadliest striker ever; real Ronaldo. The greatest passmasters; Xavi and Deco and the baddest defenders. I only fear Messi and Pirlo in your team jere.

The real Ronaldo of course! U expect make I include a diver in my team? Check my team out, ther ain't any of such there bro!

One of the best midfielders of all-time a Grass Cutter? I give up! Even the Holy Spirit would find it difficult in enlightening you Penaldo fanboys. #Fact.

I never expected you to be involved in any argument as this! If nobody answers them, them go find another topic talk. Xavi is simply untouchable. Merry xmas bro!

As in eh

To me that's his best goal of 2014.

Agreed!

[quote author=barackohandso post=29094166]Compliments of the season to all my fellow Barcelona fans. Nice victory to end the year with, hopefully we maintain the tempo in 2015, have a successful year in 2015 on and off the pitch, a 2015 with no scandals, and a success in our personal lives too

A disrespectful person...

A sense of immaturity of the highest degree.

dmcdad:
What is with Messi scoring wuth his weaker foot these days? 11goals with his right foot and 10 goals with his left. Mmmm....

He wants to show the critics that he can use both legs as against what they have always claimed. The king does what ever he likes!

Baddestguyp:
pls point out the match in which messi dived

You dey mind than man? I no too sure say hm dey watch Messi game self.
