Pique looks fucked, he keeps having to take breathers. 4!

[Red Soul]

I got 3 to one at Corals today for a Barcalona win.They have been bummed senseless tonight.

[bossy]

So why did they buy fabregas?

[kalasoma]

OOF. 4-0. I like Alaba a lot. I think if he had not been suspended for last year's final, he would have made the difference.

[Josef Svejk]

A team that plays with such a shit defence deserves to get bummed. They've had it coming for way too long.

[Red Soul]

I think the bookies were tipped off that there would be a paddling pool in the centre of the pitch.

[Gym Beglin]

Barca need Suarez, dont they.

To be fair they generally dont need their defence to be that good do they.

[Red Soul]

Barca need Suarez, dont they.

 

Stop it.

[Code]

Barca need Suarez, dont they.

 

Not as much as we need Heynckes.

[fowler9]

yeah so any tiny chance that we had of getting Muller that I mentioned in the transfer thread earlier today has definately gone....

[Paulie Dangerously]

Im awaiting the army of football hipsters on here who've been tipping Bayern all year and watch the Bundesliga religiously regardless of what PL game is on

[Gym Beglin]

So why did they buy fabregas?

 

I think Fabregas lent them the money to buy him.

 

They had enough chances to buy him, two years in a row they decided he wasnt what they needed. By the third year I think that the lad was going to self-harm if he didnt get to join them. I really dont think they care that much about him.

[Redder Lurtz]

He could have killed Robben, throwing the ball at him like that.

[kalasoma]

To be fair though, I'd want to throw a ball hard at Robben's face as well.

[Section_31]

Barca need Suarez, dont they.

 

I'd say they need more an Andy Carroll figure, if Andy Carroll was good.

[xerxes]

Perhaps we could try to be like Bayern instead of Barca?

[Redder Lurtz]

To be fair though, I'd want to throw a ball hard at Robben's face as well.

 

I'd sooner use his face as a football. Pleased Bayern are going to knock Barca out but I fucking detest Robben.

[Red Soul]

Perhaps we could try to be like Bayern instead of Barca?

 

Alternatively we could just try to be like ourselves.Controversial but worth a shot.

[Gym Beglin]

Bayern remind me of us, circa 2009.

If only we had a Robben-esque figure, we'd have bummed Europe senseless.

[Red Soul]

I'd sooner use his face as a football. Pleased Bayern are going to knock Barca out but I fucking detest Robben.

 

Whys that Lurtz?.

[Gym Beglin]

He hates functionality in pacy players.

[Redder Lurtz]

Whys that Lurtz?.

 

He's greedy, he cheats and dives all over the shop, he's a mouthy cunt too. He was giving the Barca lad loads, got the ball tapped into his face for it and reacted as if he'd been harpooned in the face. Can't stand him. Cracking player of course but utterly detestable.

[Red Soul]

I'd say they need more an Andy Carroll figure, if Andy Carroll was good.

 

Or a footballer.

[Trumo]

Messi's performance remind me of the Brazilian Ronaldo staggering around the pitch in the World Cup final having suffered a fit hours earlier. Barcelona effectively started with 10 men as Messi just wasn't ready, and the ineffectual Pedro and Sanchez meant they lacked any credible attacking outlet. Bayern in contrast were superb. Heynckes has managed to do something that the likes of Mourinho, Capello and Van Gaal struggled to do and that is to get some proper work-rate out of Robben.
