Spanish Football thread

[MasterBlaster76]

Its a irrelevant fact actually. Manure were stuffed at home by Pool, were they not?

Anyways looks like Espanyol are going to survive afterall. Dont know what happened to Los Che after their recent impressive results. I am sure they'll play well against us, and we'll still beat them, just.

Yes, but we're not fudging around trying to make excuses. We had chances, yes, but we didn't take them and that's what football is about at the end of the day. On the day, they were the better team and deserved that victory.

I have never made excuses for that game. We were well and truly beaten.

You can't admit that Barca have a better team than you though?

 

[m_vaughan]

On that day....yes, this season....yes.

 

[PhilD123]

Finally an admission. You have denied this in the past.

Now all we have to do is persuade you how much of a joke club Real Madrid are.

 

[evertonfan]

Madrid are a joke.

To be fair, Matthew Roberr, Madrid are a top, top team because they're the only team who could lose 6-2 but still...well...actually...they're crap.

Hmmm, so you are saying when and if Everton and Arsenal win 9 European cups and 31 domestic titles, they would still just become a joke. Just realised, that applies to almost every other club.

Atleast Arsenal have a better head to head.

Barca has a +72 goal difference thats great, but GD dont matter rite in La Liga..

Yes, if two teams finish level on points, the head to head is taken into account first.

Seems like Guti and Sneijder are out for the weekend's game as well. Despite last weekend's 3-0 defeat, Valencia are always a tough opposition to play, especially at the Mestalla. Given the fact they are fighting for CL qualification, will make them go for the win even more.

I want a positive response from Madrid, just like we did in the first half of the season after losing the first Clasico.

 

[m_vaughan]

These neverending Perez and who all he will sign stories are getting annoying. There is a bloody game on Saturday, and a tough one too. But then I am sure the all important players will be focusing on that.

 

[PhilD123]

Valencia beating Madrid 3-0. Happy days.

 

[m_vaughan]

Well we looked lost from the start. Seems like some of the players have just not recovered from last weekend. But all said and done, you have to give credit to Valencia. This was probably their best performance this season, and I think they are too good to be not playing in the Champions League, so I hope they do finish in the top four and represent La Liga in the CL next season.

Also I think Lass' absence in midfield was strongly felt today. Javi Garcia is not the same kind of player, and is similar to Gago.

Barcelona can win it tomorrow, but I hope Villarreal can make them wait a little longer.

Looks like Villarreal have made them wait a little longer. What a comeback.

We will win our title back next season:banana2
