Thiago Silva, why are you asking?

 

[vB9]

Hahaha oh my God... how good is messi?

 

[Xudong]

[sammyvine]

Serves Mourinho right though with his big mouth.

Not you, so settle down.

Brilliant goal by Messi. Two things though:

1. There wasn't a serious challenge from Madrid's pathetic defence

2. I wish he would do stuff like that more often.

Barcelona surround the referee quicker than any team since Man Utd. about 10 years ago. Lobbying him on behalf of UNICEF, presumably.

Andy Derso was the ref...gave a penalty when Jaap Stam won the ball in the area. Keane went fucking crazy

Chelsea of a few years ago were just as bad as this Barca.

Messi will pass Raul as top Champions league scorer

 

[Pedro]

Great, now both returns are useless. Even worse than yesterday; this game was the lamest and most boring game ever (until the red card).

 

[Forza Milano]

He is just to good, imagine if we had him lol

and by ''he'' im sure you know who i mean

 

[Casualista]

LOOOOOOOOOOOL. Finally some action. Messi just owned madrid.

 

[Forza Milano]

Messi will pass Raul as top Champions league scorer

Not before pippo passes him

Thiago Silva, why are you asking?

Actually, I am curious how well is TS going to handle him in the CL finals 2012

 

[Ashish]

Puyol is the richest man on that field ronaldo who is worth 95 million is in his back pocket

 

[Calum1903]

Anyway, a fit Buffon is the best player in the world.

You don't need to wait till then, Copa America is sooner.

 

[Serno91]

Barce win, Madrid down.

 

[ZBoban]

I'm happy because I do not want to see Madrid's football be rewarded. I hate to see these teams with 20% possession win games because they are afraid to go forward. I realize Mourinho cannot play Barca's game because Real would be exposed, but I really hate to see teams that park the bus for 90% of the game and hope to score on the counter and win. So good for Barca!

Your posts are so interesting, MB.

With the right partners in attack and full force support from a creatiive midfield, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the best player in the world. A player needs to find his perfect surroundings. Messi has done so in Barca.

Yess, you are rigth, but I don't care about that

 

[MilanMB]

Haha they're playing the Hala Madrid song.

 

[manutd fan]

Barcelona/United will be a boring final,because it will basically be them passing the ball around us for 90 minutes.

 

[laxman]

ah well.. guardiola's supposed "cracking" didn't happen i guess... hilarious that madrid fans to expect something when they just turn up to try and be anti-barca rather than play their game.. 25% possession is useless.. most of it is probably among defenders

 

[Charbel]

There are 3 teams in the world that can beat Barca in a CL final, I'm afraid Man utd isn't one of them.

 

[Fiero]

FC Barcelona for diving and theatrics have won by Guardiola's tactics on the ref.

So good for Barca!

Why does a team need to have 80% possession if they can create just as many chances with 20%? Is there an ethical obligation to have possession?

Personally, I find fast counter-attacks more exciting than 20 minutes of sideways passing.
