Lol, di maria is a funny character, joao pereira is a **** though.

Iirc, this is something like Mourinho's 23rd and 24th red cards as Madrid boss. That's ridiculous. :rofl2:

I bet at least 4 of them have been from classicos.

I remember one match against espanyol/getafe and casillas got sent off. Real madrid scored one goal from marcelo and got 5 defenders on the pitch. :rofl:

Referee was ridiculous tonight, happy madrid went through, hopefully 3 el classicos in the next few weeks!

That I don't doubt. Who created this aberration?

It's an Al-Jazeera advert from what I understand.

Llorente joins Juventus in the summer on a FREE. I can't believe Bilbao didn't try to sell him earlier and get a fee that could have gone to helping producing more Basque players in the area etc. I know Bilbao were keen to keep him even if he went on a free but doesn't make sense when it's inevitable he's going to leave that they wouldn't want to cash in.

Very unfortunate. :sadnod:

Hope he recovers well and swiftly!

It'll be interesting to see how Adan copes with an extended run. :holmes:

They don't need the money and they were doing it as a point of principle.

Barcelona's fourth goal was just magnificent. So much talent.

Gerard Pique's son was born the other day. Who was in Barcelona 9 months ago? John Terry. Coincidence.

Anyway back to the footballing topics, I was watching Real Madrid the other day, batter Valencia 5-0 but they're not going to retain their league crown. Barca are running away with it and I can't see Athletico catching up.

And finished off with a Messi header. :coma:

Which, of course, was the perfect ending to that move. Watching Barcelona has redefined watching football as an aesthetic experience. The cohesion and understanding with which they play defines belief at times - look at Iniesta's goal as well.
