That's a pretty scary system Barca is now capable of deploying. With their possession (75% in this game), they don't really need a bunch of true defenders... imagine this group with Villa in for Pedro and Xavi for Alcantara.


Man U beat Arsenal 8-2 Arsenal finished 4th last season.. Man City beat Tottenham 5-1 they finished 3rd and 5th respectively..

flawed logic..

not saying the SPL isnt a 2 horse race, it is and probably will be for a while..but its just a matter of teams that can spend vs teams that cant spend at the moment.. to a large extent and frankly Barca and Real are probably a cut above the top tier english teams aswell theyre just that good its not so much the fault of spanish teams for being poor as it is Barca and Real just being ridiculous at the moment..

Man United is really the only team in europe at the moment it seems (maybe maybe Man City they need to still play a bit more) that can really give them a real hardcore go and prove they are at the same level..

Btw these past years Madrid has been selling his players to spanish teams with a contract clause that says they can't play against Madrid. Is this even legal in other leagues? Because it should not be anywhere.
Hipothetically, following this trend, a team could sign every good goalkeeper or even most of the team stars in La Liga, then sell them again with this kind of contract and win ezpz.

iirc this also happens in epl, for example in recent man city vs tottenham game ( 5:1) adebayor couldnt play because he came from man city to tottenham

It's only when loaning a player not when selling, you can't put that clause when selling a player.
LoL EuW: Zhiroo - By starting this squabble you've proven nothing but how vast your stupidity is.

Apparently this is just an offer. Bayern officials say they won't consider selling him for less than 40 million € (~25 million pounds, I think?)

As much as I love Arsenal, I have decided to boycott the team until Wenger is gone. This transfer window has been very unappealing for me. Their style of play is beautiful, so I guess I will cheer for Manchester United now, same style except they kick the ball instead of passing it 4 times in the box.

Bayern do not need the money, they would not sell him for 40 million € if they don't have a good substitute.
And Dortmund won't sell Götze yet, I am sure Arsenal would have been interested.

Ya, this doesn't make sense at all.
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.

I had a dream last night (for serious) that Mertesacker was playing with us in a game in my backyard on my team and we kept having horrible mess-ups and miscommunications for goals against us.
A portent?
Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man

Mertesacker used to be considered world class after WC 06
