But it's just not how it is for me. Barcelona's diving has turned me off the team to such a degree that I dislike them more than real madrid, even though it should be the other way around by every other criteria. Granted I don't watch regular la liga matches, I mostly just watch spanish teams in the CL. But in the CL, no team, and I mean no team, has to me looked less sportsmanlike than Barcelona. Maybe they don't have to be that way in la liga when they're not playing vs real madrid because they just don't have to be, but there's no nobility in honesty when you're winning 3-0 anyway. Also busquets is guilty of like 70% of all the ridiculousness I've hated. And to be absolutely honest it might just be that I'm annoyed because I never see real madrid fans whining about barcelona but I see barcelona fans whining about real madrid all the time where they are in my eyes at least equally bad. :p | ||

Barcelona so lethargic, just passing and walking around. Fortunately for them Almeria has no offensive assets whatsoever. But watching this is tedious; Atletico vs Real was a much better show, even if you count all unfair-flay shenanigans. | ||

Turkey National Team's total value is just 15-20m behind teams like Netherlands and Colombia. And It's higher than teams like Serbia, Ivory Coast, Switzerland and goes on. You can't imagine how sad it is. We are not sure if we can qualify for Euro 2016 lol. | ||

I think a lot of it might be influenced by the media and Mourinho and exaggerated that way. I'm sure that didn't support your opinion though, but unconciously it's easy to agree with the public opinion, even if it is wrong. I agree with Busquets being a diving sissy 4 years ago, especially with the famous peakaboo incident, but the last couple of years I haven't seen Busquets dive once, and I've seen a lot of Barça games (60-70%). Same with guys like Pedro and Dani Alves (Alves maybe once or twice). Thing is, whenever I watch Barça play anyone other than Madrid, it always seems very sportsmanlike to me. For example, the CL match against Ajax at the Arena was one of the most friendly matches I've seen, even though it was an important game. Whenever someone was injured on either team, the ball was instantly shot over the sideline and then given back to where they shot it across, not with a long ball back to the goalkeeper. No irritation whatsoever. Of course they have some connections through Cruijff and working together somewhat the last couple of years, but still. Other than that, maybe 3-4 years ago Barça was kind of unsportsmanlike (way exaggerated to me though the way you said it), but the last few years I think they have definitely cleaned up a lot of that behaviour. Amazing goal, thanks for posting | ||

That's a really nice goal. @Steveling Too bad about Olympiacos, I'm guessing all the PAO fans are saying they are better than Man united now | ||

Our coach played the same players as the man.u game, they didn't want to win this though,their heads are already at manchester. They must qualify in CL after that hilarious performance today. Panathinaikos isn't even the team they used to be, they are like 5th in greece atm. | ||

Also, in Norway media didn't pay that much attention to Mourinho during Real years, we just don't care about La Liga. My opinion is like 95% based around CL and other than that I've only watched highlights and a couple classicos. Maybe I've been really unlucky with the matches I've seen, but at the very least there's nothing that justifies any type of fair-play self-aggrandizement from Barcelona.. | ||
