If anything he’d do better in City as it is than he would at Barcelona, they’re a more complete, well-drilled side. At Barca of the last few years he’s been covering a ton of systemic holes by virtue of his brilliance. Even if he slows down a bit he’ll be able to play deeper and I can see him do that in the last years of his career. | ||

And there is absolutely no way this match at Millwall should go ahead today. | ||

Serie A is getting spicy, after Juventus lost to Verona Lazio have caught up. 3 teams within 1 point at the top. Inter v Lazio next match, Inter v Juventus in 3 games. Leipzig and Bayern drew 0-0, Dortmund lost though. Gladbach had their game cancelled due to the winds. Still bugger all between the top 4 in the Bundesliga. Tangent, I always felt that Victor Moses was underrated. He never really seemed to have the trust of his managers either while at Chelsea, on loan at Liverpool/Stoke. Was always restricted to cameos in the last 10 minutes and the only full season he had starting nearly every game Chelsea won the league. | ||

Would be daft for him to come to the toughest league in the world at 33 against the big tough premier league defenders who would be so physical with him week in and week out. 24 goals vs English teams in 30 matches Messi has great numbers against Premier League sides. With two goals from outside the area versus United, Messi now has 24 total against English teams: Arsenal (9), Manchester City (6), Manchester United (4), Chelsea (3) and Tottenham (2). Source: www.fcbarcelona.com 18.04.2019 Don't think he cares too much for big scary defenders TBH | ||

In the PL defenders are allowed to be rougher than in the CL... And also the refs are worse so you get fouled a lot more often. Just look how much guardiola has changed? In his first season he was naive and played Spanish football. Then he adapted and city are masters of fouling and roughing up play | ||

It’s exciting to have some good European races, not a bad time to be an Inter fan too. I think Moses is one of those relatively unlucky players, for whatever reasons that may be. Can’t remember hearing tales of him having a bad attitude or whatever in the past. He just seems to have blossomed most as a wing back in a back 3/5 and shown his best form there. Not many teams play that way, so that’s probably part of it, although he’s now reunited with Conte who’s shown that faith and plays that system too. Plus once he showed that form for Chelsea perhaps other managers have pigeonholed him as that kind of player, despite him being more versatile IMO. He’s not the only unlucky player around, there’s not much room for a whole generation of Riquelme style 10s either. | ||

Obviously La Liga and Premier League with 4 teams each still far and beyond. Then Bundesliga still slightly above Serie A with 3 teams each,at least in my opinion. I rate Bayern and Dortmund higher than Juventus and Napoli. And then France with Lyon and PSG | ||
