Has a better goal ratio then Henry, but to be fair Suarez was also scoring goals for fun in the Eredivisie, while Henry has played longer at better clubs (12 years in total at Juventus, Arsenal and Barcelona), while Suarez has played 5 years in the Eredivisie and 6 years at real top level with Liverpool and Barcelona.
La Liga - 2015/2016
- Thread starter jojojo
- Start date
Well we know what Arsenal's game plan should be- put everyone in goal for 210 minutes and win the shootout.
Barca I think are effectively 8 points clear of Real now (due to the 0-4 result in Madrid) and Atletico play Real away soon. It won't be easy but Barcelona should be winning it with a lead like that at this point.

Didn't neymar do that last season?
No, he scored 39 according to wiki
Is Suarez already on 40+ in the league, CL and Copa del Rey?
Edit:
34 goals in league, CL and Copa but another 6 goals with the Club World Cup and some Supercup? Still, he'll easily break the 40 with just the league, CL and Copa.

Barca have already played 43 games this season in all competitions (including ET in the Super Cup) and he's played every minute in 36 of them so at this point anything below 40 wouldn't be counted as anything special as long as he's fit for the rest of the season.
So I heard the following stats, someone can fill m with exact numbers. Fraction of penalties missed in the league this season:
EPL - 13%
Bundesliga - 21%
La Liga - 30%
That is a huge difference.

Pshh, Mariano Martin did it back in '43, at a least according to this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariano_Martín
Suarez is on 34 goals in La Liga, Copa and CL. 34 in February! There's another 14 league games to be played, and a potential 7 games in the CL. Add in a few Copa matches and Suarez could play another 20-25 matches. He could get the 50 goals tally!
Scored: 13
Conceded: 0
two-team-league. Everyone else is shit.
Match 25: 19/21 Feb
La Liga this weekend. With Barca now having played their game in hand the top of the table looks like:
Barcelona 60
Atletico 54
Real Madrid 53
Villarreal 48
Sevilla is in fifth with 40 points, and there are then a bunch of clubs led by Eibar on 36 points chasing the EL places.
Tonight
Levante V Getafe 19:30 (from the BBC so all times are UK)
Saturday
Las Palmas V Barcelona 15:00
Espanyol V Deportivo de La Coruña 17:15
Real Betis V Sporting de Gijón 19:30
Celta de Vigo V Eibar 21:05
Sunday
Rayo Vallecano V Sevilla 11:00
Málaga V Real Madrid 15:00
Ath Bilbao V Real Sociedad 17:15
Granada CF V Valencia 17:15
Atl Madrid V Villarreal 19:30
The obvious big game is Atletico V Villarreal, home advantage should carry Atletico through, but it should be close. Atletico are away to PSV on Wednesday and Villarrreal (who beat Napoli 1-0 on Thursday) will be away to Napoli on Thursday. How that will affect Sunday's match - your guess is as good as mine.

Spanish defences eh.
Just watching Levante v Getafe with my young un and even he says that a team like Levante is more fun to watch than Utd right now!
Good game TBH. Morales is a real handful, hard to believe he only started as a pro at 20! Nice to see Guiseppi Rossi again, and he's scored a penalty

Nice to hear Levante and fun in the same sentence - they don't often get that!
I'm fairly confident that Sevilla will catch Villareal for 4th place.
It tells you a lot about how Utd is viewed these days.
2 on Messi and 3 on Neymar.Mascherano would have been free on goal.
Do they expect Barca to do that penalty on a regular basis now?
Las Palmas all over Barça in the opening minutes... Sergi Roberto struggling early on (replacing Busquets)
that's terrible defending from Las Palmas
Too easy, but superb pass by Iniesta at the start.
Masche is still on vacation I believe.
Goal came our of no where, so fast.
Enrique too harsh on Bartra and Vermaelen.
Las Palmas score.
Las Palmas score.
Nice goal by Las Palmas. Poor positioning by Alba.
1-1
Brilliant goal by Las Palmas, what a flick.
Alba giveth, Alba taketh away
Alves....
Neat pass which led to the goal.
Is it even worth watching Barca these days when you can just get on with your life and watch a 15 minute highlight and feel satisfied?
Yes.
Roberto and Masche are getting overrun easily. Need to tighten up immediately.
And why do we always have 2 players while taking corners??

I love that barca kit.
Sergi Roberto terrible? He's having a decent season, far from terrible.
Roberto can almost anywhere, but can't replace Busquets, he doesn't have that. Rather play Samper in this position.
Arda Turan looks like a luxury player in this squad. Rakitic is 200% more effective and useful for them.
