Aside from Iniesta, amazed any neutral is actually watching this. Barca games at Camp Nou are generally pretty boring. Think Barca only conceded 10 league goals at home all season.
Messi and Coutinho. Messi needs no introduction but Coutinho is a top player, can score a screamer from 25-30 yards out of nothing. Reminds me of Bale in his last season at Spurs, such a unique skill to have.

Messi was sub so not sure why I'd want to watch someone sitting on a bench for 70 minutes.

Just surprised given the choice neutrals would rather watch Barca than Lazio-Inter which was a brilliant game of football from start to finish, full of drama and obviously had CL qualificaiton on the line.

It actually reminded me of the famous Barca Rivaldo game when he scored that overhead kick in the last minute to deny Valencia champions league qualification and Barca got it instead.

This weekend had drama with Griezmann, Simeone sent Godin to talk with the fans so they could cheer for him instead of whistling.


But it seems that didn't work. So, today Atletico have signed Nelson Vivas for their coaching staff, what's funny about this?. Well, Vivas has a rather "direct" approach in how he deals with extremely critical fans.


This might be the signing that makes Griezmann stay, not many fans will boo him with Vivas there to defend him.

At one point, Vivas even said to the fan "Why the heck do you come here to talk s... you're a Quilmes fan! Go watch another team if you don't like this, go talk about Barça!". Maybe he had a premonition there :lol:

Surely a coach who beats up fans gets sacked immediately:confused:

Ramón Planes will be the new director of football and Pablo Machín has every chance of being the next coach

Brighton signed Andone. 5 year deal. :eek:

Scores a bit but can't say he overly impresses me and Seedorf dropped him pretty quickly after taking over.

@Afganitia no worries, Sevilla got rejected. :(

Pablo Machin soon a Sevilla manager..:drool: He is basically the last good alternative left for us. If this deal don't go through then we are facing a long summer:rolleyes: Caparros stays at the club, as footballing director. Great!:)

Two year deal it seems. And Ruby going to Espanyol. Wonder what we are going to do. I hope we aren't going down this year.

What a tragic season for Deportivo with their goalkeepers


It would be a hard election between Ruben and Tyton to decide who was better, thankfully Koval brough a circus from Ukraine and ran away with that honor in just 45 minutes (Inui's goal and the red card vs Eibar)
