Can we send this memo to the Nou Camp please...

If you have hopes of scoring a goal, you actually need to shoot...dumb-arses...

Twas like fecking Arsenal without the tempo, trying to walk the ball in at 10mph...kin useless.

[JohnDoe]

But but... they play attractive football

[EST_1892]

Ah well, It's done with now Sid. There really was NOTHING to see there.

[wavydavy]

Pleat summed it up perfectly. PRETTY PATTERNS. We'd have got and have been ****in' slated for doing that. Will they? Doubt it.

[Craig_H]

It was bollocks, anyone can play keep ball when your opponents are sat back behind the ball. Ultimately, they couldnt create anything and seemed uninterested in threatening the mancs goal. Eto'o looked pleased to come off FFS.

[Roboklopp]

We played much better against them than Scum did

Messi will never, ever, be anywhere near as good as Maradona playing for Barcelona. He needs to move and move now. Go to Fiorentina or something and make them seria A champions single handedly.

Too many tw*ts around him just waiting for the ball instead of making runs into the box. His passing is awesome to watch, its a shame 70 percent of those passes are to Deco or Xavi standing on the half way line.

The mancs didnt HAVE to play well. Uber defence in Spain and then taking advantage of that pleb Zambrotta giving the ball to Scholes. Great strike. Mancs needed to do nothing more, because Barca werent interested in scoring a goal. How can a team with Henry, Eto'o, Messi and Bojan not create a chance in 3 hours football?

Not surprised Rijkaard's getting his P45, he's a fecking shambles.

He is awesome all the same. His close control is incredible

Spot on. He's simply lightyears ahead of his team mates. He has the desire and ability to make things happen, but the rest of them were half hearted at best.

[Joe King]

Messi can be a great. I think if he has a fully fit season, they will challenge for La Liga properly next season. Too much bull**** for Barcelona this season- Rijkaard's incompetence, Ronaldinho's 'problems', Messi and Eto'o being injured for long periods.

[Roboklopp]

Aye, but you can bet they wont be be acknowledging how ****e the teams were they played when I get showered in their tedious verbal bukkake tomorrow tho.

[Craig_H]

Rijkaard has no idea how to utilise the tools he has at his disposal. Clueless as feck.

I couldn't believe he took off Eto'o when they were chasing the game. Unbelievable.

Exactly. His only actual natural goalscorer. He's a cretin.

Soon to be an unemployed cretin.
