La Liga

[Guest]

I'd laugh my bollocks off if Lyon dispatch Madrid out of the CL.

I'd be delighted if they do it. Funny thing, they really can do it judging by that result in the first leg.

Yes but they haven't yet.



I think with the money Real splashed in the summer, they should have been 10 points clear at the top of the table. They're under-performing IMO. They're not sure to qualify for the next stage of the CL too.

I agree, the classico will be a good game.

You're talking pure dribble. Under performing They have the best GD in La Liga, and they're leading the title race.

For them to be 10 pts clear of Barca, they would have to be sitting on 72 points from 25 games....or 24 wins and 1 loss

They're under-performing IMO.

Theyve won 20 of 25 games in the league. Imagine if they start performing!

I think Madrid will blitz them in the bernabeu.

Lyon could certainly score, but i wouldnt be surprised if Madrid net 3 or 4 goals.

I can understand what you're saying about the money they spent and the idea of 'underperforming' in relation to the funds they spent, but in reality, 20 wins from 25 games is insanely good, regardless of spending.

It's not as simple as to say "Spending £250m should mean 22 wins, £300 should mean 23 wins" etc.

There's far too much flexibility in a football match, for it to be as 'clinical' as that.

They should have won 25 out of 25 with that team, should already have been qualified for the CL final and won the Spanish cup just by turning up. In other words, they're massively under performing. FACT.

You're ****ing mental Fredo

Roma are the only ones who have no chance, IMO. What would you have got on that bet without them?

I wouldnt say Roma have no chance. Since christmas they are the most in-form team throughout Europe.

I dont know what i would have got without them but it wouldnt have been that good as they were the long shot (7/1) which made the accumalator worth taking.

You don't win anything till you haven't crossed that finishing line. Barca will win it.

Double negatives are never not confusing to some extent, non?

think you will find you do need to cross the finishing line to win something

Yes but they haven't yet.

I'm not sure you understood red g's point.

Quite.

Quite.

Oh I know, my intentions were clear though and that was deliberate and done in such a way to invite pedantic replies. I do agree with the fredoian slip beforehand but it was pretty pointless to change my post. I still meant to say my mother though.
