Champions League quarter-finals

Is it bad to say as a Liverpool fan that not even Torres comes close to Messi, I feel bad for saying it it but he's on a whole other level!

No need to feel bad, every other player for about 20 years is. He's already one of the best EVER players. Everyone else looks ordinary compared to him, still can't believe how many people (lots on here even) argued that it was close between him and Rooney

[wavydavy]

Rooney who?

Can we (the whole country) now put away for good the totally ****ing silly, stupid and idiotic notion, a notion championed by a lot of so-called experts in the media, that Wayne Rooney is the best player in the world.

[wiw]

Wowzer!!

Arsenal look scared to have the ball, it's ridiculous. There's no point pressing with your forwards if your midfield drop back, they're hopeless at defending as a team

[Dalglish]

If only Barca weren't also diving cheats.

Hmmmmmm

Hmmmmmm

Come on, you can't deny it. As wonderful as they are, they roll around and make the most of every challenge.

[SimonNo7]

Rafa would never play him ahead of Kuyt.

[Roboklopp]

Cmon Messi... I mean Barca.

[Roboklopp]

**** off Bender.

[Finnish_Red]

Hah, Rosicky shat himself completely

[Leyton388]

HAHAHA Bedtner doing what he does best being ****!

Come on, you can't deny it. As wonderful as they are, they roll around and make the most of every challenge.

Aye, tis true. According to Blatter/Plattini, it's just a different ethos, it's seen as part of the game, part of the players armoury to get what he can for his team.

messi = 4

Well, no matter what his teammates do, one of my favourite things about Messi is that he doesn't go down easily at all. Even when he hits the ground he's often on his feet so fast that he barely breaks stride.

[Kenneth]

Messi 4 Arsenal 1.

[leftpeg]

Incredible. Absolutely.
