La Liga 13-14

[Darkon]

Good game the Bilbao vs Barca on right now. Really enjoy the Bilbao setup this season, they will get better the more games they have under Valverde.

Bilbao is my pet-favorite club in Spain, it's amazing what they can manage to still achieve with their recruitment policy.

Hope they win tonight to get the top a bit closer.

And so they did.

Two defeats on the bounce for Barcelona (granted the first one was in the Champions League).

Bilbao 1 Barcelona 0

Would love us to go in for that lad, had a tough go of it last season but does have some class.

[Darkon]

It was a good game last night, enjoyed it. Barcelona looks slightly more toothless recently, but credit to Bilbao for taking the game to them.

Still undefeated at their new stadium

Real Madrid are losing 2-1 against Osasuna.

Sergio Ramos has picked up his 18th red card!

[ChesterDave]

He really is an utter thug.

[Reece]

That Neymar chap is starting to look pretty decent huh?

[The Reverend]

He was brilliant again last night. No surprise that he's playing better without messi in the side though, trying to shoehorn them both into the same line up wasn't getting the best out of neymar. He needs to be the main man through the middle

They can sell Messi now for £100 billion.

[danperkins]

Athletico top of the league (for the moment) very refreshing to see.. would love to see them win it as i can't stand Madrid & Barca.

[Shaggy]

Simeone is doing some job. Would be great to see them break the status quo. No-one's done that since Rafa.

Club 'willing to pay £330m for Messi'
Sports marketing specialist Gerardo Molina has claimed that an unnamed club is willing to pay €400m (£330m) for Lionel Messi.

Molina, who works for Euromericas Sport Marketing, has written a report on the market value of the player, and has revealed that there is a club willing to pay an astonishing fee for the Argentine forward.

“There is a club that is practically sponsored by a government that would be prepared to pay €400m (£330m) for Leo Messi,” he told Cadena SER.

“There are three European clubs that asked us to come up with this study in order to find out how much Messi was worth.

“We cannot say who the clubs are. The clubs wanted to analyse the viability of a possible transfer for Messi.

“Messi is five times more marketable than Cristiano Ronaldo. According to studies, Ronaldo is worth between €150-160m.

“Messi’s buy-out clause is €250m (£207m), we believe that figure is obsolete and devalued. Right now there is no player in the world of sport that has a greater value than Leo Messi. According to market research in the last five years, Messi is worth €400m (£330m).”
