Em where did i say otherwise or disagree with that Craig? Like i said said in post above, they have great workmenlike attitude. But they dominate/frustrate teams games because of their posession first and foremost. Helps with world class player literred around your starting 11 too

They dominate because they press with serious emphasis, forcing the opposition out of possession and then they keep it so well and suffocate the opposition.

WTF?

[Arn]

The number of goals we scored in the games 08-09 that proves once and for all that LDP talks bull****

0,1,2,1,0
2,2,0,2,2
3,3,3,1,1
1,1,1,3,2
2,0,1,0,3
3,2,1,3,5
2,0,1,1,1
2,0,3,1,1
0,2,4,4,5
1,1,4,4,4
3,3,3,2,3

So we scored three goals or more in seven of our last eight games but that is **** football according to LDP.......

I disagree, they press high up and suffocate teams to get posession/force errors, but ultimately they kill teams by passing them offf the park. A team can only do so much when they can't get the ball. Add not having the ball to not having the ball against Messi/Iniesta/Xavi/David Villa. Barca off the ball are top notch but they are always high scorers because of what they can do with the ball and on the ball. Last 2 seasons over 200 league goals scored, thats were the damage comes from.

Only way to play against that is if you have a top defence, like say Chelsea and how they played Barca, let them have their posession and defend deep and then break. Barca were blessed to beat them.

Hey Arnie em what are you talking about?

I know you have an agenda but i honestly am lost here to what exactly your trying to prove. And you didn't answer any of my question in previous post either about technique etc lol was that a convienient avoidance or maybe some selective typing, or where too busy on the googly machine me thinks :P

I still remember the quarterfinal in the CL against Chelsea at SB 08-09. No one gave us a chance to advance but we almost did that playing super attacking football. We scored four but could easily scored three, four more. We totally outplayed them.

I actually think that game was our best attacking game the last third of the pitch that season.

We totally outplayed Real Madrid at Anfield winning 4-0. Could have been ten. How did we outplay them? We did that playing super attacking football. We didn't do it thanks to counter attacks. We simply crushed them.

In our 4-4 game against Arsenal in the PL at Anfield we totally outplayed them but only got one point. How did we outplay them? Playing fantastic attacking football.

We hunted the teams down all over the pitch and thanks to that dominated against some of the best teams in the world.

We were the most feared side in Europe. No one wanted to play against us, no one.

Yup some great games of football for sure, the boys were let off the leash and was a refreshing to watch no doubts, and then i could say what about the nightmares that were Stoke twice/Fulham/West Ham/Blackburn/Wigan/Middlesborugh, the earlier games against the weaker opposition, when we were ultra cautious and didn't go out and attack them, and couldn't break them down, ultimately cost us the league. We played excellent for the last 10 games or so but it wasn't enough.

Now, can honestly tell me that when you see players like Carra/Skrtel/Kyriagkos/Lucas/Konch/Poulsen/Babel/ etc on the ball that they look comfortable and technically assured in posession?

This is actually getting boring mate i'm sure you can admit it too? I have different opinions to certain folk about Rafa in particular but we have completly contrasting views on everything that is football, so whats the point in arguing. Agree to Disagree ?

It's not a childish comment, it's a factual observation.

You're utterly clueless.
