I hate all the hype around Barcelona. I find their style stultifying and dull. Its like watching a big game of 5 aside. passy passy passy and hope Messi dribbles it into the net. Yawn. Couldnt give a fuck what anyone thinks, they bore the arse off me. Give me Brazil 82 anyday.
I hope Real Madrid fuck them. Hard.

Pure football
oh Im sure it appeals to a lot of people, but I just dont find its football for me. one paced, predictable tappy lappy. I like a good bit of wing play and a towering header, a long through ball to a pacey striker. I enjoyed Ba's two goals today more than anything Barcelona will do tonight.
I think in my time my favourite sides to watch were Holland and Argentina 78, Brazil 82 and for a brief period in the early 2000's Real Madrid were joyous.
This ticky tacky or whatever they call it just doesnt float my boat. Same thing every game. It will be a sad day if the powers that be keep tinkering with the laws so that this is the only way to play football.

I'll give it a miss. Barnsley 2-3 Ipswich is a cracker. Brilliant header from Ipswich. Blood and snot. Fucking hell - Chopra just scored a beauty!

Barnsley 3-5 Ipswich! Fuck the Spaniards - what a game! Come on Barnsley!

erm, well it is with me venners. I sat through Arsenal v Barcelona earlier this year and nodded off. If that is the future of football count me out.

oh god yes.
the thing is, I actually like heading and muscle as well as passing. The problem with Barca is its just passing. I never liked playing 5 a side, so I dont like watching it.

And Lip i just dont get where you are coming from? Barca are the best at the world at keeping possesion of the ball which is basically the most important thing in a game so to say it is not GREAT football, never mind football is beyond me.
You also state it is predictable but surely if it was teams would be able to come up with a plan to stop them which very rarely happens!
heres a match for everyone who thinks football was invented about 1992
(10th December 2011 07:46 PM)Swyer87 Wrote: Guests cannot see links in the messages. Please register to forum by clicking here to see links.Madrid to take it 3-2 i reckon!

I really hope so. And I hope the winner is a header from Ronaldo. I believe Barcelona think they can play with dwarves as centre halves....ponces.

The fact that they can do that 'tappy lappy' stuff for long periods shows there class!
nope. its boring.
and more importantly if we are not careful the whole of football will decide this is how the game should be played - one big gay 5 a side match with no tackling or headers. I sincerely hope not.
football how it is meant to be - check out Terry Hibbitt shaking players hands after the free kick at the end. I was at that game - 4-2 v QPR. Happy days.

Just a better team.
shit match. no atmosphere. minimal excitement - Barnsley v Ipswich was better.
