Alph Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Rumour is that they want Hummels of course, so atleast they're looking to fix that. Not seen much of him but he looks bloody awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CumbrianRam Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 At least they will win the league this year, glad Valdes is leaving. Pinto has put in better performances of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premiership football is cack, just look at where the teams in this years European Cup ended up, damp squib an understatement, the only people who believe the hype are Sky and the jug eared crisp eater on the Beeb. Our national side isn't much better either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Vegas Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I've got no complaints.. This Barca team is the weakest Barca team since the early Rijkaard era.. I mean look at the following 2 teams from the early/end of Guardiolas era GK: Valdes RB: Alves LB: Abidal CB: Puyol CB: Marquez CM: Xavi CM: Iniesta CM: Yaya Toure ST: Henry ST: Messi ST: Eto'o And then.. GK: Valdes RB: Alves LB: Abidal CB: Puyol CB: Pique CM: Busquets CM: Iniesta CM: Xavi ST: Messi ST: Villa ST: Pedro And now.. tonight GK: Valdes RB: Dani Alves (who has dropped a level) LB: Adriano CB: Pique CB: Bartra CM: Xavi (who has dropped a level) CM: Iniesta CM: Song ST: Fabregas ST: Villa ST: Pedro The difference in Barcelona teams from the Guardiola era to tonight is just crazy... This isn't even a strong team playing, who of the that 11 would you say is the best in their position in the world? I can't think of many from the Barca side that would get into Bayern's team tonight.. Pique and Iniesta and that's it? The era isn't over, they can buy again and need to buy again.. But this doesn't represent a great Barca side at all.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our national side isn't much better either. I agree, but the media like to say it is greatest thing ever, this season has been the worst top flight season ever, the difference between 2008 Man Utd teams and 2013 is amazing, funny how Danny Welbeck can be a regular now. People go on about Spain, Germany being a two team league, well the Prem is also and you can't be the best league in the world when Clint Hill, James Perch, Grant Holt and Danny Graham are regular starters.

EastKentRam Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 It really does sadden me to see this Barca side struggle, looks the end of an era. You were part of something special boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Would be harsh to sack Tito after winning the league and getting the semi-final, but wonder if. Enjoyed 2006-2011 vintage anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 That 4 years under Pep will go down in history.. The best team ever.. They absolutely nailed everyone bar Chelsea of all teams.. Tonked Milan, Real Madrid, Man Utd, Bayern Munich, Arsenal etc.. I also feel sad watching this side.. I don't even recognise the current players. But the Barca pressure game is copied by all.. Even this Bayern team built their philosophy on Barca's pressing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Wasn't going to last forever all great teams have about 5 years before it gets broken up, they will be back like Bayern are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Barca need to build around Messi, Iniesta, Pique, Tello, Thiago, Alba, Busquets.. If Alba is going to be the fullback, the need a tall solid RB.. They need a new worldclass CM, 2 new strikers as Villa looks out of favor and Pedro and Tello are brilliant players but not worldclass.. Especially a number 9, I don't think they can continue with their tactics as they haven't got the best players anymore.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKentRam Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Mould Fabregas into the Xavi role, dont think I've ever seen him stand out in a big game playing this roaming striker role. Get him back doing what he was doing for Arsenal, dictating play, carrying the ball forward, making things happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
