    Can see Barca looking for a new manager in the summer if they stay where they are.

    Haha yass, watching the Real game and seen the draw at 16/1 with 1 minute to go and they are going for an unbeaten record, thought * it and put £5 on it and they scored about 10 seconds later :celtman2:

    * sake, refs in Spain really are atrocious. Gaya just got deliberately clattered in the back by a player who was trying to send him into the advertising boards, had the desired effect. Espanyol ended up getting a throw in.

    That Madrid defence looks packed, hard to break through. They can afford to keep players deep with the devastating strikers they have for counter attacking.

    What is the formation?

    Barca will be desperate for a Sevilla win of course but it's already looking tough. Madrid look very well organised. But it's Sevilla, they're not 3rd for nothing, they will create some chances.

    Edit: Just heard him saying it's 3 at the back. Looks more than that when they're defending.

    They are on a mental run but I just find Real Madrid so unwatchable. Would love Sevilla to end their streak tonight.

    Good half for a 0-0, both teams with chances. Plenty of blood and thunder with these two teams as well.

    I thought it was going to be more exciting, both teams seem too defensively sound though and it's hard for any through balls to get played.

    Aye I don't think it's been dull for a nil nil. Both cancelling each other out fairly well. Just that finish missing..

    One of those you can see quite a few goals in still..

    Mon Sevilla, give us the first couple of goals

    Like the look of Mariano, could see him at centre half quite easily.

    Definitely looks like there will be at least a goal the way this half has started.

    Bullshit decision there from the ref, stubs out a good Sevilla attack.

    Hasn't been a goalless draw between the two at the Pijuan since 1981, apparently.

    Silly goalkeeping there.
