    its not so much the fact they hammered them but its the way they do it, made it look ridiculously easy barr a few defensive lapses.

    They've scored 31 goals in the last 5 or 6 games with out conceding a goal and they do it playing incredible football.

    They are a joy to watch and I think a team in 20-30 years time we are all going to be incredibly glad that we all lived in a time were we could see them.

    You here about the Brazillian sides of 62, 82 and the great Holland Total Football teams. The Ajax Total Football, Bayern with Beckenbuer and co,
    Sacchi's Milan team.

    You could go on and on but I genuinely believe this is one of the greatest teams ever seen.

    We should be glad to watch it as football fans.

    i think their current team is possibly the best club team of all time. fortunately i had the honour of witnessing them live at celtic park a few years ago, we lost 3-2, but my feelings were more admiration for barca than dissapointment for celtic losing.

    there is no words to describe barca at present , they truly are an amazing bunch of performers and deserve every praise and accolade they can get.
    wish they would take sammy on loan for rest of season tho :rolleyes:

    Espanyol were on a good run and were unbeaten at home in La Liga this season.

    Man Utd fan in hating Barca shocker.

    I love the posts on Saturday or Sunday nights from bitter fans of one of the English teams claiming they're 'not that good'. When they play Arsenal, because to be great you have to do it against the English of course, we'll see how not that good they are.

    On the Mascherano issue, Busquets is in my opinion the most underrated player in the world, closes out opposing players well, good passer, slips between Puyol and Pique to make a defensive three when Alves and Abidal are attacking effortlessly, and is well disciplined. Mascherano has very few of these qualities.

    Spot on with both points mate. Busquets is a class act.

    Anybody hear Andy Gray saying they couldn't cope with Stoke or Blackburn last night? I lol'd literally lol'd.

    Ripped apart Man Utd in a Champions League final, humiliated Arsenal, Chelsea were terrifed to do anything apart from sit in there own box against them but the mighty Stoke and Blackburn would just prove to much for them.

    Sky Sports reporting on the Premiership really makes me laugh. Richard Keys trying to make out that people saying La Liga is more technical is a myth.

    For christs sake The Premiership is a good league but they just take it to * * far sometimes.

    The prem is the 3rd best league in the world - miles behind la liga and bundesliga IMO.

    Andy Gray is just a wannabe English fat bald hun *. Stoke or Blackburn would just resort to trying to kick them out of the game, but at the end of the day do you think that if that worked teams wouldnt do it in Spain or Europe. To claim Stoke or Blackburn would get anything more than eight goals fired past them is laughable.

    Sky Sports is a joke. It's verging on propaganda.
