Messi.....

Only been on the pitch for 3 minutes but £#%&! me, he hasn't half lifted Barca.

The dwarf is a genius.

no Eto'o or Henry

cant wait for wednesday

he is a genius you are right.


going to be as hard a game as we've had imo, %@#$&!s to all this talk of them being shit

Eto'o is playing, so is messi. Xavi, Iniesta are looking decent as well.

I can't believe people have been so dismissive of a team with THAT much quality. Some people know £#%&! all about football.

don't think so. he's missed a couple of sitters, though.

Spot on.

But I cannot wait for these games. And you will see a major difference in the quality of games when we play the bores at Stamford Bridge in between the 2 semis.

he is not a genius though.

he is a great flairy and creative player barca really need. something that ronaldinho has locked up in his locker and lost the key.

i think we should be happy to have evra who has the pace and the ability to be able to stop messi somehow, of course it will be tough as £#%&! because this little kid is amazing.

I will predict paddy to miss the 2nd leg as he gets a booking if messi plays.

I don't have a problem with genuine class players, I love watching them, I just hope hope he doesn't turn it on on weds.

ronaldo and messi on the same pitch, who wouldn't get excited at that thought

kameni just made me laugh with that leap to catch the ball

Messi dribbing through the box then, the guy is incredible. wonder how he would fare if he was 6ft+ though and defenders were allowed to crash into him. him being tiny probably worksi his favour as any contact makes it look like a dead cert free kick.

Brown, Evra, Carrick and Scholes don't tend to do too well against players who can run with the ball. Seriously hope we can call on Hargreaves and Anderson

fergie says both are ok for weds, and wayne

would have buried that.

I hope eto'o doesn't find his form in the next couple of days.

if he wasn't covered from head to toe in a plastercast, you mean?

He'll outshine Ronaldo, Ronnie winds himself too much for the big games.

Barca 0 Espanyol 0

Poor game to be honest although Barca should have won

I stuck a few quid on espanyol at 14-1 this aft, thought they might leave the big guns out the bastards
