ED Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Doea anyone remember an away game in the second half of last season when Leo ran with it along side the edge of the box skinning everyone before slipping through a lovely ball to Adriano who royally **** it up? Been looking for it for a while. One of the all time great 'near assists' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted February 4, 2013 Author VT Supporter Share Posted February 4, 2013 I'm pretty sure I remember that one, but couldn't tell you which match it was. There are so many fantastic 'near-assists' with Barça on a regular basis. Iniesta, Xavi and Messi can all create genuine opportunities in the most ridiculously sublime ways.

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) If his beard wasn't enough, it turns out Xabi Alonso also has a pretty decent taste in music judging by his twitter timeline.

villa4europe Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 watching the game tonight vs uruguay, fabregas with an amazing ball for their 3rd, its a bit tasty, plenty of sly digs at each other, alba would have been sent off if it was competitive classic suarez moment, he's miles offside, everyone can see it, you can tell by his body language even he knows it, ball gets passed to him, he's leaving it knowing he's offside, letting it run for the winger, last second takes a touch, offside flag goes up, he went tits! **** idiot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 ramos gets another red card tonight. He must be nearing a European record at this stage. He is only 26 and think thats his 16th red card for Real Madrid. the world record is 41 so he might even break that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 16 red cards by 26? Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I **** HATE Sergio Ramos. He runs around like a headless chicken hacking at people and generally being shit at his job. How on earth he has played enough for Madrid to earn that amount of card-age is beyond my understanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I don't think he's that bad, but he's definitely overrated. Was brilliant at Euro2008 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 he is very underrated among British media who think he is a brute. Have never always been a fan but in last 18 months he has become one of best defenders in the world. Says it all that even though he fell out with Mourinho he still plays everyweek. most of his red cards are usually for stupid things and are avoidable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 He's a good player, but he is a liability with those red cards. Needs to sort it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted February 21, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted February 21, 2013 Ramos IS excellent. Unfortunately his discipline is so poor that he's also a liability at the same time. As well as his red cards, hasn't he had 30-something separate suspensions too (including the ones for the reds)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 The race for CL spots is getting very interesting, part of me would like to see Real Sociedad get a spot but I think they'll just fall short come end of season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 all the clubs are in inconsistent form at moment, I think Valencia have the stronger squad and from performance last week vs PSG anything to go by they will probably take it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Also I remember saying Carlos Vela will be a huge success there with consistent first team football, bet they couldn't believe it when Arsenal decided to let him go that cheap. Vela -> Gervinho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Dogg Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I was baffled as to why the let Vela go. Well he never did anything for Arsenal, they tend to hang on to youngsters too long usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
