CI Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I've not heard of it ? What sort of stuff do they bet on ? Newcastle results ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 82 goals in 2012 now for Messi. That's the difference between Real and Barca, the big players turn up when playing lesser teams, Yesterday Ozil,Benzema,Ronaldo etc didn't turn up and they lost.

Troglodyte Posted November 25, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted November 25, 2012 I'm not usually sympathetic for Ronaldo but that's a bit harsh - he sometimes (less so, these days) gets criticised for not 'turning up' against big teams; now on one of the few occasions when he doesn't score, he's not turning up against lesser teams?

The_Rev Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 It's massively harsh, overly simplistic and relies on people not actually checking whether the claim is true. Last season Real Madrid got 100(!) points and scored 121 goals (Ronaldo got 46) but yeah, they dont turn up against the small teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly some of their big players weren't on form yesterday and in turn they lost, how else would you explain that? I guess you could blame it on tiredness. From playing in the champions league midweek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted November 25, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted November 25, 2012 Some of their big players weren't on form, and they lost. Maybe they didn't turn up today, but to suggest that the difference between Real and Barça is that only the latter 'turn up against lesser teams' is, at best, oversimplification.
