"La Liga thread"

Figured i'd make a place to talk about the soccer ball in Spain, if only to have a place for my Robinho love :-D

Exciting match so far with Madrid and Celta, the awesome Nunez getting on the score sheet. Serves Robby Carlos right for legging it into the box before the penalty had been taken, had he waited until it was taken and then moved he'd probably have been in a place to deal with it.

I thought you said the Camp Nou only sells out for Madrid matches? I'd expect a better atmosphere at a sold out game. Go to a Real match, apparently their match against Bilbao was the first home game in about two years that wasn't completely sold out before kick off. It always looks more exciting there on TV. Maybe the Nou Camp just has bad acoustics, or some equally bad Catalan excuse.

Throw any pig heads?

I've been a La Liga match, does that win me cool points?

Atmosphere in La Liga stadiums sucks compared to Premiership. Admittedly, I'm basing that on one Nou Camp game versus my times at Anfield, but it was against Valencia, so you'd expect at least something.

It's quite hard when the games take place hundreds of miles apart. They do attend some of the big matches, like the Barca-Madrid games.

I reckon he always plays well, he's very rarely not one of their best players. And La Liga is better than anything else.

Woodgates goal was genius :)

Would you please just shut up with the same dribble over and over.

I watch most games shown on TV.

And thus far, the premiership games haven't really entertained me.

On the other hand, La Liga has!

And guess what, they're both ON TV!
