"What Arsenal Did to Leeds Was Nothing......."

When compared to what Barcelona did to Malaga. I'm watching the game at the moment 60 minutes in and it's 3-0 to Barca who are just absolutely coasting at the moment, it's basically an exhibition game and Nike Advert mixed into one with Ronaldinho and pals just embarrasing the Malaga players with amazing tricks and skills. Makes Arsenal's performance look very ordinary


Ronaldinho > Henry

Really making me wish we had signed him now

Celtic got lucky agaisnt Barca. I'm sure it would have been a different story in the first leg had there been no red cards.

They also missed Davids in europe. Barca havnt lost a game in the league since they signed davds on loan.

I think Barca are a very skillful team. I also think that along with Real Madrid they are rather arrogant, and that was part of the reason why they got put out of the UEFA cup by Celtic. Let's face it, Celtic don't have a team with as much skill as Barca do, but they put the effort in, and they won.

I am just not convinced that Barca will improve that much. I think they will do alright in the Champions League, but I don't see them making the quarter finals or anything any time soon.

AHaahahahha. How you have Beckham on that list at all let alone above Ronaldinho is beyong me.

Lol the irony..

Same tonight against Espanyol. finished 4-1 to barca.

Ronaldinho was up to tricks again, and scored a header of all things. They looked great going forward but defense was poor and if espanyol actually had strikers who could kick the ball straight barca might have been in trouble.

should be a major force in the champions league next season though and shuts up the people who thought Ronaldinho shouldnt have gone to barca just becasue they didnt get into the champions league for one season.

Premiership would of been close if Man United had Ronadinho.

At the moment these are the best 3 players in the World for me:

1. Henry
2. Beckham
3. Ronaldinho

Most people don't rate Ronaldinho, but I've seen him play a few games for Barcelona this season and he looks amazing. Some of his goals are class aswell.

He just runs at defences like Henry and tears them apart. Can't imagine what it would be like if they were on the same team. Then again it might not work with both players having near enough the same abilities.

Yeah, i've seen Dunn do that many a time, but not the way Ronny did it. I love showboating, I will miss it during the summer months.

Excellent game.

How skillful was that trick where he faked kicking it, looked left, then kicked it right. Sure as hell confused me if not the Malaga defender.
