Complete fixture list:
for the 3rd consecutive year, they get to play the 2nd match in their home!!!! :@ am sooo pissed with the biased ppl on the RFEF… filthy morons.. anyway, wont matter
I get what you mean but consider this. At Bernabeu they have to open up. They can play ultra defensively at Camp Nou, but at their home ground, no. And we know what happens when opposite team opens up against Blaugrana.
Can`t wait for the 28 fuckin november…… I´ll be at the camp nou cursing the white scum like a spitting madman!
Now we have to wait for el classico until November again.Oh well, it's surly worth waiting for specially since the first one is in the Camp Nou
i hope madrid is already out of the title race before the first classico
Ali I hope both classicos they are chasing us when it comes to points they will play and open game 2 be decimated twice.
Amen brother
and for the third consecutive year we will win the title too
i hope soo
i'm afraid of mourinho
Nah… Barca will be ready for him.. Its over.. Pep will not be scared of him
lol we have our bogey match 3rd atletico madrid vs barca, that jinx will be broken now cause we start the season strong most of the time.
we have such a hard start to the season, i actually kind of like it. it's always better to have an easy end to the season if things go down to the wire. real have to gain a big advantage coming on to the end of the season.
guys i want you to look at the list carefully and tell me if you are seeing what i'm seeing. real madrid's calendar looks so similar to barca's calendar last season. the valencia match after el classico, sevilla and villarreal games separated by one game and both are home games in the first half of the season and away on the second half and both on the same round 16 and 18, real madrid's easy start to the season and hard end.
I was actually thinking about this but didn't bother to look up the old schedule. But I agree about having a more difficult start and "easier" finish. Should make for a good season!

Looks like its gonna be El Pasi for Real Madrid at Bernabeu
great! I plan trip to Barcelona, and of course I HAVE to go to game:)
after the second classico we have fairly easy matches…matches at the end of season are the most important..we have an advantage there
if you think mourinho was great last year?nope he was lucky.Guardiola bangs him anytime.He will prove it from now.
Ask anyone who isn't a Barca fan and Mou is in the top 5 managers ATM, while Guardiola only makes top 10 or 20. Let's be serious.
hmmm i don't think you can teach me much about that.i don't like to repeat things 100 times.i have already discussed about the best coach at totalbarca,back then my pseudo was BritishFoodSucks.Sure,mourinho wins a lot of trophies,but to be the best you can't just win,you have to win in style.mourinho can go to any club and impose his style quickly,that is defensive football.but it took barça decades to bring up attacking players at la masia.pep was much involved in it."Attacking football is more difficult to play than defensive",Rinus Michels himself said that.this means that our results have more value than the other guy who chose the easy way.mourinho does a lot of things in the media ,he puts pressure on he other team,plays mindgames etc but isn't what he seems to be,i assure you.for me PEP IS THE NUMBER 1,that's it.
if you don't agree,say something positive.i don't want a hate reply.
I LOVE your reply!!!
I appreciate your opinion, and your response, but a few points of contention:
"Sure,mourinho wins a lot of trophies, but to be the best you can't just win, you have to win in style.mourinho can go to any club and impose his style quickly,that is defensive football."
- Wrong. Does Mourinho play defensively when it works to some larger strategy? Yes. Is defensive football, therefore, his de facto playing style? No. His teams very frequently play open/attacking football and often are the leading or second leading goal scorers of their league.
09/10 – Inter (top scorers in Serie A)
08/09 – Inter (top scorers in Serie A)
07/08 – out of job
06/07 – Chelsea (2nd top scorers in PL)
05/06 – Chelsea (top scorers in PL)
04/05 – Chelsea (2nd top scorers in PL)
03/04 – Porto (top scorers in Por Liga)
02/03 – Porto (2nd top scorers in Por Liga)
"Attacking football is more difficult to play than defensive",Rinus Michels himself said that.this means that our results have more value than the other guy who chose the easy way."
-Barca's style of attacking football is harder to learn, yes, and harder to perform on the pitch, but is also much harder to beat. So they have a disadvantage- it takes great technical skill to perform and more time/effort to achieve, but also an advantage- once acquired/ learned, Barca's possessive style is hard to out-do by the other team. They have an offensive advantage on the pitch with their intricate/ tricky style of play.
-I think a team that goes against Barca therefore, also has a disadvantage with this attacking style to contend with. One cannot say Barca are necessarily in the "harder" position. If the opposing team can manage to break this wicked offense down and win the game- they likewise deservedly do so, and their win is equally valid and valuable in my eyes.
"mourinho does a lot of things in the media ,he puts pressure on he other team,plays mindgames etc but isn't what he seems to be"
- His media antics and mind games, however greatly much one can disagree with them, are used to deflect the pressure off his team, and onto himself or the other team
- I very much think he is who he "seems to be"; he's blunt and straightforward in his manner and speech, and says what he really thinks/ feels (Isn't that way everyone get's so upset?)
"PEP IS THE NUMBER 1"
- He's a great coach and has achieved a lot in a small span of time. I was simply pointing out that most people (Barca fans aside) from a neutral perspective TODAY see him one of the best in the world I don' t think that's the case with Pep. Will it change? We'll see.
chill man..it's a good perspective of things.but i still believe that mou is fake.ok maybe number 1 was a bit exaggerated cause pep is not so experienced.
i agree mourinho can also play attack when he wants to,but it looks more like a variation of his counter-attacking style.but his way of teaching/playing is still the "easiest" one to get good results.
i have not said that Barcelona have fully acquired their style.it's not yet perfect.
playing a harder style and being good at it is a real proof of expertise,hard work and commitment.
maybe pep needs some more years to get the recognition he should.
mourinho knows his stuff well but hopefully won't get pep twice.
Wow we have a hard start to the season :p. I have a feeling that we will finally break the Atletico -away curse. Usually when we are about to face Atletico away, we are experiencing rough moments, but since the match will be so early in the season, I expect all our players to be fit and energized for the challenge. I also feel a lot more confident now that Villa is here!
madrid's last 7 games of the season will be
bilbao away
barca home
valencia away
zaragoza home
seville away
getafe home
villareal away
I can't wait to see Mou's face when the "Special One" wins nothing.
Yep. Beating both him and Cristina will be sooooooooooo nice
))
if mourinho is the "special one",Guardiola should be God!
btw i like your name.the great Zico!
Special needs one's face will be priceless!!
Quite tough it seems. Compare to ours:
Almeria home
Real Madrid away
Osasuna home
Real Sociedad away
Espanyol home
Levante away
Deportivo home
Malaga away
Last year we had it tougher- this season it's the other way round. Nice.
i just knew pathethetico will be early game for us
and pathetico at home
good
How much this time? 5? 6? 7???
do you kwon when its possible to buy tickets for the first home games? i wanted to visit barcelona and watch a match? is there a possibility that i get 2 seats next to each other?
i think with david villa and adriano we will look a lot better because we have speed no offense to ibra but he might need to be on the bench cause i have a very good feeling david villa will replace zlatan because of coments that it up to ibra off topic if we can sell toure we can sure ass hell sell zlatan no offese to zlatan he is barca material but not now we should win el classico and la la liga cl league every other trophy can wait
I'm looking forward to next season but before it starts I think we need 1 more signing. Either a DM or CM but I'd prefer to sign a creative CM as backup for Xavi/Iniesta and let Keita be the backup for DM because we were too defensive when Keita played as CM last year. We have 40mil left so Cesc won't be an option. I would like either Ozil who is a barca fan or Arteta who came from La Masia. Werder Bremen is willing to sell Ozil as they don't want to let him leave for free next year, I predict he would cost 20-25mil. Arteta I think would be 15-20mil. However it is fine to sign a DM instead as Messi can also cover CM and we can also promote Thiago.
GK: Valdes, Pinto
RB: Alves, Adriano
LB: Abidal, Maxwell
CB: Puyol, Pique, Milito, Henrique, Fontas
DM: Busquets, Keita
CM: Xavi, Iniesta, Arteta/Ozil, Thiago
RW: Messi, Jeffren
LW: Villa, Pedro
CF: Ibra, Bojan
Adriano is a left sided, left footed player. He's a natural LW but can play LB.
Oh and its obvious henrique is not gonna ever play for barca, and arteta is not an option as he's a first team player and he'll only be an emergency back-up.
Hope i can make it to this years classico
we will beat madrid whther away or home.mourinho has a point to prove that he can attack us and win like inter first leg
The only thing that can defeat us is a volcano so no worry for home or away.
we need fabregas so he can score from long range when crystinaldo wil be a left-back against us.
our iniesta only score golden goals once per year bcoz of not shooting enough
Actually, Adriano is two-footed and he can play right back (he has done so in Sevilla). Also, Pep has said in his interview that he would mainly be Alves' backup…
In that case, then its limiting his abilities. Adriano cannot be soley a backup he's too good for that
