    Great game last night. So many wasted chances on our part. But really, our team is dead tired. Really, really tired. I hope that they will have a very good rest before the game against Sociedad.

    What is it with Messi and Penalties against Valencia??? Maybe Cesc should take it if we get one in the 2nd leg! ;)

    honestly messi is not lucky at PK's, maybe we should hire crissy to take our penalties or el capital to take our PK's using his head… just kidding guys, :)

      u kno we could always take an indirect PK… like we used to take most of our corners and free kicks… just pass it off to someone else… its allowed, you know… pass it off the spot sideways and someone runs in from the edge of the box and smashes it in :P

      or we could just let the best player in the world do his thing

    Just amazing Puyol double roulette!!! He should play as a striker in the next game…

    we had our chances to win, especially in the second half. but the tie is not over, there is still another leg to go in a weeks time, hopefully we will be more fresh by then! :)

    btw, ive said it before, but i really cant believe how many pull-backs the opposition teams are doing to our team when they get beaten on the turn or on the dribble… all the shirt and arm pulling is getting a bit out of control… i hope the refs start protecting the players who are victim to this a bit more. same with the late tackles

    thats why i cant stand trolls who complain of a dive here n there, or now with pinto's hand ball… ok some calls get missed against us… but we also dont get EVERYTHING our way! there are so many card-worthy (and therefore eventual sending-off) offences that dont get seen

    not really worried about the result, next destination is camp nou, so its in our hands and we tied the 1st leg… 0-0 in home we are still going to the finals, and it's impossible for our guys not to score in our home. :)

    so long as our coach continue to honor his feelings for this season which is to play 3/4/3 we will never win convincingly again.he of all people should know that Valencia was the first team to expose his flopped 3/4/3 but his ego will not let him change.we may win the cl and kings cup because it's played on away goal basis and you are not going to play every team in the competition but we will not win the league

    Absolutely unlucky! Hit the post, miss the pen, and an offside beautiful goal.
    We will be back in another day!

    i know messi's pk was pretty bad..but
    isnt there a rule that the goalkeeper cant come off his line ??
    or something along those lines? PLEASE REPLY

    • pedrito says:
      February 2, 2012 at 10:42 AM

      if GK can goes beyond the lines, i'm sure they will bring the ball to the penalty and throw to goal.
      this is not handball game!!
      hahahha

    • minges86 says:
      February 2, 2012 at 10:09 PM

      yes thats a rule…the gk needs to stay on his line during a pk…the ref can make it be retaken if he thinks the keeper is infringing… but i mean, all keepers who are good at pk saves do move forward a bit.. it happens

    REMEMBER, if it is 2-2 in Camp Nou, then Barça are OUT.

    In pep’s first season where we won everything, we had depth in terms of squad n players were fighting to impress, bt after that pep resorted to small squad which has gone a long way to affect us now. Also hardly will a player leave on loan that will be called back under pep cos to him the player has no chance again if not they would have been called when we lacked depth. No hard feelings bt we all agree madrid are stronger n are eagering to close the gap on us all bcos they have depth with players of different plays which make mou utilise them to change tatics. Pep also doesnt have much faith in the B if not tello,dos santos n co wil have more playing time now there is fatigue n small squad. Pep better help the team for the team pay back well n better.

      you must be a real madrid supporter… or maybe u were dropped at birth… actually im gonna go with both….
      either that or u r a glory hunter… and when barca aint performing as well as the glory days, u lash out and say nonsense!!!! please i think everyone in this website would prefer not to see ur comments!!!!!

          I am barca supporter.
          but this season, barca will win nothing because of pep.
          he underestimated other teams.
          what a crap!

          • Brian Mutua says:

            Barca has already won club world champion and euro super cup this season.
            if thts the only thing barca will win this season… then i will be satisfied… what team do u know that starts the 2nd half of the season with 2 trophies already in the bag and still in the hunt for 3 more…. with a reasonable chance of claiming them…
            stop being such a spoilt spot and support ur team when they are down instead of criticizing…
            (if u were an Arsenal supporter, i would agree with u 100%)

    I think our squad doesn't seem to have tall and strong players, we need some type of players like Toure, Henry, Eto, Gudjohansen and we doesnt have that atm, it seemed so weird seeing the game yesterday, we had all small players on the pitch expept Pique, Abidal

    • SemirSpahic says:
      February 2, 2012 at 10:07 AM

      i don't want to be harsh but, what is your argument, what would that change? we scored a goal from a corner-kick(with head) and were pretty good from set-pieces this season, and we conceded a goal from a quick attack when our players couldn't keep up with a fast winger(tall players are usually slower)…you can't just say 'buy two tall players' and it will be all good, or two fast players and it will be better…football isn't that simple.

    Valencia deserved this draw?????

    When i watched the highlights again, Barca could've won 4:1 or 5:1
    We really need to take our chances.

    Without being respectful to Madrid but i can't remember a game before last classico where they wasted so many chances as we do in every game since new year.

    It would be better if Barca gets 1 strong and tall player in the midfield, would be a big help.

    Remember Chelsea v Barca game 1-1, we had players like Eto, Toure who had physical strenght, if we played Chelsea with those players that night in 2009, we would get smashed, the balance is almost gone. We use too much B-players, it's not good, we have to buy some world class striker like in the old days, mix the youth players with world class players and they learn from each other, thats how it always been, dont use B-team players so much pep! they dont know what to do in the right situations because they lack experience.

  19. Jules says:
    February 2, 2012 at 2:59 PM

    I don't like that this year we look too similar to the season of 09/10, lack of deepth in the squad, Cesc is pissing me off sometimes, he think he play the ''right way'' but he doesnt' that what makes me angry, just because you was a youth player in Barca DOESNT MEAN YOU KNOW EVERYTHING! Start watching Xavi and Iniesta, he's too much focused to impress Messi.
    We need a new Striker who make his own decisions like Villa, our strikers look like dead wood, Pedro, Sanchez.. disappointing with them this season, they look so weak in the attack like a RM and LM
