Yeh I watched the game last night. Great to see, although I very much doubt it'll last.

 

[Darth Gogledd]

Only conceded 3!!! Wow.

 

[AH]

It's because they've got Xavi Torres, Silva, Suarez, Navas...*




*may not be THE Xavi, Torres, Silva, Suarez, Navas...

 

[Hatem Is A Geordie]

wtf?!?!

 

[Colly NUFC]

Maybe Ian Harte went back...

 

[DuD]

Riding their luck, untested etc

 

[Jonnyaiston]

*cough* generic, there's only 2 teams in la liga bollocks *cough*

 

[NufcBano]

They've beaten Madrid this year....unreal

 

[steviemac14]

I'm buzzing as I'm going to see Barca vs Lavante in December, I was thinking it would be a procession but its looking like it could be a big game now. Hopefully that will mean they'll put out all their stars too.

 

[aginairrr]

What score did it finish last night? Beating Villarreal away is brilliant!

 

[DuD]

We could beat Madrid and still be riding our luck...

 

[NufcBano]

We could beat Madrid and still be riding our luck...

very cynical.

 

[Vilsmeier-Haack Reaction]

Different table if it hadn't been for Kanoute's actions in the Sevilla/Barca game

3-0 I think.

What did he do?

 

[steviemac14]

What did he do?

He more or less threw a girls punch at Fabregas after Cesc had apparently called him a monkey or something. Fabregas has denied it, no doubt this will get swept under the carpet like the Marcelo incident last year. They need to clean up their game over there.

Different table if it hadn't been for Kanoute's actions in the Sevilla/Barca game

What did he do?

Barca got a penalty so Messi steps up to take but Kanoute made it his mission to see Messi was put off and hopefully miss it. Messi puts ball on spot Freddy kicks it away, yellow card. Messi respots ball, Freddy pokes Fabregas in the eye sparking mass brawl, red card. Messi respots, takes a decent placed but lightweight penalty which keeper manages to save and the game ended as a 0-0 draw

Surely that's partly Messi's fault then. Let the guy get himself sent off and then let someone else take the penalty!

Their average age is something like 31 and the combined value of transfer fees is very low.


Here is their 36 year old CB in action this season
