I thought that barca used every underhand trick in the book against US - but because we lost, I was labelled whinger and bad loser. Might be pretty football but bloody awful characters. Not remotely interested in watching a Classico or whatever they call them. Cheats against other cheats - who is the best at it.
Same goes for the spanish National side. Get all the calls in their favour, it's bloody ridiculous. Barcelona are the team i hate the most (aside from Liverpool)
I think everyones beginning to see Barca for what they really are now, and they are very close to moving up in my table of hated clubs ( only 3 in it but as it stands it's 1st Spurs, 2nd United, 3rd Barca )
When they play well and fair they are a delight When they play act or have Busquets and Pedro on the field they are disgusting. Though Messi in fairness to him is not a diver and takes some bad punishment while rarely complaining.
Barca are boring to watch. If they didn't get so many decisions go for them, they would not be as successful as they are because teams could actually put tackles in. Rather watch a competitive game with both teams having a go than one team just passing around midfield boringly (and protected by the ref from any sort of tackle) for 10 mins before the odd piece of magic from Messi. Rather watch Stoke.
