The Official La Liga (Spanish Football) Thread
Discussion
Anybody else on here like watching a bit of Spanish football? Still lots of it on Sky
Barcelona are looking very very good again this season even though the team look like they are still trying to adjust to the new 3-4-3 formation Pep has been putting in. Cesc is the first midfielder in Barcelona history to score 4 goals in his first 4 matches and he is teaming up with Messi nicely. Tough life for him now isn't it? After 5 years without any trophies how many do you think he will win in 1 year at Barca? I think the Barca fans will grow to regard him as highly as Messi
Shouldn't rule out Madrid because Mourinho has built a cracking team over the last few transfer windows. The super cup match a few weeks ago shows they are pretty evenly matched

I live in Barca and the game is different in Spain as the top 2 are so much better than the others, it's not as much fun. You do get the odd upset, but there is a different feel to the game and it's more skillful and less franetic.
Going to Camp Nou is still a great feeling though, but it's not like an English atmosphere.
It's good to watch when Barca or Madrid are not thrashing someone, but it's a 2 team league.

I don't understand people who slate and speak negatively about La Liga.
There's some beautiful football played that the premier league doesn't offer at times.
The skill and absolute sheer class of Barcelona, quality of Real and there are other teams which ok, aren't going to challenge for the title but as we've seen already can draw with Barca/Real.
Who doesn't want to see Messi tear apart a defence? Or Xavi/Iniesta put a ball through the smallest of gaps?
I'll try and watch most spanish games if i'm in the house. Absolute class.
I think Barca will take the title this season and also the champions league. They're even stronger now with Fabregas.
I don't think Mourinho will be at Real at the end of the season.

Because Barcelona have been pathetic away, they haven't always been the team away as they are at home tho.
Iniesta was injured for a bit aswell and so was Puyol, not that he's one of the big names attacking wise.
Messi tonight. Great goal for the 2nd. Imagine him and Ronaldo in the same team.

Barca send me to sleep most of the time rather than excite me. I appreciate how good they are of course, the best team by a country mile. But because of that they're boring... the games against them are rarely competitive. Tonight's game as an example.
Poo heads.
Unfortunately for the rest of us Messi is young and the Barca team coming through look just as good.

Returning to the genius that is Messi.
Is he going to see out his playing career at FC Barca, or can you see him plying his trade (at or close to his brilliant best) at other club(s)?
If so, where and when?
I doubt he will ever ever leave Barca. They've helped him with a growth condition I believe, he will be with them forever I expect. Is he going to see out his playing career at FC Barca, or can you see him plying his trade (at or close to his brilliant best) at other club(s)?
If so, where and when?

Only PSG, City or Chelsea could afford him.Is he going to see out his playing career at FC Barca, or can you see him plying his trade (at or close to his brilliant best) at other club(s)?

He may end up where Pep ends up if he is going anywhere.
I think his loyalty is deeply routed to bara beyond the current boss though. they flew him over from argentina when he was young and paid for him to have medical treatment he needed. only reason I can see him leaving would be for a new challenge and league - the guy does not give a fk about money
