Ronaldo is a class act, his goal scoring record speaks for itself but for whatever reason whenever it comes down to a big game like this or a tough champions league draw he never seems to get into it, I think he just tends to get marked out of the game.

Thats the difference between him and Messi, Ronaldo can't deal with being marked out, Messi still manages to find ways to make an impact on the game.

Can someone explain to me how that whining little st Ronaldo even gets on the pitch? He's terrible.
He was terrible tonight. What are you talking about?
Exactly. I cannot abide the bloke but he's a very talented footballer, end of. Since moving to Spain he's more or less running at a goal a game - obviously a pile of ste.


However, I think he does have an issue with lack of mental strength & struggles when things don't appear to be going his way. Not someone you'd back to drag an underperforming team to better things with any regularity through sheer force of ability or personality & that stops him joining the true greats of the game (Messi seems to have some difficulty with this as well).

I sincerely hope its not the case tonight. I missed out on last seasons 5-0 Barca win which was annoying. Predicting a 3-1 with atleast 3 handbag incidents.
Looks like I was right! 20/1 were the odds on my prediction. Told my mate to get on it but he didnt.

I encouraged someone to put money on Real whistlegetmecoat My only excuse is that Barca have been quite shakey on the road this season.

I'm doing equally as badly in a predictions league I'm in. Time to retire in disgrace methinks.

Barca have played 16 & gd is + 42
Real have played 15 & gd is +37
valencia are third with a GD of just 8

His record in spain maybe immense , but it is a little one sided

& he was well off his best last night , but Barca were terrific

Anyone else think they're becoming so common they're losing the magic?

We all know what's gonna happen in them as well.

Madrid will start really well, press Barca into mistakes, Barca will settle after 15-20, score a killer goal and then Madrid will kick them for the rest of the match. Hopefully there'll be a fight, especially if Pinto gets barged into.

Wouldn't mind seeing Valdez take a swift boot to the face, I can't stand the prick. Just got to hope for a good game and not a scrappy one though.
