I saw Real vs Valencia last night.

Real Madrid are looking serious this season, their midfeild passing was top notch, there so exciting to watch!
vamos argentina
F.C.BARCELONA
 
yeah man. The first half was "orgasmic" lol. Marcelo did a fantastic job locking down Joaquin. You saw Metzelder's miss in front of goal? lol.. Its in the highlight video below. We all now know why Metz is a defender.

Check the Valencia vs Real Madrid highlights featuring Ray Hudson commentary. Dude is the best commentator out period! He said a few gems including:

"The defense of Valencia looking like the Bermuda Triangle."

"What do you say.. man.. thats a bad goal celebration.. but he is an absolutely angelic footballer sent from the heavens."

and my personal favorite:

"This is the best example of a public execution this side of North Korea." - LOLOL

barca needs eto'o badly.
henry is a great player but they signed him to score goals and hes been very underwhelming thus far....even though he didnt play against valladolid. does anyone know why?

these injuries are really hurting the teams chemistry.

^ Henry was left off the team sheet due to Achilles tendonitis (left leg.) I think Barca are missing Deco most of all. Eto'o will certainly improve finishing.. something that has been inconsistent so far.
REAL MADRID
 
Spotlight Game of Round 11: Sevilla vs. Real Madrid at the Sanchez Pizjuan. Match will be played at 5pm Eastern. The match will be televised on Gol TV.

Sevilla:

Palop; Alves, Fazio, Dragutinovic, Crespo; Keita, Poulsen, Jess Navas, Adriano; Luis Fabiano, and Frederick Kanout.


Real MadridWHO TO LOOK FOR:Offense:

Luis Fabiano (Sevilla Striker): Kanoute usually gets the nod as the most dangerous striker in the Sevilla roster. However, Luis Fabiano is in super form. He has been deadly, scoring from freekicks, penalties, and in open play.

Robinho (Real Madrid Winger)Defense:

Daniel Alves (Sevilla RB) the counter attack, take certain set pieces, and cross into the box for Kanoute/Fabiano.

Marcelo (Real Madrid LB)ing XI at the LB position - beating out Gabriel Heinze. He locked down one of the best Wingers in the game: Joaquin (vs. Valencia.) He is the youngest, and least experienced member of the Real Madrid back 4 so he'll have to show up.

Tchau!
 
The first one was a belter. The second one was crap defending. We need one by the half.
REAL MADRID
 
Referee has allowed this to turn into a death match. I feel like im watching WWE. The yellow cards will continue to fly. Our shooting has been poor.
REAL MADRID
 
Basically lol. Couple minutes of the first half was nothing but "The Peoples Elbow's" being done to each other.

It might be time to look ahead to the next match blaze because Sevilla is in control......
Tchau!
 
NEVER! I want at least one point from a trip to the Sanchez Pizjuan. That damn place is cursed. Schuster better have a damn Capello style speech prepared for this.


at least let Ruud score a goal to help my fantasy team... :lol:

Thats Fabiano's usual self.. Hes like the Inzaghi of La Liga. But, like I said in prematch analysis.. Hes on fire lately.

Edit: Sevilla's plan to stop Robinho: Operation Linebacker.
