Was looking forward to seeing Neymar and Messi in the same side

please, I have my reasons for it but... · « **Reply #2 on:** August 18, 2013, 05:42:35 pm »

Watched Valencia vs Malaga last night and have to say for two top teams in the league to have such a drop in quality compared to the past few seasons is shocking and reflects poorly on the league.

Hopefully Atletico gives more of a fight this year than last one.

The goals were nice in Real Sociedad and Bilbao games last night.

Ridiculously good goal

Xavi -> Fabregas -> Alexis

Fantastic goal

Iniesta and Neymar bench warmers

Any idea why alves is wearing 22 instead of 2? Thought he was number 2

Camarero25 · « **Reply #15 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:14:20 pm »

This is embarrassingly easy.

Xxavi · « **Reply #16 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:15:13 pm »

Too easy.

Favorite number of his? Was he 22 at Seville?

Pedro in 7 now

I think he is wearing it "for Abidal".

Also, Pedro is #7 now =)

Vrey good friend of Abidal (he had 22), out of respect for him he chose 22.

I am liking what I see from Alexis Sanchez, except for his usual falling to the ground and injury faking. Serie A is supposedly a more physical league, but I cannot believe how easily he hits the deck.

Butter Keks · « **Reply #21 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:19:31 pm »

The sooner all the clubs get a fair share of the TV revenue the better. Levante have spent £264.000 so far this season and lost Iborra to Sevilla. Sad to see so many clubs without a penny.

GarraCharrua · « **Reply #22 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:21:04 pm »

alexis sanchez has always been a diving dirty sanchez.

3-0. Woo the competitive La Liga is back!..

Seriously though Barcelona are going to be back to their best this season I feel.

Absurdly good

Great stuff with a beer on a Sunday Night

Looking a lot like the Barca under Pep again.

Don't worry Levante. Iniesta and Neymar will be on soon to fight for their places back.

Hoenheim · « **Reply #35 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:28:53 pm »

Coutinho had a boner seeing that pass

Sir Psycho Sexy · « **Reply #36 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:29:23 pm »

Double figures coming up (unless barca tale pity and piss about near the end of the game)

la liga is such a great league!

Xxavi · « **Reply #38 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:29:31 pm »

Good pass and a good finish from Pedro. I am liking what I am seeing from Pedro so far.

Xxavi · « **Reply #39 on:** August 18, 2013, 06:31:56 pm »

The best thing for me so far is the fact that goals came from everywhere, not only Messi. I am seeing team game. This is what Barca lacked last season, at times.
