Ironically him going it alone was him at his best. I don't understand why he doesn't try those runs more often, incredible close control. There were 3 occasions tonight, perhaps less, where he had 10 yards of grass in front of him and he just ran at it like a tank. He would drop men twice his size on the floor without even touching them

edit: Carlos Darwin Quintero had the first one for Santos. He should have been more selfish there.
Yeah, that's what I thought I remembered. Credit to Chelsea for that. Even though he can like Jason says, there was no way Messi was going to make a fool out of Chelsea's defence tonight: they had enough of them behind the ball, after all. lol
He was my favorite Sporting player. He came to us just a few years after I really started following soccer so I practically grew up watching him play. What an amazing player.
Cool!
You didn't watch Libertadores match Corinthians x Deportivo Tachira by any chance?
It was 4 nil to Corinthians and they got a penalty. The crowd asked for Liedson to take, so he did. He hit the post and then scored haha.

6 nil. Biggest score difference in the tournament so far.
Cruz Azul won 4-1 against Táchira and are qualified for the next round too. Congrats, Verano.

Humberto Suazo scores the first one for Monterrey. He should have been sent off for a dangerous challenge five minutes ago. :/
Loved that moment. Puyol is one of the few genuinely likeable guys left on Barcelona.You forgot Stoke.
Did anybody else enjoy the moment when Puyol showed JT his sore hand (which he later had bandaged) and JT just squeezed it. I laughed quite hard. Also, Puyol took it quite well. I do like Puyol.
Fuck yeah Suazo! We're gonna miss him on the next game, though. ):
I always get tense at Santos v Rayados matches, they're one hell of a team and all of Monterrey wins against them take a lot of effort, even after Benitez they still have a great attack.
Agree, it was foolish of him to do that. He was insanely lucky to not getting sent off. x__x

He is awesome. A true captain, something that we will lack once he retires. He yells at everyone and everything. :lol

Hércules Gómez > Benítez, though I don't know what the fuck he has been thinking tonight.

Club Deportivo Humberto Suazo 2 - 0 Santos
The sad thing about this is that Vucetich is gonna play catenaccio in the 2nd leg and it's gonna be a shitty final because of that.

No I didn't but its nice to hear that the fans appreciate him just as much as many Sporting fans.
They'll charge money for a squad/kits update, typical EA.
Nice record. I guess he'll start next wednesday.
I actually think this is a positive. Rather then a full price new disc, they are updating FIFA 12 with Euro tournaments etc
its not just names and kits, its like the old euro games, so own modes etc and possibly improvements to animations etc etc.
its 16 pounds which is cheaper than what a brand new full disc would have been, and by quite a margin i think.
It's a step in the RIGHT direction if you ask me rather than a cash in.
"The expansion pack gives you the opportunity to compete for the EURO 2012 title. But players won't be restricted to just the teams that successfully qualified for the tournament - all 53 UEFA member national teams are present, as are the 8 official stadiums that will host the championship in Poland and Ukraine this summer. "
One of my best FM buys...
if im reading that right, you paid 140k and got 33 million
a winnar is you!
Sorry, I shrunk it a bit too much.. re-uploaded at a higher res. Got $30million and a 50% sell-on clause!
massive post count today but luckily it took me straight here,
Yeah. Chivas do need to make some signings. While they're at it sell Fierro, Torres and Chaton/Fabian.
The first three need another year in a youth system. Fabian needs to move to Europe if he wants national team call ups.
To be fair to Messi he was playing fairly well till he got that groin strain just before the goal, in fact it was because he was still trying to run that off that he gave the ball away which led to the goal.
I dont think Barcelona have much to beat themselves up over. That was a very one sided game with Chelsea punishing a rare Messi error for the goal.
Nope, no new animation or gameplay changes.
Own modes? You can create a tournament in the game already. They're just updating squads and kits and well adding some stadiums.
I would rather get a complete game (XBLA/PSN) with new features in gameplay.

Err.. Mourinho era, Rijkaards Barca won 2-1 in Stamford Bridge (Motta own goal, Terry own goal and Eto'o scoring the winning header)

fair enough
ESPN got it wrong then. Perhaps they meant Pep's era.
Well that's pretty stupid if true from espn, not like Barca get to play in Stamford Bridge 4 times a season under Pep. Lol 2nd time they were there.
They should have scored 3 or 4, which is why the tears are so salty. :9
I thought Messi played really well last night. He was slicing through Chelsea's defense at will.
Since it's in a totally separate area now, I'll link this thread in here:

Forbes: 2012 Most Valuable Soccer Teams and Highest Earning Players
Money well spent.
That link jogged my memory; I had forgotten that Barca's path to the '06 title was filled with so many good defensive displays. Barca played a match that ended nil-nil in both the quarterfinal and semifinal stages. (Arsenal topped that by playing a third match, in the first knockout round, that also ended nil-nil). Of course no one really cares how they won once it was added to their collection...
Dani Alves proves he is a cunt

TLDR;
Fan ran into messi in team hotel in London. Had messi shirt wanted signature. Messi was going to do it and got pen, Alves went nuts going NO NO NO NO and then all the barca players came out and started getting all rowdy
WTF
FUCK BARCA

It's The Sun.
In before Sun is a trash mag etc etc, white knights coming to rescue.
It seems there was some sort of a "clash" but they might've been drunk. Who knows, who cares, that's stupid. Alves is a cunt, nothing new here.
are you saying sun is not trash?
I don't care.
