Spanish Football 2011-2012

Why is Diarra even playing? He looks really weak/nervous on the ball.

Reminds me of Chelsea's Mikel.

Don't think that challenge warranted a yellow, wasn't really late, wasn't nasty or bad, wasn't cynical..
Messi even tried to pull out of it but standing leg slipped.
 
Great fun so far, once you look past the usual theatrics. I think it's worth pointing out that Barcelona's total football has so far been the product of sweet FA. One amazing run by Messi and a great finish from Sanchez, pretty much nothing to do with anyone else at all :p

Want Barcelona to score next then any result but a draw!

I've noticed a bit more pro-maureen commentary from Sky so far, it's the usual thing watching these games though. Everything any player does results in a mass fapping from the commentary team, falling over each other to come up with the better metaphor for what they're watching.

Edit: And the speed at which Real Madrid can move the ball from back to front, or when they are counter attacking, is just stupid. Absolutely stupid. I'm not sure it would be any faster if Casillas just tried to hoof it straight to Ronaldo. So, so quick. They've impressed me more so far, though Ronaldo missing a sitter and generally again being pretty anonymous isn't so good.

Only sub I would make would be taking Ronaldo off. Hes been poor and rather selfish. Real could have stuck 2-3 in quite easily if they went for the less selfish option. Real are looking very very good though. Barca don't know what to do at the moment.
 
Gerry Adams (I think?) is one of the commentators and he's massively biased to Barca, he fawns over them every week

Ronaldo does himself no favours in these games, shooting when passes are on, not working as hard as his team mates etc.
