They are starting to look really good again, samuel etoo just scored his fourth goal in this game in just 45 min it´s now barca 4 - valladoilde 0
 
They don't defend in Spain, nothing new.
 
barcelonas goal difference is 32 - 3 that´s a good goal difference so early in the season.
 
Marquez is a top defender, been a big part of Barcelona improving because he wins the ball so much in front of the back four. Pique is good at taking the ball out of defence as well but Marquez has been brilliant at starting counter attacks.
 
Did you see Real Madrid defending today?
Pathetic!!! They were all over the place - it happens when we are playing 15 a side game in 7-a-side ground!
 
Some of the defending has been shocking.

But Barca are the best team in Europe right now.
 
Barca have played some lovely stuff, but its all been so very easy, Valladolid have just watched as the balls been played around and past them. Really poor stuff. Madrid played rancidly and won earlier with 10 men for a significant period. I don't think there's any doubt about which league is strongest these days, English or Spanish. Not for those watching both regularly anyway
 
Valladolid keeper been any good at all? Thats Asenjo, the young keeper we were linked with recently I think.
 
Yeah I was impressed with the keeper, score line would've been a lot more if it weren't for him.
 
If Barca maintain their form they will be unstopable basically.

Eto'o is back to his best which is massive. Xavi is in the form of his life and they have the best player in the world in Lionel Messi. It's fantasy football from Barca but they await some big tests. December will truely test them and we'll find out just how good they are.

For now though they are the finest sight in football, if Henry played like he did 2 or 3 years ago he would have had a hat trick tonight.
 
Certainly don't want to meet these in the CL until the absolute latest if possible.
 
Valladolid have always been a poor side, Real stuffed 7-0 with a second string side not too long ago. Good result after the mid week training match with Basle though, they didn't out any effort in unti Messi and Eto'o came on. I think Barca could stop scoring as many goals soon as Guardiola's tried a few different formations catching sides off guard recently but he's seems to sticking to a formula with Messi setting up Henryor Ento'o running in from the othr wing. A good side will definatly see there is two passes they should cut off.
 
Hopefully they beat those cnuts Madrid to the title. Good to see Pep Guardiola doing well as manager too, he seems he has good principles as a manager. What a player he was
