Champions League Round of 16 fixtures

[Sixpence]

Is Messi the finest footballer ever? haveing some banter on Facebook with a City fan who says he is.

I simply cannot comprehend that anyone has ever been better, so yes.

 

[Arruda]

see 2 reply's 2 different answers, I think Maradona and Zidan are up there with him.

How the hell can you put a player whose biggest achievement was playing for Borussia with a dreadful gpg ratio as a striker up there with Maradona and Messi? Go watch some football.

 

[Ish]

No surprise there. Uefalona once again getting their 'luck'.

I take it you call them Uefadrid on occasion as well?

 

[Ole's_toe_poke]

Uefalona

Is this the most unfunny and tedious sarcastic name ever?

His biggest achievement was winning the African Cup of Nations to be honest

 

[adexkola]

Take this to the Messi thread, or I'll start handing out infractions

Maybe. I hope I don't offend any United fans, though.

 

[Arruda]

No. Needs to play out of his comfort zone, go test himself in another league, different team, football and culture/language to prove that IMO. That's what I like about Ronaldo, he's owned the best two leagues and when he went over young, it was way different to his home land. Spain is the easy slot for South American footballers IMO.

Well, I don't think he'll do that so we'll never know how he'd cope. Analogous claims could be made for any of the other contenders for that title, namely in terms of consistency in providing insane levels of brilliance and pornographic amounts of assists and goals.

 

[LARulz]

I haven't seen Messi score from a run where he's taken on players for a while, seems to just score great finishes now. Haven't watched Barca much this season so may have missed a couple

I forgot about that. I still think it doesn't put him up there with Maradona and Messi.

 

[Ish]

Gerard Piques been a bit shit.

He should stop trying to play striker & concentrate on defending

 

[Proud_Lyon]

Clear yellow card there but ref didn't give it.

 

[Marcosdeto]

No surprise there. Uefalona once again getting their 'luck'.

has the ref redcarded nani?

oh, i forgot, that was real madrid

 

[Shane88]

Look at the Barca players, straight over to the ref like a shot.

 

[africanspur]

pfffft, Messi and Maradonna between them haven't won a Copa, while Zidan has won 2 ANCs.

 

[Arruda]

I missed these first few minutes of the game but I find that very hard to believe.

 

[Scrumpet]

Niang, Niang, Niang

 

[Verminator]

Here we go Milan corner

 

[buckooo1978]

Montelivo has impressed me

mobile with a good passing range

 

[Verminator]

Niang, Niang, Niang

A shrubbery!!

 

[Raees]

Lee Dixons glasses, WTF.

Career suicide.

 

[Rado_N]

Barca will score another then Niang will score in injury time to send Milan through.

 

[Count Orduck]

Christ this Niang chap is abysmal.

Milan will have a player sent off this match, almost guaranteed.

 

[Wowi]

Can Milan even put out a team in the next game if they somehow win this?

 

[KM]

Christ this Niang chap is abysmal.

Milan will have a player sent off this match, almost guaranteed.

He's just 18 and did well in the first leg. Harsh to call him abysmal.

 

[Damien]

3-0, Villa.

 

[Scrumpet]

If only Milan had Tony Watt up front.

 

[rcoobc]

Ez

 

[Kevin]

Barcaaaaaaaaaa

 

[Sixpence]

This one is done.

 

[Marcosdeto]

3-0

milan debacle

 

[ha_rooney]

Brilliant.

 

[Proud_Lyon]

Goooooolazoooo Villa!!!

 

[Count Orduck]

Definitely game over now.

 

[Beachryan]

Great goal, comical defending by the full back though.

 

[Ish]

Villa

 

[Castia]

Lovely.

 

[Arruda]

Happy for Villa, always adored that player.

 

[Verminator]

Have Milan got an outfield player in goal?

 

[ghaliboy]

Barca through!
