In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!
internet for colts vs ravens, telly for barca espanyol
I don't know the answer, please enlighten me.. How many penalties did Barcelona get this season??
Dafuq happened to him? He's been below par for over a season now
You know that people on here believe that Barcelona get favored at home and get many penalties. That's what I'm saying. You've argued against it a lot so you should know. What you're doing is baiting the same argument again but it won't matter. You're still gonna get the same answers from people who says these things. Either they really think that and won't change their minds or they sort of think that so they type that shit out to annoy others.
Actually he's been great this season; I think he meant that compared to Xavi-Iniesta-Busquets he's still the "worst" of the midfield.
2nd highest in goals and assists for Barca this season.
Messi scored his 2nd penalty tonight, and compared to Ronaldo with 4 and Falcao with 6, he is still someway behind.
Edit:
Bein sport are doing a spot on the Ballon D'Or, and they say that Ronaldo is 14.44% effective for Real Madrid taking everything into account i.e. goals, assists, number of minutes played, number of shots he has had over the season. Messi is at 28.75% effectiveness for the same criteria.
Barca have equalled another record in that they have scored in the last 36 matches a minimum of one goal. The record that was equalled is from the 1940s.
I must have missed that.
Striker for Espanyol has done well
What a move by Barça...
What a fecking ball by Messi and the official gets it totally wrong.
I wasn't after a count. The actual numbers were irrelevant to my point. I was just telling Danny to not waste his time basically. If I know someone is a creationist I don't go mentioning evolution to them. Nothing good comes of it.
Some ridiculous flowing moves by Barcelona in the 2nd half... it's unreal at times.
Pedro being denied a hat-trick goal, twice, wrongfully for offside 
Pedro being denied a hat-trick goal, twice, wrongfully for offside
Some terrible decisions from both officials tonight. That last Espanyol attack was nowhere near offside.
Should have left them to the advantage. Bad refereeing again.
Messi hits the bar
great free kick
That lob from Messi to Alba...
Referee bottled the red card there.
Blatant two-footed tackle on the man... yellow card. Hah. Spanish refs
yep . I first thought he overhit it, but it was off by centimetres
has a team ever won la liga undefeated?
Hence my question.. Why would anybody get that impression this season when Barcelona has been given very few penalties this season, and in fact denied many legitimate ones..
ft 4-0

Because they don't watch Barcelona much and they do watch Manchester United a lot and Barcelona get more penalties, usually, and usually one or two of them over the course of the season is because of diving and they remember that shit like their own birthday. In the process they completely neglect all the penalties that weren't given.
Barcelona and Real Madrid are two of the most offensive teams in the world. In Spain every handball is a foul. They should, statistically, get a lot of penalties.
So that's 36 goals and 9 assists in 27 games for Messi

Lionel Messi has hit the post 11 times this season #fcblive 7 times for Barcelona - 4 times for Argentina [via @messi10stats]

Time for Atletico, without their 2 best players. Lets see if Adrian can kick on after his wonderstrike before the break.
Are those stats for internationals as well? I really don't like it if it has become a thing to lump in your national record with the club record. Those should be kept separate.
Another official statistic for Barcelona confirmed:
Longest scoring run in the League:
36 games in 1942–43 to 1943–44 season.
They will beat this record should they beat Malaga on the 13th of January. Having scored 61 goals in only 18 matches, it is very possible that not only do they have a chance of matching or even beating Real Madrids scoring record, but also the points record.
No only club, just the twitter bit about woodwork included Argentina stats.
Messi 2012/13
- club: 27 apps (25 starts), 36 goals, 9 assists (3 pen./2 free-kicks)
- country: 6 apps (6 starts), 5 goals, 0 assists (0 pen./2 free-kicks)
Ait. Cheers. So he got 2 assists today then?
Hence my question.. Why would anybody get that impression this season when Barcelona has been given very few penalties this season, and in fact denied many legitimate ones..
Particularly over the course of these past 5 seasons, the club gets very few penalties considering how much possession they have in & around the opponents box. Throw in Messi who is like a weeble that is routinely knocked, kicked & fouled and is denied many penalties. I'm always surprised when a penalty is finally awarded but there are far more that are never whistled
Reminds me of the handicapping they do for horse racing with added weights
Bloody hell, Atletico don't give that many chances away do they!
Ric Flair would have been proud of the way he sold that low blow.
That was a bit funny..
