If I didn't know better I would say Monreal got paid for that yellow. Now where is the tinfoil?

We hadn't hD a touch at this point in 2010 or 2011 yet, we've got oceans more time on the ball and they are a lot more pedestrian.

On the flip side they did used to tire massively after 70 mins and with such a quality front 3 (compared to that team especially) they don't really need all XI going hell for leather from the off.

Atmosphere sounds pretty flat considering the light show


They have got one of the best forward lines in the history of the game, but I still don't think that this team is as good as the barca teams from a few years ago 8)

Giroud is setting the tone by not working hard enough and dropping deeper and deeper. They are comfortable on the ball and them having easy possession on the other side of the centre circle is ok, not if its on this side of the centre circle though which is what we are starting to allow.

Agreed. People are for some reason hell-bent on rewriting history to diminish that Barca and Spain side, but having been at that 2010 game they were unlike anything ever seen before.

Against Barca, you simply HAVE to score from such chances.
Oxlade is a joke. But it's ok as he will be on social media later tweeting himself whacking off into Messi's shirt :roll:

Giroud nodded it down, but nobody was there. Come on, keep up.
